2023-12-04 ETHBTC-THANG! Day 190

Let's do the ETHBTC-THANG!

I record the $ETH and $BTC prices from @Levana_protocol and $ADA price from @Indigo_protocol, and record these values into my SPREADSHEETSZORXEN!




The EMA20s show that $ADA is a good buy, vis-à-vis both $ETH and $BTC, but that's not my aim, so no swap.




On my on-going 0.0632 $ETH -> $BTC-swap, I have a sell-order hit on @TeamKujira FIN wETH/axlUSDC on a flash-up-then-flash-down price-spike for $wETH.




The lowest price for $wBTC is on the wBTC/USK board, so I place a swap from my claimed $axlUSDC to $USK first.



Today's ETHBTC-THANG!-report (which I'll get to presently), recommends a $BTC -> $ETH swap, so that's exactly what I do, withdrawing the $wBTC from @TeamKujira Ghost. 



I swap $wBTC -> $MNTA, which hits quickly, then I swap $MNTA -> $KUJI, as that's $MNTA's highest ask.





An older $BTC -> $ETH order hits, specifically, $wBTC -> $KUJI. 




I sell the claimed $KUJI for $ATOM, as that's the highest ask for $KUJI, eyeing buying $wETH, eventually.



The current $BTC -> $ETH order is also seeing action with a $MNTA -> $KUJI hit, so I place a $KUJI -> $axlUSDC sell-order, as that is the highest $KUJI-ask AND looks promising for a $wETH buy-order in short order. 



The KUJI/axlUSDC sell order is quickly followed by an axlUSDC/USK swap, as the wETH/USK @TeamKujira FIN order book has the best bid for $wETH.




Placing that bid, I see I'll get 0.066 $wETH from the swap.




The original aim was 0.0024 $BTC -> 0.04 $ETH, so I'm doing 50% better!

Now: is it time to BUY $ETH or $BTC? Sure it is! It always is that time!



But my yields on @Indigo_protocol, given the fees, are not enough to purchase today.

I'll check again, tomorrow.

Limit catch-all orders: Q&A

This is a Q&A session with Micah 🥶 concerning my limit catch-all orders article:

Micah 🥶: Is the difference between these "catch-all"s and a stink bid simply that you're looking for markets with low liquidity that you know will produce these wicks? How are you even sensing market conditions are right to place such bids? What's your hit-rate?

  1. Nah. I have catch-all orders all over the FIN marketplace, or, more specifically: on the order books that have tokens I care about. Low-liquidity order books do have some amazing spikes, but if those spikes are with a token I dislike/don't see a future in, I shy away.
  2. The catch-alls are 'anti-market-conditions'-based. I 'fire-and-forget.' That is: I place a catch-all, then go on with my life.

    I don't base my investment strategy around catch-alls. If a catch-all hits, great! If not, I can wait. So a catch-all is a tactic, not a strategy.

  3. I do, in the end, care about catch-all hit rates, so I monitor the order books, and focus more on placing catch-alls where I've seen craziness before.

    Most of the time, I place catch-alls, then simply wait a week, a month, a half-year. Even then, the returns are fantabulous.

Now, 'sink-bids' vs. catch-alls.

There are sell catch-alls, as well, and sometimes I have more success with those than on the buy-side. So a sink-bid may focus only on the dips (?), but catch-alls cover both rock-bottoms and sky-highs.
