Setting Up Your First Trading Bot

Once your exchange account is connected to Bitlax Smart, you’re ready to deploy your first trading bot. This guide will walk you through the process from start to finish.


🟢 Why Use a Trading Bot?

Bitlax Smart bots help you:

✅ Trade 24/7 without manual monitoring
✅ Follow consistent strategies free from emotion
✅ Adjust risk and position size dynamically

Whether you’re new to crypto or scaling an active portfolio, bots can save time and improve discipline.


🟢 Step 1: Choose Your Bot Type

Bitlax Smart offers several bot templates. Each has a unique trading logic:

  • TrendSeeker: Follows established trends using momentum indicators.
  • GridNavigator: Places grid orders within a set price range.
  • ScalpRunner: Targets small, rapid price fluctuations.
  • CopyWave: Mirrors strategies from professional traders.

In your dashboard, go to Bots > Create New Bot and select the template that matches your goals.


🟢 Step 2: Select Trading Pair

Choose which asset you’d like the bot to trade, e.g.:

  • BTC/USDT
  • ETH/USDT
  • BNB/USDT

You can manage multiple pairs with separate bots if desired.


🟢 Step 3: Configure Strategy Parameters

Each bot type comes with recommended defaults, but you can customise:

✅ Position Size:
How much capital is allocated per trade.

✅ Risk Management:

  • Stop-loss %
  • Take-profit %
  • Daily loss limit

✅ Trade Frequency:
Scalping bots place many trades per day, while trend bots are less active.

✅ Indicators:
(Optional) Adjust technical indicators like RSI thresholds or moving averages.


Example:
For a TrendSeeker bot:

  • Position size: 3% of account balance
  • Stop-loss: 5%
  • Take-profit: 12%
  • Max simultaneous trades: 2

🟢 Step 4: Activate Your Bot

After reviewing your settings:

  1. Click Save Bot.
  2. Return to the Bot Overview page.
  3. Click Activate.

Your bot will now monitor the market continuously and execute trades when criteria are met.


🟢 Step 5: Monitor Performance

In your Dashboard, you can track:

  • Active positions
  • Profit and loss
  • Trade history
  • Current status (Active/Paused)

Adjust parameters at any time without stopping the bot.


🟢 Step 6: Pause or Stop

If you want to pause trading:

  • Click Pause Bot to temporarily stop new trades.
  • Use Stop Bot to end activity and close all open positions (depending on bot type).

🟢 Best Practices

✅ Start with a demo or smaller allocation to test settings.
✅ Monitor your bot daily, especially during volatile markets.
✅ Review performance reports weekly and refine strategies as needed.
