About Polo Reader
Please note, This is an unofficial App, the Developer has no affiliation with Poloniex.
This app will read out the latest ask prices on the Poloniex exchange for various altcoins.
Coins read include, BTC, BBR,BCN,BLK,BTCD,DASH,ETC,LSK,LTC,MAID,NXT,REP,
STEEM,QORA,ZEC,ETH,FCT,XMR,XRP,BBR,PASC,NAUT,BELA,SYS.
4 Markets are incorporated, BTC, XMR,ETH, USDT.
If you select a coin not in the market, a warning will be issued to check currency pair.
To alter triggers, check Trig/Track and operate the slider, fine adjustments upward can be made by
pressing >>>.
Triggers may be set on a particular coin, with an option to read out all prices as they come in.
The app may be of use to traders using simple manual scalping, or to calculate +/- percentage points
above and below a current price to manually set buy and sell orders.
The trigger points are centered around a current Ask price.
These trigger points can be left as is, or adjusted at every read, or only when the
trigger points are reached or exceeded.
Polling takes place every 1 minute, 2,3,4,5...60 minutes.
Decimal places may be set.
There are also Enable, Disable or Quit options.
A later version might include all the coins on Poloniex, but I'll have to find some way of
updating which coins are listed on Poloniex, maybe a file stored locally
on your device which the user can edit with his / her favorite coins.
Bid Ask and Spread are displayed.
The user can select whether to read out All the polled results, or only read out the current price IF a trigger point is
reached.
Tested on EE Rook and Galaxy J3.
Very small phones can suffer with display corruption so I've included the ability to set the
number of decimal places displayed.
This is useful because when a coin is priced 0.001 BTC, you don't need the to know
what the price is to 8 decimal places.
Some coins though, eg Doge you do need 8 decimal places.
I estimate, that at the max polling rate of once per minute, the app should use around 10 Mb of data per month. Maybe someone could confirm this.
A future version might be made for other exchanges.
The App was created using MIT's AppInventor.
The App needs Wifi or Net access to get prices and uses an Icon so requests access to photos,
Let me know about any problems or improvements you might like to see to enhance this App..
