But the btc-e bot must stop the order, if there's no profit! Not just buy the btc at any price! It has to know the data from the gox bot?

Uhm...sorry, I don't get it...

Let's say, I want to do arb from btc-e to gox. I buy btc at btc-e and sell at gox. What matters is the difference of the price at the 2 exchanges, so no bot can place an order without knowing about the other bot?

Or did I misunderstand the whole concept?

Pardon my ignorance...

I can do some java, php, cake, mysql and data modeling, if it helps...

How do these bots communicate the total funds to know if arb is feasable?

So I had this idea for a retro-game, but there's one problem: cheating by scripting.

If you have a good workaround, we'd be much further...

Uase java-config to set the default java version. Or maybe it's enough to set JAVA_HOME to java 7. I don't know this mac stuff, sorry.

Google says:

So you have java 6 and java 7 installed, but you use java 6 for aido.

java -version

returns what version?

Java should work everywhere...

But it's not the actual app...just the API implementations...

Maybe Aido...

My stuff can do various coin pairs.

I already released some API implementations:

Maybe you can use it...

Sounds very cool...

I use Swing for my app but also added a server mode, that should be controlled by a mobile app at some point.

I only use Linux, so vb is not for me ...

But phonegap is just html and javascript, so very easy to program. You might want to take a look ...

Problem might be that you still have the previously installed version selected as default. On linux use java-config to select the version you want.

Use a recent java version.

I'm working on such stuff, but don't have any background on technical trading, so I focus on arb for now...

Are you a good trader? Looking for a collab...

I implemented the old btc-e style just to avoid mtgox live...

I don't have any banking/trading background, so candlestick is strange to me...

I did something similar with the depth (using phonegap):

Mods for mtgox are really minimal.

I work on some java trading stuff and released my API implementations:

With this concept, you can just add new exchanges as modules. As an example, this trade dialog doesn't use any exchange methods directly:

When a new module for an exchange is added, you can trade there.

Na vielleicht kannst Du andere Sachen. Trading Strategien erarbeiten, oder so...

Schwierig. Du brauchst ja ein Programm, was diese Lib nutzt.

Was könntest Du denn beitragen? Vielleicht können wir irgendwie kooperieren?
