About The Project

This application is a companion to the cryptocurrency trading bot Zenbot. Zenbot Sim Runner is able to import various data from Zenbot and then automate the running of simulations across multiple variations of multiple strategies.

I built this because:

• Testing and refining strategies might be a key component in an individual's journey towards any kind of live trading.
• Zenbot's built in default functionality allows running of only simulation at a time, so tweaking parameters for comparison is laborious.
• Zenbot stores simulation results in a format which does not easily allow comparison across multiple simulations.

This was primarily built for my own use and so is super-janky in places! There are no tests, no form validation, etc etc, so errors and bugs at this stage are to be expected.

Zenbot itself has disclaimers that should suffice, but just to be sure the message gets across: Use this project and Zenbot AT YOUR OWN RISK. You can and probably will lose money if and when you live trade on an exchange.

Built With

This project is basded on the PHP framework Laravel. In particular, it uses Laravel's job queue functionality to allow queueing up controlled submission of many simulation runs in one batch.

• Laravel
• Bootstrap
• JQuery
• Datatables
• Highcharts

Getting Started

docker-compose up then work through all the issues that arise! (seriously, if you are trying this then just give me a shout if you get stuck)

Prerequisites

• Zenbot
  This project is meaningless without it!
  https://github.com/DeviaVir/zenbot
• MySQL
• Redis

Installation

See 'Getting Started'

Usage

Work in progress

1. Import strategies, exchanges and products from Zenbot (this populates the corresponding MySQL tables)
2. Create a sim run batch (select strategies, refine strategies, confirm)
3. Run the batch, or individual sim runs
4. Observe queued jobs
5. View results
6. Copy batch details

zenbot-sim-runner's Issues

seems cool but... lol

"in a nutshell, you need to install the dependencies, tell it where your working instance of Zenbot is, import some data from Zenbot and away you go!"

(i think i found that part)

the but is... doesn't zenbot use mongodb? not mysql

Docker build

Hello,

This tool seems amazing, would you mind sketch docker build? I can assist if you need.

The build beaks on my linux box, I haven't found any logs so debugging seems a bit complicated.

i would prefer to dockerize the app and continue from there.

Thank you!
