Unlock the potential of automated trading.

Do Trading Bots Require Constant Monitoring?

The allure of trading bots is undeniable: a 24/7 trader working tirelessly for you. But does automation mean you can set it and forget it? Let's dive into the reality of monitoring trading bots and what it means for your trading strategy.
Trading bots like Gunbot offer an appealing solution for busy traders. By automating tasks and following predefined strategies, these bots can handle trades while you sleep. But how much oversight do they need? Lets look at how trading bots, especially Gunbot, function, and why they're designed to minimize the need for constant monitoring. You'll learn why automated trading may be the key to scaling your trading game without tying you to your screen.

Track Trades in Real Time

Gunbot shows live trades with detailed metrics so you can keep an eye on performance without manual involvement.

Monitor In Detail

Monitor market conditions from multiple angles, all within one dashboard, giving you the tools to optimize your strategy.

Do Trading Bots Really Need Constant Attention?

One of the biggest advantages of using trading bots like Gunbot is their ability to handle routine trades and complex strategies automatically. With features like customizable strategies, automatic updates via AutoConfig, and integration with TradingView for real-time strategy visualization, Gunbot offers a solution that drastically reduces the need for continuous monitoring. Of course, the degree of oversight you choose depends on your trading preferences. Some traders prefer to check in daily, while others may only glance at their dashboard once a week. Whether you're a hands-on trader or looking to minimize your involvement, Gunbot's flexibility means you can adapt the bot's behavior to fit your schedule.

Complete Automation

Gunbot manages trades based on predefined strategies, so you can focus on other aspects of life.

Customizable Strategies

Whether you want simple or advanced strategies, Gunbot's customizable features adapt to your needs.

Live Performance Feedback

Monitor live trades and key metrics without constantly adjusting settings.

Automated Adjustments

With features like AutoConfig, Gunbot automatically tweaks settings based on real-time market conditions.

“Gunbot is like having a personal trading assistant that never takes a break, but it's also nice to check in and see how well it's performing without needing to babysit every trade.”

Why Trading Bots Don't Need Constant Monitoring

The beauty of trading bots like Gunbot is that they are designed to make trading decisions based on the parameters you set. Once your strategy is in place, the bot will handle everything from buying low to selling high. And because it operates without the emotional pitfalls that often affect human traders, you can trust it to stick to the plan without second-guessing itself. Of course, periodic checks can be beneficial, particularly to assess performance and tweak your strategy to adapt to new market conditions. But thanks to tools like AutoConfig, which helps you to automatically adjusts settings in response to the market, you don't need to watch every move. With Gunbot, you can confidently take a step back while knowing your trades are in good hands.

Gunbot user reviews

I’m a rocky in this world and very surprise that I’m on the leaderboard must I say. I tried other platforms but Gunbot is the best because there is a very helpful community and developers. I tried some strats and at the end I’m very happy with MFrider for a mid / longterm.

I did a substantial amount of research before purchasing automated trading software and I can confidently say I have zero regrets going with Gunbot. I come from a manual trading background, and the support network here is absolutely insane in terms of helpfulness—the response time is faster than what you would get from your wife! This product deserves a 5 star review ALL DAY LONG.

Major love to the GB team. I started trading on DYDX using SGSFutures on Feb 26th. Started with $496 USD and I'm currently at $1,358 USD today in portfolio value. Running on 20 pairs. :)

I bought Gunbot back in the end of 2017, traded a bit, but then other things came in the way so I put it on ice. Recently I wrote a message in the contact form, and after like 20 minutes I got an email. They helped me get the bot back up running almost instantly. I did not expect such customer service after 3 years of owning a crypto bot. Gunbot withstands the test of time!

The strats in the last year have been just crazy. The competition and especially the top 5 each time are just completely insane. The last year for Gunbot was unbelievable. If we had what we have right now, with no changes or updates, we would be already golden. Those strats just keep getting better and more refined. I never felt more confident in recommending Gunbot to a friend than now.

Best Software of its kind. I have been using Gunbot for almost a year now; its performance is remarkable and automation makes it a real money maker with added peace of mind. The team is very supportive and the documentation is excellent. Still more valuable features can be added that I am looking forward to see.

Bought Gunbot in November, fumbled with Sim in December... Kicked off real trading last month... And after 1 month I made back the ultimate lifetime licence cost 2 times. Thanks for your great software @GuntharDeNiro and to all those who helped make it stronger with new strategies and feedback for improving the systems over the years. This is the best bot I have seen in terms of control we have as a user.

Would definitely give Gunbot 5 stars. Because even for someone like me, who is a complete beginner to the world of trading bots, and will obviously struggle with the typical 'newbie' error codes associated with setting up a new software that you are not familiar with. Their fast responding support team and wiki were more than enough to solve theseissues.

Trailing stops are great and all but let’s be honest, on markets that run 24/7 more is required. Much more. GunBot was something I wished for a long time and my only regret is not doing it sooner. The bot itself has been awesome so far, and the support has been even better. Very fast responses, super knowledgeable, and friendly.

It’s extremely intimidating to allow a bot to control large sums of your money. Support had me go live in two days from payment to first trade. I’m sitting here writing this, watching my daughter play, bot streaming in background, and I finally feel like I can look away from my screen for more than 10 minutes.

It's a great product. I spent about a year working on my own bot in Python before discovering Gunbot. It turned out to be exactly what I envisioned for my 'dream bot,' but far more advanced and mature. That's why I consider it an excellent product that is worth every dollar. Thank you very much, and Merry Christmas!

Having purchased Gunbot back in 2017, and using it on and off throughout the years, I am always impressed by the improvements made here internally and through the community. I rarely have to ask questions because I can find what I need on the wiki or through the telegram channel. You guys are amazing and thank you.

I’ve been using Gunbot for quite some time, and it has been a solid trading tool for me. The interface is easy enough to pick up, but it’s definitely not for complete beginners with no trading experience. You still need to think things through and apply your own knowledge to get the best results from its many features. In terms of performance, it has been consistent, and I’ve rarely run into issues. When I did have questions, the support team responded quickly and helped me out. If you know your way around trading and want a bot that offers flexibility, Gunbot is a good choice.
