Wrong configuration examples in instance.js.dist

[jl2035]

According to this issue: https://github.com/Haehnchen/crypto-trading-bot/issues/41

...the configuration in "instance.js.dist" is wrong and misleading.

If this is true, I can volunteer to create a PR.

@jl2035 please provide a solution here. I am getting error when editing api and secret key.

I'm not sure you are getting the same error as I was, but the solution for me was this:

Bro Please Specify where i will add it?

[jl2035]

// bitmex example
// instance.js file

let y = ['XBTU20'];

y.forEach((pair) => {
    c.symbols.push({
        'symbol': pair,
        'periods': ['15m', '1h', '1d'],
        'exchange': 'bitmex',
        'state': 'watch',
        'extra': {
            'bitmex_leverage': 4,
            'bitmex_rest_order_sync': 45000
        },
        'trade': {

        ]
    })
});

[jordanlanch]

the configuration is:

// bitmex
let y = [
    'XBTUSD', 'ETHUSD'
]

y.forEach((pair) => {
    c.symbols.push({
        'symbol': pair,
        'periods': ['1d'],
        'exchange': 'bitmex',
        'state': 'watch',
        'extra': {
            'bitmex_leverage': 2,
            'bitmex_rest_order_sync': 45000
        },
        'trade': {
          'currency_capital': 100 // trade with 1 USD dollar
        },
        'watchdogs': [
           {
               'name': 'stoploss',
               'percent': 3,
           },
           {
               'name': 'risk_reward_ratio',
               'target_percent': 3,
               'stop_percent': 3,
           }
        ],
        'strategies': [
          {
            strategy: 'trader_custom',
            options: {
              period: '1d'
            },
          },
        ]
    })
})
