bttrxr

Command line interface for trading on bittrex.

Features

bttrxr accepts percentages for buy/sell amounts and for buy/sell prices. This way, you don't have to type in an exact decimal value for anything.
The rates that bttrxr uses for the calculations are refreshed on every command. If you make a buy, it uses the lowest ask price in that instant of time. If you make a sell, it uses the highest bid price.
The list, balance, and order commands display in nice colored and formatted tables with several sorting options
This command saves alot of time. If you add your api keys to the environmental variables, you will rarely have to login to bittrex.
There is a --dryRun option for both buying and selling. This means you can use it for estimations and calculations as well as testing the commands before you run them.

Installation

Prerequisite

Have Node.js installed

npm install -g bttrxr
bttrxr --help

Configuration

in linux, add the following lines to the end of your .bashrc or .zshrc

export BITTREX_API_KEY=your-api-key
export BITTREX_API_SECRET=myreallylongsecret

Disclaimer

This is a dangerous command! Use it at your own risk! I am not responsible for the trades this program makes!
You should always run it with the --dryRun argument first to get an estimate on your trade.
I have thouroughly tested these commands with all their options and everything seems fine to me, but if you find an issue, feel free to submit it =)
If you have any suggestions, feel free to submit them too!
