Just a little warning here folks...

You're downloading a program from someone with a forum activity level of 3. Does this seem wise?

Hi xstr8guy,

your point is not lost on me. There are many people out there trying to hack everything Bitcoin.

From my end I know I'm honest and looking to build a trusted software business, but of course the hackers would say that too.

For people who want to try Coin Finder, but want to be sure that it can be trusted here are some steps you can take to make sure that nothing can go wrong and even if something could go wrong, it will be such a small lose as to be unimportant.

step 1)
have a windows machine or windows virtual machine with nothing on it, just the Coin Finder trial.
That way it has no access to anything important and you will still be able to see how it works.
(I understand this may not be practical for everyone, but it is a sure fire way to stay safe from new software )

step 2)
If you want to see real trades happening, setup a new CEX.io account or use an existing account with very little in it.
Study the documents and forum threads on CEX regarding their API.

They have thought it out well from a security point of view.

- With the CEX.io API you can ONLY trade from the IP address you specify.

- Their API only allows you to trade within your account. It does not allow your funds to be transferred to another account.

Originally I created Coin Finder because I didn't trust giving another website my CEX details. I feel that it is safer keeping that information on my local machine and locking it to my IP address.

Cheers
