Manual Trading

This section contains two submenu options: Use Main Settings and Use Manual Strategy.


If you select Use Main settings, you can trade manually by setting the necessary parameters, such as buy and sell conditions, stop-loss, trailing, blacklist filters, and other settings. These can be configured both in the Settings → Main tab and on the main terminal screen.


The second option is designed for working with Manual strategies. Note that if no manual strategies are available in the strategy list, the Use Manual Strategy option will be inactive.


Manual strategies allow for more detailed configuration of primary and additional parameters, such as placing a multi-order grid in one click with a specified step size, different levels for placing Sell orders, additional stops, trailing stops, BV_SV stops, and other settings.


It is recommended to create several Manual strategies customized to different volatility levels, following the general rule: the higher the coin’s volatility, the wider the step between multi-orders and the higher the Sell order level. Examples of Manual strategies can be found in the MANUAL folder of the MoonBot ID 500 terminal, which can be downloaded from our website: 🔗 https://moon-bot.com/ru/download/. You can download the Quick Start (Demo Version) by clicking the DOWNLOAD DEMO VERSION button.


After creating Manual strategies, go to the Manual Trading tab and select Use Manual Strategy. Then, on the main terminal screen, click to Select a manual strategy and choose the desired strategy from the list. Once selected, all orders will be placed using this strategy. In this mode, all main Buy and Sell order parameters will be determined by the selected manual strategy.


In manual trading, stop settings are usually used less frequently, as the trader monitors position closure visually. However, if needed, stop levels can be configured in the Stops tab within the manual strategy settings. In high-volatility conditions, using a manual strategy with short stop levels may lead to immediate position closure at a stop-loss, resulting in a loss.


Unlike other strategies, Manual strategies begin to operate immediately after being selected and do not require additional activation. They remain active regardless of whether the indicator light is on or off.


Manual strategies can also be selected using hotkey settings for manual trading, which are configured in Settings → Hotkeys → Manual Strategies. By enabling the Button option in the control panel, buttons will appear in the auxiliary control area. Right-clicking on these buttons allows you to select and assign the necessary manual strategies for quick access. Below each Button label in the Settings → Hotkeys → Manual Strategies tab, you can set hotkey combinations to activate the corresponding manual strategies assigned to the buttons.
