For 5 minute charts on Bittrex, using 5.0.5, should the SMAPERIOD not be 120? Also using Sjakil's gui I should add. Thanks for all of your hard work and knowledge!

On v5.0.5.5 for Bittrex, you should now have GUNTHY_API=false, and then the SMAPERIOD should be 10 if you want to match SJakil's GUI charts.

For v5.0.5.5, the only candles that should be using the GUNTHY_API is 15 (for Bittrex only).

I am seeing strange BB calculations, I'm not sure if this is specific to 5.0.5.5

I am seeing this, but according to the Bittrex graph the High is too high, and the low is way too low!

HIGH BB: 0.00905475 == SMA: 0.00666641 == LOW BB: 0.00427807

I have GUNTHY_API set to True, and SMA 20 to match the setting on the Bittrex graph.

Any body else able to confirm if they see similar?

As we on 55 are no longer calculating SMAPERIOD but simply entering either default 20 or 10 SMAPERIOD for Sjakils GUI:

For 15 minute candles on SMAPERIOD:20
Set GunthyAPI=true:
EMA1: 8,
EMA2: 4,
(Do these stay unchanged when using SMAPERIOD:10?)

For 5 minute candles on SMAPERIOD:20
Set:
EMA1: 24,
EMA2: 12,
(Do these stay unchanged when using SMAPERIOD:10?)

1 minute intervals at SMAPERIOD:20
Set:
EMA1: 120,
EMA2: 60,
(Do these stay unchanged when using SMAPERIOD:10?)

My question that remains is regarding these values, to change or not to change?:
"interval_ticker_update": 15000,
"period_storage_ticker": 2000,

I'm still totally lost in settings for the v5.0.5.5 and pure BB.
I'm trying to stick on my standard v4 BB : EMA1 4, EMA2 2, PERIOD 15, HIGH_BB 40, LOW_BB 30.
The best result I could get is :
Error on strategy BB for BTC_xxx on poloniex while getting Bollinger Bands -\ Error: Invalid start time.
I've tried to reverse EMA1 / EMA2, no way. The V5.0.5.5 BB is crippled and really hard to understand.
Any idea ?

Thanks.

Truly the best option is to move to Gunbot 6.0.1. There is no reason to delay.  It solves this thread's issues.

Came here to ask this. No need it seems! Thanks  :)
