USE THE FEED TO LIMIT VALID SHORTS TO ONLY ABOVE THE FEED.

Its a free market and this would be a bad step. The whole, is it ok to do bad things for the greater good kind of thing, their has to be another way. Why not just use the feed and let the market decide the value of bitUSD no arb bot needed.USE THE FEED TO LIMIT VALID SHORTS TO ONLY ABOVE THE FEED. No 95-105% range and no arb bot is needed.Sometimes I don't know how you guys come up with this stuff and start wasting time on it before thinking it through. Sorry for being annoyed.

Quote from: GaltReport on August 28, 2014, 08:46:53 pmIs their a real-world equivalent of this bot? Not being that knowledgeable about exchanges and market, it might be more palatable if there is an existing exchange function in the real world performing the equivalent function that you could explain. To the lay it just sounds like price controls.The real world equivalent of this bot is what provides the ultimate peg for BitUSD to USD. I would gladly run such a bot myself, but these bots require capital and early on no one wants to take the risk. Coding something into the network that we expect people outside the network to do merely provides liquidity and enforces the peg. If you do it right the market maker in the network would eventually no longer be competitive with the market makers outside the network and thus its price targets would never get hit. In fact you could "pretend" such a market maker exists right now with a spread that is wider than the current BitUSD/USD peg. It hasn't hit so you don't even see its involvement. So all we are ultimately talking about is decreasing the spread of the current "imaginary" market maker.

I mean you include a bid... it doesn't get matched.. price goes up.. bid is now out of range.

It is either valid or not. If the transaction cannot be included => the user should retry.
