Topic: Trading bot to sell (Read 1845 times)

Your bot is still profitable?
There were a lot of ups and downs since 2011:)

tldr  ur bot is only as good as its rules.

0.5% per day, i did better then that. anyone wanna buy my services  ?

 

I think it's important to highlight to everyone what automated trading means. If you think you can launch the bot and take two weeks of holiday you are (partly) wrong. An automated bot is aimed to executed your strategy in a timely manner, at specific events. When the market moves, you may have to review your strategy and implement it in the bot. It's a skill which gives you speed in execution and analysis but not a solution if you have no strategy.

This is why it's not useful that much to share about previous results as it can vary a lot in function of the rules you will implement, the present market etc. With the rules I used (and the ones still coded in this bot) I realized 0.5% a day in July as mentioned in the OP.

Hope it helps ;-)

how much (if so) did the seller make?

OK. After a 2-week exclusive agreement with someone of this forum, I am selling again this bot. Please send me a message with your offers.

Sure. Yesterday it would have bot at 12-something (minimum since a long time) and sold at buying price + 1.5%. Market was too unpredictable to do better.

i´m wondering, for example, yesterday with the fall from 13 to 11.5 and the rise again to 12.5, when did the bot sell, and when buy?

edit. u are trading with fees? means ur bot missed the opportunity to get btc for 0.01$?

You guess wrong. Actually I am not granted with the 0% fee privilege. I am trading with fees and making +0.5%/day. But yes fees and thin volatility don't go well together, you have at most one or two opportunities per day during a few minutes. The key feature of this bot is it has an algo to anticipate when the bitcoin is underpriced to sell a bit later when it comes back to a proper price.

My guess is it will no longer make money once zero-fees go away on mtgox.  Making money is relatively easy when the bid/ask spread exceeds the fees.

Haha cool because I wasn't about to give that away for 1 BTC 

 so . . . not interested

Thanks for your offer, but no.

No idea. Exclusive or non-exclusive. But not open-source in anyway.

1 BTC offer.

under which licence will you sell this ?

Hi all

OK so I have decided to stop trading Bitcoins because I prefer to put my money back on to the Forex. This is why I am selling my bot.

Features
- Three months of testing and tuning (before and after the crash) based on algos built on three months of data
- Requirements: PHP server with MySQL, crontab and curl.
- Bot dedicated to Mtgox. But can easily be adapted to other exchanges like Tradehill.
- Average performance +0.5%/day these last weeks (tuning the parameters every week only)
- Written in PHP. I was about to code it in Python but actually it is fast enough like that. 500ms to take a decision.
- Analyzes the order book (depth audit) every minute. Far better than bots based on the ticker only
- Check the balance and buy/sell a % of the amount available when a buy/sell signal arise
- Includes a pricing module. When this bot buys/sells, the price is calculated in order to make the exact right offer (not at the ticker price)
- Stores history in a MySQL db and analyzes the weekly (or monthly) history to take decisions
- Signals: minimum, maximum, under/over priced bitcoin, growth rates (MACD, mobile averages)
- Portfolio analysis: this bot evaluates the value of Bitcoins bought at different times in order to get an average buying price and calculate profitability.
- Console log available with 60s update
- 3-level buy/sell rules
- Stop-loss parameter (I use -1%)

I can eventually install this bot on your server. This offer is non-exclusive but we can discuss exclusivity if you want.
