Quick Start

Set up

1. Follow README.md to install the bot;
2. Fill the config.
   1. Set bot’s passPhrase — create a separate ADAMANT account for it
   2. admin_accounts — add your own ADAMANT account from which you’ll send commands to bot
   3. Set exchange to P2PB2B or Azbit (soon we will add Binance), pair, and apikey/apisecret.

Basics

1. First make sure everything is alright with the installation;
2. Start a chat with the bot. The bot will ignore contacts from accounts not in admin_accounts;
3. Rename the bot. You can name it like Test CoinOptimus [Pair@Exchange] for your convenience. Info about chats in ADAMANT Messenger helps on this;
4. Send /balances command to it (note: all the commands start with slash /), and you should get a reply: P2PB2B balances:
0.00972085 BTC
643.40463 DOGE
376 369.1 VCN (347 077.39 available & 29 291.71 frozen)
2.11177553 LTC
970.09399713 USDT (929.02178413 available & 41.072213 frozen)
Total holdings ~ 1 354.02 USD or 0.06648047 BTC
Total holdings (non-VCN) ~ 1 354.02 USD or 0.06648047 BTC.

You are all set!

Start trading

To start trading with Ladder/ Grid strategy, use: /start ld {AMOUNT} {COIN} {COUNT} {STEP%} [mid {MIDPRICE} COIN2]

• AMOUNT — order value in COIN. Amount will be with random factor 2%. It’s a float number with precision depending on exchange. AMOUNT can be in COIN1 or COIN2
• COUNT — number of orders each side, buy and sell
• STEP% — how much consequent orders will differ by price
• Price is a float number with precision depending on exchange
• [mid {MIDPRICE} COIN2] — optional middle price setting. If not set, midprice will be (hb + la) / 2

The command asks for a confirmation before run

Example

/start ld 10 USDT 5 2%

Stopping

If you want to stop (pause) the bot, run the command: /stop. It will pause trading, but it will not cancel open orders. Use /clear all command to cancel orders. Note: it will cancel all orders, including those placed via exchange’s website.

Manual orders

You can place manual /buy and /sell orders. If you need to remove some type of orders, use /clear command. Try: /buy VCN/USDT quote=7 The bot will buy VCN for 7 USDT at market price.

/buy VCN/USDT quote=7 price=0.0059 The bot will place an order to buy VCN for 7 USDT at 0.0059 price.

/buy VCN/USDT amount=2000 price=0.0059 The bot will place an order to buy 2000 VCN at 0.0059 price.

Current parameters

See your bot’s settings with /params command.

Notifications

The bot sends notifications on warnings and errors, which you’ll probably want to handle. For example, balance is not enough.
