Start your first bot

Three ready-made bots sized to your account: what each does, and what happens when you press Start.

The steps, in words

  1. Step 4: Start a bot
    Once an exchange key is connected, the Get started band on the home page reaches step 4, Start a bot. The account needs at least 500 USDT.
  2. Grid: buys dips, sells bounces
    A spot grid on xSOXL: 14 lines from 130 to about 5% above the price. It buys nothing at start, buys as the price falls to a line and sells as it climbs back. 142 USDT per order, sized to your balance and plan.
  3. Martingale: adds as it falls
    Also xSOXL: up to 4 safety orders, each double the last and 1.6× further apart, all sold at the take-profit on the rebound. First order 64 USDT; all five together stay under 1,984.
  4. Bollinger: back to the average
    xNVDA on 1-hour bars: when the price strays far from its 50-bar average it trades the other way, long or short. 200 USDT per position — a tenth of the balance, at most 500.
  5. Confirm, then start
    Tap Start on a card and a sheet opens: exchange, market, the most it can commit and every setting. If it all reads right, tap Start the bot.
  6. This is live, with your money
    The bot places real orders on your own exchange account and can lose money. The funds stay in your account; A9 never holds them.
  7. Started: the card says running
    The card is marked running; tap Open the bot to see it. It is also under Strategies › My bots. The other two stay, re-sized to what is left.
  8. A greyed card says why
    Too little balance, orders too small, over the plan's quota or out of bot slots: Start is disabled and the reason is under the card. Choose a plan raises quota and slots.
