It makes me sad and pissed off that so many smart people here (me included!) get run over by trading.
I'm interested in putting together some quant tools, some portfolio management and position sizing tools, etc, etc, and working with other people here, so that we can have some education to move us away from gambling towards real wealth creation (a la a hedge fund type system)-- probably in a something like a club, at first. I have to program quite a bit of architecture first, so it's a ways off. The tools would allow us to essentially customize our approaches and handle multiple API's on multiple coins and exchanges. You could say I'm just past the 'napkin drawing' stage.
Would anyone be interested in that sort of thing?

I am already building this and it is almost done.
Hmm, something about great minds... Are you interested in collaboration? I'm not a quant, but I see that there a many tools lacking in this space.
You can check it out. It is not quite done yet, but I am very close. Will want to get some beta testers together for launch in 2014.

Great! Very nice! I love the BTC community (now to just get a job at a BTC company).
This is a wonderful start-- I'm interested to see how far you go with portfolio management! I had some ideas that were quite different, but certainly will use bots. And, I'd love to beta, if you'd put me on your list?
Yeah for sure. If you want to you can hit the register link and setup an account. Not sure how experienced you are with requesting MtGox API.
You can visit this link for instructions. I will elaborate on these instructions when I have time.

In the instruction page you will see that it asks you to add btc funds to your traderbotz account. You will not need to do this for beta testing. I will make your account have unlimited trades during beta phase.
Still at work now, but I will upgrade your account in a few hours when I get home. It may be tomorrow before the trading begins.
