This bull cycle is quite distinct in a manner that we have a lot of Bot trading apps. I have always been a fan of bot trading. Gainium backtesting feature takes it to a next level. However , can bots using APIs handle the volatility. I still remember when even Binance failed to handle it; specially during sudden dump after massive pump. Stakes are high, i am sure no one want to lose this cycle (but may still lose). Gainium team is doing a great job but the task remains uphill as we need to clear-up even seemingly smaller issues. I think our priority should now be to keep it robust withot demanding new features from the hardworking team. Just to add, I noted that my bot is not picking base order as desired; its buying 100 USDT of BTC where as i commanded it to pick 200 USDT worth USDT (on Futures Trade). Which is not understood. Similarly i am unable to open Long and Short trades of BTC simultaneously (Hedge trading). These are something basic and the bot should not faulter when it comes to basic functions. I know the team will put it right but the emphasis here is making the basic functions robust without distracting into our wish list. Please accept my apologies in advance if someone doesn’t agree or thinks differently.
Gainium is what every bot loving wished for. I love this platform, it is great platform and will keep getting better. But here i agree with you. Instead of diverting focus on new stuff we should make the existing ones better enough. To make solid base for upcoming improvements.
Hey everyone and thank you for the kind words! Just wanted to address something that can happen during high market volatility. While we do everything possible on our end, bots might occasionally miss orders. This isn’t just about our system being busy—it’s also the exchange experiencing longer response times. When that happens, the bot may need to wait longer to act, increasing the chance of missing an order.
This can happen to any bot, but combo bots are more susceptible since they rely on more frequent communication with the exchange. To help with this, we’ve introduced the Compare Balances function! (I still need to write documentation for it—sorry about that! ).
In short, this feature checks your bot’s current balances against what they should be in theory, and if there’s a mismatch, it automatically buys or sells to correct it. It can also be enabled to perform checks and actions automatically under experimental features.
Great to see something is in place than just waiting to react in the moment.
Good stuff
