I sure hope they go back a respectable date.  Say, the day they opened the Pre-sale.  That would cover their concern of bleeding from Ether Accounts

my best addition to all this;

One setting that works in one market will not work in another when the market changes.  Looking at Bitcoin charts sometimes seems like just lines at times.  But there is something more to them.  They are patterns.  When learning how to use the bot it is about learning how to use the indicators.  When and which ones to use for what the market conditions are.  I'm no wizard at this.  A good trader is someone who can see behind all these numbers & Indicators

-learn how the bot program works
-learn what the indicators do (the important one) 
 come up with a learning strategy.  .01 bitcoin account is good at this.  Work with one indicator and fully understand how it reacts with price
 movements.
-have a collection of strategies that work in different markets.  Spot a market then employ your strategy.  There are all kind of markets but i think there are 3 main ones.  Up, sideways, and down.  (Notice I am just a novice.  I'm still all new to this stuff)  Thats when you graduate and become successful trader.

 
My trading have been put on hold till Steph finishes up with his back-testing.  I too am on the side of 'No new features to spend more time polishing program up'  It will take us years to master the tools he's given  us.

A side question;
How did everyone do on Sunday's Flash crash?  I been out of the market with my coins in my computer.  I slept through it so missed it completely.  Pretty amazing.  Wish I caught just half of that crash  Wink

I have faith in me learning how to trade.  My first coin I brought I am very happy how it happened.

Re: Butter Bot!: New Bitstamp, BTC-E, and MtGox EMA Trading Platform

how does one disable the thresholds so Butter will buy right on the crossover?  Not buy 2 ticks after the crossover?  Its very hard to find a good EMA to start with when things are trading 2 ticks after each buy and sell

@Stephan,

Could you please write a little bit about how the safeties work?

I have tried looking them up in trading dictionaries but I am not able to find what "RoofOut" means etc.

I presume it is when the signal turns 90 degrees to fall, the bot would sell out before the signal reached the base line.  Is this correct?

Thank you
No. I don't think thats how the 'RoofOut' works.  I just looked over the Indicator.  It looks more like its a 'Limit Sell Order'

Notice in the static Roofout it asks for a price while the Dynamic Roofout asks for a percentage above the buy price.  That tells me it works oppisite of how a stop loss does.

Roof Out would be used to secure profits in a gaining trade.  Since we can't know for sure how high a price will gain in a trade some like to limit their outcome by selling early to secure a profit.

Nice improvements   I really like the additional info on the "Trade Bot List"

I've been quite for I have not been using things till the Benchmark Tool goes live.  Waiting for that  Grin

Keep up on the good work

I, like others, was running the new version and the old version at same time since the new seemed to be lacking some features the old did well.  Last night at midnight the old stopped working, won't update from exchanges.  anyone else having this problem?

I did contact support but figured I'd check community too.
Yes  this is happening to me also.  Maybe the exchanges have changed something in the API.  Simple trade bot is reading my wallet amount, but thats it.  Started sometime yesterday.  My 1000 updates are gone.  Took me 2 days of running the program Sad

Thanks for the partial peek at some of the benchmarking concepts.  Smiley

One and a Half weeks  Think I can make it till then.

I've been still working on my set-up combination.  Liking the Macd-Ma over the Macd, but only when I use another indicator to limit all of its noise.
Macd with RSI , Macd with RoC.   Either of those works, but its tricky.  They are kinda like a see-saw.  When one goes into a buy state the other will go into a sold state.  Keeps you in a trade when price flatlines. 

Anyone likes these combinations?

BTW We will take care of the unexperienced users using the benchmark which we are working on. Think about it... i dropped the suggestion of auto-tuning. Smiley (the agreement i have with the exchanges will not be affected by this)


Intresting.  I've got lots of thoughts on what I would love to see, but this one gave me a surprise. Grin

Whats the ETA on the benchtool?

I have been thinking about exchange fee's lately.  Since both Bots start with trade amounts in Bitcoin Amounts and Finish with totals in Dollars its really hard to figure out what the exchange fees are for each trade.  I could bust out a calculator every time I'm wondering what the actual profits are after the fee's are reduced, but that is a very big headache.  Programs are for that task.  

What do you all think of having the bot within the Trade Log page to present the Exchange Fee in Dollars just before the Profit/Total.  Would even be great if for the Total Trade the bot would subtract the exchange fee to let us easily track what is being made.

The change would look something like this:

                               Order Log
----------------------------------------------------------------------

  |      TAB       |       TAB      |  TAB  |            TAB            |

Trade Revanue>-Exchange Fee>Profit>Total Running Profit from all trades

---------------------------------------------------------------------

What does everyone think of this?

Yes, you can close out the browser Tab and Trade Server will keep running in the background.  I'm sure you may have notice a little white bunny icon in the Taskbar Notification area.  If you close that then Trade Server will shut down.

You do not understand me. If I bought or sold manually, through the exchange and want to turn on the bot, how can I show to bot the last bought or sold price?
In Simple Trade bot one would manually add it, but the new trade server thats a good question.  Thats why I have been stating which bot I'm refering to.

 Cry New settings didn't do too well on the latest crash.  Both bots had brought in around 822 an hour before the crash.  I'm running two different Macd/RSI settings.  The RSI kept the bots in when the Macd was screaming 'Get Out !'

Looking forward to the benchmarking tool coming   I've got to try different buy and sell indicators

After further testing with the bot:

i was able to change the + and - on the ROC. Sometimes it switches on the indicator chart but now not no more. In the window where to adjust the ROC rate it show buy = -0.005 and sell=0.005 ( i guess this is what we need). In the chart it says green (buy on 0.005) and sell (red) on -0.005. This really sucks...


Ok been working on this ROC for a long time.  I think these numbers are backwards.

Edit Rate of Change Window:
Buy at Value +0.005
Sell at Value -0.005

Those values always gets bot to buy high and sell low.  If i switch them it just causes strange stuff.

Please shed some light on this cause I'm really tired of trying to Cry


Dont want to start my bot with it selling at lows, buying at high.
Am i doing it right or wrong?



Edit:
Another question:
Here is the only settings I've been able to get working.  I've tried to save the log but that does not work.  Copy to clip board or save to txt file.  

On a 600sec (10min) interval I use one indicator with standard advance settings.

MACD-MA set at 9-11 with a 40 interval

Start the logging near a low in price helps
When Jabbers says 9-11 with a 40 interval, does he mean SMA short = 9, SMA long = 11 and signal length = 40? Or can someone help me undestand this too? Smiley

Sincerly,

Peyko.


Yes, that is what I meant.  This Macd-Ma of short = 9, long = 11, and signal length = 40 on a 10 min timer was done a little bit after I got Simple Trade Bot.  At the time I knew less then I know now.  It worked well for it skimmed the peaks of price changes.  I've learned it really is eaten up by exchange fees, especially when trading with more then 0.01 bitcoins.

I'm benching new settings now on.  Using a Macd with either a RSI or Stochastic indicators.  Basically a slow moving indicator paired with a fast acting one.  Works nicely.  But I need to understand more how the two work together.  I feel like I'm still guessing, not really knowing what I'm doing.

That was pretty easy to do.  Those two screen shots was a test.  The trade server screen was of a Macd with 7 30 ma's  and the other screenshot is from bitcoinwisdom showing two EMa's at 7 and 30.

They are moving very differently.  Even though Trade Server charts are line charts compared to the candle charts of bitcoinwisdom; the crossover at the end of the charts are very different.

I assume the trade server Macd is actually just 2 moving averages, hence the included Macd-Ma in the indicator options.

Is my assumption wrong with the Macd being a 2 moving averages charted as the difference between them?

In the configuration page of each bot there is the part which lists 'last profit made' and 'total profit made'

Would it be possible to list those inputs as a total after the deduction of exchange fees?  Those aren't actual profits till exchange fees are taken out.

In the trade logbook it would show the results from buy/sell - exchange fee = Total result of Trade

That would be really nice
