I know a minimal amount of coding and I'm basically trying to set up simultaneous stop loss and take profit orders. So for example, if the price of BTC becomes higher than 9500 USDT, I want to market sell my BTC position. Likewise, if it drops to below 8500, I also wanna sell it at market price as well. I want to keep my position as long as the price stays in this range. The below code I attempted to use gives the 'child process has dies' error. What's wrong with it? Can somebody help?

var strat = {};

// Prepare everything our strat needs
strat.init = function() {
  // setting take profit price
  this.proPrice = 9500;

  // setting stop loss price
  this.losPrice = 8500;
}

strat.check = function(candle) {
    if(candle.close <= this.losPrice) {
        this.advice(“short”);
        return;
    }
    if(candle.close >= this.proPrice) {
        this.advice(“short”);
        return;
    }
}

module.exports = strat;

Hi everyone. 

I am trying to sort out a simple Crossover EMA strat. But I can't workout how to import two EMA indicators or how to code that in general. 

has anybody done this who can point me in the right direction?

where put the amount for trading ?

Hi, can anyone give me a gekko that works on trade live with advice? because I do not know much about it and wanted it to buy and sell itself, but the only thing I can do is simulation. can any one help me?

In this tutorial you can learn how to setup indicators.

>>>i have randoomly choosen Tulip indicators but it could be eny avilable indicators for gekko.
>>>>>the test results are all in the same uptrend/period and should only show the trigger points.
>>>>>>>WARNING THESE STRATEGIES ARE NOT PROFITABLE ENOUGH OVER TIME.
(((((it needs more than one indicator-if-statement to become a profitable trader)))))

Some indicators have two or three options (user input averaging length) and more than one output.
In this case, Arrays are used to set the inputs or read the output values.

First a simple RSI (realtime strength index) with one input/output
////////Test results: BASSic RSI

When developing a strategie it may be useful to look at the cpu-time needed for calculating one candle.
This would indicate a abnormal increase in processing time, if the newer code would be faulty. (looopsy-dooo)

We can use the built in date function to messure the total backtest time.
cpu time = backtest time total / ammount of candles

in the init we capture the start time

In the following tutorial you can learn how to:

-build a useful timecursor for our debug purposes
>>> use a Array
>>>>> use a for loop

>>>ONLY START THE SIMULATION WHEN I ASK YOU TO (incomplete snippets wont work)

IF YOU ARE NEW TO GEKKO AND JAVA SCRIPT, PLEASE LOOKING FOR [TUT] #1
BASSic TULIP RSI

The timecursor, can be added to eny debug line.
First in the settings we set the Start date, of the Backtest period.
Then the time cursor will calculate the same date/time as we looking at in the gekko --ui Test result waveform window.
...the time reference to eny event...

For solving the month/day problem we use our first Array where we simply preset the monthdays, for each month, into it.

The simple way for the time reference would be, the build-in date function, but i found that it will have lots of decimal places.
To go around we could use the function:

i have a few strategies running wih different candle size against the live market.

How can i see in the list of running strats the candle size i had selected?

Thanks for your reply.

I will pay for make a system using 2 moving average and a candlestick pattern (one bar only).

I will pay after job is done or using any site wich you have good reviews 

Bot Needs to works on bitfinex and be easy to adapt to any other broker gekko supports

I paid a lot of money to make a Bot for Sierra Chart but now I am not able to use it because bitmex is a scam and reject 70% of orders 

It is too much difficult to convert a system from Sierra Charts to gekko?
