I absolutely agree. First thing is programming, doesn’t matter would you run on local machine or on cloud based. You have to connect to the trading server through API and fetch the information. But this options isn’t the best one, as wvery platform has its own limitations (from 5 to 15 minutes). And the exchange rate might be terrible for you. I’ve found this article also

I would love to see a bot take advantage of price corrections. Every time I've seen a huge run in price, it is always corrected about halfway down (number off the top of my head).

For example, NEO (formally ANS). I bought in at $12, and in the past week or two we've seen it make a huge leap to $50. Today, it's at $34 which is the correction. While watching the graph hit $50, I knew I should have sold and waited for this current price to buy again. In fact, I've seen this happen to every single coin that I've ever held. It makes that initial jump, then the price corrects. If a bot could be coded to watch for a new ATH (all time high), and then sell when it has dropped 5% under that ATH (this is when people tend to panic and sell of everything, which causes the bigger drop) I believe it would be very profitable. Then if the bot were to wait a few days for the price to stabilize, and buy in again it would maximize the traders profits!
This is the basics of the assets world. Every asset born, develop, stabilize and downward. The point is to predict each movement before it happens and this is not easy for sure.

First of all, you need to know programming.
Then, you can go through those trading site to see if they provide any API for developer using.
Here is the API provided by bittrex: https://bittrex.com/home/api

Please read all messages here.
I have posted about my knowledge and skill.
Do you have experience of creating bot?


Hi friend. If you interested you can have a look at my topic. My bot is PHP based and all opensource.

First of all I should to decide which strategy was in basement of bot.

Right now I could to choice few ways: algorithmic and neural network. In google you will find a lot of information, but I suggest to look at next open source projects (especially on their Issues, because a lot of discussions)

Each major platform (Bitfinex, OKCoin, Bittrex etc.) has API that issues you a token after you sign up. Pass that parameter to each request, then you can freely trade via API. However, if you plan to do an HFT arbitraging, be warned that it is too late - huge Bitcoin tx fees make it obsolete.

Better to do it from any hosting or better vps. Just code in PHP script which will trade on those sites via API calls with your own logic.

Thats all  Smiley Not very difficult... I have done bot for kraken.

I use VPS too.

How you call your php script?
Do you use CRON or exist better app?

please post your code here if this not secret Smiley

Bot trading only works according to what it was programmed. So, in order for it to function correctly, you need to be an experienced trading expert. Because your experience is the key to its success. This is a rather specialized problem, I still have not enough ability to do. good luck!

That's all  Smiley Not very difficult at all... I have done a bot for kraken. I can help with the basics, anything more than that you'll need to pay a dedicated developer.

You just type digoogle "poloniex or bittrex exchange" then what is concerned with both systems will appear and then you select the link, of course related to the theme above,
Of course can, to make can use Local PC, with the condition of RAM and VGA enough.
RAM and VGA is very helpful to open some programs that will be used, Thanks.

Happy to lend a hand on any node.js questions but tbh the best part of the language is it's relatively easy compared to most.

Node.js is essentially just javascript like you find in a browser, only the key part is you run it on your PC or server side.

The real power of it though is you get to stand on the shoulders of giants once you learn how to use the npm (node package manager).

You can install other people's libraries really easily and now with just a few lines of code you can access things like exchange APIs, send emails/txt messages, etc..

Hardest part to learn about node.js is if you're used to other languages and understanding how the scope works.  Sounds scarier than it is though, generally it's a lovely to use yet powerful language.
