[ANN] CryptoSwitcher - Automatically mine the best coin.

[educatedwarrior]

Wow bter has autotrade API now 

It somewhat frustrating to use, because ltc_btc is a currency pair, but btc_ltc isn't. It needs a wrapper built around it like the btce-api python wrapper which takes that sort of thing into account.

Crypsty will be coming with API soon.  Got email reply from BigVern

nice! i was about to do something like this also, but no need ill use this when cryptsy will be available to script )

[The_Catman]

Luckycoin, Nibble, Phenixcoin, and Franko have been added. As well as some minor cosmetic changes.

I'll mention Junkcoin, Powercoin, and Royalcoinv were added awhile ago as well, since it doesn't seem to have been announced here.

Fellahs, Cryptsy API is now available.

Is there anyone actively working on these api wrappers?

Request for new feature:

can you add a trade multiplier variable? Let me explain, as I'm not sure it is self evident.

If I'm reading the code right, it gets the current highest bid and then puts a sell order at that price. I'm looking for a variable that defaults to '1.0', which would be your standard behaviour. However,

if you set the variable to 1.01, then if the current high bid for WDC is .000152 then it would set the sell order to .00015352

I think this would help prevent the constant dive in prices, or at least allow those that want to use it to not contribute, and we can set a default 'up sell' value.

Thoughts?

This seems like a pretty good idea to me.

EDIT: Added, under 'Misc' as 'tradeMultiplier'. The default value is 1, in order to not change the current behaviour, but I feel like setting this to 1.01 as the default value might be a good idea once people are aware of it.

another feature request , not a brainy as Jazkal


It looks like if you mine over 10 coins the summary screen get's jacked up.   How about updating the bottom of the screen log summary from 1-d vector display to 2-d, adding a row dimension.

Anybody having issues with profitability calculations in CS as of 6/8/13.   All of a sudden all my profitability calculations are zero

[Jazkal]

Might be because CoinChoose is down?

Right bro.  Didn't notice.

Man i wish I understood what the hell you guys are going on about! lol I would love to use something like this but I don't have the first clue how to go about it... It hurts my brain to even think about learning it! took me long enough to get cgminer to bloomin work! And still have the occasional issue with it now lol...

Good luck to you all though, after the asics have arrived alt coins are even more important to us gpu miners!

Hopefully one day someone will make a noob friendly version of this!

[sal002]

CoinChoose is back up.

Have you seen this?

Looks like Cryptsy's trading API is now documented.  A blob of PHP at the end is provided as an example.

I have a minimal Python binding up:

I'm now looking into getting CryptoSwitcher to use it.

Here's my first stab at it...waiting to build up enough coins for it to trigger:

PyCryptsy seems to have worked well enough for a couple of YAC-to-BTC exchanges earlier.  Integration was fairly simple; I designed it to work similarly with the Vircurex integration that had been done earlier.

This looks great, and I've merged it into CryptoSwitcher. I've also adjusted the TradeMultiplier to a default of 1.01, given the race-to-the-bottom nature of Cryptsy. To sell your altcoins for the highest price you can right now, return this to 1 in the config file.

Looks like it's trading on Cryptsy...one LTC-to-BTC trade went through; another is pending. 

It would be nice if their API provided a way to cash out your BTC to your wallet. I'd rather keep my coin in a wallet under my control.

anyone wanna help me get going?  i need to write the first scrypt script
