hey guys, newcomer here and i feel lost even after spending a week reading the forum or checking all i could on youtube.
So far i have two pairs configured for gunbot on kraken, in 7hours no trade was found which i guess is quite common.
i also got this error message every few minutes, is it normal?

not to worry, kraken will throw these sometimes. maybe set the bot on a longer period. read up on how to do this in the version instructions on github.
i am asking because on the telegram group i read that today was a good day for finding trades so it seems that my configuration is clearly not optima and probably event not workingl. I am trading the default kraken pairs eth and litecoin vs btc
you are of course aware that in these high versions BB strategy is buggy? I recommend looking at the real BB in the given time against the calculated BB from bot and adjust accordingly. When I want to buy at low BB40 I adjust the bots BB to about 1. This is not a direct conversion, it's only an approximation, which may bring you bags under circumstances. better learn to use stepgain.
However i have absolutely no idea how to add pair, which one to choose.Is there any tutorials for beginners?
Open config and do:"kraken": {
"XLTCXXBT": {
"strategy": "bb"
}, HIT ENTER HERE AND PASTE YOUR CHOSEN PAIR, ADD STRATEGY AND SAVE
"XETHXXBT": {
"strategy": "bb"
A list of Kraken pairs with notation (Krak is a bit particular about this, so don't fuck this up).
"XETCXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XZECXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"DASHXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XETHXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XXRPXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XXMRXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"EOSXBT": {"strategy":"whatever" },
"GNOXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"BCHXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XXDGXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XICNXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XXLMXXBT": {"strategy":"whatever" },
"XREPXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" },
"XLTCXXBT": {"strategy": "whatever" } NOTE: NO COMMA IN THE LAST ROW, INSERTING A COMMA HERE MEANS DEATH
Replace "whatever" with the strategy of your choice, don't use BB, as it's buggy. Which pairs to select? Always use sideways and uptrend pairs. Check regularly and adjust pairs if needed, at least have a look at it once a day. Never use downtrend pairs or steep uptrend.
