How the bot works. Without the jargon.

The short version

01

The bot trades the day's edges

Every day it maps a price corridor from yesterday's close and ATR(14). Entries happen at the edges — where price statistically tends to turn back.

02

Profit is ridden with a trailing stop

Once a position reaches your take-profit level, that result is locked in as a floor and the stop follows price. The move continues — you take more.

03

Drawdowns are hedged, not stopped out

There is no stop-loss. If price goes against the position, the bot opens an offsetting trade that freezes the loss until the reversal. Keep a margin buffer for it.

Mechanics

How a trade happens

At 00:00 UTC the bot takes yesterday's daily close and the 14-day ATR — the average distance price travels in a day. From these it builds six levels:

Sell levels
+50% / +75% / +100% ATR
Buy levels
−50% / −75% / −100% ATR

Price touches a sell level → the bot opens a short. Touches a buy level → a long. The deposit is split 50/25/25 across the three levels, so if the move continues, the average entry improves.

Each level lives its own life: it closes on its own trailing stop and, once price returns to that level, opens again. There is no daily limit on cycles.

With trailing enabled, long and short can run at the same time — each managed independently. With trailing off, only one direction is open at a time.
Protection

Why hedging instead of a stop-loss

A stop-loss turns a temporary drawdown into a permanent loss. This strategy expects price to return to the middle of the corridor, so instead of cutting the position we freeze it.

01

Drawdown reaches −15%

Measured against the money committed to the position. The bot arms a hedge but does not open it yet.

02

The move is confirmed

Only if price travels another 1.5×ATR(15m) against the position does the hedge actually open — this filters out false spikes.

03

The loss is frozen

The hedge matches the position size, so further movement no longer deepens the loss. A server-side stop protects the hedge itself from the moment it opens.

04

Reversal → hedge closes at breakeven

When price turns back, the hedge exits around breakeven and the main position keeps working toward profit.

Hedging is not a magic shield: the position can stay open for a long time and the funds remain locked. The bot never closes your position at a loss on its own — that decision is always yours.
Settings

Your four parameters

01

Deposit — $300 recommended

How much of your own money goes into one direction. Split 50/25/25 across the three levels. Presets are $100–$500 or any custom amount from $50.

02

Leverage — 10× recommended, 25× hard cap

Higher leverage means liquidation sits closer. We cap it at 25× on purpose: excessive leverage is the number one reason accounts die.

03

Take-profit — 5% recommended

Percent of the money in the position. With trailing on, this is the floor: the minimum you lock in once it is reached.

04

Trailing — on, 2% distance

After the floor is reached the stop follows the peak at this distance. Wider distance rides bigger moves but gives back more on the reversal.

Start with the recommended set. Everything is changeable later — the bot restarts with new parameters and keeps open positions.
Money

How much to keep on the account

The hedge needs free margin. If there is not enough, the bot skips the entry or the hedge and tells you. Rough guidance:

Trailing OFF
~2.2 × deposit
Trailing ON
~4.5 × deposit

Example: a $300 deposit with trailing on → keep roughly $1,350 free. All figures are approximate — actual demand depends on entry price, volatility and fees.

With trailing on, long and short can be open at once — each may need its own hedge. That is why the buffer is roughly double.
Setup

Getting started · 4 steps

01

Open the bot in Telegram

Press Start and take the 10-day free trial — full functionality, no card.

02

Create Bybit API keys

Bybit → API → Create New Key → System-generated. Permission: Contract – Trade. Do NOT enable Withdraw. Prefer a key with no expiry date.

03

Paste the keys into the bot

The bot verifies them, refuses any key with withdrawal rights, stores them encrypted and deletes your message from the chat.

04

Check settings and press Start

Recommended parameters are already in place. The bot shows how much margin to keep and whether your balance is enough.

Control

Your money stays yours

Funds never leave your Bybit account. The bot connects through API keys that can trade but cannot withdraw — this is enforced by Bybit itself, and we additionally reject any key that has withdrawal permission.

You can stop the bot at any moment. Stopping does not close open positions — they stay on your account and you decide what to do with them.

Quick answers

FAQ

What can I actually expect?

We publish live results from the founder's account: number of trades, share of profitable ones and the average result per trade as a percent of the money committed. Past results do not guarantee future ones, and losing periods happen.

Can I lose money?

Yes. Leveraged trading always carries that risk. A strong one-directional move can hold a position in drawdown for a long time, and a hedge costs fees. Only use money you can afford to lose.

What happens when the subscription ends?

The bot stops opening new trades and notifies you. Open positions stay on your account — you manage them yourself or renew the subscription.

Which pair does it trade?

BTC/USDT perpetual futures on Bybit.
