OpenRiot v7.9.51 — The Machine Looks Further Back

“Six months of candles is a memory. A year is a map. The machine was reading the crash and calling it the range. We gave it a longer memory. Now it knows where the coins were standing before the floor fell out.” — The OpenRiot Crew, after the sell limits stopped lying about the upside, v7.9.51


Release Overview

The crypto tracker’s OHLC window moves from 180 days to 365 days. Sell limits now reflect the full yearly range, not the crash-bound six-month window. --crypto-history prints 24h/48h/72h/7d price changes. The totals row is realigned under the Entry and Gains columns. The polybar countdown runs both the full table and the history view.

Total changes: 365-day OHLC, sell limit cap 2.50×, totals alignment, crypto-history command, polybar countdown update.


🔭 A Year of Candles, Not Six Months

The old range was 180 days. For coins that peaked in the first half of the window and spent the second half falling, the sell limit was an artifact of the crash, not a map of the real upside.

        Old (180d)          New (365d)
XMR     $437                $670
SOL     $115                $191
BTC     $84.8k              $118.5k
LTC     $66                 $119
ZEC     $637                $664

The 1.50× cap on sell targets — designed for the narrower 180-day window — is raised to 2.50×. The 1.10× floor stays. The machine now prices compression bets at their actual recovery ceiling, not the top of the crash.

The OHLC cache is fetched once. The file is larger. The math is the same. The map is more honest.

Reads the existing OHLC cache. No API call. No new files. Just the daily closes you already have, printed as a time series. The countdown in crypto-countdown now runs both the full table and the history view every cycle.

Prices are formatted with commas. Columns are aligned. The Turing Police would print a 24h change as a percentage of a percentage of a forecast. We print the actual closes.


📊 Totals Row Realigned

The portfolio total moves under the Entry column. The gain total moves under the Gains column. The + sign on positive gains is removed. If you are up, the number speaks for itself. If you are down, the minus sign stays.

🗣️ Final Words

“The machine was looking at six months and calling it the world. The floor fell out of half the coins in that window. The sell limits were a map of the crater, not the summit. We gave it a year. The map got taller. The machine got quieter. The Turing Police would call it ‘extended technical analysis.’ We call it reading the candles we already had.” — The OpenRiot Crew, v7.9.51
