Formal automatic trading in the cryptocurrency era

Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile due to their lack of regulation and the their always-open nature. This gives rise to the need to develop systems that can help investor limit the risks and improve the gains from the market, particularly in a downward trend. Moreover, due to the volatility of the market, it is very important for traders to act on trade signals as soon as possible, which further increases the need to an automatic system. A system was developed that analyses data from one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges by transactions and simulates a trader’s transactions on the exchange. The system designed computes the optimal set of parameters needed to increase the return on investment for a trader.
