-In your opinion, what is the best trading bot service/platform? I have seen many creating their own, and i can create my own if i put time into it. of course it wont be nearly as good/efficient as something like cryptohopper, but what is your best website for trading bots? factor in price, efficiency, ease of use, etc.
I use some open-source bot in the past, and most of them work fine as long as the strategy is set correctly. That being said, I've seen Gunbot and many others being mentioned in this forum, so you might want to check them out. It's absolutely okay if you go with the one you're comfortable the most with, so you know how to set up your trading.
-Are trading bots worth it? do they actually produce good money or are they just scams? should one just manually trade every few days instead of paying monthly fees for a bot?
It depends on you. If you can use them then sure, if not focus on leveling up your trading skills instead. A trading bot is just a tool and not a magic box that gives you money.
-in your experience with trading bots, what is the best strategy? please explain and then, factoring time, investment and effort, how much money could be generated off of each strategy. For 100, daily, weekly, monthly profit. For 1,000, daily, weekly, monthly profit. for 10,000, daily, weekly, monthly profit with each strategy.
That's asking too much I believe. The best strategy is the one that works for you and nobody knows, because if anyone knows about it then they'll have the same pattern of buy & sell which in turn decrease your profits.
-what is the best exchange to use for trading? lowest fees, availability of coins, and speed are all factors.
What are you using right now? Most major exchanges (centralized ofc) like Binance, Poloniex, Coinbase etc share the same features. You might want to use Binance most of the time as they've lots of alts (compared to others) and decent liquidity.
-if i use an efficient strategy using something like cryptohopper, and investing a thousand US dollars, how much can i expect to make in a month?
Nobody knows. Again, it depends on your strategy and probably your luck too.
-this is a strategy i had in mind which involves investing 1 whole bitcoin, and then depending on the drop and rise of the btc market, switch between btc and tether. meaning, i invest 1 btc at a time that its worth 10k. then, after 24 hours, btc is now worth 11k. the bot exchanges that btc into tether, a stable coin. after 24 more hours, btc drops to 10k again. the bot exchanges from tether to 1 btc exactly, keeping the rest of the money in tether. then btc rises and drops, and i earn more money and so on. once im ready to cashout, i simply exchange the tether to my bank account/credit card. is this strategy possible? if it is, is it worth doing considering exchange and network fees?
I'm not sure I follow your strategy but it sounds like you go all-in first, and 'hope' that BTC will rise first so you'll have some tether. After that, you switch tether back and forth with bitcoin. What would you do if BTC drops first instead?
I don't think it's a good strategy. I think you should stick to percentage gains and use chart pattern instead of pricing points as it doesn't fully show the market trend and prone to fake out.
