Title: GUNBOT v3.1 - Release name: "x3"
Post by: Gunthar on April 19, 2017, 10:42:09 PM
GUNBOT v3.1 - Release name: "x3"
(the x3 profit multiplier)

I'm proud to announce a great target the entire GUNBOT community reached: the GUNBOT x3 edition. This edition is the result of the hard work and efforts of over 300 people that continuously cooperated in the past 4 months to improve, suggest code, test and finance, the first automatic trader with a unique feature: its stable profit income. All users reports, ideas, enthusiasm have been melted in a single product which is now able to multiply the invested amount of BTC in multiple exchanges platforms: Bittrex, which is rich of unexplored and impressive altcoins, Kraken with the highest "volume/number of pairs" rate, and Poloniex, the largest lab for all cryptocurrencies lovers.

How does the x3 Edition work?
It's highly customizable settings, allow you to decide how to move on the markets: the concept is basic but the algorithm behind it, is one of the most backtested and profitable, buy low and sell high. How? The Bollinger Band indicator has been implemented: short-ema, long-ema, and volume weighted price are now confirming what we need to know. The price is low enough > we need to buy OR The price is high enough > we must sell!

What settings am I allowed to change?
If you used the Poloniex GUNBOT you know what was missed: a real indicator of a low price to buy at. This user has described this procedure better than me:
Hi all :-) and Hi Gunthar :-)
First of all I want to say I really enjoy Gunbot and Gunthar's constant efforts to improve it !

Now from my experience and from what I read in the chat, the main problem remaining on Gunbot is when it buys at top price, leading to bag holdings for days (weeks... months...) before these alts recover

I have a suggestion for an option that would allow to minimize these situation
I already posted this idea twice on the Telegram group and it received very good feedback, but I'm sure many users missed it (sometimes hard to read 1000+ messages daily), and that's why I'm posting it here on the forum so everyone can see it and comment.

This options consists in an additional parameter that would be % of bolinger band where bot is allowed to buy
The bot would measure the distance between the lower and upper bolinger bands, and if the price is at a higher distance than set, the bot would not buy

We could set this parameter to 500% by default, with this setting the bot would behave exactly as it is doing now, and it would not bother  those who don't want to use this feature.

This would be an additional filter that would be applied just before the bot buys, so it would not change at all the actual gunbot strategy, but only prevent buying too close to upper Bolinger Band if the feature is activated.

For those who want to use the feature, they could set this parameter to 50% for example in which case the bot would buy only if Buy Price is below or at 50% distance from lower bolinger band to upper bolinger band. Depending on each coin behavior the parametre could be set to 10%, 0%, or even -10%

In the picture below for example, the parameter is set at 50% and the bot would be allowed to buy only in the yellow range (sorry the drawing was quickly made and not perfect).

(http://img4.hostingpics.net/pics/436794Gunbotbolinger2s.png)

For myself if this was implemented I would use it a lot and set it between 20%~30% I think, but that must be adjustable differently for each pair according to their recent behavior.

Quote
In Spring, 2010, John Bollinger introduced three new indicators based on Bollinger Bands. They are BBImpulse, which measures price change as a function of the bands; percent bandwidth (%b), which normalizes the width of the bands over time; and bandwidth delta, which quantifies the changing width of the bands.

%b (pronounced "percent b") is derived from the formula for Stochastics and shows where price is in relation to the bands. %b equals 1 at the upper band and 0 at the lower band

So basically if we call BBSetParam this new parameter, we would have something like:

Code: [Select]
if (AllOtherConditionsOk && (%b*100 <= BBSetParam))
BotCanBuy=TRUE;

(Note: someone on the Telegram group said that it is useless because we have EMA's, but this is wrong. Bolinger Bands are really different indicators, and EMA's are useless in what I'd like to see because EMA's always tend to follow the upper Bolinger Band during pumps, and the lower Bolinger Band during dumps.)

I would like to hear everyone's opinion about this suggestion
Thanks for reading :-)

So how does it work exactly?
You have 2 options: use pure Bollinger Band or a mix of %GAIN and Bollinger Band:

Are all other features we had in the Poloniex GUNBOT implemented?
Yes, they are. The final tuning for the "manual trades" tho, is not complete yet, that's the only feature I am not satisfied with (yet), so the final job will be in the 3.2 release.

Ok you got me: how do i buy it?
The GUNBOT x3 edition comes with different packages:

Currently selling Linux version only
The process of license distribution is split in the next days: actually, only Linux users will receive their copy. In the next 2 days, Windows users will receive their copy too. This is because licensing all the API keys will take time: please be patient and allow me to secure your GUNBOT copy and to protect it from leakers and lurkers: your GUNBOT has a value and we must take care of it.

Please PM me in this forum with your desired exchange and your public API key. Wait for a unique BTC address to deposit the license cost and notify me by PM with the transaction id. In this initial state, i will send copies every 3 hours.

Thank you for your patience, contribution and help: we are making the perfect money machine, together.

~Gun

Great news! I hope i can understand how to setup new settings. Also i hope that for not experiencing in trading people, will be easier just to use so default settings as possible, to avoid mistakes in settings.

Release v3.1 - Core Edition: Linux/Windows/Mac/ARM
@GuntharDeNiro GuntharDeNiro released this an hour ago

This is a major release in its core edition: no GUI. You can run it on Windows following instructions here https://gunthy.org/index.php?topic=47.msg94#msg94

Linux/Mac/ARM follow instructions here: https://gunthy.org/index.php?topic=72.0

In all processes you can run it from command line like this:
"node index BTC_ETH poloniex" for poloniex market
"node index BTC_ETH kraken" for kraken market
"node index BTC_ETH bittrex" for bittrex market

Step by step guide to start it from old 2.x versions:

1- Copy all your "BTC_XXX-save.json" file to the new GUNBOT folder
2- Rename all your "BTC_XXX-save.json" file to "poloniex-BTC_XXX-save.json"
3- Create a config file by cloning the "BTC_ARK-config.js" per each pair you want to run
4- Fill your api/secret pairs for each market in each config file
5- start the bot from command line with the above mentioned commands
6- Profit!

Pre-requisites and environment:
You need node installed (you should already have it installed from 2.0.4b. If this is not the case, install the latest node (actually 7.9). The package already includes all node_modules. You can run "npm install" if you wish to update to the latest modules in the future. After installation, if you get some errors for missed npm modules, run again the command for the missed module only. For example: "npm install request" (if you got an error for missed "request" module. Or: "npm install mathjs" if you received an error about missed mathjs module.

The Strategies:
With this release, you can operate on 3 markets (Poloniex, Kraken, Bittrex) using different strategies:

1- Pure EMA ping-pong: let your bot buy at a fixed % below EMA and sell at a fixed percentual above EMA.
These are the settings to use for this strategy:
- SELL_STRATEGY: 'GAIN', //sell strategy to use (BB or GAIN)
- BUY_STRATEGY: 'GAIN', // buy strategy to use (BB or GAIN)
- BUY_LEVEL: 1, //percentual from weighted price you want to buy if you want to use GAIN strategy
- BITTREX_GAIN: 2, // margin to sell on bittrex
- KRAKEN_GAIN: 2, // margin to sell on kraken
- GAIN: 2, // margin to sell on poloniex
With this settings your bot will buy at 1% below ema and sell at 2% above ema (you can set sell levels per each market.

2- Pure Bollinger Band ping pong: let your bot buy close to the lower Bollinger Band and sell close to the higher
Bollinger Band.
These are the settings to use for this strategy:
- LOW_BB: 5, //percentual from the lowest Bollinger Band you want to buy
- HIGH_BB: 5, //percentual from the highest Bollinger Band you want to sell
- SELL_STRATEGY: 'BB', //sell strategy to use (BB or GAIN)
- BUY_STRATEGY: 'BB', // buy strategy to use (BB or GAIN)
Notice: when you first start your GUNBOT, it has not statistics yet, it needs to collect and build indicators.
Hence, to protect you from buying too high because the Bollinger Band are not completely calculated
yet, the GUNBOT will work using the GAIN strategy until it says the statistics are correctly loaded. It will
switch automatically to the Bollinger Band strategy when ready. So, be sure to properly set BUY_LEVEL
and GAIN % in all markets!

3- A mix of the previous strategies: you can decide to BUY at fixed % and to sell at higher Bollinger Band. Or you
can decide to BUY at lower Bollinger Band and to sell at % GAIN from your bought price. Or you can decide to
restrict the Bollinger Band and use a Bollinger Band ping pong with smaller interval (play with the LOW_BB and
HIGH_BB settings to achieve this.

4.- Dont forget you have still available other 3 strategies: the SUPERGUN from 2.0.4b, the 1000trades...and the
beloved "Russian Roulette" from v1.3!!! They are all profitable strategies and you can decide to move over
multiple accounts with multiple strategies on the same coin!

I am completing the GUI for pinky-Windows users ;) I will push a GUI in the next 48 hours.

Known features not working (yet) in this release:

manual trades (i am building a GUI for this feature as it has been reported with some bugs in the 2.0.4b
email alert: gmail and some other providers added an extra security layer to prevent spam and it is being
refactored.
Please report any bug immediately!!!
Thanks

Just to clarify, looking at the provided config file it appears that this the strategy that will be used with "default settings," is this correct?

Hi Gunthar. Is there a time limit for this offer ? Because actually I'm only using Poloniex, but I might give a try at Kraken and Bittrex in a few weeks (months ?)

Can we set negative values in LOW_BB and HIGH_BB if we want to buy below lower BB or sell above upper BB ?

Hey, what about a mixture of BB and Supergun? What I mean is: When i set LOW_BB to 5 and the price is going below 5% the Gunbot waits until the trend changes and buys even deeper. As Supergun does today. The same on HIGH_BB.

Would that be a good strategy or do i miss something? (Please be gentle, I'm new in trading  ;D)
