Thanks!

Butter Bot's back-testing capabilities are great, but the results are optimised for USD which can make it difficult to compare to a buy-hold strategy.

I've put together a simulation which mimics Butter Bot's trading strategy to hopefully give everyone a better idea of 2 things:

• The "best" short and long EMA parameters
• The actual increases you would have seen versus buy-hold

Thus far I've only run the simulation on btc-e trades. The 1 min trade frequency simulations take a long time to complete and given my Macbook wasn't a particularly willing participant with the other simulations they're not included.

Essentially every possible combination of short/long EMA between 1-120 are included. Thresholds and tick offset have been fixed to the recommended values.

The results are contained in a number of CSV files with short EMA vertical and long EMA horizontal. The results are BTC optimised given 1BTC was invested at the start of the period. ie. a value of 1.9 means you invested 1BTC and had 1.9BTC (or USD equivalent) at the end. This is also what your return would have seen versus buy-hold.

Check out the results and enjoy

The primary goals of this project are to build a highly secure and reliable exchange that can cope with the demands we have recently seen and beyond. I have high level designs which take these factors into account with a heavy emphasis on reducing the attack surface and scalability.

I've also considered a number of policies including the use of cold-storage of private keys and internal use of multi-signature addresses.

What features do you think would aid in building a great exchange?

Not at this stage, but thanks for the offer

I'm looking for people with complimentary skills to co-found a new Bitcoin Exchange.

My skill set is largely technical oriented in the area of IT infrastructure and coding. I'm looking for other entrepreneurial people with skills in coding, web design, finance, advertising and public relations to share in this project. Like me, you should have a passion for all things Bitcoin and its future.

The company / cooperative would be responsible for building and managing a trusted, secure, reliable, resilient and scalable exchange.

If you're interested in becoming a part of this venture please PM me with your details (name, country, e-mail etc) and where you could fit into the team. Depending on the response I'll setup a forum or mailing list.

Cheers,
Bowdie

Hi all! I've been in Bitcoins since 2010, first mining in 2011 and now accepting Bitcoins as a merchant.

I've been Bitcoin mining since 2010 and have been accepting it as a payment method since 2011. I would like to post about the development of a Bitcoin related software development project to gain feedback from other established users.

It's stored in the same location as the wallet file. See below link for OS specific info.
