And it's still doing double buys on Bittrex
EDIT: no more double buys since I switched VPS from Amazon to Contabo

I have the same and I'm almost sure it happens when some of buy lvls are below 2%.

Also on contabo here, but have had them there too, (also a pretty sluggish response from the VPS with mouse etc..must be windows server....) will look into this, but i doubt mine were below 2%, could be tho, so will keep an eye out for this

Hello Gunthar,

Dor the next version, you may consider a setup where the bot does not sell our bankroll.
ie. I have 20 ETH on poloniex which I keep to sell later because I have bought it from low price, the bot does not sell only how much it bought itself, but all my ethereum.

Sincerely,

[dyvosvit]

In 20+ minutes i've lost half of days profit .....
GB started buying and buying and buying and buying and buying and buying with BB 15 strategy
http://prntscr.com/fn5rfa
the buying price decreased with every buy and finally GB sold at loss, because it sees only last bought price
https://prnt.sc/fn5r7c
Logs are attached  ...
and after that GB continues to buy ...
felling a bit depressed ....
may I have any answer?
that's my third post here .... on the same issue

Security Margins do not work.

For whatever reason, it seems to base the margin off of Last Price (or some other value) rather than Bought Price.

Example:

boughtPrice 0.00011959
we have altcoins: 250.23045109
LP 1.0448 < prSell 1.255695  secMargin 0.00009954933539999997

When I have the security margin set around 5%.

My problems and losses are mounting, the next update cannot come soon enough.

HIGH_BB does not work

tl;dr
Only value of LOW_BB is being used by the bot. So a BB sell strategy could not work properly if HIGH_BB value differs from LOW_BB

I realized too late that this was the case causing me to lose some profit.

My settings,

"BUY_STRATEGY": "BB",
"SELL_STRATEGY": "BB",
"LOW_BB": 0,
"HIGH_BB": 50,
"BUY_LEVEL": 2,
"GAIN": 1,

As you can see now priceToSELL is somewhere lower than HIGH BB but it should be equal to HiGH_BB. It is lower because LOW_BB is set to 50%.

So to me it seems like the value of HIGH_BB is being ignored and the value of LOW_BB is being used for both SELL and BUY.

Hi, using the default settings and only inputting the API keys and noticing something strange.

1. The High and Low BB is not calculating in the top settings section. I have never seen this populate after numerous relaunches.

2. The BTC / ETH balance is undefined. This does show up on relaunch randomly.

3. The PriceToSell doesn't seem right. In the screenshot the priceToSell is .1068 which is near the current price and nowhere near the high BB on the 15min chart. It should be relatively near the high BB but the calculated value is below 50% of the difference between the high and low.

Any feedback is appreciated, I can't run the bot without know how this works more clearly (if this is intended).

Thanks in advance!

[dzone]

Hi Tanimen,

So your setup you want to sell when the High BB is met since you have 0% set. Is that right? That's how I want to use it as well, actually to be 10% over the High BB. I have tried to set a negative % but it really throws off the value...

HIGH_BB does not work

tl;dr
Only value of LOW_BB is being used by the bot. So a BB sell strategy could not work properly if HIGH_BB value differs from LOW_BB

I realized too late that this was the case causing me to lose some profit.

Is there a potential in a future version to add the same GUI to the ubuntu / *nix version that could run on gnome or via VNC.  I'd like to be able to setup and manage via a gui as i'm having a lot of issues with the scripts on my unix box.

[BUG]

Exchange : Bittrex

Double buys, Quadruple buy, 12 BUYS ?! - they are not a problem if they sell for a profit.

But, the problem is, as Buy is set for BB, every time the price drops the bot buys the coin and sells it at a % more than the last buy. Say it buy 3 times for 1000, 950, 700 for a unit. If 700 is the last buy it sells it a % above 700.
I use bot delay - 10s.

I just noticed same issue on Poloniex, I have double buy for exact pair, same amt, same time. Running Gunthar's "How I Run" settings with ELECTRIC_WIZARD's random delay in ALL PAIRS on Windows 10. Haven't run more than 10 pairs simultaneously when this occurred. I'm just running Gunbot through it's paces as a new customer day 2 in a dedicated Poloniex linked account.

I gave Gunbot a small amount (.05 BTC deposit with .005 BTC max trade) to prove his skills to me. This isn't taking bread off my table at these amounts, but this is still a HUGE problem! Take those decimals away and we're talking WTF?

Okay,

I'm a new customer and was emailed link for 3.3.2 to use. After reading 5 pages in here this build is scaring the crap out of me.

Started:     6/29/17 @ 1PM

Poloniex:    Dedicated child account funded with .05 BTC (not a big amount for me)

Config:       Gunthar's "How I Run" default settings using BB/BB on 10 pairs

Max Trade: .005 BTC on BB/BB default 10 pairs

First Buy:    6/29/17 @ 8:41PM!

Results:      Ran 60 hours, 14 buys (2 of which were double buys), 6 trades (+2% profit), 8 bags, 1 Max trade slot left 0.00590980

So now I'm stuck learning bag strategies with no capital to continue trading in this test account.

QUESTION - WTF is everyone doing about this? Can we downgrade, is there a more stable previous version? In hindsight I should have tested with smaller fund and that's my fault, I foolishly thought that trading software like this would be more thoroughly tested prior to release. I don't want to piss anyone off in here, I'm just being honest. I think this bot is absolutely amazing and can't wait to get my hands on the next version, but until then, just need advice on how to proceed.

Thanks!

[allanster]

I'm being told by someone way smarter than me that this issue is a Polo being overwhelmed issue and not a Gunbot issue. I'm hoping that's the case, I'm seriously excited about Gunbot's potential.

It should come with a hazard warning though, I've only slept about 12 hours total in the last 4 days! Something like...

Caution: Sleep deprivation may be caused by using Gunbot!

1st possible bug:
v3.3.2 - bittrex

after setting manual sell order one of my bags at profit price, bot is throwing error "we set buy order, but exchange didn't received it" and can't continue trading until i cancel that order.


2nd bug
when using GAIN/GAIN strategy, bot using GAIN/BB if BB price is higher than GAIN. It's smart feature until it makes problems (at least for me).
When price reach GAIN for selling and BB is higher, bot tries to get BB price. If there is price reversal between GAIN and BB (price fall=yes), it will not sell at GAIN and price will fall below GAIN and it will become one of bags.

Solution which doesn't work: set highBB to 0.1 so bot will use GAIN level to sell. Problem: looks like highBB is hard coded when using GAIN/GAIN because "BB price to sell" doesn't change, no matter if i set BB to 90, 50 or 0.1.
Even setting GAIN/BB strategy with same settings (GAIN=1, BB=0.1) to force bot use GAIN as sell method because "no sell at loss" logic, bot doesn't show correct BB price

All sell trades showing the following error. There doesn't appear to be a setting in the config file for the options rate. Where is it set?

I see a lot of people running it at 5%, I seem to have far less bags now at that setting, but smaller profit as well. We need a "Magic Tune" button : )
