PoE Currency Flip Ratios

NOTICE

I have abandoned this script since the trade API is no longer publicly accessible. That means a script such as this don't work anymore. You'd have to register for a sort of developer account with GGG, and I don't want to risk anything since this script might be seen as a cheat. Thanks to all of you who tried it out. Will probably remove this repo in the coming weeks.

A node script that helps finding good sell/buy ratios for currency flipping via the PoE JSON REST API.

Prerequisites

• Node JS

Install: yarn install or npm install
Run: node ./poe-currency-pricings.js ...args

Arguments

Argument	Value	Explanation	Default
league	string	The league to get currency ratios for	Ultimatum
currencies	comma separated list of strings	A comma separated list of currencies.
profit	number	Desired profit margin (optional)	10
startrow	number	The row we will start looking for prices on (optional)	0
numrows	number	Number of rows from the startrow we will examine (optional)	40
offline	boolean	Use local cache instead of live results (optional)
debug	boolean	Verbose logging (optional)

Example

node ./poe-currency-pricings.js --currencies=vaal,chrome,fusing,chisel --profit=10 --startrow=10 --numrows=15

Supported currencies

Every currency listed here is supported. Use the short variation of the currency name (chrome, gcp etc.).

Result example

vaal > chaos
60/100 (3/5)
chaos > vaal
38/20 (19/10)
Profit: 14% (~row 20)

chrome > chaos
14/97 (14/97)
chaos > chrome
235/30 (47/6)
Profit: 13% (~row 24)

"vaal > chaos 60/100" means that you should price a vaal in your premium stash tab "60/100" of a chaos. "chaos > vaal 38/20" mean you should price a chaos for "38/20" of a vaal. All trades will give a profit margin for that trade, as well as an expected position in the listings. The numbers in parentheses is the maximum common divisible for that ratio, 3/5 is the same ratio as 60/100, but you will sell 5 vaal for 3 chaos, instead of 100 vaal for 60 chaos, which can result in more trade requests, but make less money per trade.

The result is also saved to a textfile named result.txt, where the text can be more easily copied from.

Caveats

• Offline mode can only calculate ratios for currencies that you've fetched prices for in online mode before, and will be based on what the prices looked like at that moment in time.

Thanks, let me know how it works for you!
