Had a quick look through the threads. I noticed theres a few trading bots.
has anyone had any success with any of them?
I've written a few bots myself for various exchanges, so you can well consider my words as something even more insightful than the first hands experience. And no, they won't help you unless you have a good strategy. But since a good strategy always involves a good deal of intuition and manual work beyond just placing and cancelling orders (what trading bots do pretty well provided the api is more or less consistent), then the answer is a definite
no. On the other hand, if we stop talking exclusively about
trading bots, and start discussing, for example, price-tracking bots, the answer is not that straightforward...
In fact, the latter can be quite helpful in checking for an arbitrage opportunity
