leonArdo version 3.4 released!Complete redesign of leonArdo's underlying memory allocation model- New high-performance underlying memory allocator
- Avoidance of most dynamic memory-allocation overhead
- Guarantees much longer lifetime when run 24/7
- Yields a drastic reduction in CPU usage
- See note “Regarding memory usage” below
Added an extra error-handling layer to mArgin-maker’s state-engine- Improved handling in case of API calls whose outcome is unknown
- In error-situations, the newly introduced "Go for it!"-option can be checked to enable mArgin-maker
-> to wait 5 minutes and re-check whether it can find out whether the previous erroneous action was successful
-> to continue its operations assuming a most likely outcome based on all market-data available
- Please note, that the decision made by mArgin-maker here is not always 100% sophisticated so under certain circumstances this can lead to unwanted behavior such as double-orders
Added Stop-Loss to the mArgin-maker bot (beta)- Can be enabled by simply checking the new Stop-Loss option
- Define a lower price threshold which causes mArgin-maker to cancel its active sell order and to sell the amount immediately before stopping the bot
- Use intuitive drag&drop to alter the Stop-Loss price
- Stop-Loss price can be defined absolutely or relative to the last performed buy order
- Note that this is an emulated Stop-Loss feature which relies on leonArdo have a connection to the Exchange API. It doesn't place a real Stop-Loss order on the exchange. The main reason for this is that most Exchange APIs don't support it and we were forced to write our own leonArdo emulated version.
Added new annotation to mArgin-maker that visualizes its action history- Follow what your bot did more easily
- Hover to see detailed information about actions it performed
- Easily assign trades to the strategy
Further changes:- Further optimizations to reduce CPU load
- Added small plots to the tooltip of the network-connection indicator (bottom right) that shows the history of leonArdo’s memory usage and network connection stats.
How can you get your copy?If you are an existing customer you can simply click on the "update available" link on the leonArdo login screen and download this version.
Or if you are new just head over to
website and click through to our Products section.
You can also download a demo version of leonArdo from the website to try before you buy.
Check out a screenshot of the mArgin maker bot's new Stop-Loss functionality. Here we see a relative Stop-Loss setting of 1.62%:
Regarding memory usage:Please note that the Windows task manager (or comparable tools for Linux and Mac) does not provide a reliable estimate of an application's actual memory usage. That is, even though leonArdo (and all other applications) might seem to use more and more memory over time this is not necessarily caused by an actual memory leak. Instead, modern operating systems use several highly optimized layers of memory handlers that try to minimize memory fragmentation while exploiting as much memory as possible (Interested readers could start reading more on this topic here:
