margin terminal is now FREE - bots for over 30 exchanges

[7unkrat]

Newcomer Question,
Whats a good stable market to run the bot in with not a lot of big swings?
I am looking at DOGE at the moment and CLAM. They seem pretty stable. Only looking at a stable 2% gain.

Any tips from the pro's?

Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't touch Doge, buy wall and sell walls are far too large for your order to get settled, Clam looks good except for its not that stable atm, nice 20% drops every week or so in what looks like a declining market.
In regards to what works, not sure if your going to get many ppl giving advice on the bots usage, rather frustratingly there is a common idea that the strategy wont work if told to others.
Try SALT, BRX

Thnx.

It's good to share trading info with each other if we are using the same bot, imo. Are there only the 5 tutorial videos? I'm looking for a more text based tutorial or wiki on how the use everything in the program.

There are some third party videos available on Youtube:

We are also working on providing new videos and more info.

All the best,

Hello,

I purchased the software and it runs great on my mac...  I download it on my Windows 10 machine and It won't sync with my exchange.  I type in all the API keys then I click login....  nothing happens.  No initializing bar or anything.  It's like it freezes up.  I've downloaded both versions for windows and I also added the program to my firewall, it always does the same thing... Please help.

What firewall software are you using? There are known problems with antivirus software, Bitdefender is causing the most problems there.
And are you sure you copied the full api and secret into the login window?

All the best,

Thanks for the Quick reply!

I'm just using Windows Firewall and Windows defender which I tried a few times with them both off.  Yes I put in the correct keys I tried over 10 times because the keys never save since It sticks on the login process.  I will reboot and try again to see what happens.

I tried rebooting and tripled checked both API keys...  I turned off the firewall and virus protection.  It's doing the same thing.  I click on Login and it becomes un-clickable with no signs of trying to login. No error messages or blue login status bar just stops and the login cannot be clicked again.

Did you already agree to the terms? Sometime the terms hide in the background for some reason.
Did you check the key/secret for leading or trailing spaces?

Evening.

My client won't show the following exchanges their currency pairs:
Poloniex, bitrex, huobipro

I'm using Poloniex myself, their returnCurrencies API endpoint does return a boatload of correcJSON for me(https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnCurrencies).
Here's what curls out of it https://pastebin.com/1yStyxNq

Hi,

on which OS are you using leonArdo? Are you running on Linux?

All the best,

  Rene

A forked version of Debian 8.
https://poloniex.com/public?command=return24hVolume endpoint also completely works.

On some linux systems there is a problem with the libSSL.
You could try the alternative installer: www.marginsoftware.de/downloads/run-leonArdo.sh

All the best,

I got it to work!  I ran it as administrator and that seemed to fix all the issues.  Thanks for all your help

Perfect! A permissions issue?

Anyway, great you are up and running!

Hi,
I would like to know how the stop and trailing-stop functionality added to Bitfinex works...
Thanks for all

They are native orders on the Bitfinex exchange.
The Documentation can be found here:

https://support.bitfinex.com/hc/en-us/sections/115001100909-Order-Types

All the best,

  Rene

Thanks but I dont know how to set the buy/sell order and the stop-loss together ....
Cheers !!!

They are just another order type. You need to choose one and then decide whether you are in buy mode or sell mode.

All the best,
Jonathan

How fast does this bot trade and keep charts updated with bittrex? Is it as fast as being directly on the bittrex site, or is there a delay/lag in the order book, charts, buys and sells?

Is it faster than the delay between coinigy/bittrex?

Lastly, why does Windows warn me that your demo is dangerous and I should not run it.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I can address only the first one. From my personal experience it is easier and more responsive to use than the site. I believe the API is extremely fast. If you use the demo you will be able to see subtle differences between them in the sense that leonArdo is ahead of what they are displaying on the charts, however brief. Today Bittrex appeared overloaded and sluggish.

HI Guys. I'm really loving LeonArdo. I now have it running on a Linux VPS after some initial troubles setting it up.

Still trying to learn the best way to get a profit out of it - so far any small to medium gains it does make seem to get wiped out by one big dip in one of the pairs it's working on.

On the margin maker bot for example I'm struggling to get the right parameters set so that a 10-15% dip in value doesn't stop the bot. I'm posting two examples - in both I set a stop loss of around 5-8% and a negative minimum margin of -1.0% - -2.% but it seems the bot ignored the dropping price completely until it reached the stop-loss value.

How can I best set the stop loss and negative minimum effective gain % so that the bot keeps trading effectively even after a 10=15% drop in price?

Ended up running tightVNC on a VPS to fix my shittyslow internet connection.

Runs like a charm :p

EDIT:
Does this application make use of multiple cores?

Yeah I ended up running a VNC on a DigitalOcean VPS for basically the same reason. Jonathan said earlier that a dual core CPU would be optimal. I'm currently running it on 1 core, 3GB memory and it seems fine once it's running with around 5-6 pairs. The GUI can be a bit slow when I'm initiating pair strategies, but once it's all set its fine.

once I figure out how to stop it making losses on big dips and it actually starts earning it's keep I will probably upgrade to a 2 core VPS.

Is there any way to navigate a large list of coins in Leonardo easily? The list at the top is not good at all. Clunky and slow.

As a day trader, it is critical to be able to navigate dozens or even a hundred or more pairs instantly.

I'm finding it impossible to do that on Leonardo so far, unless I'm missing some feature.

Also, and just to be honest here... the charts are pretty rough looking, especially the 1 minute candle charts. Is there any way you could incorporate tradingview charts into it?

Hi,

yes leonArdo runs on multiple cores. Four or six cores definitely help!
But still the API limits on the exchanges can't be lifted by using more cores

We hear ya in terms of the top bar/overview area! A re-design of that area in on our wish list.
In terms of the charts we tend to dis agree. Maybe there is a display issue on you system?
If you send a screenshot on, we are happy to take a look!

The negative minimum gain forces that you won't make a loss more that x% between a buy and a sell.
The stop loss sells at x% as a downside protection and stops the bot.

If you want the strategy to continue you would have to set a bigger % for stop loss.
Hope that helps.

All the best,

Right (thanks for your response), but as you can see in the screenshots, the first trades made an effective loss that was bigger than the negative minimum gain - so shouldn't it have sold before it even reached the stop loss?
