Hi Kuroth Smiley,
   I'm glad you are enjoying your bot, it makes us very happy when people both understand and enjoy our products Smiley.

We don't have a fixed ETA on the back testing after the release of V2, but like everything we have been working on, it will be brought out the door as fast as we can make it while maintaining quality standards. Back testing is the feature that I personally most want to see on V2 actually.

I like the idea of higher time frames, I read Gomboo's post and I think it's worth it to add those; the problem however, is that the EMA model requires 144 data points, so, if we where to use a 24 hour frame, that is 144 days of data that we need and we are not sure whether the exchange API's will throttle us or if we can actually hold data that far back. We'll take a better look at it and let you know. Please know we are taking a serious look at this.

Please let us know if you need anything at all, we are here to make your experience as fun and profitable as possible Smiley.

Pablo.

I have been learning how the bot works by watching it make decisions. I think there is room for improvement with just a few extra features.

Is there any chance that the tables that show up showing the Time, Price, Diff could be outputted in some other form? CSV or just as a regular HTML web page that gets re-generated with ongoing measurements of diff?

The reason I ask is because the bot gives valuable information that can make it extremely trivial to make a profit at any setting. The issue is the chrome plugin seems to generate a valid web page with "all the details" but the page itself is not directly accessible.

I am a fan of automation and would very much love to get my hands on the data spit out by the B-Bot in "popup.html". I have been trading manually alongside the B-Bot in a different account and that has netted me about 10 to 15 BTC in the last two days. But the B-Bot has actually lost .3 BTC in a test account (originally with 4.5 BTC) in the same time frame.

-------------------------

The reason I ask is because I noticed that the B-Bot pays close attention to the differences between the two EMA lines to determine the crossover. Both going up and down. The shape of the curve and the steepness can be determined from simply looking at the difference values. What I haven't seen yet is any form of the bot tracking what the original entry point was. (Maybe it does, but it doesn't give any indication of what that value might be)

I assumed the "Stop Trading Loss" feature was implemented as a way to trigger some kind of percentage where the bot would execute a trade. The only problem is it does not appear to work. (I am unsure)

I place very low settings on the bot to see if it would trigger trades even with a drop of 1%+ (my stop loss setting) and it seems to follow the curve even when it drops more than 1% (in my favor).

So there seems to be a very critical feature missing from B-Bot v2 beta. It follows EMA fine but it loses plenty of trading opportunities. (as evidence on my other account where I gained nearly 15 BTC by follow the EMA lines manually)

--------------------

If I could pull out that table data as a popup.html that keeps tabs on the diff data it would be a godsend. Is there any way to pull it open in any (full featured) browser?

I just noticed a bug.
2503  Economy / Services / Re: Arbitrage with guaranteed profits with Bitcoin-Brokers. on: July 15, 2013, 04:19:35 AM
I'll reply here since you've made this new thread.

And the award for best solution goes to..........

That could work!
The problems start to show up when you consider that transaction volumes large enough to make this worth the effort are very likely to cause banks to close one's account.

Somebody with enough fiat and bitcoins to act as a constant liquidity provider for your site is going to run into a significant problem - a personal bank account in the US that receives cash deposits from random people all over the country and wires out all received funds to an offshore bitcoin exchange is very quickly going to be identified as a high-risk account, probably reported for suspicious activity, and surely closed.

What if you instead arbitraged between people who want to buy bitcoins and traders who want to cash out their fiat from BTC-e and Bitstamp (or any exchange that allows account-to-account transfer of fiat balances)?

Bitcoin-Brokers opens accounts on both of those exchanges and announces that they will buy fiat balances at a 1% premium (the person selling fiat receives 1% more in their bank account than they sold). Bitcoin-Brokers can then locate a bitcoin buyer who can deposit cash in the appropriate bank account.

Once that transaction is successfully completed, Bitcoin-Brokers can buy bitcoins with the fiat balance, give the bitcoin buyer their funds, and keep 1% + the spread between the exchange they are buying on and Mt Gox in bitcoins as profit.

Note that as your volume increases the act of you buying bitcoins will tend to bring down the spread.

If you need more people willing to deposit fiat into bank accounts, you can also service people trying to move fiat into the exchanges.
Or Bitcoin Brokers could also average out the median rate for different percentages into one unique offer.

For example, if they have 30 sellers who give them 100 BTC to sell on their brokerage site:

If,
10 BTC are at MtGox +10%
and the rest are MtGox +5%

Then they should sell all of it at the average median rate rather than:

90BTC at +5%
and
10BTC at +10%

=================

It might possibly make the sales go much faster.

Have you been sued yet PG?

(You scoundrel!)
2506  Economy / Services / Re: B-BOT: New BTC-E and MtGox EMA Trading Platform on: July 15, 2013, 12:52:50 AM
I just purchased the software.

Currently taking it out on a spin to see how it handles. I just finished setting up the API settings, but it says "Could not retrieve funds" when I hover over the button in chrome.

(By the way, does this extension work on a (Chrome) Android based Tablet?

2508  Other / Off-topic / Re: Petition to get BF Labs Inc. to sue me. Please sign. on: July 14, 2013, 02:18:30 AM
The following is not an opinion made by myself. I present it as fact.

BF Labs Inc. (Butterfly Labs) owned my Sonny Vleisides is nothing but a crock and should be avoided at all cost. Anybody who currently has a product on pre-order that's not expected to be shipped any time soon should ask for an immediate refund before they close down shop and the main principals leave the country.

Again, the above I present as fact and not as an opinion.

Anybody who believes that BFL now has the right to sue me, please sign this thread.

If in 10 days from this day I do not receive a letter from their lawyers informing me in no uncertain terms that they are suing my ass, then the above is definitely proven to be fact.

I will not judge a single person who signs this thread. The more signatures the better regardless of how you feel about me.

Thank you, in advance, for participating.
I will sign the petition with a blood oath!

Phinnaeus Gage, you scoundrel, you should get sued to high heaven!

Alright, listen up, no one say anything about BFL after the above comment.

No, not even it's management or any forms of [perceived] incompetence therein.

Let him bask in the glowing irony of his own statement and circumstance.

Shhh....just let it be.

Before or after they request a refund and realize it doesn't do what they expected it would? (And therefore never turn it on...thereby...possibly...not adding to nor "securing" the network any further)

Perhaps, large en masse "sell offs" of hashing hardware at deeply discounted prices to one or two individuals with deep pocket books might even make the network less secure.

---------------

You are right, you are not advocating that people are getting a good deal. What would you "call it" if this were the case? (i.e. a bad deal for the customer)

Choose one word to describe that practice. (and no, Free Market is not one word)

P.S. Do you sell any AM hardware by any chance? (in the interest of full disclosure)

If so, do you sell the hardware at a price that even I would consider it beneficial to your customers?
2517  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: BFL (BF Labs Inc; Butterfly Labs) officially refusing to refund their customers. on: July 13, 2013, 06:14:42 AM
they can just ship you a box of fans real quick and then put you in warranty hell

True, and that will make for a great "unboxing" video.  I don't expect to ever receive a product from BFL, but I'm not laying down for them.

Everyone seems focused on lighting a fire under BFL.  I say, light the fire under PayPal and maybe they can help BFL find their checkbook.


I am with you, what did the fraud department say they would do next?
2518  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: BFL (BF Labs Inc; Butterfly Labs) officially refusing to refund their customers. on: July 12, 2013, 11:59:01 PM
I placed my order with BFL over a year ago, at this point it just makes me laugh when I think about it, I guess I expect that some day it will show up but we are going on 13 months now...  we are past the point of ridiculous.

In my opinion, if you place an order with BFL now, your hardware will be useless by the time you get it (due to extremely high difficulty). There really is no point.
You spent 1/50th of your life waiting for that BFL hardware. How does it feel compared to your Avalon purchase time?
2519  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: The price of New Blade and Mini Blade was announced by rockxie on: July 12, 2013, 11:51:19 PM
The free market makes no guarantees that the buyer is in anyway informed or fully aware enough of whether the product being sold will actually do what it is being purchased to do.

It only stipulates that given enough competitors, the end result is that products will become cheaper (not necessarily better).

------------------------

There are giant holes the size of kansas city in the free market idea. (not that I am generally against it)

If you don't think I am saying something truthful...try sitting on your cars plastic bumper and see how many hundreds of dollars it costs you to get it repaired.  Wink

Cheaper =/= better.
2520  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: The price of New Blade and Mini Blade was announced by rockxie on: July 12, 2013, 11:45:45 PM
I've seen more than a few people kick up a stink about blade prices, not realizing that a lot of the numbers they're seeing are down payments.

I've also seen a stink about the price being too high.  People either believe in free markets or they don't.  Are they selling out?  Yes then the price isn't too high.  If the price is too high then they won't be able to move units at that price and they will lower the price.  Right now ASICMiner faces minimal competition.   Avalon has sold a lot of chips but not a lot of complete units.  If/when Avalon board builders start to sell in bulk and <gasp> even have units available for immediate delivery ASICMiner will be forced to lower their price ... or they won't sell anything.

Trust the power of open fair markets people.
The free market is an abstract idea.

Just because the free market is in action does not automatically mean that buyers are getting a good deal. It may turn out that way, but it doesn't necessitate that it will turn out that way.

The idea of a free market can be both good and bad to either party (sellers or buyers). If the conditions of the market are skewed it can be destructive through various pre-set conditions and/or even helpful if conditions are right.

=======================
An example of a destructive free market:

If a product is being sold at a price point where there are enough fools to "buy out" the supply in a free market. The fools will get burned.

These fools, once they part with their money, will not be making any positive return at a specific price point. As long as there are enough fools, the market is sustained without change. Leaving non-fools deprived of a particular product at a "useful" and workable price point.

If there is enough "demand" from new fools to replace old fools, the market can sell a product that never actually does anything useful to anyone. It will just move wealth from one pocket into another. Never serving it's ultimate purpose to a useful degree.

There is always a market for idiots to buy and sell things.
