BBTA does not sell

[kaulpe]

Hello everybody,
I am new here. Started the bot yesterday for the first time, so please forgive me to ask novice questions.

I am executing BBTA strategy. I kept most of the default parameters. Main change was to set higher and lower BB to 10.
So today I was watching BTC-ETC, seeing that prices went up, coming close to the higher BB. My price to sell was the lowest in the order book of sellers. So I was expecting the bot to sell. But it did not.

Now I am wondering if I did any wrong parameters (which are pretty much same as default) or anything else wrong.

I am attaching a screenshot of the situation.
Thanks for any help,
Petra

There is not enough information in your post to do some serious analysis (we'd need your config file [WITHOUT the private info!!!] for that).

But what I can say that in general what you - as a human - see on that chart is NOT the same as Gunbot saw. Gunbot reacts on the exact numbers at an exact moment in time (closing of the candle), so if your "view" and Gunbot view are "off" (and they ALWAYS are) by even just a small timeframe it is very well possible that that little jump you see never occurred (enough) for Gunbot (to act)...

Thanks for trying to help. Suddenly the bot started to trade. I am not so sure why. I guess this is the magic in it :-)

BBTA is quite conservative, it usually makes less trades than other strategies. Most likelty it just took some time the conditions to be met.
