how to understand if the bot is working?

[Rocky-04]

I can't figure out whether the bot is working successfully or not. The bot works for several hours, but there are no purchases and sales. What could be the problem?

Hi! 0 buy and 0 sell orders it's malfunction state. Normal operational status is same order (min 1) for grid side and one TP. For short time after start or restart cycle only grid orders are possible, this is the grid shift mode.

Thank you. Why might there be such an error?

Hi!

First - try clear start, without

Restore saved state after restart? Y:
y

next -

22/08 10:30:41 For Rocky critical memory availability, end

The strategy is focused for use on cheap VPS with limited memory and before start cycle tested availability memory, if used_memory > 70% of total - don't start.

Thanks, solved the problem. I tried to run on the main account, but a new error occurs:

main.account_name: Binance
Exception on register client: UNKNOWN, Unexpected <class 'IndexError'>: tuple index out of range

Why might there be such an error? Index pointed - 1

[DogsTailFarmer]

Hi! Reason is incomplete account setup, it's two part:

• for server it is exchanges_wrapper/exch_srv_cfg.toml, where you place API key and account name

• for client it's martin_binance/ms_cfg.toml, where you add account name into exchange list

The account name must be identically for account.

I update readme and add handler for this error some later. Thank's, Jerry.

Hi! 'Demo - Binance' and 'Binance' work differently. Demo makes more orders than the main account. Why is this happening?
I ran two tests at the same time and saw that the first order had a different purchase price.

[DogsTailFarmer]

Hi!

It's normal. Amount first grid order depend from step_size (trade rules for exchange/account/pair and may be different for test and real place - compare it) and some another parameters:

        if not additional_grid and not grid_update and not GRID_ONLY and PROFIT_MAX < 100:
            k_m = 1 - PROFIT_MAX / 100
            amount_first_grid = max(amount_min, (step_size * base_price / ((1 / k_m) - 1)) / base_price)

For what? It is important for the TP order to meet the specified maximum price step, no more PROFIT_MAX, the smaller the volume of the first order, the greater the price spread for the TP sale. Trading rules for the pair are requested from the exchange when the strategy is initiated.

[DogsTailFarmer]

And what is noted in the figures is not the purchase price, but the order volume in the second currency.
