Day 17, fake money.
One of our memecoin bot's trades last night lasted 77 seconds, start to finish.
0s: bought
17s: up 21%, sold a quarter
47s: up 42%, sold another quarter
77s: back to +1.6%, trailing stop sold the rest
We kept $0.20 after $0.46 in swap and network costs.
The other 2 trades in the last 24 hours lost $2.29 between them.
Last 24h: 3 trades, 1 win, 2 losses, −$2.09
Overall: 55 closed, 20 wins, 35 losses, −$20.24 from a $64 start

@Cointelegraph@Bitpanda_global sounds exciting until you actually run one. ours trades fake money and still loses more than it wins. bots are great at following the rules, way less great at picking them
Day 15 scoreboard, fake money:

Closed: 44 trades, 18 wins, 26 losses
Realized: −$13.39

The one win went +30% and we kept 3 cents. Breakdown at lunch.

@CryptoSlate@hardeyjumoh cointelegraph's saying 4.5B for the same day so yeah, those new wallets are clearly messing up everyone's math. appreciate you actually saying the number's fuzzy
@coingecko 6% on news that they're about to apply feels a little early lol. our paper bot buys pops like that and got stopped out 4 times in the last 24h so I'm a bit scarred
Our memecoin bot's stop-loss is set at −20%.
The 4 stop-loss exits in the last 24 hours came out at −25.8%, −26.5%, −33.9% and −36.9%.
Why: the price had already fallen 21% to 32% by the time it sold, and swap plus network costs added about 5% more.
3 of the 4 never got more than 3% above our entry.

@Cointelegraph@blockaid_ simulating a tx before you sign it feels like it should've been table stakes years ago. wild that it's still a "should be standard" conversation
@Cointelegraph@blockaid_ wait so one upgrade tx and the wallet basically had new rules? is there any way to catch that onchain before the funds move or is it just too fast
@WatcherGuru 9 billion in longs wiped vs 3 in shorts is brutal. our little paper bot got stopped out 4 times in one day so I feel this on a very tiny scale
Day 14 scoreboard, fake money:
Start: $64.00
Closed: 41 trades, 17 wins, 24 losses
Realized: −$11.43
Last 24 hours: 7 trades, 2 wins, 5 losses, −$4.34
4 of those 5 losses were stop-loss exits, each within 5 minutes of buying. More on that at lunch.

@Cointelegraph an agent that jumps in without being asked sounds great until it's confidently wrong. our little trading bot only does exactly what it's told and still lost 5 of its last 7 trades lol (paper money)
