Technical Support & Development / Re: Preventing 422 Errors

« on: June 20, 2017, 06:52:30 PM »

1) one-in-all gunbot version:
The next version will do exactly that, it will run all pairs within one instance of gunbot. So the orderbook and price data etc will all be shared for all paris on one exchange. Gunthy anounced that in the telegram group a few days ago. It is still in testing phase. I am really excited to see the release!

2) there seems to be a proxy solution for Poloniex (also mentioned in the telegram chat). There were some really impressive results with 4s delay without 422 errors. Its 0.1 BTC, though, and the next version of gbot might already have a fix. Overall, I did not find much information about the proxy, if anyone finds something please post it! Would be useful to judge the price tag of the proxy.

3) I already suggested using the chart data to initialize the LP array for BB and the trendwatcher. This would be an awesome improvement I think!

Technical Support & Development / Initialize last prices with chart data on restart, BB directly after bot start?

« on: June 18, 2017, 09:52:03 PM »

Hey Gunthar,

every time we start the bot again the array of MAX_LATEST_PRICES size is empty and the bot needs a time of "MAX_LATEST_PRICES x BOT_SLEEP_DELAY" (i.e. 300 min @ 60 s delay or 600 min @ 120 s delay) before BB trading is enabled. If the 422 error occurs it gets even longer as no valid LP can be added to the array. I think it would be great to initialize the array when the bot is started with data that can be requested from the exchange (the one used to plot charts, its only public API without access penalty). As far as I know even 5 min candles can be requested on Poloniex - I have not looked at Bittrex and Kraken API but guess its similar. This data could be written to the LP price array and BB can be enabled immediately. Over time the initial chart data gets replaced by the actual data that gunbot acquired.

The chart data would need to be resampled to match the BOT_SLEEP_DELAY, if we for example set this delay to 120 s but only 300 s candles can be downloaded (Poloniex example), every value needs to be repeated on average 2.5x (pattern could be "-AA-BB-AAA-BBB-" or something less regular with some kind of "dithering"). The same for Bittrex where we can run at much higher frequency (e.g. 20 s), in this case the LP array is much larger and the values have to be repeated more often (in the example of 20s delay and 300s candles every value needs to be repeated 15 times).

I think this would be a really great addition and makes frequent restarts or larger reconfigurations possible. Stepgain would probably not benefit so much due to the repeating of the values, the LP array would be very blocky. The effects of this would need to be tested. But for BB (and especially for less crazy delay times in the min-range) it might actually work well...

Keep up the good work, looking forwad to the next ON-IN-ALL update of g-bot!

[ACKNOWLEDGED]


Double buy on Polo with 3.3.2. Its saying "WARNING: we already bought" but places the order anyways. I now have two open orders. Seems like a very rare situation, I have not observed that before. Using STEPGAIN.

Another issue with Kraken, gunbot bought 5x on EUR_XMR market (log is attached below). This is the newest version (3.2 with GUI, linuxx64). Perhaps the error "invalid nonce" came at a bad time @cyle 2781, messing things up?

Technical Support & Development / Re: Bugs/Issues tracker v3.2

« on: May 20, 2017, 10:06:15 PM »

Another observation:

I have been running lots of pairs with TRADING_VOLUME 0 at lower cycle time to have full BB stats. Then when I decide the pair should be active I just set it to 0.02 BTC for trading. This way I thought I can avoid having to wait for 10h to have complete BB stats. Since TRADING_VOLUME is zero no buy/sell action should happen. Then I noticed that the bots gets into limbo after a 0 BTC buy happens (which results in an error message). The bot is "waiting for orders 0 DGB" indefinetely although no altcoin balance/on orders. I attached the corresponding part of the log below. I will now run the TRADING_VOLUME with higher BTC (perhaps 0.001 BTC) instead. However, this could probably be fixed - if you have any hints what in the savefile I have to look for I would be grateful. This is running 3.2_core (22 update, not the GUI one). It was cycle 81, so stats were not completed yet and GAIN was used.

Code: [Select]

Hey Gunthar, another update:

The same problem also happens if the bot places a regular buy order which is not getting filled soon because the price rises. The buy order is stuck and the bot is waiting to receive altcoin balance which never happens. I now have an order thats stuck for hours and who knows when the prices falls below the buy level and if its a good time then to place the buy.

I really think we should have some option that auto-cancels buy orders that are not filled within 1 hour or some other CONFIG variable. Thats the last big problem that I see, otherwise everything is working really well!

EDIT: buying a small amount of altcoin gets the bot going again. After it sells the altcoin, it resumes looking to buy.

Another observation:

I have been running lots of pairs with TRADING_VOLUME 0 at lower cycle time to have full BB stats. Then when I decide the pair should be active I just set it to 0.02 BTC for trading. This way I thought I can avoid having to wait for 10h to have complete BB stats. Since TRADING_VOLUME is zero no buy/sell action should happen. Then I noticed that the bots gets into limbo after a 0 BTC buy happens (which results in an error message). The bot is "waiting for orders 0 DGB" indefinetely although no altcoin balance/on orders. I attached the corresponding part of the log below. I will now run the TRADING_VOLUME with higher BTC (perhaps 0.001 BTC) instead. However, this could probably be fixed - if you have any hints what in the savefile I have to look for I would be grateful. This is running 3.2_core (22 update, not the GUI one). It was cycle 81, so stats were not completed yet and GAIN was used.

@OutOfSync to me it looks like 3.2 BB needs 3 cycles to calculate its values!? but I might be wrong and the values showing up are ...?.. something else!

It shows BB values after 3 cycles because you need at least 3 values to calculate standard deviation. However, until stats are calculated (300 cycles with default settings) the bot does not use BB strategy but the GAIN value (2% as default). 300 cycles with default delay of 120 s is 10 hours untils BB stats are done. This is just quite long if you have to e.g. update the binary and hotconfig is therefore not possible...

A trick if you know you are going to do a quick restart: save your save.json file in another folder > start yor bot > copy/paste yoru old save.json file while the bot is already running. Dont do that if you stop yrou bot for long time tho: you will get weird standard deviation

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried it but it doesn't seem to work. Seems like the bot saves the current status before loading the -save.json file. I always end up with the empty lastPrices array in the save file. Also no luck with setting readonly permission to prevent saving the current (empty) array over the previous fully filled one.

Hi Gun,

thanks again for ironing out all the bugs and patiently explaining things! Would it be possible to change v3.2 so that lastestPrices are reloaded when we restart the bot? I think you added this to v3.1 at some point and it was really useful for setting up the BB. I hate it when the bot needs to recalculate stats for hours. I understand that this might be dangerous when the bot was switched off for some time because the values are too old and not accurate anymore. Could this be an optional setting in the config? Something like "LOAD_LATEST_PRICES_ON_START: false" as default but so that we can change it if we are aware of the associated risks? That would be awesome!

Thanks again!

2 issues to report:

1) "Altcoin on orders" is reported incorrectly in kraken market (did not check other markets):

Situation: I have some ETH that I manually placed a selling order for. Now I started a different pair in kraken from scratch with brand new config and no save file. The ETH on orders is now reported as "balance on order" for the newly started pair and the bot is confused because it thinks we have altcoins but no boughtPrice. This could be mitigated if the "balance on order" is reported correctly for the pair the bot is running.

2) I cannot find the Low BB and High BB values in the "-save.json" file.

Saving these important values would make it easy to write a GUI that reports them over time. I am thinking along the lines of an InfluxDB database with Grafana dashboard tracking all parameters. Would be really nice to tweak the bot.

Thanks Gunthar for an awesome update!

Solved both in patch 2020
Thanks for reporting!

Thanks for including the BB values, this will be really helpful! I was wondering if you can also include the mean value, I think I can calculate this from the latestPrices array but it would just be nice to show lowBB, highBB and mean.

Regarding the "onOrder" issue:
Unfortunately the issue persists, the ETH now shows as alt balance although it still is on selling order ("On Orders" is not shown anymore). gbot complains about "Missing boughtPrice" since it cannot find a record of this altcoin balance. I think in this situation the altcoin balance should be reported as zero and not as the alt coin balance which is on selling order.

Nasty problem, but thanks for taking care of the bugs!
