And I thought you read all my posts with great interest Only joking
The idea is to switch C.A.T. between Ping Buys/Pong Sells whilst the market is on an upward trend and then change to Ping Sells/Pong Buys on a downward trend. The switch could be manual using a button or some automated way as discussed.
Switching from rising to falling mode involves cancelling the Pong Sells (likely caught too high, since market is now falling), and using the coin balance to start new Ping Sell/Pong Buys which will work with good gains as the price falls.
Similarly, switching back to rising mode involves cancelling the Pong Buys (likely caught too low, since market is now rising), and using the BTC balance to start new Ping Buy/Pong Sells which works better as the price rises.
Before do something like that i think i need to write some MACD calculator inside C.A.T.
You know that a function like that is VERY VERY VERY RIsky? We are on Cryptocurrency Market, some "classic" market rules doesn't work in this world
I am so glad to hear that you are considering to add EMA (MACD)
So here is one thing I like to share with you, the beauty of EMA (MACD) was elaborated by Goomboo in his thread:

it is not a magic indictor, but simple is its beauty, just like your C.A.T bot.
The Ema is nice, but I would like to see that CAT would switch following the Parabolic SAR. That is the indicator that I prefer to work with.
