Instead, you can program the bot to buy a certain amount of XMR per day.

This logic is user programmable? Can you show some screenshots?

Brilliant idea.



added to OP as well.

[mmortal03]

Great! That helps. What time of day does it buy? Can this be configured?

Onemorexmr is making an "advanced mode" that will allow a lot of stuff.

Currently, the bot places a buy order below market price. So just like if you were on polo and the highest buy price was 0.0042 and it looked pretty stable there but you wanted to see if you could get a deal, you'd be like "eh, I'm gonna place a buy order at 0.0039" So thats what the bot does.

So that buy order will sit there, until someone sells you some monero for that price!

However, if that order isn't filled (say, for instance, the market is very bullish that day - it keeps going up.. so the highest buy price is now 0.0049 and your order is still 0.0039), the bot will check and go "holy crap, I haven't bought any XMR in the past 24 hours. I should buy some". The bot will cancel its order at 0.0039, and then place a new buy order, right around the highest buy price. This way someone is sure to sell to the bot, so your bot will have succeeded in buying some XMR in that day.

After that order is complete, the cycle repeats.

So that 24 hour mark is where the bot goes "did I buy something in the past 24 hours?" This 24 hour counter is chosen randomly

How long does it take to switch from buying a constant amount of XMR to spending a constant amount of BTC? In other words, after updating on the buymonero.net website, how long before the order is changed on Poloniex?

as soon as your next timewindow is reached the bot will take the new setting to buy the changed amount.

[GingerAle]

Just to clarify, the early adopter promotion is now over. Thanks all that joined during this early phase!

[onemorexmr]

Instead, you can program the bot to buy a certain amount of XMR per day.

This logic is user programmable? Can you show some screenshots?

are there any specific options you'd like to make?

atm its only possible to configure if you want to buy a specific xmr amount or just buy as many xmr as possible with a defined btc amount.

you can't define the time when the bot will act. due to poloniex limits i need to spread all requests somewhat equally through the day.

i plan to make this possible soon *tm* though - together with switching to an interval you like (eg 1xmr/1h or 1xmr/6h or something like that).

a small trick: if your buymonero account is unfunded, you may just go to polo and make a new apikey. if you use this to create a new to our site you will get a new time randomly.
if you do this: please disable your old api key on polo.

Honestly, it may be better to just keep it simple. As long as users are provided with information so that they can understand the constraints, like what you and GingerAle have provided, I think it's good.

I would be curious to know more technically how it handles daily price spikes, regarding what GingerAle said:

However, if that order isn't filled (say, for instance, the market is very bullish that day - it keeps going up.. so the highest buy price is now 0.0049 and your order is still 0.0039), the bot will check and go "holy crap, I haven't bought any XMR in the past 24 hours.

Well, here we border on disclosing too much and risking exploit (onemorexmr can elaborate more if he feels it won't disclose too much), but whats important for the switch to the "higher buy order" behavior is mostly the 24 hour clock.

In the future I think we will implement a feature to optionally disable the "higher buy order" behavior. This will cause you to potentially not accumulate XMR in a given day, but it will allow you to avoid daily price spikes.

But again, the point is that regardless of daily price spikes, you will still, on average, accumulate XMR more cheaply (especially using the "spend this amount of BTC per day).

That is unless, of course, you gobbled up a lot of XMR during the end of 2014.

Watching with interest to see the adoption of this... I'm by not means a programmer but taught myself enough python to get a quite sophisticated bot up and running on Poloniex. So always good to see what the competition is doing!

Nice to hear, why don't you post what points your bot purchased at in a few days. I'd be interested to see the results.

you love data, do you
looking forward to see your results..

but: if your results are too close to what i am really doing i will change the rate-discovery slightly.

btw. the easiest way would be to just open multiple accounts and buying huuuge amounts (huge is always better i'd say)

have a nice day and thanks for your interest

[GingerAle]

Tired of riding the monero wave? Tired of second-guessing your buying decisions? Get a bot to do it for you!!

Set up a new poloniex account, get an API key, set up a buymonero.net account, and let your bot accumulate your monero for you!!

[ciocgun]

I've lost the occasion to get some free monero.
I joined the website today.
Are in program another promo for early user?

thank you for your service
