Trade Lifecycle
Every autonomous trade follows a five-stage process from signal detection to exit.
Stage 1: Opportunity Detection
The AI continuously scans for actionable signals:
- Technical breakouts — Price breaking key support/resistance with volume
- On-chain accumulation — Whale wallets building positions
- Sentiment shifts — News events or social media trends changing direction
- Arbitrage — Price discrepancies across BSC DEXes
Stage 2: Position Sizing
Based on your risk configuration:
- Portfolio percentage — Never exceed max allocation per trade
- Kelly criterion — Mathematically optimal bet sizing based on win probability
- Volatility adjustment — Smaller positions in higher-volatility tokens
Stage 3: Entry Execution
- Optimal timing — Avoid high-slippage periods
- Split orders — Break large orders to minimize market impact
- MEV-aware routing — Protect against sandwich attacks on BSC
Stage 4: Position Management
Once in a trade, the AI actively manages:
- Trailing stops — Dynamically adjust stop-loss as price moves favorably
- Partial profit-taking — Lock in gains at predetermined levels
- Re-evaluation — Update thesis based on new data, adjust or exit
Stage 5: Exit Execution
Target reached
Price hits take-profit level
Stop-loss triggered
Price hits loss limit
Thesis invalidated
New data contradicts the original trade rationale
Time-based
Position held beyond maximum intended duration
