Topic: Haasonline Simple Trade Bot For BTCe and Bitstamp[Main topic] - page 95. (Read 416703 times)

Stephan,

I've confirmed my API public/private key works by using a PHP Class (https://gist.github.com/mkraemer/7483878 (I forked it for use with PHP pre 5.4)). I'm able to use getAccountData successfully.

I haven't deposited anything into my account yet, so I'll be happy to supply my public/private key for testing and then later revoke the key.

Please let me know what action to take so I can get the trading working on BTCChina!

Cheers
Cazz0r

yea API verification is taking forever

edit: I guess they are asleep at the moment

What live streams do people watch btw. while trading?
I hear that some have more lag than others... (wasn't expecting that).

When the bot trades, is there any way to keep the action out of public visibility? I know there is dark liquidity, but I was wondering where/how this is made available in BTC exchanges.

@stephan224:

Minor bug in BTCChina addition:
If there are still incomplete open orders, the "Show Open Orders" window displays this fact, but the "Open Orders" button displays in GREEN (this is wrong) and the Logbook->Trade-bot signals window is not displaying the correct data either (orders are open, but "Are there no open orders" is checked). 

I checked my BTCChina Orders list as well, and the order is still only partially complete.

Additionally:
I suspect (not certain) that when this happens (if an order is not filled all in one go), that the debug log says "x coins sold for a price of 0 and ... bought for ", even though it should give the correct sold price.  Haven't recorded what happens if a buy order is not completed in one go.

@Cazz0r:
I have had the same problem for a while. I am not fully sure what the cause could be be suddenly the 401 error will be gone and everything will work. Just give it a moment, it looks like BTCChina approves each API by hand or something like that. I have requested additional info because i suspected questions, but i have not received the details. But like, i said, just give it a try again and suddenly it works for no reason.

Something else... once you get BTCChina going you will notice something very strange. The sell prices and buy prices are looking to be upside down. But this is true, just go the exchange and you will see the same numbers. It is likely to be caused by the 0% fee costs. What you can expect is that trading works normally, it has no impact on the software itself. I have taken some huge profits last night at BTCChina, i love it! I recommend it!

@nowywbitcoinowymswiecie:
I was planning on mcxNow but i can not get there API working. Beside maybve adding MtGox i am not yet planning on adding other exchanges. We will now begin to focus on expanding the indicators and trading capabilities. I am working on more advanced settings and 2 more indicators right now. Thats planned for the next release. And... hopefully i can finally add the multi-language support.

Stephan -
Do You intend to add BitCurex to available exchangers?
Its growing bigger and bigger. It would be nice to have it.

Hi Stephan,

I've tried to add the API keys in for BTCChina and it isn't able to verify using the "Test settings" button.


I've verified the credentials and created multiple keys which hasn't proved to be of any success.

BTCChina is supported, get in now!

I have rushed a new release of the Simple Trade Bot to provide support the BTCChina. You can now login at the My Account page and grap the latest version (v0.9.0.4) and start trading at BTCChina right away. Be sure to get in soon because the trading fee at BTCChina is 0% right now!

Suggestion: Make the logbook either order descending in time, so newest buy/sells are at the top OR make it autoscroll to the bottom, theres no reason for it to only show the first orders without intervention.

@stephan224 I think I've found a minor graph re-draw bug.

Bug:
If you delete an indicator, wait, then add it again, I think it doesn't redraw the scale properly with the appropriate offset on the main Trade Bot Signal Graph Window.

I did this with the RSI indicator / ROC indicator, while MACD-MA is always running.
If the main indicator has 0 - 300 updates (correctly displayed), and I add the RSI indicator late (at 50), then the RSI scale will show 0 - 250, but it should actually be 50 - 300 to start from whenever I enabled it - it makes it easier to check trigger points between graphs.

Feature Request:
It would actually be nice to have a single graphical overlay that had all Technical indicators on it.

Thx

That's great! 0% makes it sooo much easier when it's quieter, and when the price is so speculative

I will answer your question in a few hours miaoux, but first i want to tell everybody that trading with 0% fee is coming up in 1 or 2 days. I will push a new release in 1 or 2 days that will support trading at BTC-China. At the current moment i am making some final adjustments for this release.

@stephan224

Is there an option for a percentage rise (to set a sell in advance), and percentage fall (to prompt a buy if the figure drops to that level)?  I'm looking at the indicators, and they seem to all work with hard values without percentages.  (EDIT: ROC kind of does something similar, but doesn't set the buy/sell in advance...)

The sharp increases are causing havoc with my indicators set because the momentum is there, and the RSI is above 80 - 90 on a sell (for example - and I usually have MACD + RSI while testing these), but momentum shift is so sharp that the sell is always at the initial point where it rises (totally missed the recent LTC rise because of a sell indicated at 4.x).  I'm not currently sure what options I have besides holding with drop-loss at the moment - but that removes the advantage of having the bot  Unless I have two bots - both dealing with different conditions... but even then I'm not sure what deals with me wanting to buy at an indicated trough and a sell at an indicated peak.

Do you have a description of how MACD-MA works compared to how your MACD works?  I'd be interested to see how both differ... from the looks of things MACD-MA is the traditional (what I was expecting) indicator, but then what's MACD?

Thanks

@trictors:
This is a problem that is already known to me, but i was not able to solve it directly. I tried last time using the red trade-amount box, but that failed.

To "solve" your issue you could do 2 things:
- Place a little amount of coins on the trade side that is empty and do not trade with 10LTC, but with 9.5BTC (for example, this gives a little overhead)
- Use the all-in option that is dynamically adjust to your wallet contents.

Both options will offer you a work around for this problem. I agree this is not the best solution of course and i am still looking for better ways that remains clear to every user.

The only thing, that could be causing this problem, from me not having enough coins.

Is say if your account has 0 ltc, Your program buys 50. Then when it sells it attempts to use other ltc in your account that it didnt even buy.

Either way its an error, and not a user error correct?

And in plainer english, If you have 1000USD, and 0 LTC. you should be able to start your bot on LTC/USD.

-----
It bought the coins itself, it should know exactly how much it has to sell because it bought it. The coins are there. the position changed.

@Istie:
These messages are normal, its just a indication when the drop-loss price is adjusted.

@nowywbitcoinowymswiecie:
If you run it on 2 seperate computers with 2 seperate public IP adresses you should have not problems at all. I suppose you connect using different API keys to?

I am not sure what else is going on, you are describing some very strange behavior. Over here i have no problems with the startup and the settings, everything works just fine here. The same applies to the charts, they are all visible over here.

Is anybody else having these issues too?

I use two separate computers with two separate internet connections in separate locations. One small laptop which I intend to run 24/7 .
Second is my personal computer where STB is started from time to time just to check and verify for bugs like these above.

Theres no way to saturate Exchange but this assures me that STB have issues. Like not refreshing price graphs.

Additionally - I found that after restarting STB theres no info about connected exchanges - footer dont show anything except "-".
I need to open settings and save already stored information and then STB shows me exchanges conncted. Not before.

Nice new version! Thx for all the hard work Stephan!

The bot is buying and selling as it should. (cryptsy works again) didn't see any arrors.
I only need to learn more about the indicators and how to fine-tune them  

Just one little thing, no big deal and it's seems to work fine, when I set the droploss adjustment at recommend settings I'll see many time-outs in the debug log...

edit: or it should be there...? then forget-it

It is one API per exchange.
