  • View debug logs: the browser interface can now show the same debug logs as visible in the main process window

Breaking changes​

Normally Gunbot releases are completely backwards compatible, but this time there are a few breaking changes.

  • Reserved strategy names: the following strategy names are treated differently by the GUI: they can only be used with buy and sell methods set to fitting values for this strategy. Adding a pair with any of these strategy names leads the GUI overwriting the strategy and placing default values. Reserved: stepgrid, spotgrid, spotgridadvanced, stepgridhybrid, tenkan, futuresgrid, market_maker, market_maker (spot), custom, stepgridhedge.

If you have any existing strategies with customized settings using a reserved name (for example a strategy called 'spotgrid' with buy and sell methods set to 'tenkan'), there are two things to do if you want to keep using it in combination with the new trading settings editor: rename it to something else than a reserved name, and make sure the buy and sell methods are identical.

  • Lower case strategy names: If you use the browser interface, it will rename every strategy name, buy and sell methods to lower case characters. Only lowercase strategy names are accepted in the new trading settings editor. If you use autoconfig to set or change strategy names, it will also use lowercase names only.

  • Custom strategy file location: custom JS strategies need to be saved in the ./customStrategies folder from now on. The filename you set in STRAT_FILENAME must be from a file that exists in this folder.

Info for manual config.js handling

If you use the new default config.js file and configure Gunbot without using the GUI, then make sure to keep only one of these lines in the bot section:

orderNumber OR gunthy_wallet
