Anyone play with this?

I am running on my shared hosting with about 0.1BTC. It seems to make a little bit.

It does log every trade on the screen and return error message.

I did not run it for a very long time. I can't tell if it's profitable.

Unfortunately, as with any automated system , you would need an extremely large sample size to determine the relative profitability (or lack there of.)

Running it in short bursts will likely give you very skewed results based on variance.

Unless you have an excellent idea of what you are doing and are willing to risk a large amount of currency to tune it (as well as deal with extended drawdowns), I would recommend staying away from such things.

Thank you for sharing.  What has your experience been with this bot?  Was it successful, did you see a profit?  How long have you had this code?  Also, I assume it does not output anything until something happens?

Some fine tuning need to be done like min/max amount. If you run it on a VPS with low latency then 100ms delay will get the bot a temp ban from BTC-E. Still a very nice code for those who want to learn.

I paid for this bot but I'm giving it to the community for free.
You need to have some amount of currency in all 3 currencies (USD/LTC/BTC) to use it. Then as you run it, your USD/LTC balance will decrement and your BTC balance will increment.

Code:

// Trade API settings
$key ''// your API-key
$secret ''// your Secret-key

// Limits for trading size (BTC)
// Setting the increment too small will have a negative effect on speed
$min_amount 0.1;
$max_amount 0.6;
$increment 0.02;

// Minimum profit in percent
// Must be higher than BTC-E fee * 3 to be profitable
$min_profit 1.0;

// Margin of price
// Trades will be executed this much higher/lower to make "sure" they go through
// 1.05 = 5 % and so on
$price_margin 1.05;

// Delay between requests (ms), check with BTC-E how high value they allow
// setting this too high could cause BTC-E to potentially block the bot.
$delay 100;

// Specify a minimum time between 2 trades (s). Whenever an inbalance between prices exists
// we want to quickly execute the FIRST trade, but let other arbitrage bots (with bigger balances)
// clean up the rest. Otherwise there seems to be big risk for losing trades.
$time_between_trades 10;
$last_trade_time 0;

// Required for BTC-E API
