The rules, in plain words
- Once a day, after the daily close, it compares Bitcoin's price with its average of the last 200 days.
- Above the average, your amount is held in Bitcoin.
- Below the average, it sells and keeps your amount in cash (USDT) until Bitcoin is back above.
- It acts at most once a day; most months it does nothing.
Risk
The hardest stretch since 2021 took USD 361 off USD 1,000 before it recovered (USD 766 for just holding Bitcoin). Choose an amount you can leave through a drop like that.
Details
- What it trades: Bitcoin against USDT, spot only, no borrowing.
- Trades that made money: 21% of 24 trades since 2021.
