Does this
Stamp news have any impact on butterbot?
Hi
,
No, not really. A similar restriction has been in place for trading through the API's for a long while now. The API's would not process trading for amounts that the manual exchange would have accepted on either BTC-E or Bitstamp, I presume to curve market manipulation bots. We still recommend starting your Butter-Bot with 30-35 USD to avoid these issues.
Please let me know if you need anything at all

@Pablo, I saw this message on ButterBot "Bitstamp error while buying BTC: "__all__: Minimum order size is $5". Please contact us about that.". Please advise.
Hey Mooncake
,
Can you please tell me what version you are on? I'll get you sorted post haste after I have that info
.
Pablo.
3.0.5.
Hey
,
I talked to the developer, this has to do with the way the orders are triggered by the bot on the API. We will adapt how this is handled in the next version but for now, feel free to ignore the warning it doesn't have an effect on your trading.
Apologies for any confusion
.
Pablo.
Actually, it does have an effect on trading. When trades are triggered, they do so multiple times. There is a large trade where most of the btc are bought/sold, followed by many small trades where the remaining btc are bought/sold. Due to the restriction from Stamp, these many small trades cannot be executed. Because ButterBot keeps on trying to execute them, emails are generated and sent. It gets pretty annoying to receive these numerous emails.
Hmm, I find surprising you are getting multiple emails. The small transactions are just the way the API handles transactions, unlike the main exchange (when you trade manually) where orders are execucted at once, API trades are executed in steps for what I assume are "security" reasons to avoid API abuse.
Let me talk to the dev and see what we can do, can you please send me (
[email protected]) the logs requested below?
1. Go into the "manage extensions" page.
2. Enable "developer" mode by checking the "developer" box in the upper tool bar.
3. Go to the extension and click on the "generated_background_page.html" link.
4. When the new window opens, choose the "console tab"
5. Copy and paste the info there to pastebin.com as close to the time of your issue as possible and send it to me.
And:
1. In the developer tools open the network tab.
2. If it's empty, press F5 to reload the extension and wait a few minutes until there are some requests listed.
3 Then right-click the list in the left pane and select
"Save as HAR with content".
Please scan the file and remove your API Key from the text and send it to us.
This will help us resolve your issue much more quickly.
I am travelling tomorrow but I will get back to you on this Saturday at the latest, I apologize for the inconvenience.
Pablo.
