Install

Via Pip:

pip install crypto_balancer

Via source from Github:

git clone [email protected]:hammertoe/crypto_balancer.git
cd crypto_balancer
virtualenv --python=python3 .
. bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .

Config

Create a config file in config.ini with definition of your exchange and portfolio percentages, and theshold (percent) that rebalancing is needed. An example config file is included at config.ini.example but below is all you need:

[binance]
api_key = <api key>
api_secret = <api secret>
threshold = 2.0
targets = XRP 40
          BTC 20
	  ETH 20
	  BNB 10
	  USDT 10

By default it values the portfolio in USDT, this can be changed with --valuebase argument.

Running automatically

You can set this to run in a cron job on a unix system by putting something along the lines of (adjust for your path and email address) below in your crontab file:

[email protected]
*/5 * * * * OUTPUT=`cd /home/matt/crypto_balancer; bin/crypto_balancer --trade binance`; echo "$OUTPUT" | grep -q "No balancing needed" || echo "$OUTPUT"

This will run the script every 5 minutes, and will email you only if some balancing (or an error) occurs.

crypto_balancer's Issues

Out of memory when too much assets

I got some memory problem when I use more than 10 assets to rebalance.

My server is 64 GB RAM which are completly used and lead to a "process stopped", after swap was also fully used.

I suspect the loop "while todo" in the method balancer from simple_balancer.py. Is it a know "problem" ?

Is it a normal behavior and number of assets is limited to RAM available ?

Best regards,

Questions regarding your fork

Hi, I noticed your fork is recent so before trying, I'd like to ask three questions:

• in config.ini.example, the targets have an odd indentation (first with title, then the other on newline): is it mandatory?
• I suppose it uses v3 API on Binance, am I correct?
• does the balancer still work if you have A B C coins and then change the config file to points to B C D E coins?

Thanks.
