Anyone's cex.io bots making money?

Yes, I made 4% over the last week.   However this coming week who knows?   I've been out of the game for a couple days as I rebuilt my bot and liquidated my GHS.   Now it is buying back in a little bit higher.

Being able to write my own bot and run it is the major attraction to CEX.io as it is hard to be profitable just by mining.  

That's why you do both, even a minor profit is still a profit.

What have you used to write your bot btw?

It is in Python.  Not a language of choice for me, but there was already a working reinvesting bot in the CEX.io forums and I rebuilt that into what I wanted very quickly.   I'm slowly cleaning it up, but I built in 3 different bots in it and the third one I've modified many time.   The first two bots were losers.  

I don't have any plans to share my bot though.   That can be a huge amount of pain and I expect to keep in a state of constant tweaking.   Frankly, I think any bot that is just shared, probably isn't worth much.  

That's just what I did to grow my Ghs over my first month of cexio.

Bot v1 sells all BTC & NMC for GHS every hour
Bot v2 sells % of NMC and % of BTC every hour
Bot v3 is being fine-tuned to be distributable for easy git pull so cexio mining newbies can reinvest with no effort
Bot v4 might do something like only sell by placing orders just above/below the price at time of sale, who knows.

It's pretty much usable so if anyone wants it PM me
