I think it's important to highlight to everyone what automated trading means. If you think you can launch the bot and take two weeks of holiday you are (partly) wrong. An automated bot is aimed to executed your strategy in a timely manner, at specific events. When the market moves, you may have to review your strategy and implement it in the bot. It's a skill which gives you speed in execution and analysis but not a solution if you have no strategy.

This is why it's not useful that much to share about previous results as it can vary a lot in function of the rules you will implement, the present market etc. With the rules I used (and the ones still coded in this bot) I realized 0.5% a day in July as mentioned in the OP.

Hope it helps ;-)

OK. After a 2-week exclusive agreement with someone of this forum, I am selling again this bot. Please send me a message with your offers.

Sure. Yesterday it would have bot at 12-something (minimum since a long time) and sold at buying price + 1.5%. Market was too unpredictable to do better.

You guess wrong. Actually I am not granted with the 0% fee privilege. I am trading with fees and making +0.5%/day. But yes fees and thin volatility don't go well together, you have at most one or two opportunities per day during a few minutes. The key feature of this bot is it has an algo to anticipate when the bitcoin is underpriced to sell a bit later when it comes back to a proper price.

Haha cool because I wasn't about to give that away for 1 BTC 

Thanks for your offer, but no.

No idea. Exclusive or non-exclusive. But not open-source in anyway.

Hi all

OK so I have decided to stop trading Bitcoins because I prefer to put my money back on to the Forex. This is why I am selling my bot.

Features
- Three months of testing and tuning (before and after the crash) based on algos built on three months of data
- Requirements: PHP server with MySQL, crontab and curl.
- Bot dedicated to Mtgox. But can easily be adapted to other exchanges like Tradehill.
- Average performance +0.5%/day these last weeks (tuning the parameters every week only)
- Written in PHP. I was about to code it in Python but actually it is fast enough like that. 500ms to take a decision.
- Analyzes the order book (depth audit) every minute. Far better than bots based on the ticker only
- Check the balance and buy/sell a % of the amount available when a buy/sell signal arise
- Includes a pricing module. When this bot buys/sells, the price is calculated in order to make the exact right offer (not at the ticker price)
- Stores history in a MySQL db and analyzes the weekly (or monthly) history to take decisions
- Signals: minimum, maximum, under/over priced bitcoin, growth rates (MACD, mobile averages)
- Portfolio analysis: this bot evaluates the value of Bitcoins bought at different times in order to get an average buying price and calculate profitability.
- Console log available with 60s update
- 3-level buy/sell rules
- Stop-loss parameter (I use -1%)

I can eventually install this bot on your server. This offer is non-exclusive but we can discuss exclusivity if you want.

Please make offers here below ;-)

I have stopped trading yesterday. I was actively trading on a daily basis with a very elaborated bot but it's not worth it anymore yet I prefer to go back on Forex. Not enough liquidity to play with.

Après c'est vrai que pour avoir accès à l'API certains demandent un peu plus, mais on trouve tout de même.

Bon moi j'ai arrêté mon bot hier. Je récupère les sous le trading bitcoin c'est fini pour l'instant.

Oups je ne parviens pas à lire ton lien Jessy il me demande de m'authentifier. Bref, moi j'ai commencé avec 1000 euros. Il y a des sites très bien genre Oanda etc.

Donc tu viens avec tes 3 posts faire la pub de ton nouveau forum. Soit. Et qu'apporte-t'il de plus ?

Voici bien une phrase absurde sans fondement, car tu ne connais pas ma stratégie de trading. +0.5% par jour n'a rien d'extravagant sur un marché comme le BTC.

Jessy en effet, je pense retourner sur le Forex dès septembre. Et pour info tu n'as pas besoin de 10,000 euros ;-)

0.5% par jour ça fait du +500% à l'année.

Oui je désengage mes positions dès que possible. Je ne fais que du short.

Par contre je ne comprends pas très bien ton histoire de "près du ticker". Il n'est bien sûr pas question de parler ici de nos stratégies, mais mon bot n'enchérit quasiment jamais au prix du ticker, sans quoi je ne parviendrais qu'à acheter 0.1BTC à chaque fois. J'ai un algo assez complexe pour déterminer le prix offert.

Je serais heureux de monter un fond mais je vous le dis les amis, quand je mets 100BTC d'un coup je vois le marché bouger... Cela ne permet pas d'investir des montants  intéressants... Marché trop petit simplement. J'envisage de retourner sur le Forex.

I think it might decrease yes. But predicting a target is totally absurd.

Salut les mecs,

Vous en êtes où avec vos bots niveau rentabilité ? Dans les conditions actuelles, extrêmement calmes, je génère à peine plus de 0.5% / jour... Et le manque de liquidité et pénalisant pour investir des montants importants (>100BTC).

This was supposed to be tomorrow, wasn't it?

I would like the physical card and would do it for amounts around $500.

If you compare the mobile averages you can't really spot a strong buy signal. In the same time, the order book is not solid enough to let me think people are willing to make the price rise. Make your analysis it's pretty obvious.

This is what I got on my radar:

So for me there is no strong buy signal yet... I just sold everything and will buy again later if there is one.

Actually it's not. The mobile average growth is very very slow and the order book doesn't show any sign of short increase.

THIS.
