Its giving me the following error:

PL:~ fible1$ git clone git://github.com/prof7bit/goxtool.git
fatal: destination path 'goxtool' already exists and is not an empty directory.
PL:~ fible1$ cd goxtool
PL:goxtool fible1$ ./goxtool.py --protocol=websocket
-bash: ./goxtool.py: No such file or directory

It state that goxtooll is already installed but then it states that no such file or directory exists.

Any ideas?

Again, thanks for all your patient help

.

NP.

Sounds like there is already a goxtool folder in your current directory. If you know for absolute sure you don't need it then you can do rm -rf goxtool (WARNING: that will *not* send it to the trash, it is gone gone gone) and it will remove it, then you can do the git clone again. If you want to inspect the folder first then try open goxtool

I used the script to remove goxtool as you suggested and recloned it. Still getting an error:

PL:~ fible1$ git clone git://github.com/prof7bit/goxtool.git
Cloning into goxtool...
cd goxtool
./goxtool.py --protocol=websocket

PL:~ fible1$ cd goxtool
PL:goxtool fible1$ ./goxtool.py --protocol=websocket

Im taking a stab in the dark here and saying the cloning put the file in the wrong directory perhaps?

Not sure.

Ah I see... you do not have python installed (which is REALLY weird as it comes with OSX)... my bad.

You can install python with homebrew:

Code:

brew install --use-llvm libxml2 python

You don't stricly need libxml but I have found it just easier to have than to not (avoids headaches in the future, YMMV). You will also probably need PyCrypto: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pycrypto I think you can just download it and do the python setup.py thing, honestly it has been awhile for that.

Erebus,
This is my concession post, I tried it all and the SOB wont run. I hope they make modules for the GUI in interface and thats something Id be happy to buy if need be; but I digress. I really appreciate all your help, thank you so so so much, you've been more than helpful. I hope I can pay you back for your time at some point you were just awesome.

Best

Wu HU! I got it to clone.

Any further tips or should I head for the user manual?

Sorry I kinda dropped off (glad you got it sorted).

I posted some scripts earlier that I use to launch it with the strategy, also prof7bit recommended a new way to launch yesterday (so my original script post will be slightly out of date now):

Here is my start script, remove the strategy line if you are not using one

Code:

#!/bin/sh
# https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=148462.msg1854636#msg1854636
# https://gist.github.com/prof7bit/5395900
# https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=148462.msg1886914#msg1886914

# "p": place 2 orders above and below price.
# "c": cancel orders and effectively stop the bot
# "u": update own order list, depth, history, wallet and everything
# "i": display how much it is out of balance at current price (negative: must sell, positive: must buy)
# "b":balance immediately (cancel orders and then buy/sell at market to rebalance)
#./goxtool.py --protocol=socketio --use-http --strategy=_balancer.py

# Per https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=181584.msg1923260#msg1923260
./goxtool.py --protocol=websocket --strategy=_balancer.py

Also make sure that you shutdown the tool and do a git pull at least once a day because prof7bit is always making changes. I would also recommend creating your own branch for changes, but you said you were not a developer so I don't think you will be changing anything.

Its giving me the following error:

OK, install git:

Code:

brew install git

Then you should be able to get a copy of the bot:

Code:

git clone git://github.com/prof7bit/goxtool.git
cd goxtool
./goxtool.py --protocol=websocket

For the second command it tells me htat there is no such file or directory.

Worth noting: I didnt DL xcode, I just transferred the entire developer folder from a hard drive I had laying around to my laptop. Xcode works and opens fine but Im not sure if I had to put it somewhere in partcular because it is not showing up in the applications folder.

Ive been messing with it and I think it is an issue with it finding xcode. I actually went back and although brew installed succesfully t says "no developer tools found".

:/

Ok, I'm DLing command Line tools separately to worl with brew. Apparantly these dont DL automatically with XCode. I will update the thread when I have tested it.

I appreciate the feedback. I've been reading a all the threads on bots in the forum that I can find so forgive me if I get a tad mixed up.

As I understand it its a great plataform, but you have to code your own bots. Or are there bot modules around?

Also, any tips on how to get it running on osx? As I said my coding skills aren't even rudimentary but I do have a trading strategy I wan to implement.

Appreciate the help

Paul.

There are two bots in the open right now, both written by the goxtool author (balancer and stop loss).

I will help you, but it is a process if you don't already have the tools.

Install XCode (from app store) or command line tools
Then install Homebrew

See here for info on those first two steps: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/Installation

Ok, I am DLing the apps you suggested. I found and installed goxtoolGUI and have it running if that helps out process at all:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=176489.80

Paul.

Actually that is a VERY good sign.

Do I still need to DL xcode? If I have the GUI running?

Yes probably because you will want to install git and that requires homebrew, and that requires xcode for compilation (whew.... that was a line)

Got it, thank you. I wil reply when I have it all installed.

Best.
