Hi Bajawah

Thank you for the insight - yes, it was clever.
The orders were sent to crypsty but stayed there in the queue forever, or they were only partially executed. As a result the wallet at haas did not match the actual status up there at the programmed time for the next signal detection-

I think I better switch to another pair and/or exchange - this is a headache -any suggestion of a good candidate to start with ?- the goal is not making great profits (yet) but putting the machine to work seamlessly by trying the different indicators available.
Cheers

Pick a pair that has super high volume and swings in price ( ignoring DOGE ). I would say DRK, but thats just madness right now... lol

Sort by volume, look at charts and go from there. Best profit I find is when the price just sin waves horizontally for a while.

Long time thread lurker first time poster.

I have been getting more and more frustrated with some of the changes in this new version. I am probably doing something silly so I figured before it get's worse maybe I should ask. For the example I bring up lets assume we are using 2 bots. One on btc-e and one on bitfinex and lets also assume we are using a trade value of 3 btc.

My issue's are with placing and pulling orders. The current max timer value for an order to be left open seems to be 10 minutes (I say this cause the UI won't accept a value larger than that for me). In my opinion this sometimes isn't long enough to allow for the entire order to get filled. So you run into one of two scenarios. Your order gets half filled then pulled which leads to the bot getting permanently stuck because if he sold .20 btc out of 3btc it now only has 2.8 btc left and it isn't keeping track of that so it just throws endless error after error that the current available wallet value isn't right.

Only way I have found to get the bot unstuck is to force a buy or sell command or manually change the trading value (to a value of $totaltrade - $filledportion) and then change it back after the trade is successful. Both aren't the best solutions due to the current bot setup because it requires console access.

I guess my point here is it needs to be tracking how much of the order was filled so that it doesn't still try and trade the full amount after it would also be nice to be able to adjust that time above 10 mins (unless i'm clearly missing a case where a bunch of attempted buy orders not getting filled is a bonus). Perhaps this will get fixed when the split order command returns. Maybe I should be using more bots with a smaller trading value so it doesn't take so long to fill orders?

This seems like a pretty silly one. I can't really complain though even with the bots getting stuck they are still up a few hundred fiat dollars. Just frustrating to return to check the bot progress a day later and realize its been trying to sell 3 btc's 32 times but one of the random orders got 1% filled and stuck the bot.

I have never tried using anything more than 10min, so I can't comment on that.

But, to fix your other problem, use percentage trade instead of a fixed value.

That way, if it doesn't fill all the way, it doesn't get stuck.
