Creating a new Trading bot needing feedback for features check out my post with current features

Hello Bitcointalk Community,

We are excited to announce the ongoing development of OgreBot, a sophisticated automated cryptocurrency trading bot designed to empower users with advanced grid trading strategies on the TradeOgre exchange. Our goal is to create a powerful yet user-friendly desktop application for Windows, providing a robust and aesthetically modern trading experience.

We are currently in active development and would greatly value input, suggestions, and feature requests from this knowledgeable community as we progress. We do plan to add support for other exchange apis.

Project Overview:

OgreBot aims to redefine automated grid trading by offering a comprehensive suite of features, focusing on intelligent strategy execution, dynamic capital management, and a highly intuitive desktop GUI. Inspired by the ease-of-use of platforms like BitUniverse, but built as a dedicated Windows application with deep customization capabilities, OgreBot is designed for both efficiency and a visually engaging experience.

Key Features Under Development:

[]

1. Intelligent Grid Trading Engine:

[] Supports both

Arithmetic and Geometric grid types for flexible strategy deployment.
[] Precise order placement and management, ensuring adherence to exchange minimums and precision rules.
[] Configurable initial grid states (Neutral, Long, Short) to align with market outlook.
[/list]
[]2. Balance-Centric Grid Sizing:

[] Dynamically calculates order quantities based on your available balance and total capital allocation for the strategy.
[] Offers

Equal and Tiered/Weighted allocation methods to optimize capital distribution across grid levels.
[] Real-time balance monitoring with automatic re-evaluation and potential adjustment of active orders if balances change unexpectedly.
[/list]
[]3. Intuitive & Modern Desktop GUI (PyQt6/PySide6):

[] A highly responsive and aesthetically pleasing Windows desktop application with a deep dark theme, neon blue/cyan accents, and subtle animations.
[] Features intuitive navigation via tabs (Dashboard, Strategy Configuration, Backtesting, Logs, API Keys).
[] Provides real-time display of market data, overall P&L, account balances, and active strategy summaries.

[]4. Robust & Secure Operation:

[] Secure handling of API credentials with encryption at rest and in-memory protection.
[] Built-in rate limit management for smooth API interaction with TradeOgre.
[] Comprehensive error recovery and persistent data storage to ensure continuous operation and data integrity.

[]5. Advanced Analytics & Backtesting Engine:

[] Integrated backtesting module for historical strategy validation and optimization.
[] Calculates key performance metrics: Total P&L, Max Drawdown, Sharpe Ratio, Profit Factor, Win Rate, and more.
[]

Interactive Charting (PyQtGraph): Visualizes market data with candlestick charts, grid overlays, and trade markers for detailed analysis.
[/list]
[]6. Adaptive Strategy Features:

[]

Volatility-Based Grid Scaling: Dynamically adjusts grid spacing (wider in high volatility, tighter in low volatility) using indicators like Average True Range (ATR).
[] Automated Re-centering: Configurable logic to re-center the grid if the price deviates significantly from the initial range, including cost thresholds to prevent over-trading.
[] Trailing Features: Implement Trailing Take Profit (TTP) and Trailing Stop Loss (TSL) to maximize gains and minimize losses in trending markets.
[] AI Advisor: (Initial rules-based, future ML-driven) Provides recommendations for optimal grid parameters based on market conditions and user risk tolerance.
[/list]
[]7. Future Scalability & Monetization Readiness:

[] Modular architecture designed for easy integration of additional exchanges (e.g., Binance, Kraken) via an

AbstractExchangeClient interface.
[] API Key Management system supporting multiple exchange credentials.

• Technical groundwork laid for potential monetization models (e.g., licensing, SaaS subscription) with licensing modules and a scalable data management system.

[/list]

Technical Details:

OgreBot is being built primarily in Python 3.9+ utilizing PySide6 (Qt for Python) for the desktop GUI, ensuring native performance and extensive customization capabilities. Core libraries include requests for API interaction, pandas and numpy for data handling, and PyQtGraph for advanced charting. Local data persistence is managed using SQLite.

Community Input & Suggestions:

We are keen to develop OgreBot as a tool that truly serves the needs of crypto traders. We invite the Bitcointalk community to provide feedback, suggestions, and feature requests.

[] What specific challenges do you face with existing trading bots or manual grid trading?
[] Are there any "must-have" features not listed above that would significantly enhance your trading experience?
[] What kind of analytics or reporting would you find most valuable?
[] Any thoughts on the proposed UI/UX direction or specific visual elements?

Your insights will directly influence OgreBot's development. Please share your thoughts below!

new project coming soon forked from decred 

---

Hello everyone,

I've been thinking a lot about the state of new cryptocurrency launches in 2025 and wanted to float a hypothetical project idea to get some feedback from this community.

It seems like we're always forced to choose between two imperfect models:
1.  Pure PoW Coins: These offer a fair, decentralized launch, but are incredibly vulnerable to 51% attacks, especially in their early days.
2.  Pure PoS Coins: These can be more secure, but often suffer from centralized initial distribution through ICOs or pre-sales.

So, here's the thought experiment: What if a new project was created to specifically combine the best of both worlds?

The Hypothetical Coin's Architecture:

• Base: A direct fork of Decred's codebase to inherit its battle-tested hybrid consensus engine and on-chain governance (Politeia).
  
• PoW Algorithm: KawPoW, to make it ASIC-resistant and ensure a fair launch for GPU miners worldwide.
  
• Consensus: A true hybrid. Every block found by a KawPoW miner would need to be validated and approved by PoS ticket holders to be added to the chain.
  
• Tokenomics: A block reward split designed for sustainability, something like:
  
  • 50% to PoW Miners
  • 40% to PoS Stakers
  • 10% to a community-governed Treasury

The core idea is that the PoS layer acts as an "immune system," making 51% attacks nearly impossible from day one, while the KawPoW layer ensures fair, widespread distribution without a pre-mine or ICO. The treasury ensures the project can fund its own development forever.

I'm genuinely curious what this community thinks.

• What are the potential flaws in this model?
• Would the economics of the 50/40/10 split be compelling enough for both miners and stakers?
• Is this a project you would find interesting enough to participate in (either mining or staking)?

Looking forward to the discussion.

with all the development you guys have gong into your ecosystem this year i dont understand why this coin is so cheap on kucoin? it has use and definitely unique. Oh well with the crypto boom coming back and more adoption it will start moving along better we can only hope anyways.

I noticed some activity on GitHub a few days ago I think these guys are really busy but they have plans for the coin just slow as Christmas I also noticed cryptonote.club pool has not been paying miners  since 16 the possibly alt fork or they didn't do the mandatory wallet upgrade who knows I would stay on miningpool.fun since they added that pool as a seednode 

Gabberpool.xyz has most of the hash roughly 75% and money supply is at 4 trillion already hope they have plans for this coin after it caps because the network won't move if there are no rewards for miners

Well I see alot of these new cryptonight coins are being merge mined so maybe there is hope yet. I know it caps I think I have a little over a billion trtg fingers crossed but it reminds me of the old karma coin

The block rewards are so high 517000 with no halving it makes the coin worthless these guys have a lot of coins out right now I think they are focusing on bitoro/xtor

Use the one on cryptonote.club pool above if anyone needs wallets or anything let me know I'll compile them

is the user in the sudoers group?

this is basic linux stuff lol. its all working fine as i have it compiled and running. i ran into no issues.

did you cd to the src directory before running the command


then run



then

could be your miner? i have had no issues with rejection rate

i followed the guide on the ZERO repo


then did ./zcashd -listen=0

was smooth as butter

no remember cryptonote coins use a 8 or 12 decimal floating point system so that would be 34.5

also 1.1.4 is the newest wallet version
