Asynchronous Bitshares arbitrage bot

An arbitration bot only works inside bitshares. The bot builds up the volume of four assets: BTS, BRIDGE.BTC, CNY, USD. Market pairs are taken from third party API using the bitshares node with ES plugin. Then market pairs are added to the chains along which the bot works. The description of the arbitration algorithm is in the module src.algorithms.arbitryalgorithm.

Current issue

The problem is the incorrect calculation of the final volumes for placing orders. Due to a small error in the calculations, it is not possible to place orders. I tried various solutions to this problem, but have not yet come to success.

How bot works

scheme

Getting started

The following actions were performed on ubuntu 18.10

Installing Bitshares node and wallet

vi /etc/apt/sources.list

# Add repo.
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-security main

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install autoconf cmake make automake libtool git libboost-all-dev libssl-dev g++ libcurl4-openssl-dev libgconf-2-4 libcurl3

wget https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-core/releases/download/2.0.190219/BitShares-Core-2.0.190219-Linux-cli-tools.tar.gz

tar -xzvf BitShares-Core-2.0.190219-Linux-cli-tools.tar.gz

rm BitShares-Core-2.0.190219-Linux-cli-tools.tar.gz

Configuring node

sudo apt-get install supervisor

sudo vi /etc/supervisor/conf.d/bts_node.conf

[program:bts_node]
command=/home/<user>/programs/witness_node/witness_node --rpc-endpoint="127.0.0.1:8091"
directory=/home/<user>/programs/witness_node/
stdout_logfile=/var/log/supervisor/bts_node_out.log
stderr_logfile=/var/log/supervisor/bts_node_err.log
autostart=true
autorestart=true
numprocs=1
user=<user>

When the node is synchronized - go to the next step.

Configuring wallet

cd programs/cli_wallet/
./cli_wallet --server-rpc-endpoint=ws://127.0.0.1:8091 -r 127.0.0.1:8093
set_password <your_super_pwd>
unlock <your_super_pwd>
import_key <user_name> <priv_key>

sudo vi /etc/supervisor/conf.d/bts_wallet.conf

[program:bts_wallet]
command=/home/<user>/programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet --server-rpc-endpoint=ws://127.0.0.1:8091 -r 127.0.0.1:8093
directory=/home/<user>/programs/cli_wallet/
stdout_logfile=/var/log/supervisor/bts_wallet_out.log
stderr_logfile=/var/log/supervisor/bts_wallet_err.log
autostart=true
autorestart=true
numprocs=1
user=<user>

sudo supervisorctl reread

sudo supervisorctl update

sudo supervisorctl start bts_node

sudo supervisorctl start bts_wallet

NOTE:

If error while trying to run wallet:

systemctl daemon-reload

systemctl enable NGINX.service

systemctl start NGINX.service

systemctl -l status NGINX.service

Filling nginx.conf

Don't forget to change stubs in nginx.conf on yours values.

vi /etc/sysctl.conf

# Add next line in the end of the file.
fs.file-max = 40000

sysctl -p

vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

}

systemctl restart NGINX.service

or do

systemctl reload NGINX.service

Adding ssl

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Adding ssl you will get a memory leak due to the fact 
that the aiohttp 3.5.4 library with python3.7 contains a memory leak when working with ssl.
So , do not use ssl until this bug is fixed.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install certbot python-certbot-nginx 

certbot --nginx -d wallet.domain.com certonly

crontab -e
# Add next line for auto updating cert.
@daily certbot renew

# Change values in /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf.
ssl_session_cache shared:le_nginx_SSL:100m;
ssl_session_timeout 4h;

NOTE

If something was wrong -> reboot your system and try again , in 99 percent of the happenings it helps :D

After previous steps uncomment lines in nginx.conf and replace domens on yours. Then reboot your system.

Server security setting

Adding SSH keys

# On your local car.
ssh-keygen
mv key_name* ~/.ssh/
ssh-copy-id user@server_ip

# On remote server. 
# Disable pas auth.
sudo vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
-> replace yes to no in PasswordAuthentication line
sudo systemctl reload sshd

Configuring UFW

Сhange firewall settings to your liking.

ufw default deny incoming 
ufw default allow outgoing
ufw allow ssh
ufw enable
ufw allow from <your ip> to any port www
ufw allow from <your ip> to any port 443

Installing and usage bot

The following procedure will work in Debian based Linux, more specifically the commands to make the guide were executed in Ubuntu 18.10 with Python 3.7.

# Installing python 3.7
sudo apt-get install build-essential checkinstall
sudo apt-get install libreadline-gplv2-dev libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev \
    libsqlite3-dev tk-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libbz2-dev libffi-dev
cd /usr/src
sudo wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.7.2/Python-3.7.2.tgz
sudo tar xzf Python-3.7.2.tgz
cd Python-3.7.2
sudo ./configure --enable-optimizations
sudo make install
Python-3.7.2 -V

# Cloning repository
git clone https://github.com/mkbeh/rin-bitshares-arbitry-bot
cd rin-bitshares-arbitry-bot

# Creating and activating virtual env
sudo pip install virtualenv 
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate

pip3.7 install Cython
pip3.7 install numpy

# Installing bot
python3.7 setup.py install

# Running bot
Just type rin-bot in the command line and press enter.

On first app startup will be generated config, which must be filled. Config is located -> /home/<user>/rin-bot/config.ini

Contents of the config.ini file

Explorer uri you can get here https://github.com/oxarbitrage/bitshares-explorer-api

[DIRS]
output dir = path/to/output/directory/output # name output requried
log dir = path/to/log/directory/logs         # name logs required

[MIN_DAILY_VOLUME]
overall min daily volume = 10  #  Must be non float value
pair min daily volume = 5      #  Must be non float value

[LIMITS]
# Values of the options must be dicts. Values in dicts must have types int 
# or float. Values in dict 'volume limits' expressed in dollars.
volume limits = {"1.3.0": 15, "1.3.113": 15, "1.3.1570": 15, "1.3.121": 15}
min profit limits = {"1.3.0": 0.001, "1.3.113": 0.02, "1.3.1570": 2e-08, "1.3.121": 0.02}

[URI]
node uri = nodr_uri
wallet uri = ws://127.0.0.1:8093/ws      # example
explorer uri = explrer_uri

[ACCOUNT]
account name = account_name
wallet password = wallet_password

[OTHER]
data update time = 1      # Hours. Required int
time to reconnect = 350   # Reconnect to node or wallet. Secs. Required int
orders depth = 5          # Amount. Required int

When you will fill config - go to the next step.

Adding app to supervisor

sudo vi /etc/supervisor/conf.d/rin-bot.conf

[program:rin-bot]
command=/home/<user>/rin-bitshares-arbitry-bot/venv/bin/rin-bot
autostart=true
autorestart=true
stopsignal=KILL
numprocs=1
user=<user>

sudo supervisorctl reread

sudo supervisorctl update

sudo supervisorctl start rin-bot

Logging

Logs, output files and config are available by path /home/<user>/rin-bot

Cython supporting

If you want to compile modules by Cython - uncomment
lines in setup.py and change the extension of 
the desired files to .pyx. But Cython compiling not
tested so use it at your own risk.

Milestones:

  • Fix a bug associated with incorrect calculation of volumes.
  • Write own async cmd explorer REST API without web interface.
  • Improve bot by adding new features.
  • Write full async lib for Bitshares API.
