I was worried about low trade volume thing. If someone knows the coins you have in your mining list and they mean to do your pool harm they could buy up a bunch of low volume coin so the price goes up and your pool will automatically start mining it and you wont be able to sell at the price that it was propped up to because its so low volume.
Any intelligent algorithm would only look at the buy orders, and also look far down enough to get an average price of the expected amount of coins that will be mined..
This is what I'm hoping for... if the algorithm used is looking at sell prices there's an issue -- things are only worth what people are willing to pay.
Can we get some clarification on how this works with the pool?
