How CoinOptimus Works

CoinOptimus operates using Node.js and runs continuously on your server/VPS. Initially, you set up a config specifying the exchange and the pair you want to trade. CoinOptimus uses API keys obtained from your crypto exchange and your crypto balances on your exchange account. To manage the bot, you send commands via ADAMANT Messenger, and it responds accordingly, running your trading strategy and placing orders.

See the setup instructions.

CoinOptimus primarily employs the Optimal Ladder/Grid Trade Strategy. In this approach, the bot places multiple orders to buy and sell tokens, with prices starting from the spread.

You can see orders placed and maintained with the Ladder strategy:

Once the closest order to the spread gets filled, the bot adds a similar order on the opposite side, following the principle “buy lower than you sell, and sell higher than you buy”. This strategy is especially effective in a volatile market. See trades history example:

Disclaimer

CoinOptimus is NOT a sure-fire profit machine. Use it AT YOUR OWN RISK.
