Hi Spin, direct market access is good, but alt coins have much and quick volatility therefore you should be on 24/7. Because of lesser time and because of my non existing skills of manual trading I hoped for Zorro. Poloniex has an API https://poloniex.com/support/api/(BTW: I have found some bots which trade on poloniex or other exchanges (gunbot, hassobot).) crypto/crypto vs. crypto/fiat - because I live in the same country as you I need EUR in the end to pay my bills. But on the other side I want to trade with the newer and smaller altcoins because the have more potential as the older and bigger ones. So I have no other choice as crypto/crypto. Kind regards, Peter

I started working on a Kraken Plugin. For now I excluded Poloniex as they have some widrawal issues for some wallets. But I'm not sure zorro could be fully compatible with cryptocurrency exchanges. One of my worries would be if you have your main account in bitcoin, that has 8 decimals, what would happen to zorro stats, that only give results with 2 decimals. For the rest I think it might be fine. Anyone from zorro team sees any other issues ? API docs are below https://www.kraken.com/help/api#general-usageThanks Vincenzo

vinsom: that's great you're working on that. As I see it crypto markets are quite immature which means less liquidity but also less noise and more inefficiencies. I've been collecting data from Bitfinex and I see many opportunities there.

Btw. this is somewhat ontopic: because there were many scams, hacks etc. in crypto world it's probably worthwhile to check whether there are any red flags regarding particular exchange. Especially regarding regulation, audits, unbusinesslike conduct etc. A good site for that is http://digiconomist.net/fraud-risk-assessments - although in some cases an important piece of information might be missing and in other cases the risks might be overblown. For me personally the most trustworthy exchange at the moment is Bitstamp but unfortunately there've only three cryptocurrencies, no margin trading and high trading fees. Kraken, Bitfinex and Poloniex are certainly interesting exchanges for automatic trading because they provide many trading pairs and zero trading fees for market makers but they are also less reputable. I think the way to go is to split the investment among several exchanges.

Sphin: I use this application to collect the data: https://github.com/Aurora-Team/BitcoinExchangeFHCurrently I'm collecting data only for Bitfinex pairs and I store them in .csv files. I've got only one month worth of data (for most of the pairs) which is around 40 GB. It seems that you can download data for various exchanges here: http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/csv/I don't have any experience with the source though so I don't know what's the quality etc...

Withdrawing is not necessary for trading. But if you have a substantial amount you want to be free to withdraw whatever you want . And now Poloniex have substantial issues. http://www.newsbtc.com/2017/06/24/users-cant-withdraw-funds-poloniex/Also support is non existent. Is working at full capacity. Something will happen there first or after. This is my opinion and you are free to use Poloniex if you are happy with it. Regards
