Hackico: history feature to analyze past daily ICOs of the EOS ICO

in #utopian-io6 years ago

Repository

This create an opportunity to profit: the daily ICO price won't always be aligned with the market price due to various reason (FOMO, finishing ICO time compared to investors timezone, loss of popularity, spam attacks...).
We use two strategies:

  • we enter the ICO before the last minute. The price is decided at the end so most of people join at the end. You can see nice chart here: http://eosscan.io/
  • we choose an expected return before we get in. For instance you can choose to only enter, if at the time of calculation (as explained before) the expected return is 20% because you are greedy or 5% if you are prudent.

New Features

Small feature:
Choose the thresold at which you want to get in with the option ./hackico -t X:

-t float
        threshold to decide when we get in. 5 % is conservative, 20% is greedy ;-) (default 9.37)

Main feature:
History of daily ICOs
You can check how the previous daily ICOs went(would you have earn or lost money joining in). This feature computes the percentage between the daily ICO price and the market price and print the results in a coloured array.
This function uses the cryptocompare historical hourly API for the price data. We rely on the closing price to compute the percentage.
You can check up to the last 80 days (due to API limitation), using ./hackico -h X with X being the number of days you want to inspect.

-h uint
        How many days of history do you want to print? Max: 80!

Lines in RED means that the percentage of the expected gain was negative. BLUE means it was positive.

A very nice touch with the colours.
The history gives perspective.

Thanks for your review. Also thanks for posting the evaluation. I am not a pro dev and I have been developing mainly for myself. So I must lack a lot of good practices and feedback help me learn, specially in the open source world.
