I've made a lot of improvements to my Monero miner and trading bot. First, I switched the network from the mini network to the nano network. On the mini network, a lot of my shares were falling out of the PPLNS window, so I wasn't getting as much Monero as I could have. Now that I've switched to the nano network a way larger percentage of my shares are being paid out. However, blocks are found less frequently on the Nano network and pay less. I'm still making more profits than if I was on the mini network, though. I've also improved the strategy the bot uses. I've trained a neural network to try to predict how the price will change. Of course, it's not perfect, but it is pretty effective. It gets the trend right about 80% of the time, and it helps the bot make better decisions. Right now I'm at a slight loss, but I will keep it running and see if I can get some profit. Next, I might try making a more sophisticated bot that can operate on a faster timeframe.
