Nefertiti™ in a Raspberry Pi.

Nefertiti is a command-line trading bot that follows a simple but proven strategy. If you don’t know what Nefertiti is or does, please refer to Introducing Nefertiti™, a simple crypto trading bot.

Disclaimer: investing in crypto is high risk. Even though this bot follows a relatively safe strategy, you should never feed it money you cannot afford to lose. Use at your own risk.

I have bought a brand new raspberry, what now?

You would need a microSD card to install the operative system in it. You have a lot of options. The standard one is Raspbian but I recommend you DietPi, a Debian-based operating like Raspbian, but slimmer and faster. Here you have some instructions to install it.

Installing Nefertiti™

Once you have your Raspberry Pi ready to play with you can download the latest Nefertiti™ binary for your platform. In your case, despite of having a “Debian ARM”, I recommend you download the “Linux ARM” version. This will download a .tar.gz file with the runable cryptotrader inside. All you need to do is copy the file cryptotrader in the root of the Raspberry Pi using scp command.

Example of using Nefertiti™

Here, you can see a script to run cryptotrader much simpler:

Installing PM2

I personally like running the bot with PM2. It allows you to run multiple instances. Here is an example of running 4 instances in PM2 and show the dashboard to see them all running:

Troubleshoot

• How to know the IP address to run scp command:
  Once run the raspberry, it appears on the top: IP eth0 or IP wlan0 followed by the IP (something like 196.168.X.X). To run scp just copy that IP and run scp ./cryptotrader root@192.168.X.X:~/
  It will ask for the password and, if you did not change it, by default isdietpi
• Dietpi comes with a lightweight SSH server called Dropbear. In order to run scp you need to have OpenSSH. This can be changed running dietpi-software -> SSH Server and selecting OpenSSH
• A message “Timestamp for this request is outside of the recvWindow.” doesn’t allow you to buy or sell:
  The Raspberry Pi 3 has NTP disabled by default.
  When you run timedatectl status says NTP synchronized: no
  All you need to do is sudo timedatectl set-ntp true.
  When you run againtimedatectl status says NTP synchronized: yes
  If the Raspberry had a Time Sync Mode configured by default, this is going to make that you cannot go into the dietpi-software.
  To fix that, go todietpi-config -> Advanced options and select Time Sync Mode: Custom
  Check this for fixing a conflict issue withntpd and systemd-timesyncd in case you still have issues.
