[Official] Tradewave.net — Build your own automated cryptocurrency trading bot

[tradewave]

We're happy to announce Tradewave today. We want to make it really easy for anyone to script their own automated trading bots with Python.

All the hard parts like fetching data feeds, order execution and backtesting are handled by us.

• Your bot runs on our servers. No need to worry about downtime or latency
• Fast backtesting (you just press a button in the code editor)
• Trade BTC, LTC, USD and EUR (+ more alt-coins to come)
• Multiple exchanges (BTC-E, Bitstamp, Kraken, Bitfinex + more to come)
• Huge set of indicators in our library (TA-Lib)
• Run multiple bots simultaneously (with time offsets if you need it)
• Scripted with Python in your browser. One of the easiest languages to learn.
• We list featured pre-made strategies to get you started
• Discussion forums for collaboration

Nice website. I'll take a look at it later.

awesome;.   i'll go study myself some python first  ..   some day it will be in java  aswell?

[tradewave]

Some day it will be in java aswell?

Hey, glad you like the site. There are no current plans to support other languages. It's best to have one common language (and Python is really easy to learn) so that everyone can share and understand code/examples in the forums.

Hi,

can you explain  how the api private key(broker/exchange) are  saved on your system? ...   
i dont need the full details but enough so i know they are stored safely.

the aribtraging thing(not sure if it works yet just went trough documentation   fast)
and the multi timeframe  are amazing. 
 

regards

Sure, I'm including a response I gave to this previously:

We're using symmetrical AES-256 to encrypt your exchange API keys. The first time you start a bot, you'll be prompted to enter your API keys along with a passphrase of your choosing (it shouldn't be the same as your account password).

We encrypt your keys with the passphrase and store them in our database, but we never store the passphrase anywhere, so in the highly unlikely event that our database is ever compromised, the potential attacker would have no way getting your original API keys and your funds would therefore be safe.

From now on, each time you start the bot you'll be prompted for the passphrase. We use that to decrypt the keys and send them directly to the bot instance without storing them anywhere. They are not written to disk and only kept in-memory by the bot instance.

We think that this is a good compromise over having to enter your API keys every time; and obviously much better than storing them in the clear.
