Just an update, thanks for all the emails for offers to test/code, I appreciate it.

The product is at a "done" point now, and is available for sale. If you want a copy, email modfoo050@shackhost.net for a price quote(BTC equiv of 20 USD).

Once you buy you get updates/source-code for life. Thanks.

Not sure how I didn't see this before. Looks like an interesting thing to run. I'll be happy to help test this. In the video it shows seperate windows but in your screenshots you show a single connection using putty. Is that screen split in putty done using your program or another one? Anywho, I'd still be willing to give this a go. I'd be testing it on ubuntu 10.04 and 11.whatever it is over ssh.

That's the GNU `screen`(http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/) program providing the windowing. It runs within a SSH session.

If you are testing:

To get you started using the platform, you need the following installed

1) Perl (if you are not using Linux, OS X, or Unix, you can run Cygwin(cygwin.com) under Windows)
2) The LWP Perl module (you probably already have this)

If you want to buy/sell with the script, open it up in a text editor and enter a valid mtgox username/password on the lines that say:

Code:
#### EDIT THESE WITH YOUR ACCOUNT
our $name = "username";
our $pass = "password";
#### DO NOT EDIT BELOW(unless you know what you are doing)

When you run the platform, you will most likely want a few windows open to monitor the different modes it runs in. Here is the built-in usage instruction:

Code:
[me@cp perl]$ perl mtgox_tool.pl
usage: [command-specific-argument(s)]
commands: buy, sell, cancel, cancelall, orders, balance, monitor, ticker, depth, trigger, recent
types are 1=sell, 2=buy
status's are 1=active, 2=inactive(not enough funds)

example trigger to buy 50 BTC for 20 USD if price above 20 USD:
trigger above 20: buy 50 20

Your preferences may vary, but I like to have a window open running 'ticker', 'depth', 'recent', and 'monitor', I've attached a screenshot of what that looks like.

The rest should be self explanatory.

I realize this is *not for everyone*, a lot of people may not be comfortable using a command line, or will expect some novice-friend GUI.  Sorry, but to devote time to that project I would have to take a lot more time out of my working day, and that is how I pay the bills.

modfoo050@shackhost.net for tech support.

I'd be interested to hear more about this.  Smiley

What would you like to know?

Also, added a new feature to show streaming 2 minute, 5 minute, and 10 minute volume averages in a scrolling ticker format.

I'm not sure what the interest is for this type of platform, so I thought I'd post here to see what folks say. Keep in mind this is probably for a niche audience, and not the casual buyer/seller on mtgox.

I've developed a cross-platform trading platform that runs within a SSH console(or locally, your choice). It allows command line trading and interacts with the mtgox API. It runs fine on Windows(cygwin), OS X, Linux, and sane variants of UNIX.

Features it supports:
-placing buy/sell orders
-canceling individual or all open orders
-open monitor and balance monitoring(calculates net value of positions)
-live ticker
-real time order book(bid/ask size)
-2 minute, 5 minute, and 10 minute volume averages in a scrolling ticker
-triggers for the price being above/below a set point(triggers could be to buy/sell, send an email/sms, or run an external script.)

If you are interested in purchasing a copy, contact modfoo050@shackhost.net.

I've included a screenshot to show how I use it, this is in an SSH terminal using the GNU `screen` program to provide windowing.
