Objective

The dabo-bot is intended to help make and execute timely buy and sell decisions automatically in the fast-paced crypto environment.

These decisions are made using one or more self-definable strategies. Various market data are available as a basis for decision-making, such as price trends, RSI, MACD and EMA indicators of various time intervals, Fear and Greed Index, S&P500 data,...

Naming

The name Dabo comes from the Star Trek universe. Dabo was a roulette-style game of chance developed by the Ferengi. More information here: https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Dabo I thought this fits quite well to the cryptotrading world and that's why I chose this name ;-)

Structure

The Bot is splitted in the following parts/containers:

  • dabo-bot: Basic Bot with buy and sell decisions based on self-definable strategies
  • dabo-symbols_ticker: Ticker for current symbols and prices
  • dabo-ohlcv-candles: Continuously collect OHLCV data
  • dabo-indicators: Continuously calculate indicators and other data
  • dabo-orders: Continuously collect current orders placed by bot and others
  • dabo-transaction-history: Continuously creates overview of historic trades
  • dabo-webpage: Continuously creates webpage overview (readonly)
  • dabo-web: Webserver for webpage overview

Each part runs parallel to the others in its own docker-container.

Why bash?

Yes, bash is not a language in which you write something like this in a normal way.

To be honest, I'm more of a Linux admin than a programmer, so I do a lot of my work using bash. Simply it's the language I'm most familiar with.

Originally this project was supposed to be a simple script to monitor prices of equities and ETFs and set alarms at certain marks. Over time it has expanded a lot and a complete rewrite in another language would have meant a lot of additional work. So it has stayed that way until now.

Finally, it's a hobby project and I have to see how and when I can find time for it, because there also has to be time for family, friends, work and other hobbies. If there is someone who would like to rewrite this bot in e.g. Python, I would be happy to support them as best I can with this task. Just let me know.

How to install (basic Linux knowledge required!)

Should run on every system with docker.

1: Operating System

Tested and running with Debian 12 (Bookworm). https://www.debian.org/download https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/

2: Way 1: Istall via anssible playbooks

On a fresh Debian 12 system you can run my Ansible Playbooks to use the same environment the bot is developed and running. Please have a look what exactly the playbooks are doing if you are unsure.

If the web interface (or matrix/turn) should be accessible via the internet, the server must be accessible on port 80/tcp (acme/letsencrypt) and 443/tcp. For private/home internet access, this may require port forwarding on your router and registration with a dyndns (DDNS) service. The DDNS service should allow subdomains.

When using my playbooks and the services should be available to the internet, the hostname must correspond to the ddns name. Here is an example for the dynu-DDNS service:

  • DDNS name: myhost.mywire.com
  • dabo-bot-name: dabo.myhost.mywire.com
  • matrix-name: matrix.myhost.mywire.com

You also can use IPv6 if your ISP and router supports this and if you have multiple servers/services on Ports (80/443) but only one IPv4 address to the internet.

2.1 Download basic install script

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/egabosh/linux-setups/refs/heads/main/debian/install.sh -O install.sh

2.2 define Playbooks

for example:

PLAYBOOKS="debian/basics/basics.yml
 debian/firewall/firewall.yml
 debian/runchecks/runchecks.yml
 debian/backup/backup.yml
 debian/autoupdate/autoupdate.yml
 debian/docker/docker.yml 
 debian/traefik.server/traefik.yml 
 https://github.com/egabosh/dabo/raw/refs/heads/main/dabo-ansible.yml"
export PLAYBOOKS

2.3 Install ansible and run Playbooks

If you run this as user and not as root, the script will install sudo and enable the user to execute commands as root via sudo. To do this, the root password is requested (several times).

bash install.sh

3. Manual installation without ansible playbooks

Not necessary if you use the dabo Playbook

Install docker

See: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/debian/

You can also use other containerizations like podman or kubernetes. But here I stick with docker

Download

Not necessary if you use the dabo Playbook

git clone https://github.com/egabosh/dabo.git
cd dabo

Build container

Not necessary if you use the dabo Playbook

docker -l warn compose --ansi never build --progress=plain --pull --no-cache --force-rm

3. Make Webinterface available

Not necessary if you use the dabo Playbook with traefik and letsencrypt

Edit docker-compose.yml or create docker-compose.override.yml to fit yout needs e.g. domain and network settings or basic auth, e.g. for traefik and letsencrypt:

echo '
services:

  dabo-bot:
    networks:
      - YOURNETWORK

  dabo-web:
    labels:
      - traefik.enable=true
      # DOMAIN
      - traefik.http.routers.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.rule=Host(`YOURDOMAIN`)
      - traefik.http.routers.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.entrypoints=https
      - traefik.http.routers.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.tls=true
      # Proxy to service-port
      - traefik.http.services.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.loadbalancer.server.port=80
      - traefik.http.routers.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.service=dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME
      # cert via letsencrypt
      - traefik.http.routers.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt
      # activate secHeaders@file & basic auth
      - traefik.http.routers.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME.middlewares=secHeaders@file,dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME-basicauth
      # Generate crypted password string with: echo $(htpasswd -nB YOURUSER) | sed -e s/\\$/\\$\\$/g
      - traefik.http.middlewares.dabo-YOURINSTANCENAME-basicauth.basicauth.users=YOURUSER:YOUR-GENERATED-CRYPTED-PASSWORD-STRING
      # Traefik network
      - traefik.docker.network=traefik
    networks:
      - traefik

networks:
  YOURNETWORK:
    driver: bridge
    driver_opts:
      com.docker.network.bridge.name: YOURBRIDGE
  traefik:
    external: true

' >docker-compose.override.yml

If you use the ansible Playbook but don't want to use traefik/letsencrypt or availability over the internet you can add the following to docker-compose.override.yml below "# END ANSIBLE MANAGED BLOCK". ATTENTION: ACCESS IS UNENCRYPTED!!!

    ports:
      - 8080:80

You have to restart the container(s) to apply changes. See operational commands.

4. Optional: Matrix connection

Optional: If you use matrix/matrix-commander (https://github.com/egabosh/linux-setups/tree/main/debian/matrix.server) and want do receive Matrix-Messages from the bot you can create an SSH-Key to allow sending Matrix-Messages e.g.: Automatically done by playbooks.

mkdir -p home/.ssh
ssh-keygen -f home/.ssh/id_ed25519 -N "" -t ed25519
chmod 700 home/.ssh
cat home/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

and add Key on your matrix-Server to the authorized_keys of the matrix-User

5. Add Exchange

Create Secrets file for your API Key(s)

Examples:

# for Phemex 
echo 'local API_SECRET="YOUR_API_SECRET_FROM_PHEMEX"
local API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY_FROM_PHEMEX"' >dabo/.phemex-secrets
chmod 400 dabo/.phemex-secrets

# for Binance
echo 'local API_SECRET="YOUR_API_SECRET_FROM_BINANCE"
local API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY_FROM_BINANCE"' >dabo/.binance-secrets
chmod 400 dabo/.binance-secrets

Create Config Especially set URL, STOCK_EXCHANGE, FEE, CURRENCY,... to fit your needs. If you want to use the a testnet of an exchnage if available use TESTNET=true which is the default

vim dabo-bot.conf

Defaults in dabo/dabo-bot.conf

How to use

Operational commands

Run/Restart:

docker compose down   # if an old instance is running 
docker compose up -d 

List and state of containers:

docker compose ps

Logs/Output:

docker compose logs -f

Logs/Oputput of a specific container for example dabo-bot:

docker compose logs -f dabo-bot

Update

Not necessary if you use the playbooks

# Optional: Remove local data
git reset --hard HEAD^   # Remove local commits
git clean -fd            # Remove local uncommited files

# Update and restart
git pull https://github.com/egabosh/dabo.git main -f
docker compose down 
docker compose up -d

Strategies

IMPORTANT!!!

THE EXAMPLE STRATEGIES MAY NOT FIT YOUR NEEDS OR WORK PROPERLY. SO YOU CAN LOOSE ALL YOUR MONEY!!! USE ON YOUR OWN RISK!!!

TEST YOUR OWN STRATEGY COMPREHENSIVELY AND OVER A LOGNER PERIOD OF TIME BEST RISK-FREE IN A TESTNET!!! USE ON YOUR OWN RISK!!!

Strategies are needed for the bot to trade.

Strategies are located in die stretegies subdir.

You can put your own code into the strategies it will be sourced by the bot. If you want, you can also use other programming languages or binary code as a strategy and simply start it using your own strategy.

Example strategies

There are examples for strategy files (deactivated by "return 0" in the beginning):

cat strategies/example.strategy.sh
cat strategies/example_manage_positions.strategy.sh

"example.strategy.sh" creates a score by defined tests and opens a long or short order with stoploss and takeprofit if the score has a defined value.

"example_manage_positions.strategy.sh" watches open positions and switches the stoploss into profit if position is in profit to secure it.

You can use them and change them to fit your needs. To avoid resets on updates copy them to your own strategies for example:

cp -p strategies/example.strategy.sh                   strategies/my-own-trading.strategy.sh
cp -p strategies/example_manage_positions.strategy.sh  strategies/my-own-position.strategy.sh

Own strategies

Aditional strategies can be created with naming convention *.strategy.sh

strategies/my-new.strategy.sh
strategies/yet-another-new.strategy.sh

Strategy files should have specific rights - must be readable by the bot:

chown -R 10000:10000 strategies
chmod -R 640 strategies

Variables during runtime of the strategies

You can use available variables/arrays during runtime to read (and set) values. This arrays are available to runtime in the strategies

Large associative arrays v and vr (reverse)

${v[SYMBOL_TIMEFRAME_ITEM_NUMBER]}

  • SYMBOL: Crypto-Symbol for examle ETHUSDT or ECONOMY_DXY ECONOMY_DOWJONES ECONOMY_SP500 ECONOMY_NASDAQ ECONOMY_MSCIEAFE ECONOMY_10YRTREASURY ECONOMY_OIL ECONOMY_GOLD ECONOMY_MSCIWORLD ECONOMY_OILGAS ECONOMY_KRE ECONOMY_EUR-USD

  • NUMBER: 0=latest; 1=second latest

Examples:

${v[ECONOMY_NASDAQ_1h_close_0]}
