Crypto index in crypto trading!

2020-09-29T13:33:22Z

Crypto trading is a type of trading and therefore we should admit that as well as in classic trading, crypto trading has its own index. [wink]

The index reflects the condition of market of crypto currencies, based on average market indicators. As in classic trading, the index in crypto trading formed on data from the most liquid tokens. The amount of taken tokens displayed in the title. If there’s a number 10, then it includes 10 different crypto currencies. The change of every of these tokens has a high effect on the index. [ninja]

The growth of the components of the index therefore the index will be rising. If the rate of crypto currencies is decreasing, then the index will be cheaper. [wink]
Index is kind of basket of several components. Crypto trader can choose which components he wants and monitor all of them. [happy]
You might need an index chart to analyse the market. If the index is most common, then the chart will be shown in the appropriate resource.
But what if the index of trader portfolio investment is individual? For creating such index, the Hydra program will be indispensable. Hydra can collect the volume of each assets, calculate, and build the necessary index, moreover you can use this index in other programs just by saving it in your desirable format.[love]
The gotten index can give you detailed and comprehensive data of the market condition. Furthermore, to work with index will give traders the opportunity to analyse the market perspective and any assets. The trader gets more effective system of crypto trading and therefore to get more benefits and reduce risk. [wink][love]

Principles for trading cryptocurrencies part 3

2020-09-15T12:49:16Z

Today we’re going to talk about one of the most important financial instruments is an order book. It is formed by all sell and buy orders on crypto exchange. An order book is the list of orders which uses to record the interest of buyers and sellers of chosen cryptocurrency for fiat money or any other cryptocurrency and taking in consideration the closest price of trading pair.[laugh]

Sometimes it's crucial [ninja], especially in arbitrage, to have an opportunity to trade with several order books at the same time. This option is fully implemented in S# programs. For instance, the working area of free trading terminal S#, Terminal allows the trader to configure it so that it would has the very informative picture of the whole trading process. [nerd]

Every order book gives the full information about the volume offer and its price. The number of offers is the order book depth. The ability to customize the book order depth also is important part of trade, as it gives you the ability to see the whole list of offers. It's often that in the upper part of order book are placed bid offers and in the down part is ask offers of selected security.[happy][love]

By fact, the order book shows the desire of trading of cryptocurrency at a favorable rate of a trade for a trader. When an opposite trade is appeared, trade is executed, and the pair price is changing in the direction of the executed trade. If the order doesn't have any counter offers, then it remains without any changes until the counteroffer moment or the cancel it by trader.

What we see on the picture that based on data of the order book, a trader can perform the analysis or make decision about trade move on. So for example, a trader can determine the spread of a traded pair (the difference between the first values of the bid and ask prices), as well as predict the behaviour of graph chart (if there is large buy orders, then rapid growth is highly likely, and vice versa). Therefore, having the option to customize the book order, the trader get a great flexibility in a trade that will bring a big profit and/or lesser risks.

Principles for trading cryptocurrencies part 2

2020-09-08T12:39:00Z

In the previous article we’ve analysed the main tools used particularly in trading and crypto trading. We've explained such important element as a chart. Keep in mind that charts can be different, and each trader can use different charts and time frames. For example S#.Data (Hydra) program may build charts of various trading elements and time frames such as ticks, candles with various periods and volume charts. All of this give you a wide look to analyse the market, assess risks and its perspectives.[nerd]

A pair may have different charts which can be distinguished by time frames. So for instance, the chart can be of 5 or fifteen minutes period. These periods named are Time Frame.[happy]

Let's look at the basic elements of Japanese candle. The rectangles on the chart is the body of a candle. The body of candle is formed based on the values of beginning and the end of the chosen time frame.

A candlestick is a type of price chart, and its candlestick can have bullish pattern if the opening price is lower the closed price, or in the opposite direction is bear candlestick. In the S#.Data (Hydra) program candles adopted green and red colour therefore we can determine the rise or fall of selected exchange tool.

Also, a shadow is a line found on a candlestick chart which indicates the maximum and minimum price during the forming process. In the case of the absence of the upper shadow is considered that candle's top being cut off or the opposite is the base is cut off. [ninja]

A Doji is a candlestick with no real body, where the open price is equal to the closed price. If the body of the candle is small, then it is called a spinning top. S# programs allows traders to read candles as much as possible. A friendly interface and advanced analyses tools make them crucial for traders because the ability to read the candles it reduces the risks, especially in crypto currency market.[wink]

Principles for trading cryptocurrencies

2020-09-01T13:33:56Z

Speculative trading is widely spread type of trading on most well-known exchanges nowadays. Without any doubts the crypto exchange is not an exception. Buying cheap and then selling it for a higher price is the basic principle of classic trading.[wink]

From now onwards it should be said that for a trader who trades foreign exchange or securities market the move to the sphere of crypto trading going to be enough clear and simple to understand. [happy]
Besides it, we need to mention that the crypto trading becoming a very popular among beginners. This is due to ease access and loads of trading platforms along with name of tokens (cryptocurrencies).

Let's review the crucial tools for traders for a quick introduction of the base principles of crypto exchanges.[nerd]

- Graphs
- An order to buy or sell
- History of executed orders, trading volume (market data)

Let's look at these components one by one. [nerd]

Our first financial tool is a graph or chart. Most of the best trading software programs give the building graphs a high priority. So, for example, all software from S# have function to build graphs to capture the whole information of a current trade. Moreover, our free trading terminal S#.Terminal make it possible to trade right from the graph. [love]

So what do we mean by repeatedly saying the word graph?

The chart(graph) - is a history of quotations of a crypto pair, the ratio of the rate of one crypto pair to another including the ratio of fiat money (dollar, euro, and others).
The most popular chart is Japanese candlesticks, they provide maximum needed information and provide the ratio spread (the difference between the best sell (ask) and the bid (buy) that are relevant now on, the smaller the spread, the greater the liquidity of the given security)[ninja]

A Japanese candlestick is a type of price chart that's main because of its very informative and the view of price movement for the chosen period of time. It makes it simple to do technical analyse of trading strategies, adjust, and correct the trading robots were built by it. More detailed explanations about candles we will tell in new article.[wink]

Arbitrage trading. Principles, types.

2020-02-04T18:52:36Z

What is Arbitration, general concepts.

Recently, the concept of Arbitration has been found quite often in trade. What is Arbitration?
Arbitration is a method of profit that minimizes the risk of loss by using the price difference for the same asset in different markets.
Today, this mode of trade is a commonly used trade tactic.
Let us consider what this mode of trade consists of.
The point is to sell the same asset at a higher price in one market and purchase the same asset at a lower price in another market.
Such trade is one of the most important components of the market, and most traders seek to conduct such trade, effectively reducing the possibility of loss to a minimum.
Although the nature of arbitration consists of price differences of one asset in different markets, this strategy can be applied to two assets with similar prices and portfolio volume.
Consider what the arbitration portfolio is and its properties:
- Arbitration portfolio - portfolio of assets, which does not require additional resources of the investor.
- The arbitration portfolio is not influenced by any factor, that is, has zero risk.
In fact, for an investor, an arbitration portfolio is a tool that allows it to receive a large return, while remaining unaffected by various risks.
A simple example of arbitration trade:
Suppose the value of asset A on one of the exchanges is $100, while the value of the same asset on the other exchange is $105.
A trader acquires an asset on one exchange, where its value is lower, and sells it on an exchange, where the value of it is higher. Thanks to this strategy, the trader gains profit, in the form of price differences of asset A on various exchanges.
This example is quite simplified, and is given only for the sake of clarity, in real trade the implementation of such transactions has its own difficulties.

Choice of pair in arbitration.

Let us once again define Arbitration Trade based on practical knowledge of it.
Arbitration trading is a method in which trading is carried out by means of differently directed transactions with an asset or assets having similar prices and portfolios, based on the difference in their value. In fact, the trader buys a cheaper asset and sells a more expensive asset similar to the first asset.
Often, the arbitration pair selects a base and derivative asset (for example, shares and stock futures). Both assets should have similar price dynamics - correlation.
However, correlation has the property of being broken for various reasons.
Such reasons can be related to various serious market changes and to the consequence of market inefficiency. Emerging correlation violations contribute to profit in arbitration transactions. In fact, the trader profits when the correlation of the underlying and derived asset is restored, after its violation.
Simply put, an arbitration transaction occurs when buying a cheap asset and selling an expensive asset when there is a difference between their prices in view of various factors. However, for the rest of the time, the prices of both assets tend to be equivalent.

Types of arbitration trade.

Let 's look at what types of arbitration are distinguished in trading:
- Time arbitration;
- Spatial arbitration.
Temporary arbitration implies that transactions occur with a time difference. This type of arbitration is characterized by a mechanism: buy cheap, and sell expensive, or vice versa, sell expensive, and buy cheap. To put it simply, such a mechanism is actually - a common speculative transaction made on the stock exchange market.
Temporary arbitration contains a risk, as during the period of time the trend may not change the direction of movement, that is, if the trader initially bought the asset for cheap, it is not a fact that after time the asset will not cease to be cheap, thus bringing a loss on sale.
The next type of arbitration is spatial. With this type of arbitration, a couple of transactions are bought and sold at the same time but at different sites. In such transactions risk is minimal, and sometimes at all reduced to zero, as a couple of transactions take place simultaneously, at the same time the trader should take into account not only the difference in the price of the asset, but also possible commissions, which should be included in the expenses and covered by the amount of profit.
In addition to the types of transaction time, arbitration is divided into trading methods. Let 's look at the main ones and explain them.
Spatial arbitration is divided into the following types:
- Equivalent arbitration;
- Regulatory arbitration;
- Calendar arbitration;
- Percentage arbitration.

Equivalent arbitration refers to such transactions in which the underlying asset and derivative asset (derivative) are considered. Since the price of a derivative always strives for the price of a basic asset, price schedules go alongside each other, sometimes intersecting and diverging.
If we simultaneously open equidistant positions on the selected asset and its derivative, when they have the maximum divergence, then closing the position when they converge will make a profit.
Regulatory arbitration is based on the difference in price caused by different rules in different jurisdictions (areas, countries, unions).
For example: due to certain legislation, an asset in one region is sold with a markdown, and its price is correlated with prices in other regions, differing by a stable markdown difference. In this way, by purchasing an asset in one region and selling it in another, you can earn a profit in the amount of a markdown.
Calendar arbitration is based on the difference in price arising between futures on the same asset but having different delivery times. This difference is called a calendar spread. The subsequent trading mechanism is similar to the equivalent arbitration method.
The last type is interest arbitration. This arbitration takes place on the foreign exchange market (Forex), and there are two types:
- No forward coverage;
- With forward cover.
The essence of arbitration is that the currency is bought and placed on a deposit with a set percentage. The currency is then sold at the current market rate. If the currency purchase occurs with the sale of a forward contract for the same amount, arbitration with forward coverage. With this type of risk is minimal, and for frequent absence.
If the purchase is made without forward support, arbitration without forward coverage. Such arbitration may be accompanied by a large risk based on a change in exchange value, which may result in a loss that is greater than the percentage of income on the deposit.
Triangular arbitration is also common in the Forex market. Let 's look at it with an example:
The trader buys EUR/USD, sells EUR/GBP at the same time, and buys USD/GBP. An equilibrium triangular contour is created. It turns out that the trader bought Euro for dollars, sold Euro for Pounds, Bought Dollars for Pounds. Thus, a closed chain is obtained, on the imbalance of which profit is made.The scheme of such arbitration is shown below:

Conclusions

Arbitration trade has gained a lot of recognition among traders. A large number of approaches to solving the problems of arbitration trade, a large number of methods used to implement the tasks make this kind very flexible, and the absence of risk or its minimum value further popularizes it.
However, it is worth saying that the strategies of arbitration to direct, are related to the rate of reaction of the trader to changes in the asset. This leads to various requirements that promote successful trade:
- Fractions of a second play a major role in arbitration strategies. Therefore, such trading systems require good software. It can be represented by ready-made trading robots. For example, StockSharp offers the robot "Edward", which allows you to work using the trader's arbitrage strategy and is capable of quick and flexible configuration.
High-quality software is especially important when working for Forex, as the number of traders is high. Therefore, many prefer an individual approach and create trade robots on their own through various programs. Trading robots are mostly written in powerful C# or C++ languages, using libraries such as S#.API and Interactive Brokers API.
Recent years have also received designers of trade strategies TSlab and S#.Designer, which allow to create trade robots without programming.Below is an example of a trading robot created using S#.Designer, the graph shows the moment of divergence of assets and their convergence with the subsequent transaction by the robot.

Application of the latest software leads to reduction of risks and improvement of the mechanism of work and as a result to increase of profit.
- It is important to remember that the strategy, even if there is perfect software, is profitable, if the income will exceed the possible risk and all broker commissions.
- It is worth remembering even using a trading robot, the risk can not always be reduced, so the trader must constantly manage his strategy, improve his tools and his knowledge. Learning new principles that can be applied in trading can make a trader a pioneer in making profits.
It is necessary to know that arbitration strategies can and should be combined with other types of exchange trade, which will give additional opportunities in income generation.

FAQ on Aalgorithmic trading. The history of algorithmic trading.

2020-01-27T15:09:19Z

The start and emergence of algorithmic trading can be considered the 98th year of the last century, when the us securities Commission (abbreviated SEC), decided on the possibility of using electronic trading platforms, and as a result, the use of trading robots for algorithmic trading.

All this gave rise to a leap in technology in the field of trade.
There are several periods that are particularly important:
- the beginning of the 2000s, this period of technology allowed you to make automatic transactions in a few seconds, despite the low speed it was a breakthrough, according to the SEC calculation, robots account for less than 8% of transactions.
- the end of the 2000s was characterized by an increase in the speed of transactions up to milliseconds, during this period the number of transactions made by trading robots exceeded 55-60%.
- late period since 2010, the number of use of trading robots has decreased, and amounted to about 45-50%. Experts attribute the decline in usage to an increased number of errors and failures of trading robots.
Today, algorithmic trading (HFT trading) is one of the most important components of exchange trading. Not only private traders, but also large companies-invest. banks and funds use trading robots in their work.

The annual investment of companies in the development of tools for algorithmic trading is growing, and the result of such developments brings its own income.
StockSharp has been providing traders with all the necessary tools for algorithmic trading for many years, starting with connectors for exchange trading and ending with software that allows them to work on all trading platforms around the world.
You can find more information about the list on our website.

FAQ on Algorithmic trading. What is Algorithmic trading?

2019-12-24T15:37:52Z

The concept of algorithmic trading there are two values:
- Algotrading -an automatic system that allows you to open trades within the created algorithm, without the participation of a trader;
- Algorithmic trading – a method of execution of a large order, in which the order is automatically divided into parts, and is submitted consistently according to the established rules.

In the first case, algorithms are needed to make a profit, using automatic market analysis and opening positions. Such algorithms have other names such as "trading robot" or "Advisor".
In the second case, the algorithm is used in order to simplify the work of the trader in manual trading when making transactions in large volumes.
StockSharp company pursuing its goal to facilitate the work of the trader and bring it to a higher and more profitable level, has developed several programs to help the trader in this.
Among these programs is S#.Designer.

It allows you to create trading robots for algorithmic trading.
Our company has created a program that will help the novice trader to create his strategy with the help of dice. In fact, it is a constructor that requires a trader only to understand the market and the developed strategy, which is quite simple to implement and implement in trading processes. More information about the program can be found on our website.

FAQ on Crypto trading. Сrypto trading what is it?

2019-12-02T16:13:58Z

Good afternoon.
Today we will consider a relatively young type of trade - Сrypto trading. What is the difference between cryptocurrency token trading and traditional trading? Traditional trading is, for example, trading in precious metals, currencies and stocks. The main difference between crypto trading and trading on the stock market is the high volatility of the exchange rate.[nerd]
Traders want to get a return of thousands of percent of the transaction, but in the stock market, such transactions are extremely rare, and the time of its occurrence is large enough, they buy shares of little-known companies in the hope of increasing capitalization, which is sometimes not feasible. Below is a graph of the change in the exchange rate of various exchange instruments for several years, which shows how much the exchange rate of cryptocurrency is changing, which allows you to earn more.

In Crypto trading, fast trades with high returns are quite common. Crypto trading has the greatest similarity with Forex trading. Here, too, the value of currencies is volatile, and stock speculators earn by selling more expensive cryptocurrency and buying cheaper.
Different strategies and opportunities can be used to work in the cryptocurrency market. The Designer program, for example, offers a trading solution by building its profitable strategy.

Anyone, even a novice trader, can build his robot with the help of cubes responsible for the trading algorithm.
