I have heard many times that vortex trading is real profitable, however have yet to test for myself. I am looking to play around with a few bitcoin. Any ideas? Title: Re: Most successful trading algo Post by: zoinky on July 23, 2013, 04:10:32 AM Just listen to everyone in this forum ::)

Actually it can be profitable. If you create a bot that can detect other bots being run by idiots to do vortex trading[1], then you might be able to take advantage and trade against them[2]. [1] - Design a bot that runs vortex on real-time data, look for the patterns and then look at the markets. You might see idiots trading real coin with a vortex bot if the same patterns emerge. [2] - If you successfully detect an idiot running a vortex bot, try predicting their next move, if successful you can game it and steal their money before the owner comes online.

Trying buy low and sell high almost always made me miss the target. Also trade often, don't try to be a hero, and most importantly: Don't fight the tape.

In detail, never try to "move" the market with "strategic" orders. Each time I tried that I lost money.

For every post that says "buy", sell a little bit.

I would call it "trading into an established, or better yet: about to be established trend".
The tricky part is to a) determine correctly if a trend is in fact established, i.e. if it'll last long enough for you trade profitably, taking into account slippage and fees, and b) determine the above *slightly* earlier than the rest of the pack. My biggest problem: I trade on bitstamp, but the relevant trends are made on mtgox. Between the time it takes trends to arrive from the latter to the former, some profitable opportunities are lost.
