Ok I think we're all full for now.
If more room opens up I'll post here, so watch this thread.

In the meantime, I need to know what local currencies are being used.

The bot is working with USD right now, but I wasn't watching closely when I coded this stuff and some places have USD hard coded.
I'm going through and fixing it, but if everyone right now is on USD then that's something I can backburner to try and get some of the other issues cleaned up such as coming out of full stop etc.

Overall they're pretty clear for anything over 1mBTC, but below that it gets a bit hokey.
I have a feeling it just tried to sell 1 Satoshi Smiley

For those who are wondering about what to start an account with.  I started with 2 btc then performed a market order to sell 1 btc which gave me 11 usd and some change.  That's frankly about all I could afford to risk.
My account as of this moment has 1.98btc and 24.00usd

Trades can be as small as the mtgox minimum trade which I think is 0.00005btc but I haven't looked too closely.  However it is the smallest trade I show in my history at the moment.
My stop loss is currently 0.25 or 25%,  I'm going to advise you folks to maybe make it 10 or 12% since your working with more money, but its up to you.

Understand the stop loss in this case is a bailout function that stops the trader from executing until the market recovers or you restart the app.  It won't close any positions since the trader works exclusively on market orders and thus all positions are closed automatically and a PL calculated at that point.

Ok so I Have a 32 bit operating system.

This works under the security center feature Advanced Api Key Creation, So I would just grant rights to trade and get info.
Then plug the key  that was created into your program.

I set up an acct with 25 btc for it.

Yes that's correct.  There is an interactive setup feature that will prompt you on first run ONLY for your API keys. 
You only need to give those keys minimal permissions.

During first run it will also ask basic questions such as max btc to buy or sell in a single order,  stop loss threshold etc.

I've been doing the math.  I think 10 people for 1 month will give me sufficient data.
So let's open this up and invite 5 more, but that is seriously my personal support maximum.

In the meantime, if you want to be a part of this, just voice it here in this thread.  The pm system is very unwieldy for this much communication.

Thanks!

Hey Isis , thanks for the add with the automated tradebot, I intend to use it in a seperate account to keep the data right for you and manual trades will not be done.

Anyway I havent figured out a btc amount to put in yet, but will it try to earn btc and not usd , that is what i want.

Would 20 be good ?  Start with 20 and add more later if successful.

Thanks again

The algorithm is opportunistic.  It tries to maximize gains on both sides while limiting losses.  I've added a full stop option as well.  The full stop let's you specify a max loss you will tolerate.  Since the loss is based on your account high balances it should function exactly like a trailing stop loss.

Got this in my log a little bit ago.  Found it humorous and thought I'd share.

Two problems with that log statement, but fortunately it's just a cosmetic. 
My trading history shows an order for 2 bitcoins at $12.0817 placed at that time.

Sure, why not.

It sounds like this is either in C or C++. Is there a platform restriction? Or is it ANSI/ISO?

*Thanks for your interest, I've updated the original post accordingly*

Actually it's in Java.  I've tested it successfully on Ubuntu Precise 64bit.  I don't see any reason why it wouldn't run on anything with a Java 6 JVM although I may have to rebuild the jar if someone needs a 32bit version.
