[size=12pt][b]Haasonline Simple Trade Bot For Bitstamp and BTCe[/b][/size]
[b]Introduction[/b]
I started this topic here to promote and discuss (my) the haasonline simple trading bot. The simple trading bot is a bot created for the BTCe exchange to speculate on all available crypto currencies of BTCe. This topic here is meant to discuss the trading bot itself. How its works, that is works, what about improvements and stuff like that.Please keep in mind this is a simple trading bot. I am working on a lot more advanced one. This advanced one is not for sale yet and is still in its prototype stage. I will not disclose any detailed information on it at this moment. However depending on the success of the software sales of the simple trade bot i will continue my work on the advanced one. This simple bot must remain… well simple and to the point.

[b]Warning[/b]
Please be aware there are already spotted some scam versions of the Haasonline simple trading bot. Please do not fall for them, they are most likely API and secret key stealers and the scammers can do a lot of harm with this keys. If you buy or download this copies and start using it you will put your own coins at risk. There is only 1 valid version and that one can only be bought from Haasonline. Again, this is for your own safety, not mine![b]Earnings from the bot(s)[/b]
If you speculate on crypto currency you know there is a risk involved. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. When you use this simple trade bot the risk of losing coins is set to a minimum (by default). However this will also affect the earnings, if the risk is low the profit will be low to because low risks are taken. So everything depend on the parameters you enter into the trading bot and also how the currency evolve during time. There is no golden rule to say this will work or this will work. You can discuss the best settings here if you like, however i can not give any good advice on it.The parameters make the bot also operate in a unique way. This way if a lot of people are using this simple bot the effect on the exchange is always unique.
I recently added some schemes to explain how the logic of my simple trade bot has been build up. If you are interested in my software i recommend to take a look at these documents, this gives you a better understanding how i programmed the bot(s) and how the reasoning is done in detail.

www.haasonline.com/downloads/PollLogic.pdfI will add more documents in time. For now i have to help some people getting started with the software.
[b]Please be fair to me[/b]
I have invested a lot of time for developing this trading bot. I also put some other people to work to help me to support this software. Please be fair to me and keep this software for your self if you have bought it. Also please respond as fair as possible in this topic. Like i stated before i am only interested in earning some coins for my work and helping the community. This sounds unlikely these days, but its true. The only thing is asking is to be fair when you respond. It is really hard for me to show everybody i am not a scam like the other bots.[b]Help me [/b]
You can also help me a little. Please keep a eye out for scams that appear of my software. Notify the administrators and me if you see them. I having already a hard time fighting the scam versions and to keep my name clear. Any help is welcome for me (and the entire community in the end).[b]Check my work[/b]
If you have bought this bot you are free to analyse it fully the way you like. I already received some reports of people using this simple bot in a sandbox and/or second BTCe account. I fully support this. Please analyse all the web traffic generated by this bot, everything you want to keep your mind a ease. Be sure to post your finding also in this topic, you will be helping me and others by telling your findings.I have created a new section on my website where i put the APIs which i use to power this bot. Those APIs are available in open-source (for developers). This will enable everybody to build a bot like i did. I did not release the main source of the simple bot (yet). This is because i want to keep my work for myself.
[b]Promotion[/b]
I really, really want to prove i am not a scam and my software is valid. Therefore i send my trade bot to some forum members already to let them evaluate it. I will post there review (link) here as soon as they become available.[Links to reviews will be added here]
Because this is not the only forum i am active with my promotion, please take a look at the websites listed below to. There you will find more information about my software and maybe the answers to questions you may have already.
[url=http://www.haasonline.com]My personal website www.haasonline.com[/url]
[url=https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=211979.0]Bitcoin Talk Forum Topic[/url]
[url=https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,3258.0.html]LiteCoin Forum Topic[/url][b]Special promotion on the FeatherCoin forum[/b]
I will reward the first people who have bought the bot and post there findings in this topic. I will give a cashback of 33% of the price in return for a fair response in this topic. Be quick if you want to make use of this promotion stunt, it is limited the the first people only as a promotion.[b]Availability[/b]
The simple trade bot can already be bought aldo i am still developing. That the bot(s) works has been proven already multiple times by me and the testers, however i am still making minor changes to it to improve its stability and to enhance its usability. As you may have read, if you have bought this bot and you are a registered user then you will receive updates automatically by mail. The same already applies to the reviewers/testers of my software.To order the bot you have to send a mail to [u]simplebot [at] haasonline [dot] com[/u] The automated system will read you mail and return a mail with instructions back. Please follow these instructions and you will receive the bot as soon as possible. All orders will also be checked by hand. The automated system is brand new and not fully tested therefore we do a manual checkup before the software is send to you. You can be sure you have the software within 24-hours.
Please PM me if anything goes wrong with your order.
The price for this bot is set to 0.6 BTC
[b]Money back[/b]
I will not honor any request for money back. The simple bot is sold as it is, fully at your own risk. You get support and updates for the price you have paid. If the bot does not work properly i will have a look at it and try to fix it. However, if you are asking you coins back because you can not get the bot to work good for you i can not help you. The is a decision i made because i can never ever guarantee you will get rich from this bot. Everything depends on how the currency evolves and the parameters entered by the bot. It just like speculation done by hand, there are never any guaranties you will make profit.And yes i use my bot too, but i will not share my personal settings. I take wins and losses everyday, if i share my settings i will get complains about the losses, i can not afford that.
[b]Request to admins[/b]
Please contact me if i am doing something wrong or if you have your doubts about my software. Give me a way to prove i am real, do not directly close this topic. I am already having a hard time fighting the scams of my software and others on the internet.BTW Sorry for my poor English. Please remember i am a developer, my talent is in software languages and logic not in spoken languages or advertisement. I am open for improvements or suggestions.
And… of course FeatherCoins of BTCe are supported by the haasonline simple trade bot. :)

[/quote]Thanks for moving this topic. I thought this topic belonged to the project section.
About the safety of this product i am selling. I can only assure there is no unwanted code inside. No viruses, trojan horses or whatever.
However, if you buy this software or a bot of somebody else please use one or more of the following methods to make sure the software does not things you do not want:
- Be aware of scams, there are a lot of fake bots around!
- Always run the software sandboxed of in a virtual PC to lockout your computer system.
- Connect to a second BTCe account, this way if you get scammed you will not lose your coins directly.
- Keep your anti-virus and fire wall up-to-date and running.
- Debug the files you get, search for email adresses or websites inside the code (use a HEX editor or disassembler)
- Monitor the webtraffic generated by the software, make sure no hidden data is send.
These are the recommendations i can make. I’ve learned them from my testers group. They have used this methods on my software during validation checkups.
The last recommendation is to wait for people to confirm if the software works. In my case i have now 3 people here who now have a copy of my software and validating it. If it works and it it is valid. The confirmation will come in time. You can also look at the topics i have written down in the topic start. (i can recommend the discussion on bitcoin talk, you will see everybody admitting in the end)

If you want to provide the Feathercoin administration a copy to evaluate, I’d be willing to do it for the community. I can setup a sandbox environment and run it through it’s paces.

[/quote]I should have mentioned this earlier but UKMark has an evaluation version already to test. He will report back here shortly. This software has been well received over at BitcoinTalk and I have verified that it is the same chap selling this software over there and here.

Yes i have send UKMark a evaluation copy for approval, and some other mod. I have to look into it for his name. (i see to many names flying around, sorry, i will PM it if i find out) I did not say the name of UKMark because in that case i will make a promise he will post his findings. In case he does not post it there will be no people waiting for his review.
I am very happy seeing this forum helping me to prevent frauds and scams making topics here with my software. It has happened before and i am sure it will happen again. This kind of software is a very wanted target by hackers and scams. On the internet you already can find so called free copies of my software which in fact are scams. (therefore is put a warning in the topic start)
I am also happy that you have seen that everybody at the bitcoin talk forum is happy with my software. My target was to earn the trust and to sell my simple bot. It looks like this dream of mine will come true. Sales are raising slowly and the trust becomes higher every day. I am really, really happy because of this.
Edit: I have added a new page to my website. The page is called “Promotions” and everybody should be able to take a look if i have active promotions. Using the promotions you can earn a discount of the software.

[/quote]I think that’s me :)
And so far software is clean, installing now. VirusTotal 0/47 and my AVG didn’t pick it up too =)
-
He has sent it to me too, you are correct Virus Total 0/47 it just threw a Symantec [url=http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2010-021223-0550-99]Suspicious.Insight[/url] - Risk Level 1: Very Low < You have to look deep for it BTW & it basically means they are erring on the side of caution due to it being a relatively new file in terms of Symantec users. < Always bear in mind when ever testing that the most sophisticated virus will be the one that passes.
I have not traded with it yet, but have decompiled and ran it through System [url=http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx]Process Monitor[/url] on a sacrificial machine, I have asked Stephan a few questions and I will hopefully try to trade with it tomorrow with a view to writing a brief report about it and the overall user experience by the end of the week.
-
There are really no viruses inside. ;D The warning may indeed be the cause that the software is unknown yet. It could be related to a security setting that i have put in during the build of the binaries. I will have a look at it, thanks for that comment!
I responded to the questions with the PM.
-
As UKMark said, program is clean and works. Have nut testing the functionality as I’ve been busy organizing bits and bobs on the forum and don’t want to loose money because of my error. Will have to give the guide a read :)

[/quote]Well if there are I will do my damnedest to trace them as I feel I have an unwritten responsibility to do so.
What I can say is I have not noticed anything untoward, and all threads do start & exit cleanly. 8)I have replied to your PM re the security permissions.
I am going to try and trade with it now, all being well I can complete evaluation later on today or tomorrow.

I know I said I was going to write a brief report on my findings, but after receiving a response to my last PM to Stephan, I feel everything needed for a report is included in both of the following messages…
[b]My Original message:[/b]
[quote author=UKMark link=action=profile;u=68 date=1370527173]
Hi Stephan,As you know I wanted to start trading today, but have already hit a slight hitch, I can not trade [i]past[/i] 4 decimal places (which for FTC’s current price is not much use if I did want to trade the high/low pips eg: 0.00061sell 0.00059buy) also even without the 5th decimal place the bot was stopped because my buy was too low even though it was 10pips away and all trade safety was unchecked at the time - I have attached a screen grab and I have highlighted the relevant bits:
[img]http://mtgoxlagometer.herobo.com/test/forumstyle/marcus/bot3.PNG[/img]
This will not affect my report as I know from reviews over on Bitcointalk that the bot can successfully trade BTC, but from this forums point of view and for trading FTC - we would need this fixing or a possible workaround mentioning until it is fixed…
All in all I am impressed and can see you have put a lot of hard work into the trading engine itself, I realise it is still in beta and does obviously need fine tuning.
I have mainly security concerns though, not from your code itself as all noted threads started and exited cleanly, all tcp connections were closed and no rogue processes continued after code completion, but from an end users point of view, what worries me the most is the permissions and abilities that your code can permit, what drew my concerns initially was that it did not flag any tcp connection warnings from eset or microsoft security essentials that it was attempting to connect remotely and communicate via RPC’s < This needs to be fixed at permission level, it needs to request it rather than grant it to itself, this could be exploited and while I have not studied your source for any exploits you can guarantee due the nature of this software that someone will be doing just that. I also feel the SkipVerication=true attribute is an unnecessarily user security risk < especially if it is currently set because your code won’t run without it - (but do check if this can be set to false and debug further if needed) this setting allows for unsafe code execution and because of that I could only recommend this is used in a sanboxed or vm environment (which I note you do suggest to do this already).I know you asked for me to be fair and I feel that I am being fair, both on yourself and the FTC community in general, although I am open to taking on board your response to this message that may alleviate my above concerns.
I look forward to your reply,
Cheers,
Mark

[b]Stephan’s reply:[/b]
[quote author=haasonline link=action=profile;u=1201 date=1370532595]
Hi mark,The safety warning you see is a backup safety that is normally not visible. Is is a hidden safety to prevent users to enter a higher value to buy and a lower value to sale. I it just a precaution to prevent stupid trades. (you will notice the bot deactivated itself after this message) My best guess is that the rounding is not done properly and therefore the hidden safety kick in. I will look at that because that is a real bug, this should not happen. Especially not for FTC.
I already added some changes to the next release to support more decimals then i do now. I got a lot of responses about it from the other users. Hopefully this will do, else i will add one more later on. This must solve the trade issues with coins that have a low value like FTC and CNC.
BTW You can confirm this by looking at the change log on my website. If i get errors or requests i will investigate how much time is needed and then i schedule them.
BTW the next release is planned for 11th June 2013.
As i said before i will have a look at the security. I give the application by default a lot of rights. You are right this can be exploited by somebody else. I surely will look into this and try to follow the rules of Microsoft. I did not do this before because i thought that the software should work directly. I wanted to prevent errors from rights. But you are right, i will fully investigate this part. Hopefully i can do this before the next release. I am expecting this will take a while to setup everything properly.
In the mean time i am mailing with BTCe about a secure SSL -like connection to there exchange. I hope they will implement this so i can improve security even more. (it will be a option, because some people are monitoring the web-traffic i generate, i want to keep supporting them doing this.)
Please do not be afraid that i do not like you because you are fair. I matter of fact i am really happy with this. People like you that investigate help me directly with improving my software. So please… post your findings on the board. This way everybody can read it and i can respond publicly back. Like this thing with the decimals, that part is really good information for the potential buyer from this form. They may want to want till the next release (or something like that).
[/quote]
[b]Conclusion:[/b]
I feel this has got the makings of a brilliant application for any trader, a lot of thought & work has gone into the trading engine already and can only get better from here on in, yes there are bugs, but it is in Beta and Stephan has agreed he will continue development and listen to user feedback, which judging by his latest changelog he is doing. For the time being I do suggest like Stephan has already stated that this is at least ran Sandboxed or in a VM, preferably on a separate HD away from the main OS, obviously once any security issues have been addressed then the end user can be far less paranoid.
I look forward to the 11th June for the updated release. 8)

Is the 0.2 giveback available for FTC forum users as before you posted this on the other forums you seem to have closed the giveback promotion?
-
@UKMark:
Thank you very much for your time and testing of my software. I and i guess the entire community are grateful you have did this. I also thank you for being as fair as you can be. Yes, if you are paranoid you better run this software in a sandbox of virtual machine. If you are not then you can install it normally. (remember your firewall and anti-virus to keep running) But like i stated from the beginning, and what has been confirmed again, my software is safe to use.Regarding the update… [u]it seems that my software has a decimal to less to make good trades with FTC[/u] (and some other coins) this will result in a error message in the log. I am planning on releasing the update on the 10th or 11th of June 2013. This new release will support a additional decimal making trades with FTC working properly. The people who have bought the software already or the coming days will automatically receive a update of the software by mail. All registered users will always get the latest version.
Note: I will introduce [u]a additional RSI-60 bot[/u] and a [u]new safety[/u] with the same time of the coming update.
For the exact changes look here:

[/quote]For the FTC forum this promotion is still running. I am also running more promotions, you can find them in the link below if you or anybody else is interested.

Stephan maybe you should ask for your required translations on the forum stating your reward, I know we have Russian and Chinese members that may be willing to help you. 8)
Also look closely at the following syntax error I found on your website:

That is good thinking. I will post it there. :)
Oh and i have changed your name on my website. Did you mind i posted it? You did a good review. I am still hoping to be published by other blogs elsewhere.

I just have release a new version of the Haasonline Simple Trade Bot.
[img]http://www.haasonline.com/images/stbmainscreen1.png[/img]
The following changes are made:
- A new bot has been added, a RSI-60 bot.
- The trade ratio bot has been updated.
- The high/log bot can now pre-trade (faster then human trading)
- A drop safety has been added. This safety ensures a specific drop before a buy is allowed to made.
- Bot parameters are loaded and safed during startup and shutdown.
- For the tweakers among us there is a new advanced setting allowing the parameters to be loaded on every update.
- A new decimal is added for better support inputs values. (5 instead of 4 decimals now)
- Exception handeling is added.
- Some other errors and minor changes are done like improving logbook messages.
Please consult the online change log and online help of the software for more details.
http://www.haasonline.com/index.php/stb/stbchangelog
http://www.haasonline.com/index.php/stb/stbhelpmailAll registered users will get a email today with the lasted software.
Please note:
I did not made all the changes suggested by UKMark. The software still needs full trust, but the unsafe code is now disabled. I hope to make the software more secure for the next update. -
Yay we can finally use to trade FTC :)
I left running last night and it made it’s first FTC sell, although why did it make it 3pips higher than which I set? eg My Sell set @ 0.00108 - Bot Sold @ 0.0011 - Not that I am complaining as it made me more money :D
Also there appears to be a very, very slight bug in the actual trade amount, the figure shown changes from time to time but as you can see it is a big difference…
[img]http://mtgoxlagometer.herobo.com/test/forumstyle/bot4.PNG[/img]
But overall this is much, much better as far as being able to trade FTC! Good job! 8)
