Algo Trading (Algorithmic Trading)

By: WEEX|2024/10/10 03:07:51

Algorithmic trading, or algo trading, refers to the use of automated software to execute trades based on predefined conditions. In crypto markets, algo trading strategies can be set to buy, sell, or hold assets based on market movements, volume, or other triggers, making it highly efficient in capturing market opportunities. Algorithms can be used to engage in high-frequency trading or long-term strategy implementation without the need for constant manual intervention. 

 

A Bitcoin trader might set up an algorithm to buy BTC whenever its price drops by 2% within a specific time frame and sell when the price increases by 5%. This allows the trader to take advantage of short-term price fluctuations without constantly monitoring the market.
