Trade Currency Scraping Script (PHP & MySQL)

I wrote a Roblox TC scraper awhile back and recently shared it with someone.

It’s written in PHP and uses MySQL for data storage. I had used a cronjob to run it every few seconds.

Dunno if it still works, but thought someone might find it useful.

What does it do?

Is this a Trade Currency bot?

It’s not a TC bot - it’s a TC scraper.

Every 5 seconds it records the TC rates (the exchange rate), and even other stuff.

From this you can make really neat graphs.

Theoretically from this data you might learn better how to use the TC, but directly this does nothing.

It could be used for other stuff, however.

Use PDO for this, not MySQL, smaller scale apps “work better” with PDO and it makes it easier to move to another server for example.

I would have. I wrote this a long time ago before it was commonplace I believe. Stuff I do now is with PDO.
