Well don't I feel silly!
That might do the trick - running now.

What are your Bid Logic/Ask Logic settings for VWAPCross?
Bid: VWAPCross_Up Ask VWAPCross_Down Polling Interval: 30 sec Min BTC/Trade: 0.01 Mas BTC/Trade: 0.1 Min Currency: 1 Max Currency: 10 Minimum ticker size for trend following trade decisions: 24 Maximum ticker age for trend following trade decisions (in minutes): 90 Number of ticks used to calculate short Moving Average: 25 Number of ticks used to calculate short Moving Average Convergence-Divergence: 12 Number of ticks used to calculate long Moving Average Convergence-Divergence: 26 Number of MACD values used to calculate MACD Signal Line: 9 |

Working with the preferences - and I have a few high level comments/questions
MACD and EMA are both good indicators for the 'greater' trend - history shows, to me at least, good trend prediction from MACD 9 on short12 and long26 plots - however, the time interval between datapoints needs to be roughly 30mins or greater to capture the trend. With this method you substantially sacrifice reaction time. Shorter lengths - say 30sec-5 minutes fill up the 9, 12 and 26 sample buffers too quickly - especially when the market is this flat. You end up with a 5-30 minute window to show an MACD trend - when I would think you would want a longer time interval. Am I thinking right here? I suppose I do not understand how a short polling interval (the suggested 15-60seconds) is a viable setting for EMA or MACD trending.
My next question is regarding the VWAPCross algorithm. How does the polling interval and maximum ticker age affect results. It seems to me that a short ticker time would react faster to the market, but yield riskier trades. Conversely a longer ticker age is affected less by a coming trend since it allows more samples - and potentially misses a trend altogether and trades too late.
IS my train of thought in the right direction here?
I let ATP run in live mode using only VWAPCross - with the preferences suggested by Nova previously. I found trades to be too frequent and got eaten up by fees. I think a more complex logic is necessary - but am finding that MACD at the same 30s polling interval can swap between 'up' and 'down' back to back quite often.

Does the arbitrage calculate opportunities between exchanges, or just between currencies on a single exchange?
I am certain it is inner-exchange only. Logistically it would be much more difficult to set up a reliable arbitrage between exchanges. Even doing it manually the process is plagued with roadblocks and long transfer times. |

EDIT: I have updated the profit reporting of Gekko, it now looks like this: 2013-06-04 00:02:30 (INFO): ADVICE is to HOLD @ 120.750 (0.861)
2013-06-04 00:02:30 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) original simulated balance: 222.430 USD
2013-06-04 00:02:30 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) current simulated balance: 219.378 USD
2013-06-04 00:02:30 (INFO): (PROFIT REPORT) simulated profit: -3.052 USD (-1.372%) Liking the new look! |

Been watching this thread progress and am certainly very excited to see this come to fruition. If you are looking for guinea pigs *ahem* testers - more than happy to help and provide input/feedback. PM me if needed.
I do also like the pay per %profit structure - shows faith from you the developer and for the customer it mitigates the upfront cost of "spending money to make money".

Very impressed. Throwing away my spreadsheet and adopting this - thank You!

Stephan has been very helpful and responsive - the software was delivered quickly and I was able to set it up without a problem.
The product works as advertised on the software website. Using an RSI-30 algorithm it successfully places buy and sell orders according to the settings of your choosing. Using a small amount of BTC (0.1) I am letting it run unattended with a set trade size of 0.01 BTC to test its capabilities . I have noticed that while the profit safety feature is nice to have - if the market is down from the bot's previous buy it will block all trades until the market comes back up. This can leave you stuck in the 'bought' position at the time of a crash (like we saw the other day of ~$10. Having a feature to 'crash' protect could also be useful.
Sounds like there will be an update soon - looking forward to it.
Testing continues...

After a day of two tinkering, mainly do to my very limited Linux knowledge, I got AidoATP running on my Raspberry Pi  My main steps, problems, solutions: 1) Java I'm using Raspbian hard float ABI witch made it a bit hard to find out Java. I've used https://jdk8.java.net/fxarmpreview/ This is a beta of Java 8 for ARM processors but is running stable. Move /java from my homedir to /usr/local Added in PATH /usr/local/java/bin Added JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java/bin 2) Certificates Downloaded the certificate for https://data.mtgox.com website echo -n | openssl s_client -connect data.mtgox.com:443 |sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > mtgoxData.pem Added the mtgox data cert to the java keystore keytool -importcert -file mtgoxData.pem -alias mtgoxData Show the certificate chain : openssl s_client -connect data.mtgox.com:443 -showcert Copy&paste the 2 certs between the BEGIN CERT en END CERT lines in 2 files : StartComInterCA.pem and startComCA.pem Added the chain cert to the CA java store: keytool -keystore /usr/local/java/jre/lib/security/cacerts -importcert -file StartComInterCA.pem -alias startComInterCA
keytool -keystore /usr/local/java/jre/lib/security/cacerts -importcert -file startComCA.pem -alias startComCA
3) Succes ! Having issues getting MtGox to allow access upon starting - for those that are Java-noobs like myself - suggestions? or is compatibility with MtGox have to wait till the next update?Fixed: Installed the cert located at http://codebistro.com/2010/03/25/adding-cacert-to-the-java-trusted-store/ |

This may have a simple answer - but I have been searching for answer without avail.
I sent some BTC via MtGox and would like to track/confirm it/find the sending btc address. I have the transaction ID from MtGox but thats it.

Stephan,
I am interested in utilizing the promotion you have running. In turn I will try out your software and post findings.
I have sent 0.6BTC to the address listed on your website.
I have emailed you my email address for delivery of the files.
Looking forward to trying out your product!
Thanks

Anyone else get double divs on the TAT PT?

i bought five last year (10USD each) from a friend who put all his money into Bitcoin that time. He did good think, didn't he?  :D If only we all could have had the same intuition! |

I've been buying on Coinbase for the past month.
If you can deal with the delay - its a reliable outlet. Withdraws directly from your bank acct.

Smart moves.. i was trying to get asic miner shares..but instead i ordered from bfl. ill be waiting patiently while trying to buy some avalons;]
If you believe in AM and think they can keep up the 20-25% network share for the next few or even many months, then even at 2.5btc a share (or the 0.025btc micro-passthroughs) are worth looking at. How is the avalon front? I haven't kept up - when are they making the next batch avail for order? |

@simonsays
If it looks to good to be true.....
Luckily I came across your post. I did consider it a scam because it was too cheap but then I discovered the chat option and `had a chat`. On the other side of the chat I had `Candy` which was sweet. I asked specific questions like were are you located? `Candy` declined to answer. Looked up the address on Google Please note that the address is one word. No sign so its new.
Thanks again to poster for alerting me to this creature.
Please note that at this time the chat function is disabled on that site after I enlightened `Candy` as to my opinions of such activity. Suggest you do the same since `chat` is used to bridge the trust issue.
Thanks again Simonsays
That Candy is a sly one isn't she? I'll admit that it was quite late and I had had a few brews - otherwise I don't think I would have fallen for the trap. Glad you saw my post and were able to avoid it! Cheers. |

If you got into BTC 1-3 or many more months ago you've seen your holdings rocket hundreds or even thousands of %. Not to mention if you got in early on Asicminer.
Hindsight is always 20/20 and its easy to say 'Doh I was gonna put some money there and I didn't' - I think many of us - including myself - have been doing exactly that over the past month.
Personally - I'm getting into the game late and slowly acquiring BTC as a diversification of my portfolio. I think mining is a truly unique and fascinating foundation on which bitcoins exist - but sadly by the time my BFL shipment arrives it won't be much more than a conversation piece chugging in a few dollars at a time.
You can take some of the risk out of BTC as an investment by writing yourself a bot (or using one of the few opensource ones currently available through these forums) that will automatically sell all your BTC in case of a major (or minor) price drop. This way you can 'ride the wave' as bitcoin gains popularity and hopefully continues to rise - while mitigating some of the risk using a bot. This of course - puts a lot of trust in a program and would require holding your funds in a hot wallet (as opposed to a cold wallet offline) which in itself lies a greater risk.
Personally I have 50% in Asicminer and 50% on exchanges.

I do not think they are a scam - instead a poorly managed group that is over-promising and under-delivering.
With that said - I still have a Jally on order from Feb. We'll see how long it actually takes to get here - or if.

Just an FYI to you all - you'll see them spamming posts/boards. Bitcoin arr is a SCAM. Beware Friendly chat until you make a purchase - then they disappear and your cheap bitcoins never appear.. imagine that. Has anyone dealt with Paypal claims involving bitcoins?  |
