How come that cryptotrader managed to fetch tick data even when btc-e was under maintenance?
Here in bitcoin charts: 2014-02-28 07:00:00, please enlighten me if I'm missing something...

Anyone has a reasonable explanation besides op is drunk?

Thanks, glad to finally take this one down, also really nice to see that the strategy I wrote a while ago has sparked some interest into ichimoku and got the algo rewrote and made quite better.
Edit: prize received, thanks pulsecat! hopefully there will be other rounds and with them more interesting and profitable strategies.

I (and maybe a few others too?) got this PM from frogDog, a new user who has no permission to post yet. He asked me to post his message in this thread, so here it is: Hey, after all the mess kugutsumen created in the contest thread of cryptotrader, I decided to take a deep look into the strategy, and I'm pretty sure, that I found the bug. When you take a look on http://ichimokutrader.com/elements.html#Chikou you see, that the Chikou should be backplaced, and in the http://ichimokutrader.com/signals.html page at the bottom you can see, that it should be compared with the price now. So to state it clearly, its nothing else but comparing the actual price with the price 28 (or whatever) days ago. Putting this into the strategy leads to following results: https://cryptotrader.org/backtests/rjPQ3BPv54wtLbzuSHowever, its not as fancy, as the results look like. Actually, they trade totally the same except on the big crash 4/10. This lead to an advantage of around 14%, that just transfered to now. And you can reassure this, all the results kugutsumen posted, differ by the exact amount, meaning his algorithm doesnt differ much as medjis. Thank you kugutsumen anyway, as I wouldn't have found it, without someone mentioning it. Until today I just read in this forum, so I'm not eligble to post anything, so it would be nice, if you can post this in the contest thread as a quote. Wow, I was quite perplexed by the claims of a bug, I thought it was in the writing of the ichimoku object (not that there isn't a bug... what the hell do I know?) not a difference in the strategy, the idea was that the chikou would give a bullish/bearish signal if it was above/below the kumo X periods past, but this looks better, thanks! |

It bought 63 @ $15.5 in the beginning mate, so just below twice the btc.

The only reasonable thing to do in view of such spectacular results is to go all in with a 21,22 ema bot |

Can you only access the price data within the testing time frame (7 days)?
It might not be enough data to bootstrap some indicators until they are reliable

Profit should be compared vs a simple hold strategy, also it should take fees into account.
And maybe begin with a balanced amount of btc and usd.
