When should the Manual strategy be used?

: Strategy settings

For more precise adjustment of order parameters when trading manually in the MoonBot terminal, there is a special type of strategy called “Manual”. Using Manual strategies, you can set trailing, stop loss and many other parameters with any degree of precision. After creating a strategy, there is no need to tick it and include it in the list of strategies; simply fill in the parameters and save the strategy.

To trade in the terminal using a manual strategy, select “Use Manual Strategy” in the main window of the MoonBot terminal via “Menu – Manual Trading”.
Next, if you have filled in several manual strategy options, select the one you need at the moment by clicking on the name of the strategy (under the BNB balance) or click on the button to select manual strategies, if you have configured these buttons in the Setting – Hotkeys – Manual strategies tab.

Please note! When using the Manual strategy, its filters may also work and not place orders if the filters do not allow it. If you do not need filters for the manual strategy, set the IgnoreFilters = YES parameter (ignore filters) on the general Filters tab of the strategy settings, or if the IgnoreFilters = NO parameter (do not ignore filters) is set, set deliberately wide ranges of values on other filter tabs, for example, on the Filters / Delta tab, set the coin delta for different intervals from 0% to 1000%, and the BTC and market delta from -100% to +100%.

The Strategy settings tab for the Manual strategy contains only one parameter, UseHookStrategy, which is used to select the MoonHook strategy with which the Manual strategy will interact using the “ManualHook” algorithm. This means that with this setting, you can manually place orders that will behave according to the MoonHook strategy, for example, with a price tracking corridor.
