Yes the bot works well with bitstamp. The bitstamp did have some issues in the past but overall not very many compared to cryptsy. With the beginner licence you get the simple stop loss features and with the other ones you get "dynamtic drop loss" which is a stop loss that re-adjusts automaticly as the price goes up or down. Hope that answered your questions.

Hi,

I just came across this while researching trade bots for Bitstamp. I was wondering does this bot work well with Bitstamp from other's experience? Also, I only trade Bitcoin on Bitstamp and was wondering what would be the best version for me? I'm interested in all the features that prevent losses. Are most people using the advanced license or one of the lower levels?

I am very interested in this bot and will make my purchase based on the feedback I get.

Thanks!

@Stephan224,

Is it possible to let Haasbot directly read Cryptsy price from its exchange webpage instead of API port?
I mean, to catch the price after string "Market Trade History (Last 200)…" on page https://www.cryptsy.com/markets/view/***
Because the price in webpage is real-time info without delay, and it can be read without login.

If the webpage reading speed is an obstacle to do that, then what about let all client bots randomly read one of the 200 coin exchange pages in every one minute ,and then upload the info into server (just like a distributed computation), and then let server pass back combined all 200 coins price info to every bot.

It is just an idea, for you reference.

@Stephan224,

Got the same error message here. Very unpleasant, it caught me totally off guard. All trading blocked, sell signals of the indicators/safeties didn't work. Missed a perfect opportunity to sell my coins Could have lost big MONEY when Bitcoin went down. Luckily the price veered up again.

Although I check your site regularly for new updates, I can't do this 24/7. Send us an email that we need to update ''as soon as possible otherwise trading will be blocked".

Please don't repeat this when you launch the big update. Blocking the bots could have serious consequences for us all!

   

"|ERROR|   Trading is blocked because this software is outdated, please get your update at www.haasonline.com."


Please...don’t set this kind of logic in the bot, it may cause lose because my bot is unable to sell a dumping coin.

Same for me. it happen on me occasionally also, and the disappear by itself.
Now I use percentage of amount,  100% for bought side and 10% for sold side, it seem ok now in the past a few days.

God I would love that...

Honestly I think mintpal is the best option. They have some of the highest volumes for the most active coins. I think they have a API that is currently in beta, hopefully it get released soon.

Cryptsy is just Crapsy, they just cant get their act together. Buy and Sell orders dont go through or disappear ect.

We need an alternative to Cryptsy, maybe mintpal if they have an ok api , what other exchange with lots of coins has good volume?

Damn. Also have you had any issues with trade amounts. I am always getting issues and the bot gets stuck. I tried all three settings and i get an invalid trade amount all the time. I also for somereason get "Reading fee percentage has failed, falling back to 10%.". This might be the cause as adding a 10% fee would throw off everything, when the real fee is like .15%.

it just sit at there...and hoping...
currently, this is the most frustrated problem I have on this application.
the only solution I can have now, is go to the Cryptsy webpage and cancel them manually...

My bot sometimes seems to stop tracking data from Cryptsy. The prices it was trying to use were hours old. Also what happens when the bots order gets burried by other orders. Does it cancel the order and reevaluate or does it just sit there hoping the price returns.

@Stephan224,

I found a bug which is quite misleading.

If I set a 10 minutes time interval on an indicator, it will only show signal color (Green/Red) on 1st, 11th and 21th minute.
At the other minutes, it just shows a white color and even not be counted in 
This setting is really misleading, it take me hours to do the troubleshooting to understand what is wrong on it.

Could we just let the indicator keep its signal position in every tick (1 mins) even it has a longer time interval (>=2 mins)?

Thanks

Guys i'm new here...


Any good reviews of the bots ?

also Stephan any promotions or promotional prices coming ?

Long time thread lurker first time poster.

I have been getting more and more frustrated with some of the changes in this new version. I am probably doing something silly so I figured before it get's worse maybe I should ask. For the example I bring up lets assume we are using 2 bots. One on btc-e and one on bitfinex and lets also assume we are using a trade value of 3 btc.

My issue's are with placing and pulling orders. The current max timer value for an order to be left open seems to be 10 minutes (I say this cause the UI won't accept a value larger than that for me). In my opinion this sometimes isn't long enough to allow for the entire order to get filled. So you run into one of two scenarios. Your order gets half filled then pulled which leads to the bot getting permanently stuck because if he sold .20 btc out of 3btc it now only has 2.8 btc left and it isn't keeping track of that so it just throws endless error after error that the current available wallet value isn't right.

Only way I have found to get the bot unstuck is to force a buy or sell command or manually change the trading value (to a value of $totaltrade - $filledportion) and then change it back after the trade is successful. Both aren't the best solutions due to the current bot setup because it requires console access.

I guess my point here is it needs to be tracking how much of the order was filled so that it doesn't still try and trade the full amount after it would also be nice to be able to adjust that time above 10 mins (unless i'm clearly missing a case where a bunch of attempted buy orders not getting filled is a bonus). Perhaps this will get fixed when the split order command returns. Maybe I should be using more bots with a smaller trading value so it doesn't take so long to fill orders?

This seems like a pretty silly one. I can't really complain though even with the bots getting stuck they are still up a few hundred fiat dollars. Just frustrating to return to check the bot progress a day later and realize its been trying to sell 3 btc's 32 times but one of the random orders got 1% filled and stuck the bot.

Hi Bajawah

Thank you for the insight - yes, it was clever.
The orders were sent to crypsty but stayed there in the queue forever, or they were only partially executed. As a result the wallet at haas did not match the actual status up there at the programmed time for the next signal detection-

I think I better switch to another pair and/or exchange - this is a headache -any suggestion of a good candidate to start with ?- the goal is not making great profits (yet)  but putting the machine to work seamlessly by trying the different indicators available.
Cheers

Can you check your logs to see if the orders went through correctly?

My guess is they didn't.

Cryptsy along is a pain to work with because you can't cancel orders.

Then DOGE is impossible because the volume is insane and nothings seems to ever get fully executed.

So, it's the perfect storm of crazy.

Why the wallet reading is off (what I think) is your bot is losing track of it's position and thinks its ready to buy when it has not sold yet. etc.

Hi all,
first post, I'm just a noob at trading and I am finding a stange behaviour in my first steps with the haas, can someone tell me if I am doing something wrong?

- I put some DOGE (approx 20K) in the wallet and I am trying to trade them @cryptsy
- I am running the beginners license, either with the classic or web front-ends
- After much thinking I managed to set up a "bulletproof" bot consisting of a standard RSI plus two insurances, i.e. overcome fee costs and never sell below last buy. The idea was not to lose it all too early eaten by trade fees so I was extra cautious 
- The backtests went well and showed small profits, then I cleared the stats and activated the trading.
- I let it run for a while and found out that the 1st trade buy or sell always works well, but right after that, the wallet amount reading goes crazy and prevents further trading. It doesn't match the real amount left in the Exchange. e.g. the 20.000 initial Doges, minus the trade amount which is currently 5000 - but it could be a lower or higher value, in the end it does not seem to impact the weird behaviour... After the first trade the log reads something like "The current trade amount(5000) exceeds the current available wallet amount (80,98785389)" or a similar tiny amount vs. what is actually left in the invested side...
- I can't find where to edit the wallet contents in order to restore the right amount and carry on...

Any ideas?
Thanks so much in advance!

They are slightly different and might produce different results. A few posts back was discussed about how to set up scalping depending on if the general trend is up or down.
Why not use both using two bots, if you want you can add a stop on losses insurance combined with a drop loss for extra protection against crashes.
