There is no one-size-fits-all "best" trading strategy. Trading outcomes depend on goals and market conditions. Gunbot offers multiple strategies to support different approaches, and effectiveness can only be judged in hindsight because market dynamics are unpredictable.
Different Strategies for Entry and Exit
Gunbot provides a toolkit of strategies to help you decide when to enter and exit trades. Each strategy maps to a different trading style, from hands-on to highly automated.
Indicator-Based Strategies
Indicator-based strategies in Gunbot analyze market signals to identify trading opportunities. These strategies use technical indicators like moving averages, RSI, and MACD. For spot trading tuning, see selecting spot strategies.
Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Strategies
Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) buys or sells at regular intervals, regardless of price. This can smooth volatility and may be useful in turbulent markets. For building a DCA strategy in Gunbot, see the DCA strategy guide.
Interval-Based Strategies
Interval-based strategies trigger trades at set price or percentage intervals. This automates execution when specific criteria are met, reducing emotional decision-making. See the GridBot strategy for a common interval-based approach.
Combination Approaches
Gunbot also offers combination strategies that blend multiple techniques and adapt to changing market conditions. One example is the StepGridScalp strategy, which combines grid trading with scalping techniques.
Exit Targets
Setting exit targets is a key component of trading with Gunbot. Typically, trades are set to close when they reach a user-defined minimum profit target. This automates profit-taking so trades exit when your goals are met.
Conclusion
Gunbot's range of strategy options lets traders tailor their approach to their needs and market conditions. Whether you prefer the consistency of DCA, the precision of indicator-based strategies, or the flexibility of combination approaches, Gunbot provides the tools to support that mix.
