Qt Bitcoin Trader [Open Source secure trading client for Mac/Windows/Linux]

[Askit2]

I have found something I believe to be in error.

I set up a sell rule and it fired based on price being greater then what I specified. So far all is well and it sold the amount I desired.

I tried one of the newer items from the beta version.

Total to Buy at Market Buy price. I have it set to the amount I sold + a bit of profit. (0.02 +0.0002 or 0.0202 total)

To check on the buy side I hit 2 buttons (All In) and (Buy Price) This prints two totals, One for before fees and one for after fees.
As I understand it if Both are above the amount I set in the rule then it should buy the amount I told it to buy (0.02). Both are above but the rule isn't triggering.
I get 0.02038 and 0.02026.

I have either failed to understand how the rule works or I located a bug.

It would be awesome if there could be some kind of scripting language for rules.

[IGHOR]

I appreciate it. All in all the bot works great! It stays connected during mtgox issues reliably or at least doesn't close ungracefully. It works on BTCe. I do wish I could do more when I have the bot watching for a condition to be met. Sometimes I would like to have say the BTCe bot able to buy a little USD while I am waiting to sell my NMC. It isn't a big deal and if I really needed that functionality I could always run another instace with another API key pair.

Thank You for making a great, fast and useful trading engine for the API's on several exchanges.

Monitoring and Trading with many currencies at same time is in progress.

It known issue and I'm working on it.
After I'll finish fixing bugs I'll make detailed wiki for all features.

It would be awesome if there could be some kind of scripting language for rules.

This feature will definitely added. It hard work and it takes a time. I want to make universal scripting language to affect all possible strategies.
I'm single developer and it takes a time. If you want to make me to avoid wasting time on other work, feel free to donate me. This will help me to be able to spend more time to develop Qt Bitcoin Trader.

PS: Sorry for my bad English.

It Ubuntu issue. There is no multimedia library.

Edit QtBitcoinTrader.pro
Set Line 10 to:
QT += network

Edit main.h
Comment line
#define USE_QTMULTIMEDIA

After v1.08 release I'll start working to port Qt Bitcoin Trader to Qt5 and I'll fix this issue.

[Ianwhitbread]

hmm did edit the files but sadly could not get it to work

dont worry!  I have a working version on my mac


I will wait till 1.08 to get it working on my ubuntu box


thank you for pointing me in the right direction

Ighor, please: I'm using the 1.07.62 beta for Linux (compiled it myself) and it's complaining about the Root Certificate.

How can I install this certificate?

Update: forget about it The solution is below

SOLVED

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3777075/ssl-certificate-rejected-trying-to-access-github-over-https-behind-firewall

$ cd /usr/ssl/certs
$  curl http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem | awk 'split_after==1{n++;split_after=0} /-----END CERTIFICATE-----/ {split_after=1} {print > "cert" n ".pem"}'
$ c_rehash

When Bitstamp will release new api that uses parameter "nonce" to identify duplicated packages then I'll update API client engine.

Finally Bitstamp has added the API keys: https://www.bitstamp.net/article/api-key-implementation/

Please include that in the nearest update.

Thank you!

It great news! Nonce is also added.
I'll make update and publish soon.

v1.07.75 Beta Released!

All Bitstamp users now forced to use API key and sign. Login and password are no longer supported.
Now Bitstamp works with api confirmations, so it now more stable, but not so fast as Mt.Gox or BTC-e due request limitations.
Fixed critical Rule Engine bugs.
Fixed "All In" values issue.

All exchanges works as fast as API server allows, but I know it can be faster.
Thats why I have planted to develop server to make single websocket connection with Qt Bitcoin Trader to get all exchanges tickers and depths realtime.
Thanks for bug reports, feature requests and donations, keep tracking updates.

Thank you IGHOR for this release. I'll try it is soon as I can and will give you feedback and donation.

[xhabit]

it, will be nice if the os version stay for download in github also.

[btcdrak]

Yes, github now supports releases. I think overall it's much safe to use github.

[xhabit]

nice. i'need mac os x. i'will look.

[nuffsaid420]

Just what I was looking for! Thanks, I passed a small donation your way!

Most programs I have found are not geared towards the day trader type, this is. Looking forward to seeing where this goes, and I will let you know about any bugs I find.

Hi everybody, I was testing the last beta of QtBitcoinTrader on Bitstamp.
I generated the API on the website, logged in into QtBitcoinTrader, and I started playing around with the rules menu.
So far so good.
Until suddenly an error window appears and tells me I have been disconnected from the server and I must wait 900 seconds (=15 minutes).
Only not it has already been 45 minutes and if I type in my browser the address of Bitstamp all I get is this:

Code:

Error 1006
Access denied
What happened?
The owner of this website (bitstamp.net) has banned your IP address ().
CloudFlare Ray ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX • Your IP: XX.XX.XX.XX • Help • Performance & security by CloudFlare

Has any of you had a similar experience? Do I get unbanned by simply waiting or do I have to contact Bitstamp and explain what happened hoping they will reinstate my IP?

I'll upload v1.08 release to GitHub. But you can use auto update instead of downloading new bin version every time. It is safe because there is RSA2048 checksum verification. And it easy to use.

Thank you for this information. You need just wait half hour to start work again.

I'll make packages counter to pick ideal interval again and (I have picked interval before Bitstamp released API keys support) then I'll release update.
But you can fix this now by yourself.

Go to the %localappdata%\QtBitcoinTrader folder.
Open end edit Bitstamp_*.ini file.
Find [Network] section.
Change
HttpRequestsInterval=1000
to
HttpRequestsInterval=2000

Also you can try set interval 1300-1700 and check it out.
Smaller interval = faster updates.

Thanks for the quick and useful reply Ighor!

Unfortunately, while I write, my IP is still banned...
I think it has been almost for about an hour now...
I'll check again tomorrow morning, hopefully they will have removed the ban by then.

I'm now testing your software with MtGox and it works really nicely!
I have one minor suggestion about the calculator: I trade mostly to increase my BTC stash and not to cash out and it would be nice if, next to the Valuta->BTC->Valuta path, the calculator also allowed the BTC->Valuta->BTC path, maybe just a button that switches the two rows in the UI?

The first trading profit I'll make consider it a donation already for the great work!
Thanks again and good evening!

I think this feature already done in UI, but not in Calculator dialog.

Example:
1) Fill "Buy Bitcoin" groupbox to buy 1 BTC at 130$
2) Fill "Sell Bitcoin" groupbox to sell 1 BTC at 150$
And above "Buy Bitcoin" groupbox you will see profit Valuta->BTC-Valuta
Also you can fill "Buy Bitcoin" groupbox and then write down 3% profit or 10% profit, then press Apply. "Sell Bitcoin" groupbox will be automatically filled to get this profit.
I think this feature replace Calculator dialog.
Also you can swap calculations directions.

If you think about another feature, please explain me it using screenshots.
