Original Draft

Title: Rise of the bots

Have you ever wondered what traders at large firms do all day? What are the basic strategies they run? How do they enter and exit positions?

Many years ago, the answers to these questions were closely guarded secrets; only the largest and most sophisticated firms had the resources to build and deploy complex trading strategies. But things have changed: we have seen the democratization of trading software, and with it, the rise of sophisticated automated trading bots that are available to individual users.

We broadly define trading bots as a piece of software that enables end-users to place and execute trades algorithmically according to a defined strategy. Trading bots are exciting because they bring many of the basic tools of a professional trader to the masses, and they are already a core part of the cryptocurrency trading ecosystem.

Trading bots generally offer three primary benefits:

●  Connectivity: Trading bot providers have done the hard work of building API connections to many trading venues around the world. End-users simply input their exchange API keys into the trading software and can trade algorithmically.

●  Automated order and execution management (OEMS): The trading bot software will automatically place and execute orders on behalf of the end-user, according to a preset strategy. The trading bot software will generally track the performance of the strategy and helps end-users manage their positions across exchanges.

●      Trading strategies: Trading bots will come with one or more trading strategies that the end-user can configure. These strategies can range in complexity from something discrete like automating a trailing sell, up to something more complex and ongoing like mean reversal and trend following strategies that control all aspects of entering and closing positions.

Founded in 2016, Gunbot is one of the oldest and most trusted trading bots and serves more than 14,000 traders worldwide. We are proud to announce that Gunbot has integrated Kraken Futures into its trading platform.

Gunbot runs entirely client-side and is one of the more sophisticated trading bot platforms in the market today. Gunbot offers many pre-built trading strategies such as mean reversion and trend following, using 15 basic methods of order execution such as trailing stop/loss and purchasing an asset at a percentage from the Bollinger band.

Each Gunbot strategy can use 150+ configurable parameters, allowing for very personalized trading styles. These strategies and order execution types can be freely combined to build custom trading strategies and deployed across one or more cryptocurrency exchanges around the world.

Trading bots democratize access to sophisticated trading tools, and we believe they will be a cornerstone of cryptocurrency’s evolution over the coming years. We are proud to partner with Gunbot, and we are committed to supporting trading bot software vendors worldwide.
