Dear users,
The trading engine is currently stopped due to the recent volatility and the fact that we exhausted our funds on Bitstamp in this critical moment.
We are waiting for new deposit to hit our Bitstamp account, after which we will resume the trades.
have a good day

You do know that this is going to happen over and over and over again when the market has some volatility? That outtage just cost me $8000 in profits and I'm sure many lost even more...just not acceptable. You guys need a better system with your site.
Feel free to post any suggestion.
We will pay you if they make sense.
Otherwise just stop talking nonsense.

I have an suggestion

Switch to a market maker fee structure on BitFinex and increase the Bitstamp fee/decrease the Bitfinex fee.
This should encourage users to use BitFinex and limit orders instead of only using Bitstamp liquidity and market orders.
This should reduce the friction in your cash flow management and you should become less dependent on Bitstamp.
Just a suggestion
