OOC question regarding console scripts: unless it's specified by the code that the function will stop at a certain point, most functions like yours will loop forever. Is there a way to stop them, once pasted in the console, apart from refreshing the page? Is there no way to "stop" the loop of that specific function that was started? I googled around a bit but I think I'm out of my depth here.

Yes, but you have to code for it. I guess you mean you want to "kill the process" in some way, and that's not possible as far as I know.
One easy way is to add a flag
let working = true;
(function work() {
console.log("running");
if (working) requestAnimationFrame(work);
else console.log("stopped");
})();
Programmatically, you have the function cancelAnimationFrame that you give as parameter what requestAnimationFrame returns. The same as setTimeout and clearTimeout

also, why not set the buy to a "below 2000" and sell at "above 7000". ?

are you not "mining" at this point?
Something that I didn't expect is that is not that easy as "buy low" and "sell high". I had to cap the buying price for the bot to make money at all, else the "bought at" will get so high, that you won't have a chance to buy much.
