Hi

Can anyone help me with the following questions? (I've only just purchased the software, so I am not yet sure about things)

1. Once I've setup my bot and used auto setup to generate the settings, will redoing auto setup on a daily basis help the bot or should I leave it alone.

2. If my bot places an order which doesn't complete in time for the bot, should I cancel it so the bot can use the coins or ignore it (since if I wait long enough the order will probably be fulfilled eventually).

Thanks!

1 - Depends heavily on the type of indicator. Something like a high/low indicator would benefit from that or just manually moving it.

2 - This is the bane of all things. Depending on your trade amount type, the exchange, and the cancel order insurance the answer is... maybe. For things like Cryptsy you are kinda just boned because order just sit there forever. On BTCe BTC/USD I never have any issues.

You run the risk of the bot trying to buy at 10, then the order sitting because you have all your coins allocated to that position and it can never do anything until you fix it. Especially if the price never comes back to 10.

Not using Cryptsy, using 'all in' or 'percentage' for your trade amount and 'cancel order insurance' helps this heavily.

I have really grown to hate Cryptsy...

Thanks Bajawah, that's a big help, your advice is very much appreciated.

I've moved some funds from Cryptsy to BTCe and I am seeing what happens.

It really comes down to API quality, and volume. It is possible to get dead trades on BTCe, but the volume is so much higher than Crapsy that the chance is a lot lower. I have not compared the API.

im really wondering why we, People that only have beginnerversion, cant use storsi indicator.
i think its essential. why ist not in all verions ?

Personally when I had the beginner license I would have rather had a dynamic stop-loss. So it's a "to each is own" situation.

Guess you have to draw the line somewhere? lol
