(A.C.T.) - Alternate Cryptocurrency Trading (w/ C.A.T.)

I would like some explanation on this as well.

Speaking % - can you thoroughly explain here the parameter "Sell All If % With Ref Is".

I'm always following such things in the log as:
2013-12-28 11:02:46| Cannot Reorder Max Ref Price is X Min Ref Price is X % Diff is X % Of Reference is X
2013-12-28 11:03:27| Cannot Reorder Sell Price Calculated is x Reference Price Is x

I understand that it's referring to the unit price we set in the Ping Pong creator, but can you explain it a bit more?

Ok i explain 
Ping doesn't have a reference price.
When a Ping is Buy/Sell, there's a TRADE

From TRADE born Pongs! Pongs have Reference Price (Trade Buy/Sell Trade Price)

When a Pong is created the price must be ok with the % Gain you have set.

and the only way is use the reference price

Ex :

You set Gain of 5%
You create a Ping of price 10

If is a Sell, pong will be a Buy with Quantity Gain of 5%
Is is a Buy, pong will be a Sell with Price Gain of 5%

Gain is the same (if quantity i will convert in price when i write the Gain Log)

When i create/recreate a Pong Orders i must use a value to compare My Reference Price With "something".
"something" is usually the Best buy/sell Market price.

The % Difference between My Reference Price and "something" could be a positive number (ex 2%) or a negative number (ex -5%)
When is positive and > % Min Gain users have set, i will create/recreate the pong, else i do nothing.

With the option Sell All If % With Ref Is you can decide to sell if this % is too low (it meaning that market values is far away from a condition to make a PONG Gain, and if you don't sell there's the risk to lost more money because of market devaluation).

If anyone wants to discuss C.A.T strategy with bigger balances (>5BTC) send me a message.

I've tried running with what I thought was a pretty simple strategy (1% gain on Aggressive, anywhere from 5-10 markets based on volume of trading).  CAT has worked for hours or even days at a time, and then something will happen to cause a dramatic drop in the alt coin price and I'm left holding a bunch of devalued coins.  At that point you have three choices:

1) Take the loss and move on
2) Wait it out but you can't trade any more on that pair in the meantime
3) Invest more and trade at the lower price while hoping it goes back up

So anything we can do to narrow down profitable settings is a good thing

I personally think that all of the proficient users are keeping quiet about their settings, etc.

I might become hated, but as I become proficient, I plan to be different. After all, I'm handling this for Bitcoin Corporation and trying to prove myself to them on my own dime.

That said, here is the current position of my small test account that I've actually not had much time today (12/30/2013) to spend working on:

I'm a bit all over the place with the settings, but as I learn, I'm become more intuitive and I think I can squeeze out a LOT better results. With a lack of proficiency with numbers and all. As a matter of fact, I think this might be my conduit to unlock the mysteries of numbers for me.
