How to Use Aerius Alpha

What it does: Picks which coin the bot trades. Only USDT-quoted pairs are supported (e.g. BTCUSDT = Bitcoin, ETHUSDT = Ethereum). The current live price shows under the dropdown so you know what you're working with.

Tip: Stick to coins you know and that have high trading volume. Browse the Coin Tracker to compare.

What it does: The maximum total this bot can spend. Once the cumulative cost of all open orders hits this cap, the bot stops opening new ones.

Example: Set $500 and the bot will never have more than $500 invested across all open orders combined.

What it does: The starting size of each buy in USDT. Subsequent orders may grow if you set an Order Size Growth multiplier (see Entry Strategy below).

Example: $50 per order + $500 budget = up to 10 buy orders at base size before your budget runs out.

What it does: How many positions the bot can hold open at the same time. Once this limit is reached, the bot waits for one to close (sell) before opening another.

Example: Set to 10 and even if you have budget left, the bot won't hold more than 10 open positions. Keeps your risk in check.

What it does: The price at which the bot's very first buy is placed.

"Market price" toggle: ON (default) means the bot grabs the live price the moment you start it. Turn it OFF to type a custom target instead, the bot will then sit and wait until the coin actually hits that price before doing anything.

When to use custom: If you think BTC will drop to $55,000 and want the bot to start buying there, type 55000 and switch the toggle off.

What it does: A safety floor that applies to both Up and Down. Price must move at least this percent away from every currently-open position before a new order can be placed. Prevents bunched-up entries during tiny price wiggles.

Example: Set to 0.5%. If BTC is at $60,000, the price must move at least $300 away from each open position before another buy triggers.

What it does: Place a new buy whenever the price moves by this percent from the last filled order, up for the Up column, down for the Down column. Lower values trade more often.

Example: Down trigger 0.35%. After buying at $60,000, the bot buys again if the price falls to ~$59,790.

What it does: Each next order's trigger gap grows by this percent. Set to 0 to keep the gap flat; higher values widen the spacing as more orders accumulate.

Example: Trigger 1% with 50% growth means orders fire at moves of 1.00%, 1.50%, 2.25%, 3.38%… Useful when you want fewer orders the further price moves.

What it does: Each new order's size = previous order × this multiplier. Set to 1 to keep every order the same size, >1 makes orders grow over time.

Why on the Down side: Bigger orders at lower prices drop your average cost faster, so you recover profit sooner when price bounces back.

Tip: On the Up side, usually leave at 1.0×. Scaling up on rising prices is riskier since you're buying higher and higher.

What it does: Normally the bot's very first buy fires immediately when you start it. Turn this on to make even that first buy wait for the price triggers above. Note: re-entries after all positions close always wait for price triggers regardless of this setting.

When to use: You want the bot running and watching, but you don't want it to enter until the price actually moves in the direction you expect.

What it does: An extra guard for the trailing take profit. Even if the trailing pullback condition is met, the bot will only actually sell if the order's net profit (after fees) is at least this dollar amount. Prevents getting picked off by tiny scalps that barely cover fees.

"Enable" toggle: Off by default. Flip on and set a dollar value to activate it.

Example: Set to $2. The trailing TP triggers but the order would only profit $1.20, the bot waits for a better exit instead.

What it does: An emergency exit. If price drops by this percent below an order's entry, the bot sells that position right away to cap the worst-case loss.

"Enable" toggle: Off by default. Flip on and set a percent to activate it. When off, the bot has no automatic safety net.

Example: Set to 10%. If an order entered at $60,000 and the price crashes to $54,000, the bot sells right away instead of holding and hoping.

What it is: As you fill out your settings, the right side of the form shows a live preview of your order plan and a price chart with the projected entry levels.

What you'll see: Estimated order sizes at each buy level, total capital that would be committed, and how the multipliers stack up. Updates automatically as you change any field, no clicks needed.

What it does: An extra momentum filter. Before any buy or sell triggers, the bot checks recent candles to confirm the market is actually moving the right direction. If momentum doesn't agree, the bot waits.

In simple terms: Even if your price trigger fires, the bot asks "is the market actually trending the way I expect?" This avoids buying into a fakeout rally or selling at the bottom of a shallow pullback.

Where to find it: These toggles are embedded directly inside their matching section of the form. The Buy Up candle block sits at the bottom of the Up direction card (Entry Strategy). The Buy Down candle block is at the bottom of the Down card. The Sell candle block is inside the Exit Strategy section.
