Guys I just downloaded the bot and tried installing it but nothing came up… Few mins later I refresh page and the thread is gone… Please don’t tell me it was a virus! >.< I have a free version of AVG that did not pick up anything… donno :(((
[/quote]I removed the thread due to the obnoxious spamming.

Seems that the user was banned from bitcointalk.org…

I wouldn’t trust any of the bot programs TBH. Not to scare you, but you should *at least* change your btc-e credentials. Good luck!

[/quote]Oh alright because I’m freaking out a bit, did extended scan on the file but no threats found. I mean it doesn’t work as the bot itself just opened a cmd on start up and then nothing. Damn, I trust unknown sources in this forum too much!

If you are really looking for a trade bot for BTCe i can recommend the bot i have written. I am still trying the break the scams surrounding all the bots, but the one i have made is for real, i can assure you that. I know everybody is scared because if the scams, but please take a look at the following links:
http://www.haasonline.com/index.php/stb
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=211979.0
https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,3258.0.htmlYou will notice there are other people buying my software and i a was a fraud or scam to i should have been banned of blocked already. Just read the responses of everybody, the most skeptical forums members break one by one and are admitting this is for real. (i am having the time of my life with that)
I have have a contact with a mod there, i will open a topic here with my software to. But we have agreed i will add the support for FTC first. At this moment i am testing it FTC and CNC and if everything goes well i will release tomorrow a new update of the software with the FTC, CNC and some minor improvements. (check the change log at my website for details)
I am very positive my trade bot will get accepted too at this forum, or at least i hope. Again please just read what others say about my software. Confirmations are all around and it is just getting started, i am expecting a lot or reviews to be published in time.
Edit:
One piece of advice: During the testing with the community i have learned that a lot of people run this kind of software sandboxed or virtual. I have even heard of people who have created a second BTCe command. I can recommend this to everybody using this kind of software to defend yourself against scams. Better safe then sorry. -

Your first mistake was in thinking that an off-the shelf trading bot is going to make you money.
I’ve written an arbitrage bot that looks for differences in prices between exchanges, and that’s failing miserably because of lag on the network: By the time the order goes through, the difference has corrected itself.
What’s more is the commissions make the difference need to be larger than 1.1% or your just giving money to the exchanges all day.
So I sit here and watch this happen all day:
[code]
BTC->USD Bid: 121.2 @ BTC-e, Ask: 120 @ CampBX (0.9900991%)
BTC->USD Bid: 120.47 @ Bitstamp, Ask: 120 @ CampBX (0.39013863%)
BTC->USD Bid: 121.2 @ BTC-e, Ask: 121.01 @ Bitstamp (0.1650165%)
No opportunities greater than 1.1% found.
[/code]Drives me up the wall. And when I finally do see an opportunity and it automatically executes the trade, one side will lag harder than the other, and I’ll end up a with a sell on on exchange, and no matching buy on the other one because my connection will time out. Or the market will move too fast, and the order won’t get filled. Or any number of other crappy things that can go wrong. And of course half the exchanges don’t have a trading API, and the other half don’t support the currency pairs i’m interested in (BTC-USD, and BTC-FTC).
I’d love to sell the damn thing except it’s never actually made any money, despite the theory being completely sound.
tl;dr: Trading bots are easy to write, and very hard to make work. Anyone trying to sell you a pre-packaged one without the source code is almost certainly scamming you.
-
Oh and did I mention that the exchanges seem to go out of their way to make this impossible?
CampBX only takes Dwolla. BitStamp, Ripple. BTC-e and MtGox, BitInstant, and Bter and CAVirtex doesn’t DO USD period. The rest don’t even seem to have API’s to work against.
Frankly, it’s a mess.
