This is an experimental bot for trading against the bittrex exchange

DISCLAIMER

I am not responsible for anything done with this bot. You use it at your own risk. There are no warranties or guarantees expressed or implied. You assume all responsibility and liability.

Configuration

Note: An api key will need to be created with "Trade Limit" permissions

  • apiKey - api key
  • apiSecret - api key secret
  • trade - the base token used for exchange
  • currency - the token ticker to be traded
  • sellValuePercent - the difference in the sell price of the previous order completed
  • buyValuePercent - the difference in the buy price of the previous order completed
  • sellVolumePercent - how many tokens are traded during a transaction
  • buyVolumePercent - how many tokens to purchase. Set this number higher than the sellVolumePercent to accumulate more tokens...set it lower to purge tokens
  • extCoinBalance - off exchange token count
  • checkInterval - how often the bot will check for orders

The percentage values are actual percentages...not decimals. So if you want to trade 3.25% you would input 3.25 in that value. I would also not recommend going below 20 seconds for the checkInterval. Otherwise, it's possible to induce a race condition with bittrex.

Example file

{
  "apiKey": "34234898u9rghk",
  "apiSecret": "238ryfiuahskuqh4ri",
  "trade": "BTC",
  "currency": "WAVES",
  "sellValuePercent": 4,
  "buyValuePercent": 7,
  "sellVolumePercent": 3,
  "buyVolumePercent": 3,
  "extCoinBalance": 0,
  "checkInterval": 30
}

the config file MUST be named botConfig.json

Usage

The bot is designed to trade a single token at a time. It's recommended to run it in the docker container. The docker image can be found at jufkes/bittrexBot

To run: docker run -d --name -v /path/to/config/file:/opt/bittrexBot/config jufkes/bittrexbot:latest
