Market Regime: The Market Regime card shows the current Kostolany phase (A1–B3) and the 4-way trading regime (UPSTREAM, DOWNSTREAM, CAUTION, NEUTRAL), so you can align your strategy with market conditions.

4. Detailed Strategy Guide

Detailed explanation of each strategy component for effective setup and understanding.

Strategy Components Summary

• RSI thresholds: (oversold_threshold, overbought_threshold)
• Bollinger Band usage: (use_bollinger_buy, use_bollinger_sell)
• MACD usage: (use_macd, macd_histogram_threshold)
• Stop Loss & Take Profit: (stop_loss, take_profit)
• Market trend detection: (upstream_threshold_percent, downstream_threshold_percent)

🚩 RSI-based Trading Signals

RSI indicates whether price is overbought (high) or oversold (low). (0~100 range)

• Oversold (oversold_threshold): Buy signal when RSI ≤ 30 (staged buy_ratio by depth)
• Overbought (overbought_threshold): Sell when RSI ≥ 70 — full sell if position <$300, else 50% partial

🚩 Bollinger Band Signals

Use price volatility; trade when price touches upper or lower band expecting a reversal.

• use_bollinger_buy: Buy when touching lower band
• use_bollinger_sell: Sell when touching upper band

🚩 MACD Settings

Use MACD to identify trend reversal signals for trading.

• use_macd: Enable/disable MACD
• macd_histogram_threshold: Buy signal when MACD histogram turns positive

🚩 Stop Loss & Take Profit

Auto-sell when specified loss or profit level is reached. Both TP and SL execute full-position sell (100% of holdings).

• stop_loss: Loss limit (e.g. -3%) → full sell
• take_profit: Profit target (e.g. 5%) → full sell

🚩 Market (Bull/Bear) Detection

Judge overall market sentiment from major index movement.

• upstream_threshold_percent: Bull market threshold (e.g. 1%+)
• downstream_threshold_percent: Bear market threshold (e.g. -1% or below)

⚙️ Example Strategy Combination

• RSI: 30 (buy), 70 (sell)
• Bollinger Bands: Use for both buy and sell
• MACD: Buy when histogram turns positive
• Stop Loss/Take Profit: -3% / 2%
• Market: Bull (1%+), Bear (-1% or below)

Buy actively in bull markets and limit buying in bear markets for strategic risk management.

📋 Strategy Configuration Examples

Practical setup examples for common strategy goals:

• Take-Profit-only strategy (no Stop Loss): Set Overbought to 99 so RSI-based sell rarely triggers; only Take Profit executes.
• When Overbought threshold is exceeded: Position is automatically split into 2 and sold in 2 partial sell orders.
• When Trade Amount is fully used: The same amount will be bought again when buy conditions are met (e.g. RSI oversold).
• Max buy per symbol: Total position value never exceeds Max Invest Limit; additional buys are blocked once the limit is reached.

5. Coinbase API Setup

To use automated trading, register API keys from Coinbase. Follow these steps:

1. Log in to Coinbase and create API keys in Settings → API.
2. Enable trade and balance permissions. Disable withdrawal for security. IP whitelist can be left empty.
3. Register your API keys in the ai Swing X™ Profile page. Keys are encrypted for security.

Go to Profile to enter your Coinbase API Key ID and Private Key:

See Coinbase API documentation for details.

6. Trade Log & Monitoring

All buy/sell/hold commands are logged for transparent tracking. View Transaction History on the Dashboard with Weekly, Monthly, or All filters.

• Trigger: Factor that generated the signal (e.g. RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands)
• Market State: Market state at execution (bull/bear/neutral)
• Indicator values: RSI, MACD histogram, volume change %, etc.
• Strategy parameters: All settings used (stop loss, take profit, thresholds, etc.)

Use these logs to analyze strategy performance and refine as needed.

8. USDC Auto Savings 💵

What is USDC Auto Savings?

USDC (USD Coin) is a stablecoin pegged 1:1 to the US dollar. By automatically saving 10% of your weekly profits into USDC, you are essentially converting volatile crypto gains into stable cash — protecting your profits from market downturns while keeping them ready for future trades.

How does it work?

• Every Friday at 2:59 PM Austin time (auto-adjusted to your local time), the system calculates your total realized profits from the past 7 days.
• 10% of those profits is automatically used to purchase USDC on Coinbase.
• Minimum purchase threshold: $50. If your 10% is less than $50, it rolls over to next week.
• Only profitable trades are counted — losses are never included in the calculation.
• You receive instant Telegram and email alerts on every successful or failed purchase.

Why is this powerful?

• 💰 Automated profit-taking: No need to manually move funds — profits are harvested and secured every week without lifting a finger.
• 🛡️ Downside protection: By converting a portion of gains into USDC, you reduce exposure to sudden market crashes.
• 📈 Compound effect: Over time, your USDC balance grows week after week, creating a powerful buffer and dry powder for future opportunities.
• 🔔 Full transparency: Every transaction is logged and you receive instant alerts — always in control.
