You admitted to being a congenital liar or a fake buffoon.
It figures.
I did not admit to either or both of those.
I doubt that I am very popular, but rarely have I been accused of being some form of disingenuous... except maybe rare occasions when certain members are getting too emotionally involved in some kind of seemingly irrelevant derailed personal attack and battle coming within their own feelings, which seems to be where you are currently wanting to go with this thread of our conversation.
Historically, you have devolved into quite a few emotional outbursts in your interactions with me, yet frequently your simultaneous solicitations for the help of others to chime into your concerns does not really seem to bring results - unless you happen to write some content that is actually funny - even if it is meant to be a dig toward me... .
Don't get me wrong.. because I hardly give any shits, but just saying about your ongoing devolutions into emotionalism, that's all.
I am speculating that perhaps an employment of a wee bit more humor from you could be helpful for your own dealings with whatever dilemmas you seem to be having... .. and surely it could even save you from some of your own bafooneries.. though you do come out with some pretty ridiculous ones, fairly regularly... .. and surely no need to repeat any of those here... posts speak for themselves.

Well no I should hope not ofc.
To me, it seems to NOT be very good for karma to be saying what you "don't want".. #justpointingitout
Your response shows that we are talking about two different things.
You really seem to be talking about using bots for trading, which surely is beyond my skillset or even my desired things that I would like to learn.
Does sound like a potentially good way of making good returns, so long as you are good at programing, like you said, and you have some parameters that you want to set that will likely work well without the bot going beserk on you... but of course, if you either limit the wallet balance within the hands of the bot and/or make sure that you are not setting parameters in a way that you are not going to get drained.. then you may well have to give a lesson on that here for peeps who might be interested in doing something like that.. at least in the event that you don't want to give away too many trade secrets, either.
The first bot I used with some minor modifications was this one by prof7bit written in Python:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=181584.0Later used one in Java for BTC-e (now defunct, another destroyed exchange).
I would most likely port the old Python one (see link) to support the Binance API, but we will see, not going to bother unless we see some volatility/oscillation action.
Might be interesting to know if you would be successful.. in terms of getting a bot to work on another exchange.
Of course, if you had used something like that on MTGOX and then on BTC-e that is quite historical happenings rather than recent happenings.. so you may well be out of practice or rusty, no?
I never did try to set up an account on MTGOX, but BTC-e was an easy place to set up an account in early days (talking late 2013). and yeah, I lost some coins on that exchange (I think that it was around mid 2017?) and I probably should have discontinued using them at a certain point, but did not really realize how badly it was going to devolve.., even though the signs were fairly strong..
PS By the way @modrobert, I reflected a wee bit more on your stated concern about lack of volatility and/or oscillation, and jeez.. I am wondering what level of volatility and/or oscillation do "need" in bitcoinlandia in order to feel comfortable?
Perhaps you are looking for BTC prices to stay in a smaller price range?.. and I wonder if you would be able to get consistent returns.. not that you would be very likely to get me to change anything that I do (including the employment of a trading bot).. because right now I consider myself as a mostly HODLer and an accumulator who uses trading for insurance purposes, and I do consider that I trade relatively BIG swings relative to my beginning history ..
I started out trading less than $5 price moves (and surely the price spread was around $10.. I cannot remember exactly), but sure the BTC price was then only around $250.. and now my trades are $1k price moves between trades, but my spreads are $6k to $7k .. but then if we get back to $60k-ish then my intervals become something like $3,000 and the spreads shuld be BIGGER too.. but sometimes I am NOT sure how those spreads will get BIGGER or even how much dollars/or sats that I might be stacking up until we get there also.. Anyhow, with the passage of time, it does seem that I am quite a bit less active - even though I am setting my orders manually, and of course if the BTC price moves $10k or $20k in a few days, that does tend to cause me to have to be more active in the order resetting arena...
For example on the most recent BTC price move: I had sell orders execute in the $37ks $38ks, $39ks, $40k (the ones in the $41ks did not execute); then I had buy orders that executed in the $34ks, $33ks, $32ks, $31ks, $30ks and $29ks (the ones in the $28ks did not execute). My next sell orders are in the $35ks and every $1k thereafter for quite a ways up.
