Start with one market and a low Max Trade Quantity. Review the events your strategy generates before increasing exposure, adding more markets, or raising the evaluation frequency.
Strategy Configuration
Every strategy you create has the following configurable properties:Key Controls
Prompt
The prompt is the most important part of your strategy. It tells the AI what to evaluate and how to act. Prompts can reference any supported data available to the AI. Write prompts that are specific about:- Which markets or market conditions to evaluate
- Entry, exit, and position-management rules
- When the strategy should hold rather than trade
Timeframe
The timeframe sets the data horizon used during each evaluation. A shorter timeframe (such as1m) focuses the AI on recent price action, while a longer timeframe (such as 4h or 24h) gives it a broader view of market structure.
Available timeframes:
Choose a timeframe that matches your intended trading horizon — a scalping strategy pairs naturally with
1m or 5m, while a swing strategy benefits from 4h or 24h.
Min. Confidence
The minimum confidence threshold controls how certain the AI must be before it submits an order. The default is 90%. Lowering this threshold can generate more trades, but may also increase incorrect decisions.Strategy Costs
Strategies consume AI credits for every event they generate. The estimates below use GPT-4.1-mini (the default model) and apply per market. Adding more markets multiplies these costs proportionally.
Pausing a strategy immediately stops event generation, trading, and credit consumption. You can resume a paused strategy at any time.
