I have the bot for BTCe. Had no issues with their support when I ordered it. I sent them an email using the instructions you just posted. They sent me an email back a few minutes later saying I could pay using BTCe code, BTC, or LTC and that once there was 5 confirmations they'd pass on my API key to the programmers who would then email me a license. Because the programmers are located in Ukraine and there's a time difference, they said it may take up to 12 hours and to email them back if I had not received my license. I sent them the requested amount of BTC and after 2 hours I received a zip file containing my bot's account information and a license file.
Setting up the bot required me to type in account information that was attached in the zip file that they sent me. Once logged in I selected BTCe as my exchanged and typed in my API Key and API Secret. That's about it. After that I messed around with the bot and tried creating my own rules. I did horrible so ended up downloading some pre-made rules off the site and changing them a little. Doing much better now.
Over all I had a good experience.

Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
Answers for everyone that application remains free.
I'll do the best to make it better for users and exchanges.
Keep tracking updates.

Can we have an update with customizable rule sets so we can write our own (ie. "If %SOMEVALUE% goes 5% less than %ANOTHERVALUE% than do ..") before you release this version that requires exchanges to pay up? It would be greatly appreciated!
Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
I have doubts that exchanges are going to pay you to have their exchange added to the bot.
Let's wait and see. If Ighor enriches his app with charting, then his product would for sure be of interest to exchanges.
Bucketshops are paying hundreds of thousands of dollar to get Metatrader as a front-end for their clients (and partially a back-end for themselves). Why wouldn't bitcoin exchanges pay for having a decent front-end for their clients?
As far as I know there is currently one application, rtbtc, that has charts and order execution - the end user pays 20 bucks a month (rtbtc charts are very basic and low-quality).
Ighor follows a different business model in which the exchange pays for the front-end. In my opinion Ighor's product has potential (quality-wise, if charts are added) to kill rtbtc.
I'm not saying his product is of poor quality. I'm just pointing out that the owners of most exchanges are already getting large amounts of users who are already using bots that connect to their exchanges for free. So there's no real incentive for those exchange owners to pay to have a bot work on their exchange.
I suspect maybe two or three small exchanges will pay or make some kind of deal in order to get more traffic but larger exchanges like BTCe...not so sure.
I'll be interesting to see but I'll support whatever Ighor chooses to do as long as the bot stays free.
Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
Hi everyone!
As I have written before, I have several developments for Qt Bitcoin Trader in the pipeline. This summer, several powerful features will be added. This, however, will cost time and money. Therefore I have decided to commercialize the application in the following way.
The exchanges which receive new customers and trading traffic from the application will have to pay, if they wish that their exchange shall be featured in the enhanced application.
I will continue development and commercialization of the application within a datacom company where I am a part owner, Centrabit AG, with CHF 200 000 share capital. This will give me the resources to speed up the development and combine the application with other services within Centrabit, which will make Qt Bitcoin Trader better for users and exchanges.
During March 2014 I will contact selected exchanges in order to check the interest for being featured within the enhanced Qt Bitcoin Trader.
I thank all users who have donated bitcoin during the last ten months, (total 7 BTC). You have helped me make this application possible. From now on I do not need any more donations.
For the avoidance of doubt:
Qt Bitcoin Trader remains open-source.
Security and privacy remain top priority.

I have doubts that exchanges are going to pay you to have their exchange added to the bot. Most expect it the other way around. I think if this doesn't work out, a better method would be to implement a separate auto trade fee so that any successful trade that happens (buy or sell) would include a small 0.1%-0.5% fee added to whatever the exchanges fee is. So in other words when the trade successfully goes through (the open order is closed), the exchange gets it's fee as usual and the bot also sends a separate 0.1%-0.5% to your btc address. I think this would please everyone and here's why:
1) The bot would remain free.
2) All exchanges could be included (eventually)
3) The more people using and making trades with the bot the more money you and your company would make.
4) The users don't have to deal with switching between "supported exchanges" and "unsupported exchanges".
5) It all happens in the backend and would be auto calculated within the rule set so the user still makes a profit.
just my 2 cents. I know I'd personally stop using the bot if BTCe was no longer supported mainly because I don't want to move my btc around again.
Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
I'm trying to get these "rules" to work as well.
Trying to say:
"If current price (last, bid or ask) drops 2% from Last Buy price... then Buy 0.01BTC at current price"
"And then also place a sell of 0.01 BTC at 2% Higher than last buy price)
I have this in the rules:
1. If my orders last buy price<2% bid 0.01BTC Last Price
2. If my orders last buy price < $1 ask My Orders Last Buy +2%
So to test this, I bought manually at $566. Which means a 2% drop should be $554
Well the price has dropped to $535 and still no buy order has been placed.
So what am I doing wrong.
I just want to automatically set a buy order at 2% less than my last buy.
(and also a sell at 2% higher... but that is step 2)

Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
Hi all.
I have read all new messages.
I understand you want to use rules like "If %INDICATOR_1%<%INDICATOR_2% Then.." and I'll work on it.
First of all I'll make changes to UI to make you able to see what is going on in rules realtime.
Also I'll add Logs tab to see what and when was triggered.
Askit2, thank you for detailed description, I'll make update to better debugging and contact you.
I'll be glad if you will help me to test your examples and we will make it better.
About Cryptsy: I'll add it in upcoming update.
About other exchanges: I have updated base exchange class to make easier add new exchanges, but for now it still takes a time to add and debug each exchange, I'm thinking how to make engine better for easier adding. First of all I want to make it stable and rules working well. So other exchanges will be added later.
Thank you all for bug reports, feedbacks and donations!
PS: I was in Kyiv, was near revolution 8 Km and there was quiet.

Mind adding in a "backtest mode"? This way we can test our rules in real time without having to actually risk losing our currencies.
Thanks for your hard work. The tool is definitely shaping up to be a powerhouse.
Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
I know this question may seem a bit childish but honestly.
If Last buy price is less than ________ sell something.
It works but haphazardly.
The question I really desire an answer to is what fills in the blank? What are the last buy or sell compared to? I can't really effectively use the rule unless I know what it compares to. If the rules uses the Last price ticker then Likely I should use that price for what price to buy or sell at. If it uses an ask or a bid I should know what one. If its user selected that is perfect. Right now I don't know.
The second issue I see so far is that the rule in question doesn't seem to frequently work. I have a trailing stop if the ask goes up 1% that triggered about 1% below my last sell. That says to me that the price dropped 2%. It had to fall 1% below where it placed its buy. Its buy landed almost exactly 1% below the last sell. As a different rule should be buying back down 1% (unless I don't understand how it works) this rule never should have purchased anything.
Is the percentage raw or bound? By that I mean is <1% going to wait for less than 1% of the last price or is it going to wait for a drop of 1% from the last price.
As an example that never did get answered before. If I have last sell > 1% it seems to buy up a bit over 1%. If I have last buy < 1% it seems to sell at down 1%. The problem is that it doesn't always do anything. In other words is the % just an amount above or below 100%?
Bug Fix 4 installed and restarted so I should be using it and both last buy and last sell are broken. Or I misunderstand them. If you could take a moment and explain what the comparison is to and if the percent's are added or subtracted from 100% it would be awesome.

There is a "indicator" variable is any number displayed in the interface. It can be last price, balance or any other.
You create a rule by selecting one indicator as "IF", then the rule compare values only with selected indicator on every value change or if it don't changing, than half of second interval.
There is "Base value" based on selected indicator what will be compared to current indicator value.
Every time rule enabled/re-enabled than base value store current indicator value.
If you use "Trailing value" option, than base value will store current indicator value when trend goes to another direction too.
So it works this way: IF "Base Value"*6%>"Current Value".
Example of not trailing rule: "If price goes more 5% than sell all":
1) Current price $1000 (base value stored as $1000)
2) Price goes down to $980 (nothink happend)
3) Price goes to $1029 (nothink happend)
4) Price goes $1050 (rule executed)
Example of trailing rule: "If price goes more 5% (trailing) than sell all":
1) Current price $1000 (base value stored as $1000)
2) Price goes down to $980 (base value changed to $980)
3) Price goes to $1029 (rule executed - 980+5%)
Note: you should add fee to trailing value percentage, because it compare exact values.
Soon I'll add "base value" to interface, but there is no space and I need more time to make changes.
And yes, there was bugs in trailing value, they fixed in Bug Fix 4.
So Left to right
My Orders last buy price : Goes less than : Percentage 1% : Sell Amount : 0.01 : At Market Bid Price
What value is My Orders Last Buy Price compared to?
I see many potential indicators. Ask, Bid, Low, High, Last. Each has a separate and distinct number almost constantly.
As an example Lets say it compares Last buy to Last price. Now if I am selling at bid and last ask is more then the bid price My rules will not achieve my desired result. I will spend time looking for what actually triggers the rule. Since you wrote it I assume you would know what the actual base value is since it apparently isn't currently selectable.
lol I've been trying to get this information out of him for the past 2 pages. The rule statement seems like it's missing something. If the rule was written like this (which is something we cant do since my orders last buy/sell price isn't in the second rule column) then I think we could easily get our desired results.
If market bid price > .6% of my orders last buy price (plus exchange fee) sell amount .01BTC at Market bid Price
or
If market ask price < .6% of my orders last sell price (plus exchange fee) buy amount .01BTC at Market Ask Price
Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
I'm still confused.
ok so if I buy at $500 then that means the BASE_VALUE is $500 right? So the above statement (without trailing) just adds 0.6% to $500 which makes it $503. What is it comparing that $503 to though (ask, bid)? The statement seems incomplete. I want to sell or buy when the current (ask/bid) price is 0.6% more or less than my last buy price.
This is how I'd like to see it.
ask = 620
bid = 615
If market bid price > .6% of my orders last buy price (plus exchange fee) sell amount .01BTC at Market bid Price
if 615 > 606+.02%fee sell .01BTC at 615
If market ask price < .6% of my orders last sell price (plus exchange fee) buy amount .01BTC at Market Ask Price
if 620 < 615+.02% buy .01BTC at 620

Thanks for detailed descriptions.
I see there is a bug at "my orders last buy" indicator.
I'll fix it soon.
Cool, when can this be fixed? I just checked the latest update but it appears I still cant do what I'm asking
.I see in the change log that you fixed the "my orders last buy" issue (I'm not even sure what the issue is) but I'm still not sure how to do the above that I was asking about. Is this something I'm gonna have to wait for? If possibly, it would be great if you could add "my orders last buy price" and "my orders last sell price" to the second column in the rule maker popup so I can write the rule as
If market bid price > .6% of my orders last buy price (plus exchange fee) sell amount .01BTC at Market bid Price.
Thanks.

.Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
bump, IGHOR can you please answer this. I need to know how this statement would be treated "if my orders Last Buy price > 0.6% (trailing) sell amount .01btc at market bid price."
Base value saved at same time as rule enabled. So it will be used BASE_VALUE + 0.6%. If trailing enabled and trend goes in another direction, base value is changing.

Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
I'm a little confused. Here is what I want to do but I'm not sure how to do it becuse of the way things are worded. I'd like to buy BTC if the market ask price drops .6% and sell BTC if the current value is .6% more than what I bought the BTC for.
If I did something like this would it work?
- If market ask price <0.06%(trailing) buy amount .01 BTC at market ask price
- if my orders Last Buy price > 0.6% (trailing) sell amount .01btc at market bid price.
If this doesn't work then can you explain what I should be using?

This should works, you can test it by adding rule to play specific sound. So you just hear sound and you will know how it works.
Please note, you should add fee to % value to get profit.
So the "my orders last buy price" will be compared to the current asking price? That's the part I'm confused about. So for example if the first rule triggers and I buy in at 655 but then the market drops to 640 but then shoots back up to 655 would it trigger the next rule or would it wait until the price is .6% over my buy in price (655).
How would I factor in the fee? Would I pick the "Plus percent" under the last bot in the rule maker and type in .20% for BTCe?
PS. Thanks for the update. I look forward to the day you add in scripting and indicator support (Delta, EMA..etc)!

Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
Can we expect to see it this week or next?
Almost done. Testing new rules engine now. I'll publish release within 3-4 days.
I want to bring it to you as fast I can, but I'm not sure that enough time to test other exchanges. So Bitfinex is done. But other exchanges will be added later.
I can test BTC-e if you have it semi-finished.
Re: Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]
IGHOR, what is the ETA on adding a trailing stop function for the rule-set? I'd happily donate a portion of my profits once I can actually make them after I go to sleep, having to manually adjust my stop is not conducive to overnight positions.
Advanced rules what will allow you to make fully authomated trading is coming on v 1.07.97
Update will be available soon.
Can we expect to see it this week or next?
Thanks in advance
