    • Conservative: Increases your position when the price moves against your overall view; reduces positions to capture profits when the price moves favorably.

    • Balanced: A balanced approach to increasing your directional position when prices move against you and taking profit when prices move favorably.

    • Growth: Steadily takes profits if your position becomes profitable; sets tighter stop loss conditions to quickly close positions if the market moves unfavorably.

  • Direction:

    • Bullish: The strategy bets on price increases.

    • Bearish: The strategy bets on price decreases.

Q: How do I deposit funds to an AutoTrader strategy?

Q: Where can I see my active strategies?

A: Users can click the portfolio entrance arrow to see their actively running strategies on the portfolio page.

Q: What do I do if I want to monitor strategies?

A: Users can click the Favorite button on their preferred strategy card, and then head to the portfolio page to check their watchlist of saved strategies.

Q: What is the maximum number of AutoTrader bots that I can run?

A: Only 5 AutoTrader strategies are allowed to run for the same market simultaneously. There are no limits on the number of strategies that can be run across all markets.

Q: Why is my realized P&L different from what was displayed when I initially stopped the strategy?

A: Sometimes, due to market fluctuations or slippage in position prices, the final P&L upon stopping the strategy may differ from the expected values set by the user when he/she places the final order. We recommend thoroughly reviewing the Risk Control feature description before setting your order up and implementing appropriate risk management for your strategy.
