If you work at "price change" consider it split in 2 separate indicators: One for buy at and below and other to sell at and above
Is more flexible to use and people wanting whole 2 things can add both indicators.
I agree also  w/ MBTY : Timeout is a very good feture to have but should act on exceptional circunstances: reset last buy/selling  at cycle end works better but probably MBTY problem is solved directly with the indicator alone "sell at or above".

About  new things: sell an buy now are very nice things and help me solve on spot a "distracted" bot: thank you
I haven't lose too much money trying MACD-MA due this buttons. I agree w/CADGuy: Seems this BOT function vs Bitcoinwisdom MACD-MA on 3 minutes interval have differences w/ same parameters.

Also bugreport.

I`m settin bot to trade 30 LTC. Here is log.
http://savepic.ru/4956431.png
Bot did not bought 30.000 LTC. It`s 29.94 (0.02% fee is 0.06 LTC)
When sell trigger was allowed bot tries sell 30.000 LTC (but in my wallet was only 29.94). Ofcourse trade was stopped and i had to sell LTC manually. Please fix trade fee calculating.

And more. Bot thinks that he does well. In fact, this is not happening. (screen from benchmark)

I suspect that bot calculating proffit also incorrect because the calculation does not take fee.

anybody here who is willing to answer my question is welcome to reply - this is not just directed at Stephan as there are many savvy members here who understand the bot and particularly its indicators well enough to answer my relatively simple question(s).

I am using the latest version 0.0.9.6 beta.

I am trying out the indicator called 'stochastic indicator' ...

I have some questions and hope somebody can answer them.

1. The "interval length" (default = 30) - is that supposed to be set to the same number as the "update timer" setting for the bot or is there no relation?
Perhaps the interval length of this indicator must simply be a multiple of the interval length? What is the relation between the two - if any?

2. I see it says "buy at 80 or higher" and "sell at 20 or lower" ... so I'm assuming that this indicator is the exact opposite of the traditional indicator called Stochastic RSI?  (it has buy at <= 20 and sell at >= 80)

3. If so, why not just use the standard Stoch RSI indicator that everybody loves and knows?

I also have some Q's regarding the MACD indicator:
1. It comes with two default params of SMA short length = 12 and SMA long length = 26. If I compare that to the MACD indicator shown on http://bitcoinwisdom.com : which has three MACD parameters of 26, 12 and 9. So two of the params correspond, but any idea what the extra param of 9 is for on bitcoinwisdom?
Are these two indicators the same?? Because i find this one on bitcoinwisdom seems to fit my trading requirements best - particularly when the data is collated into 1 hour intervals...

2. As you will know, bitcoinwisdom can show the data in intervals of 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h, 12h, 1d, 3d, 1w
and so my next question is what is the link between these intervals on bitcoinwisdom and the simple bot, i.e. HOW do i tell the bot to apply the data and indicators in terms of intervals of data corresponding to any of the above intervals shown in bitcoinwisdom charts?
At first I thought perhaps it was the "update timer" parameter in the bot, but this doesn't make sense as that is simply the time period between data refreshes - it has nothing to do with intervals for the purpose of collating data?

3. Some of the Bot indicators have interval type params - are those perhaps the same as the interval setting in bitcoinwisdom charts?

I have bought simple trade bot yesterday and am tinkering with the settings. Up to now i haven't been able to get it working properly, due to a couple of things:

(I am using Bitstamp/btcusd)

• First you have to select the market in both the trade bot tabs, or else you get a bunch of 'object reference' errors in the debug log and the currency data and graph will not be updated.
• When the bot tries to buy the order often does not get processed at the exchange, however the bot thinks it went okay. I noticed that for the trades that did not come through the debug log states: 'Order accepted, received id: 0', where a trade that does come through the received id is a proper trade id.
  The transaction log on bitstamp does not show the trades that got an id '0' back.
  
  Anyone else with the same problem?

Also, the column that displays your profit after a trade seems not to take the tradingfee into account. Is that intentional?

MtGox is not on the list of supported exchanges. As it is the largest btcusd and btceur exchange at the moment, I would like to be able to use it. Or is there a reason it is not supported?

Hi,
Dont turn both tabs on in bitstamp! One api per currency pair, there is only one pair at bitstamp. You will overload the api and get banned. Yea there are issues with bitstamp sometimes, I am not 100% how to solve them. Check the "support" tab at the bottom and see what it suggests.

I think all the problems with cryptsy are on cryptsy´s end and not the bots.

I have same problems.

Only one instance of program running, Bitstamp selected in both STB tabs, only one tab with trading activated, USD and BTC available on Bitstamp, RSI indicator with default settings and trade orders are not really accepted by Bitstamp (order id:0)

There was 6 trade orders sent during night...



no one was accepted...

I think that is a good idea.  Time outs can be unpredictable maybe.  Or at least the market can be in relation to them :-)

Any chance of of knowing how the drop loss logic works?   I still can't quite make it out.  The drop loss time out is potentially useful, but I agree with including the profit and losses in the benchmark would be useful as I still don't trust the bot or benchmarks really.

Would I be right to assume the bot wont buy if the drop loss is active?  I thought it is supposed to recover after drop loss has sold?  Surely it should buy back in towards the low point and continue?  Every benchmark I do...when the drop loss activates and the bot does nothing, leaving a loss.

Love the colour indicators btw...very useful

Bot working nicely^^

Thanks a lot!
What about my bugreport?
