triangular trade issues, none completed. #36

hi, i applied the bot to binance for 12 hours - limit 1 trading session at getRateProfit 0.5. sharing results here.

  1. although the bot detects arbitrage opportunities, the bot never completed an arbitrary triangular trade.
  2. the bot gets stuck at step B or C but the bot starts a new trading session nevertheless.
  3. as a result:
    • BTC gets scattered over all kinds of coins (useless)
    • BTC balance becomes too low to continue trading (bot is suicidal)

the diagram of a profitable arbitrage trade seems to be misleading, since step C of a triangular trade is never completed. i would like to to state clearly that this bot doesn't succeed at triangular arbitrage (yet). the system architecture has its potential. respectfully concluding: instead of hiding behind projects make the effort to achieve successful triangular trades.

You are right. This open source project is not completely finished. The profit given may also be wrong. Only theoretically possible profit. Can't believe it completely.

Currently I am maintaining a paid version of this project. This open source version is only used as a knowledge sharing and technical discussion.

Hi,

I've downloaded and installed the bot, but I can't see where to set the pairs I want to work with.

I'm driving nuts looking to configure it. Thanks.
