Since the beginning of Sept I've been trophy pushing with Clashbot to farm for DE so I can pay for heros and research. Since then, I've had my heros constantly upgrading and often have to stop the bot because it's just throwing DE away! Note that I'm a TH9 with L6 barbs and archers! This might not work as well if you have crappier troops.
In the tag is a spreadsheet I've been using to track my progress. Many other posts claim huge loot, but only show 2 or 3 data points. Here's 19 days of logs!
The settings I used are in the hidden tag. Hope you enjoy!
I'm still using Clashbot 1.5; I haven't gotten around to trying 1.7 yet. If I weren't lazy, I wouldn't be using bots!
Explained: If you have a really bad hour and only get 1 snipe that whole hour, it'll cost you 450k gold just in nexts. On average, you'll make this up, and you can see from the spreadsheet above that I average a lot better than 1 snipe per hour. These are very conservative values just to ensure the bot keeps going even if all the snipes dry up for several hours.

- Max TH Distance from Edge is 47 pixels, so if a townhall is 48pixels away from the map edge, we don't attack. Why 47? I started with 55 pixels, but encountered too many trap bases (bases that have TH near the edge but surrounded by all of their traps and teslas. Since clashbot deploys so stupid, it would lose to these bases and lose trophies. It's ok if that happens from time to time, but if it happens too much it really starts to hurt our averages!
- Size of each troop wave and delay between wave: I kinda picked these at random the first day and haven't really played with them. They cause you to deploy really fast, but that's not a big deal. Townhalls that are only trapped by teslas can't defeat this fast deployment!
- Anti-trap wave: this drops a few troops early on to clear traps near the town hall. It's not perfect, but it helps
- Base Skip Delay: I run clashbot in a virtualmachine. If you run it directly on your computer, you can set this to 2 or 3 seconds and probably get better loot than me! If you get "Client and server out of sync" errors while searching, make this number bigger.
- Keep Trophies Below: Your barracks get credited for time spent clicking "Next". It takes about 25 minutes to build the army, so you don't really care if clashbot clicks next for anything less than 25 minutes. When it starts to click next for an hour, thats when you probably want to drop trophies. I've found that whenever I get into Champion league (3200 trophies), it starts to take 1 hr between snipes and I start to run out of gold from clicking next. By setting clashbot to drop trophies at 3200, I don't worry about running out of gold. Unfortunately, due to a bug in Clashbot 1.5, if clashbot is set to Trophy Push, it will get confused an hang at the "Attack Lost" screen. So before bed, it's wise to drop trophies to at least 3100 so it doesn't get stuck while you sleep. Getting stuck for 4 hours is still better than running out of gold.
- Whenever I see I'm getting near 3200 trophies, I pause the bot and manually drop to 3100 trophies or fewer.
