Re: Butter Bot!: New Bitstamp, BTC-E, and MtGox EMA Trading Platform
@ Pablo
You once mentioned that ButterBot takes about 160 or 165 SMA samples to generate the first EMA value. I have tried various amounts but never seem to be able to replicate the exact same EMA values as butterbot.
Could you ask around about this?
I am compiling a Month to Month Minute accurate excel sheet to distribute on the forum so we can run various kinds of math against the past. But so far I am having a hard time replicating the ButterBot EMA samples. (I'd like it to match the real butter rather than be an approximation).

Did you get around to investigating the SMA samples?
Puerto,
Email me so we can discuss it in detail

@ The 1st thresholds.
I'd like to say that if you are creative enough, you can use the first pair of thresholds to limit your losses. Keep that in mind.
If you tune your settings with the first pair, you can also make the bot act slightly different in various types of scenarios.
-----------------
For example, you might want to assure your bot [only] buys after a sustained dip.
In this case your threshold might be a 2 and the second threshold for buying might be a 0.3
Same would be true of a sell scenario.
---------------------
You can also use the first pair to assure the bot weeds out the sudden micro peaks that don't affect price very much. For example, the market might go from -0.18 to 0.3 in two intervals. Using the first pair you can induce the bot to only buy if there is first a 0.25 or higher target and then on the second threshold 0.3
Which means it is looking for progression rather than sudden spikes which only meet 1 criteria.
If you learn how to use the first pair properly you can even set the bot to look for specific types of reversals. Just food for thought if folks think the first pair is useless. It's not. The programmer probably placed it there after realizing that 1 threshold can create wins but also major losses when there are false positives.
If you could set even more thresholds you could probably look for specific types of EMA curves and not just 2 basic thresholds being met.
That is really interesting. I've been trying to find some settings (particularly with the first pair of buy/sell thresholds) that could possibly resist sudden dropdowns like the one happened in mid December. So far without luck.
Re: Butter Bot!: New Bitstamp, BTC-E, and MtGox EMA Trading Platform
Anyone else having issues with the graphs not being drawn? I get 'Invalid Symbol" when ever i load the plugin.
I see "invalid symbol" only on btc-e; the others are fine

Yes, I can confirm the same problem with the ruby.exe being almost always on 25% CPU
It's a Ruby software development kit. It uses a lot of memory which is normal. If it bothers too much, I would suggest upgrading to Gold, we'll host your robot on our cloud hosted VPS!
Memory and CPU power are totally different things. If memory was the problem, I can live with it, but CPU power means electricity bills and this is no different from mining. And please do not constantly suggest to upgrade; it is obvious this is not the solution here.
My results in 3 weeks of using the robot :
Profit in USD : +3%
Increase in number of bitcoins : 0
Increase in bitcoin value : +3%
The robot made 7 trades but was never able to grow the number of bitcoins.
I think this robot is totally useless and does not grow your BTC.
I will wait for another month and if everything remains the same, will request a full refund.

My results after 1 month: +4%
I requested a refund, i have better results with my forex trades.
i would like to diversify my portfolio, but this robot isn't enough profitable for me.
And they can't reduce the cpu usage in silver plan, so i'm not impressed by this one.
Time to move on
Yes, I can confirm the same problem with the ruby.exe being almost always on 25% CPU (i5 on 4300MHz with 16gig RAM, Win7 x64). Quite annoying really as this little detail was not in the advertisments. Guys, hurry up with the update please !!
"Remember, the trading results should be considered long term. Let it work and check results once in a few months, it will show stable deposit growth, guaranteed Smiley
"
So if it doesn't show growth, what is your guarentee?

I hope that by "long term results" the robot makers mean less than two months when the moneyback period is over.
Hi eurobitcoin ,
I'm silver's member since last week, i run this robot on my VPS (windows server 2008) with others mt4 platforms (which work fine)
I had trades last week, but nothing yet for this week, since saturday.
My settings is "agressive", i restarted my VPS, btcrobot is allowed in window's firewall, nothing new...
So, i desinstalled program even settings in c:\users\....., reinstalled and reconfigured robot with logins/keys, robot is running, but i have still
nothing in the Trade's history.
Don't know why suddenly it doesn't work anymore since this week only?
I contacted support and i'm waiting a reply.
Anyone have same problem with silver plan ?
thanks in advance

I am in the exact same situation. Since 30.08 until 05.09 not a single trade (silver account , aggressive settings). Not that there were many before that.
