Accidentally only included the launcher on previous commit (oops)

1) Added several lines of code related to bugs with inconsistent formatting / display / logging of information, and made the verbose "debug" logging less... just less (much of information is now in the default level without needing to enabled debug logging)... Also changed the grammar on various things to prevent linewrapping from too much words, or simple cleanups to make 8 decimal places be usd correctly (in addition to fixing a few rounding errors) 2) Hardcoded a trading fee for cex.io platform, as it now has one (this value doesn't seem to have a way to fetch via API, so I guess it can be configurable in the future. The config parser needs an audit though, so the workaround was to simply hardcode a non-zero fee) 3) Removed the "sell when price is high" logic. This fork of gekkobot is for reinvestment of the income from cloud mining. Period. Full stop.
