Load/Save Markets



Once you have open a market, and create a ping-pong algo, you can save all the parameter and configuration in XML Format.
The save operation will save all the markets that have a Ping Pong Algorithm Active.
The load operation can be done only when there are no open markets. C.A.T. will make an automatic "Check" on each Market Loaded. 

General Markets Lookup



First Empty Screen you will see is General Market Lookup.
You can choose to load the markets from Cryptsy : All Markets/only BTC Markets/only LTC Markets/only XPM Markets
If you check the box "With Statistic Calculation" C.A.T. will calculate some additional statistics over the orders/trades (this operation is longer than the normal market load process)

These are the statistics calculated :
- % Difference is the difference between High/Low Trades of the last 24Hours
- Sell Order/Buy Order are the numbers of currently orders
- Sell Trade/Buy Trade 24H is the numbers of trades in the last 24Hours

You can sort this table in Ascending/Descending Order by clicking on the Column Header
Double Click On a Row will Open a new Tab for the selected Market in "My Markets" Panel.

My Balances



If you want to check your balances press the button "Load Balances"
Positive Balances are highlighted in green.
You can sort the table by Currency Name or by Balance Amount

Estimated Portfolio Values is calculated this way :
BTC Amount + Sum(Of All BTC Market Alt Curr * lastMarketPrice)+Sum(Of All Only-LTC Market Alt Curr * lastMarketPrice)+Sum(Of All Only-XPM Market Alt Curr * lastMarketPrice)

My Markets - Market General Status




In the Market General Status Tab, you can update the market status.
It's not mandatory to use, but if you want to have a look at the current market status without go on Cryptsy site and have all trades divided by "Buy/Sell", the only thing you must do is press the "Refresh Status Button" and wait some seconds.

These are the info displayed :
- Market current Orders
- Your current Orders
- Last Trades (Divided Buy/Sell)
- Your Last Trades (Divided Buy/Sell)

My Markets - Algorithms



This is where you create the Ping-Pong Algo.
There are 3 Mode : Static, Normal And Aggressive.

NORMAL MODE
- Min % Guaranteed Gain. Is the minimal % of GAIN you want guaranteed from C.A.T. after a Buy-Sell/Sell-Buy operation. If this percentage is not guaranteed, C.A.T. will wait.
- Skip Orders With Total < Than. With this Option Active C.A.T. during his Algorithm will not consider orders with total amount lower than the parameter value.
- Don't create ping with total < Than. After a successfull Ping-Pong the total amount of this order will be put in the "Cauldron" and from the "Cauldron" will be created new sell/buy orders. With this option activated you will limit the creation on "little orders". If total in Cauldron will be < than this parameter, C.A.T. will wait for more money in cauldron.
- Never Sell Under/Never Buy Over with this option activated you will limit the creaton of orders with price too low or too high.
- Sell All If Price Goes Under (Works only for Sell Orders) with this option activated C.A.T. will sell your order if the market price is too low. The sell price will be current the best buy price.
- Sell All If % With Ref Price Is : (Works only for Sell Orders) Each PONG orders have a reference Price : the sell/buy price of the Original Pong Orders. C.A.T. during the algo calculate the % difference between the reference price and the current best Buy/Sell Orders. With this option activated you decide to sell a Pong Order if the % calculated is too negative. A Suggestion is to use value lower than -5%
- Stop Ping Creation If Sell Value Is > : You can decide to Stop The ping Order Creation if the Current Best Sell Value if too high, C.A.T. will restart Ping Order Creation if the Best Sell Values return lower than your parameter
- Stop Ping Creation If Buy Value Is < : You can decide to Stop The ping Order Creation if the Current Best Buy Value if too logw, C.A.T. will restart Ping Order Creation when the Best Buy Value return higher than your parameter
- Never Buy/Sell Directly with this option you will never buy/sell directly and you orders will have 0.00000001 difference from the best Buy/Sell orders.

STATIC MODE
Choose a fixed price for Buy/Sell and C.A.T. will always Buy/Sell at these prices, without any adjustment.

AGGRESSIVE MODE
You must set only Min % Guaranteed Gain, C.A.T. will try always to made a successfull Ping-Pong Algo

Press the CHECK Button in the CALCULATOR if you want to :

In this panel you can :
- Stop The Ping Pong Process
- Stop/Restart The Creation of new Ping Orders (current orders over the market will remain active)
