This strategy is one of several included in your trading algorithm suite, which includes:
Below describes the main strategy - Aroon Oscillator, designed for market makers, funds and professional traders. It uses the Aroon Oscillator indicator to determine trend strength and automatically adapts spreads, volumes and TP levels to market conditions.
Important:
' ', the value must be enclosed in quotes.Starts the strategy. After activation, the bot will begin placing orders with current parameters.
After the /start command, the algorithm needs 2-5 minutes for full initialization:
This is normal behavior - orders will appear automatically after calculations complete. Do not restart or relaunch the strategy during this period.
Stops the strategy. All active orders are canceled, positions are preserved.
Ends the current session where the algorithm is running. Used before restarting or deleting the database.
Restarts the process after the /exit command. Used to update the algorithm state and restart after database deletion.
Deletes the algorithm database file. Used when you need to start work from a "clean slate".
Changes the value of the first strategy setting (Config1). Used for fine-tuning the algorithm logic.
⚠️ If the example has quotes ' ', enter exactly like that. If there are no quotes - you can enter without them.
Shows current parameters of the first strategy (Config1).
Shows parameters of the second strategy (Config2) - for example, arbitrage or market making for another pair. You can trade simultaneously on two trading pairs, using /showconfig1 for the first and /showconfig2 for the second.
Your bot supports parallel operation of two strategies. For example:
/setconfig1 trading_pair BTC-USDT - first strategy (Config1)/setconfig2 trading_pair ETH-USDT - second strategy (Config2)Both will work simultaneously, independently of each other. Settings for each can be viewed and changed separately.
Below are parameters available for modification via the /setconfig1 command. Each is accompanied by a brief and clear explanation.
| Parameter | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
connector_name |
Exchange name (e.g. binance, kucoin) |
/setconfig1 connector_name binance |
trading_pair |
Trading pair the strategy works with. Format: BASE-QUOTE |
/setconfig1 trading_pair BTC-USDT |
candles_interval |
Candle interval used for analysis (1m, 5m, 1h) |
/setconfig1 candles_interval 1m |
total_amount_quote |
Total strategy capital in quote currency (in USDT) | /setconfig1 total_amount_quote '1000' |
order_amount |
Size of one limit order in USDT. At start, this amount must be in USDT or base currency, otherwise orders won't be placed | /setconfig1 order_amount '25' |
minimum_spread |
Minimum spread between buy and sell orders (in fractions). 0.01 = 1% |
/setconfig1 minimum_spread '0.005' |
maximum_spread |
Maximum spread at which strategy can place orders | /setconfig1 maximum_spread '0.008' |
aroon_osc_strength_factor |
Strength of Aroon indicator influence on spread changes. Higher value = stronger reaction to trend | /setconfig1 aroon_osc_strength_factor '0.5' |
period_length |
Number of candles used for Aroon Oscillator calculation | /setconfig1 period_length 25 |
minimum_periods |
Minimum number of candles for correct indicator calculation | /setconfig1 minimum_periods -1 (starts calculation without waiting for candle count) |
order_levels |
Number of order levels in grid. 1 - one order per side, 3 - three levels per side | /setconfig1 order_levels 3 |
order_level_amount |
Fixed volume (in base currency) per order level. If 0, calculated automatically |
/setconfig1 order_level_amount '0.1' |
order_level_spread |
Additional distance between order levels (in price fractions) | /setconfig1 order_level_spread '0.01' |
price_ceiling |
Upper price boundary. If market is above this value - buying is suspended | /setconfig1 price_ceiling '1.25' |
price_floor |
Lower price boundary. If market is below - selling is suspended | /setconfig1 price_floor '0.75' |
recreate_order_interval |
Minimum time (in seconds) between order recreation | /setconfig1 recreate_order_interval 0.01 |
order_lifetime |
Limit order lifetime (in seconds). After expiration - order is canceled and recreated | /setconfig1 order_lifetime 10.0 |
take_profit_long |
Profit target (in fractions, 0.01 = 1%) for closing long positions | /setconfig1 take_profit_long '0.01' |
take_profit_short |
Profit target for short positions | /setconfig1 take_profit_short '0.015' |
take_profit_order_lifetime |
Take-Profit order lifetime (in seconds) | /setconfig1 take_profit_order_lifetime 1800.0 |
take_profit_respect_limits |
If true, TP is not placed beyond price_floor and price_ceiling |
/setconfig1 take_profit_respect_limits true |
database_path |
Path to database (SQLite) where trades and positions are saved | /setconfig1 database_path /var/data/trades.sqlite |
After changing parameters, it's recommended to execute:
to apply new settings. The strategy doesn't close positions when stopped - only cancels active orders.
Aroon Oscillator strategy (this documentation)/setconfig2, /showconfig2Commands require time to execute. Always pause between clicks - from 10 seconds to several minutes, depending on the current task and data volume. Don't run commands consecutively until the previous operation completes. If the bot is performing a long operation (like closing orders or deleting database), wait for confirmation before entering the next command.
Sometimes manual intervention in algorithm operation is necessary to close part of positions through the exchange website. In this case, it's important to synchronize the algorithm state with actual trades. Procedure: /stop → /exit → /del → /restart
After completing these steps, the algorithm will create a new database and start work from scratch.
⚠️ If the algorithm doesn't start after database deletion, repeat the command sequence:
/stop → /exit → /restart
Database deletion completely clears trade history and positions. Use this procedure only when manually intervening in operation.
📈 Summary:
The bot allows launching multiple trading strategies, each with its own set of settings. Commands /showconfig1 and /showconfig2 allow controlling parameters of both strategies, and /start and /stop manage their activity.
