DCA and Grid bots now trade live on exchanges, inside hard risk limits

The DCA and Grid bots in the terminal can now place real orders on three major crypto exchanges, spot or USDT futures, through your own API key. Every account gets the same hard limits: five live bots, $5,000 per bot, and a pause after $500 of realised loss in a day.

From paper to live

Until now the DCA and Grid bots in the terminal's bot platform traded on the paper account only. They can now run live on three major crypto exchanges, on spot or USDT-margined futures. Orders are placed by our server through an API key you connect, so a bot keeps working when your browser is closed. Signal and Webhook bots stay on the paper account for now.

Limits you can't switch off

Every account trades inside the same limits, amounts in the quote currency:

at most five live bots at once, DCA deals and grids together;
at most $5,000 per bot — for DCA, the base order plus every safety order; for Grid, the investment amount;
after $500 of realised loss in a UTC day, all your live bots pause new entries.

Safety around the key

A key that allows withdrawals, lacks trading rights for the chosen market or is read-only is refused and never saved.
The wizard asks for exactly one key for the exchange and market you picked, and every live start shows a warning naming the exchange, the key, server-side execution and the limits.
If the exchange or our server rejects a start, the reason appears in the bot's row.
The emergency stop cancels the bots' orders and works even if your subscription has lapsed. An optional 'close positions' step closes all futures positions on each connected key — including ones you opened by hand — and the dialog says so before you confirm.

Live DCA and Grid bots are part of Pro, and free for every signed-in account while Premium is free until 1 January 2027. Start in the terminal — and run a bot on paper first.

Trading with real money carries a risk of loss. Bots execute the rules you set and do not guarantee profit; limits reduce but do not remove risk. Not investment advice.

Crypto Positioning: eight exchanges, the US spot premium, fund positioning and alerts that combine conditions

The terminal's derivatives panel is now called Crypto Positioning and reads open interest and funding from eight exchanges, liquidations from six. It adds the US spot premium, the futures positioning of large funds from the weekly COT report, real Hyperliquid liquidation levels on the chart — and alerts that combine open interest, funding, liquidations and price with AND or OR.

All your exchange accounts in one panel, and a journal that copies your real trades

Connect your exchange API keys under My exchanges and the new All accounts panel shows positions, orders and exposure across every key in one place. A journal copies your real trade history from the exchanges, measures each trade in R and exports to CSV. Testnet and demo accounts can already trade from the terminal's Exchange ticket.
