trade-bot

A simple bittrex trade bot to set slightly complex buy / sell orders.

Code is WIP and does not actually function as intended yet.

Disclaimer

This is open source software. Use at your own risk.

Running this application requires you to get an api key and secret from bittrex. If this was compromised it could lead to loss of all your coins. Always use caution, paranoia and copious common sense when running this code.

Install

go get github.com/sabhiram/trade-bot

Static files

All files related to the web front-end will be staticized using the esc tool. To do so, install the esc tool globally on you development system:

go install github.com/mjibson/esc

Run go generate from the root directory of this project.

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/sabhiram/trade-bot
go generate ./server

Developer Note: If you fork this project and change the project's name or owner, you will need to adjust the hard-coded path in the server/gen/verify.go file.

Usage

The bittrex documentation explains how to acquire a BITTREX_API_KEY and BITTREX_SECRET from your settings panel (once logged in). Once you have these you can use the trade-bot like so:

  $ BITTREX_API_KEY=<key> BITTREX_SECRET=<secret> \
      trade-bot -pair <pair> [-refresh 5s] <command>

  All 'command's will trigger once a target is hit.  Each command will
  query the user for all required parameters and confirm before being
  deployed.  Once deployed the script will query the last trade value
  for the 'pair' every 'refresh' seconds (default 5s).  Once any/all of
  the conditions are met, the appropriate action is taken.

  Where 'command' can include:

    limit-sell          -   regular on-limit sale
    stop-loss           -   simple stop loss
    high-low            -   stop-loss + limit-sell (first one wins)

  For authorizing transactions and conducting market queries, the API
  key and secret need to be provided as environment variables. The two
  required ones are:

    BITTREX_API_KEY     -   api-key from bittrex
    BITTREX_SECRET      -   secret for above key

  The api-key and secret can be accessed once you have logged in to
  bittrex in the "Settings" section under "Manage API Keys".

  Note: You must have 2-factor authentication enabled to make new keys
