Technical Support & Development / Re: v5.0.5.5 + BOUGHT_PRICE + DOUBLE_UP = Sell at loss

« on: October 10, 2017, 09:03:01 PM »

Thanks for the info.
I've also had an unexpected sell for a loss on v3.3.2 as well (linked in my OP)....

I was really hoping to use the Double_Up feature, in an effort to not keep bags hanging around...
Currently, I've actually stopped both versions of the bot (v5.0.5.5 and v3.3.2, they were on different coins)... and I've manually averaged the coins and created the needed buy/sell orders, since the bot seems unreliable at this time.

Dont use 15 period on 5055!!!
1/5/30 on Bittrex with "GUNTHY_API": false

Okay, so, I have a couple things I'd like to know then

1) What is GUNTHY_API, and why is it needed? (AFAIK, this wasn't required in v3.3.2)
2) Why is only 15min effected?
3) It's obviously pulling prices and buying as expected, just not averaging prices and selling properly.
4) Can we get a release where the config.js file isn't jacked up? (v5.0.5.5 has double "EMA1"s in the config... and I think something else, but can't recall off the top of my head)

Technical Support & Development / v5.0.5.5 + BOUGHT_PRICE + DOUBLE_UP = Sell at loss

« on: October 10, 2017, 05:47:15 AM »

Hey all,

I've yet another instance of the bot selling at a loss... this time on v5.0.5.5.
(previous time was on v3.3.2: https://gunthy.org/index.php/topic,1552.0.html)

I had a bag of coins that I've been holding for a while, I start the bot to try to sell them and it tells me that it can't find the bought price and to manually enter it.
....I'm not sure why it can't get the price, as I can see the bought price when I browse to the transactions of the coin, but w/e.

So, I entered the buy price: "BOUGHT_PRICE": 0.00923000

Code: [Select]

"BTC-NEO": {
"strategy": "bbstepgain",
"override": {
"BOUGHT_PRICE": 0.00923000,
"DOUBLE_UP": true,
"BUY_ENABLED": true
}
}

Code: [Select]

"bbstepgain": {
"TRADING_LIMIT": 0.001,
"PERIOD": 15,
"BUY_LEVEL": 6,
"GAIN": 0.6,
"EMA1": 16,
"EMA2": 8,
"HIGH_BB": 25,
"LOW_BB": 10,
"STDV": 2,
"SMAPERIOD": 20,
"BUYLVL1": 4,
"BUYLVL2": 6,
"BUYLVL3": 70,
"SELLLVL1": 0.6,
"SELLLVL2": 2,
"SELLLVL3": 70,
"BUYLVL": 2,
"SELLLVL": 2,
"LASTPOINTS": 5,
"AVGPOINTS": 250,
"AVGMINIMUM": 0.00000001,
"GUNTHY_API": false,
"PP_BUY": 0.00000001,
"PP_SELL": 0.12345678,
"PANIC_SELL": false,
"DOUBLE_UP": false,
"STOP_LIMIT": 99,
"BUY_ENABLED": false,
"MIN_VOLUME_TO_BUY": 0.0001,
"MIN_VOLUME_TO_SELL": 0.0001
}
Everything was going good... it bought a 2nd time to average the price down....

Then BAM! Sold for a LOSS!!!!!!

The average cost of the coin should have been 0.00759250, and should have waited to sell until ~0.00763806 (with the 2 buys that were on the books), yet the bot sold for 0.00609000

I assume it is calculating "GAIN" on price of the last BUY instead of averaging the price of the coins properly...

Technical Support & Development / Bot sold for a loss, for no apparent reason (v3.3.2 - Bittrex)

So....

This happened early this morning:

There definitely was not a 60% drop (there was only something like a 3.5% drop), so a panic sell shouldn't have triggered.

Any incite as to why the bot sold at a loss?
