anyone actively using this atm with good experiences? gonna try it out soon. Looks great. Was looking into cryptotrader but this bot seems a good alternative and its free 
I'm using cryptrade which is free and works with the candles stored at cryptotrader (but with no backtesting) at cex.io using the exact same EMA settings gekko uses by default, and that's working out well. 0.55BTC being flipped between GHS and BTC has grown to 0.6 in under a week
BUT an instance of gekko doing simulated trading alongside it is (theoretically) making more, athough it's hard to count what with the mining that also occurs @ cex. Now that gekko-localdb can trade, I'll be switching over to it anyminutenow.
Here's about 3 days of gekko simulating trading:
Code:
2014-01-23 21:43:31 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) original simulated balance: 0.58611 BTC
2014-01-23 21:43:31 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) current simulated balance: 0.62616 BTC
2014-01-23 21:43:31 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) simulated profit: 0.04005 BTC (6.83275%)
2014-01-23 21:43:31 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) current simulated balance: 0.62616 BTC
2014-01-23 21:43:31 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) simulated profit: 0.04005 BTC (6.83275%)
cryptrade logs differently so the best I got from that is:
Code:
2014-01-23T22:16:17.819Z - verbose: updatePortfolio: { btc: 0.6083721, ghs: 0.00034388 }
and here's 2ish weeks in GHS. Obviously, pay attention only to the peaks. Methinks a little too twitchy.
So you are using the cryptrade for real trading right now? Let me know if the profit reporting is wrong (though note you have to set slippage level yourself, was added a couple of days ago). Though the implementation DEMA is not 100% the same at CT compared to Gekko's version.
