Good day everyone, I hope all is well.
Scalpyh (scalpy-hive) is a small open-source trading bot that operates on the internal Hive market. This bot uses the concept from candle-maker but now acts upon the data collected.
Written in Javacript.
❗Important notes❗:
- Scalpy requires the Private Active Key in order to place market orders. Please be careful where you copy & paste this key.
- Scalpyh currently only uses 2 basic indicators (ema + macd) to determine buy & sell flags. You are not guaranteed to make any profit using this script.
- USE AT OWN RISK
Trading logic + strategy:
As indicated in the name, the bot uses the concept of scalping to try and make small profits on each trade (Minimum 0.001 HBD / HIVE).
Trading seems as simple as "Buy low -> sell high", but in reality, this concept is very hard to implement on any market. So to try and "predict" the movement of the market, scalpy (currently) uses the EMA(100) + MACD(12, 26, 9) technical indicators to determine ideal Buy / Sell opportunities.
buyHive() signal algo:
const tradingAlgo = (prevEma, prevmacd, prev2macd, preCandle) => {
if ( parseFloat(preCandle.close) > parseFloat(prevEma)
&& parseFloat(prevmacd.MACD) > parseFloat(prevmacd.signal)
&& parseFloat(prev2macd.MACD) < parseFloat(prev2macd.signal) && parseFloat(prev2macd.MACD) < 0
) {
return true;
}
return false
}
buyHbd() signal algo:
const tradingAlgoSell = (prevEma, prevmacd, prev2macd, preCandle) => {
if ( parseFloat(preCandle.close) < parseFloat(prevEma)
&& parseFloat(prevmacd.MACD) < parseFloat(prevmacd.signal)
&& parseFloat(prev2macd.MACD) > parseFloat(prev2macd.signal) && parseFloat(prev2macd.MACD) > 0
) {
return true;
}
return false
}
Buying one asset will automatically calculate the minimum profit & place an order (+ profit ) for the other asset.
