A simple tool to stack, create orders to try and buy dips, withdraw sats from exchanges. At the moment only the Kraken plugin is implemented.
sats-stacker is intented to be run through a scheduler like Systemd Timer or Crontab and is is provided as Docker Images and pre-compiled binaries.
Use this at your own risk and decide for yourself whether or not you want to run this tool - access to your exchange account , and so your funds, is required so you are expected to validate the Code before running it. This software is provided as it is.
You will need to get your Kraken API Key and Secret Key from the Api Settings page.
Required permissions are:
- Query Funds
- Modify Orders
- Withdraw Funds ( Only if you plan to automate the withdrawal )
Note sats-stacker, on Kraken exchange, can only withdraw to a pre-configured withdrawal address referenced by name. You will need to create it using the UI before you can automate withdrawals. This is to avoid allowing this tool to create new withdrawal addresses on kraken and potentially loose you funds.
sats-stacker support sending notifications for each stack or withdraw event so you always know how your stacking is going.
The infrastructure for notifications is pluggable but somewhat limited at the moment to STDOUT
and SIMPLEPUSH.IO
The simplest of notifications. Just redirect stdout
to whatever/wherever you like
Send notification using SIMPLEPUSH.IO
notification infrastructure with optional support for encrypting your message.

the stack
command will buy the specified amount of fiat in btc using a market value order
This is the default Dollar Cost Averaging
mode and will buy you some btc every time you run it.
OPTIONS:
--amount value Amount of fiat to exchange (default: 0) [$STACKER_STACK_AMOUNT]
--fiat value Fiat to exchange [$STACKER_STACK_FIAT]
--order-type value, --type value Order type (default: "limit") [$STACKER_STACK_ORDER_TYPE]
--help, -h show help (default: false)
the btd
command will place a number of orders at progressively more discounted prices and progressively higher amount of fiat, trying to catch a DIP in price.
this mode will first delete any previous btd order, will then place the new orders based on the budget it is allowed to spend.
The frequency at which you run this command will define the window of time in which you will try and catch a DIP.
The first order will be placed at a discount of dip-percentage
from the current ASK price for a given amount of fiat. Every successive order will apply a bigger discount, based on dip-increments
for an amount of fiat higher the previous one.
OPTIONS:
--budget value Budget to allocate for the DIPs, set to 0 to allocate all of the available budget (default: 0) [$STACKER_BTD_BUDGET]
--dip-percentage value Initial percentage of the firt dip, the other values will be calculated (default: 10) [$STACKER_BTD_DIP_PERCENTAGE]
--dip-increments value Increment of dip percentage for each order (default: 5) [$STACKER_BTD_DIP_INCREMENTS_PERCENTAGE]
--n-orders value Number of DIPS orders to place (default: 5) [$STACKER_BTD_DIP_N_ORDERS]
--high-price-gap-percentage value Gap between current price and high price to trigger modifier (default: 5) [$STACKER_BTD_HIGH_PRICE_GAP_PERCENTAGE]
--fiat value Fiat to exchange [$STACKER_BTD_FIAT]
--help, -h show help (default: false)
- Budget: 500
- Fiat: Eur
- Dip-Percentage: 5%
- Dip-Ingrements: 5%
- N of Orders: 4
- Current Ask Price: 10000EUR
Given this conditions the following orders would be placed:
- 1st Order: FIAT: 50EUR - PRICE: 10000 - ( 5% of 10000) = 9500 - Volume: 0.00526315789 BTC
- 2nd Order: FIAT: 100EUR - PRICE: 10000 - ( 10% of 10000) = 9000 - Volume: 0.01111111111 BTC
- 3rd Order: FIAT: 150EUR - PRICE: 10000 - ( 15% of 10000) = 8500 - Volume: 0.01764705882 BTC
- 4th Order: FIAT: 200EUR - PRICE: 10000 - ( 20% of 10000) = 8000 - Volume: 0.025 BTC
A modifier to the discount will be applied based on the gap between the current Ask Price and the Highest price in the last week. ( This is currently not configurable)
The bigger the Gap between the current Ask price and the highest price in the last week the bigger the modifier is up to 40% of the actualy dip-discount
specified.
This cannot be disabled right now but by using the --high-price-gap-percentage
flag you can trick sats-stacker to never initiate this modifier by setting it to 100 since it will only apply if the gap
between current Ask Price and Highest price in the last week is > than that value.
In order for the tool to try and catch the Dips you need to run the tool on a regular basis, the frequency at which you run it will determine the window of time in which you will try to catch a dip. At every run the old orders will be deleted and new ones, based on the current Ask Price, will be created
I run the tool every 2 hour with an initial dip value of 5% , so i try to catch any dip of 5% in 2 hours of time.
The right values are entirely up to you depending on how big and how fast of a dip you are trying to catch
OPTIONS:
--max-fee value Max fee in percentage, only withdraw if the relative fee does not exceed this limit (default: 0) [$STACKER_WITHDRAW_MAX_FEE]
--address value Address to withdraw to, the actual value will depend on the exchange selected [$STACKER_WITHDRAW_ADDRESS]
--help, -h show help (default: false)
sats-stacker support being configured either via Environment variables or cli arguments.
