Hi I've been using Nemosminer for a few weeks now and I am really liking it.
I was hoping that you would be open to suggestions of how to perhaps improve it.
The miner switches algos very often but by the time those rewards mature and make it through the exchange the momentary increase in estimated BTC/day that made the miner switch has long past and you get very little of those rewards.
Could it be possible to have a variable in the start bat that would set how often the miner checks profitability and how often it switches algos?
Ideally I'd like to be able to set it to check every few minutes but to only switch every hour based on what on average was most profitable during the past hour. I think that working on those longer term averages will give a better chance of getting a more stable return by the time the rewards clear the exchange.
So to sum up:
NemosMiner should switch only every hour, and should switch to what was most profitable on average for the past hour.
no... im no going to make it work off hour averages or 24hour averages its works off the realtime stats...
i recommend letting benchmark complete, then edit start.bat and change (-Interval 90 to - Interval 300) thats how i get the best results out of it...
Basing a mining decision on past performance is indeed not the way to go at all. You need to exploit current low diff. There is a clear problem however with the fact that coins need time to mature and more time again to be exchanged, so prices will usually have moved massively (against us, mostly) and closed that arbitrage window.
Yesterday I ran Nemosminer for 36 hours with payout in DGB. I monitore the last 24. My rig got approx 500 coins paid out. That's unfortunately not much. I switched to mining DGB only for 24 hours and already know it's going to turn out better.
As much as it annoys me, the problem with the switching software is that if coins that are mined move sideways or downwards, you lose.
In order for an auto-switching software to outperform in crap markets, it needs to be smarter, i.e. anticipating market moves (technical analysis, trend recognition etc) in order to find a way to alleviate the delay caused by maturing and exchanging the coins.
