I tried for days trying to figure out what kind of trading strategy they were utilizing in it's decision making. It seems completely random, RSI, MAC, MACD, Stochastic oscillator, etc. I couldn't figure out what they were using.

It's simply not true. Random? come on, man...


Regarding the lack of trades last weeks,

If you follow Bitcoin niche you might now about the dramatic news from Mtgox and other exchangers driving the price down. On such bearish trend it does not make sense buying bitcoins, the robot simply sits on USD and waits for favorable signals to buy bitcoins. It's goal is to protect the capital (USD value of portfolio) not to trade for the sake of trading.


P.s.
We also have a new Litecoin robot here http://ltcbot.com/earlybird.php

I'm thinking about using this only when the market is going down. It appears to lose BTC if market is going up in the short term. Also, maybe it's important to adjust the trading strategy based on the the market condition. Right now the market is very volatile, and I am wondering if the short-term strategy works the best in that case. If the market is flat and boring, there there is no point trading high frequency with a bot. I would be better off doing it manually, turtle-trader style.

Does anyone have experience in the variable efficacy of this product?

Granted it's your money (btc) I think most of us would advise you to stay away from this product. I tried for days trying to figure out what kind of trading strategy they were utilizing in it's decision making. It seems completely random, RSI, MAC, MACD, Stochastic oscillator, etc. I couldn't figure out what they were using. Like someone mentioned, it very well could be a man in the middle attack to steal bitcoins from traders. I honestly don't know, and without seeing the bots source code it's too difficult to tell.

They've admitted that they are using Ruby to code this bot, which is really a piss poor language to be using for algorithmic trading. Python, or hell even C++ and C# would be a better alternative than Ruby.

Best advice I can give, and this is from experience with a pretty good size loss is stay the hell away from this bot.

No, BtcRobot is not a scam. The robot is a solid automated trading software for BTC-e.

It can work on both Windows PC or Trading VPS (web based).

It works as advertised and produces conservative steady profits.

Yes, the team uses pen names and put google images as our pics for obvious privacy reasons. Nobody puts their real pics in bitcoin.

I have yet to see any non-sock-puppet (member with some more real posts) who would vouch for this "service". For me this is a scam and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zY4XPdcoZRw smells scammy from a mile away.

We received a lot of great feedback from you about the Litecoin robot and would like to address most of the questions:

Q: I dont want to download and install anything and keep my PC on. Will LTC Robot work for me?

It's a scam. I tested it and it's very obvious when you look at buy sell orders against BTC stock value. Also, the graphs they present are misleading. They do NOT show actual values! They show BTCRobot's values - values they use as a leverage for the man-in-the-middle attack (== taking your coins). EVEN when BTC prices go UP, the BOT goes down. Refunding others that have lost too much, no doubt Sad Or stealing it directly, if they are really mean Smiley

Even worse are all the newsletters / updates you keep receiving. "Brand new graphs" which show data that I can never find on other websites. But yeah, I'm gonna be rich ;p

I posted more information here: http://scforum.info/index.php/topic,8636.msg22669.html#msg22669 (BTC Robot: Testing: a fair and independent review (NOT a press release!) *SCAM*)

It also has names of other trading tools - including C.A.T. - which does as promised ;p

NO peace for these fuckers!

I created an account at Bitcointalk.org so that I could comment about this Bot. I purchased the Platinum package of the BTCRobot November 18th, right when the price of BTC started spiking. I started with 3 BTC's. After a month of hemorrhaging, I finally had enough and asked for a refund. It left me with 1.32 BTC when it was all said and done. I've since created my own trading bot, and have recouped some of my losses.


To anyone reading this thread, absolutely DO NOT BUY THIS BOT!!! You will lose your ass if you put your faith in it.

Thats a pretty huge loss

Current stats:



Profit: difference between the value of porfolio on the moment someone opens account with us and his current portfolio value in usd.
Avg. trading portfolio size: $2000

Not accounting for the rise in price in BTC while calculating profit, gotta love it!
