Thanks for feedback. Live trading is available for paid subscription only, though in my opinion the rates are very affordable for such kind of service.

nice service ... i'test now with a very small amount on gox. it will trade with no upgrade ... ? or only simulate ...

I trade on hourly time frame. From the chart you can see that GHS/BTC is downtrending so don't expect bot to trade actively until the market bounced back.
An order was not placed because 0.0002 GHS is very small amount - it is just 0.0000188 BTC. Minimum order amount for CEX.IO is set to 0.01 GHS.

What time period are you using? I'm using 1 hour and it hasn't made any trades today except this morning/last night with a sell at 0.0944 from a buy of 0.0974.

It may have gotten stuck as there was some ghs left that didn't sell for some reason, does it not buy until all ghs is sold?

2013-11-11 05:02 SELL order #7290762 amount: 0.0328 GHS @ 0.0944
2013-11-11 05:02 SELL order #7290762 traded. Balance: 0.0002 GHS (0.0000 BTC) 0.6203 BTC
2013-11-11 06:00 SELL order wasn't created because the amount is less than minimum order amount

EMA definitely works because today my bot on CEX.IO made few bucks on account with a small deposit of 0.5 BTC.

It should work, but i can't provide exact instructions because i dont have access to windows machine. Most likely you will need to have Visual Studio C++ compiler installed.


Thanks for your feedback. Could you suggest some readings about the simulation method based on a seed?


Some interesting algos can be found here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=261086.160

where can I find algorithms to test?

Greetings!

Is there any way to create synthetic data (BTC candles created based-on a seed) in order to backtest and simulate trading strategies?

e.g. that way we could simulate something like 100 years of BTC prices generated by a seed that contains the prices of BTC since 2011 to nowadays.

BTW, great application. Very well done.

Keep up the great work!

Does your standalone client work on windows?

Are there any other scripts that work with CEX trading other than the default EMA 10/21? I tried running backtests on some of the scripts posted in the contest but they all showed 10-20% losses on CEX. So far it seems like the default EMA 10/21 with 1hr is the only semi profitable one.

Good! This seem to integrate easily, has syntax highliting for CoffeeScript:
http://ace.c9.io/#nav=production
It doesn't have to be fullscreen, just a bit bigger vertical size to see more of the code.

Xpm/btc
and any other would be nice that way i can have more then a trade a day . And so far very good great bot made 40$ in 2 days with simulation of course just testing out the water but will put in some money next week

It won't be easy to integrate that preprocessor tool, as it's server side not client side. What about adding fullscreen feature to the editor?

Code in the editor becomes really cluttered when many classes handling different indicators are in it, which is really necessary if you are trying to develop successful mulch-indicator strategies. Much time is spent scrolling up/down in the editor. Would you consider using something like this https://github.com/fairfieldt/coffeescript-concat so code can be structured a bit and easier to work with? I know it would complicate the editor/saving work, etc, but it would be worth the effort.

Thanks for feedback! Which alt currencies are you interested to trade with?

very nice i will join today have been looking for something like this for a long time also when will you add more currencies for btc-e i like trading alt coins

Yes i cant do any simulation. I would really be interssted in LTC because i got more LTC.

Thank You

The problem occurs only with LTC on BTC-e? Thats strange, i will be looking into it.

Thanks for the link again.

I registred now and planned to upgrade, but when i'm testing anything with LTC/USD or LTC/BTC on BTC-e i can't find any Featured strategy that works.

Any help?

Regards
