[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] cryptocurrency-trading.png 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\u0027s 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]
Traders may face a problem if they want to create trading robots and one of the issues is the lack of programming knowledge. Not every trader can be a programmer. A trader may simulate a good trading system but have zero coding knowledge. Even if you know of the programming languages very well, you might need to learn another one but if you have 0 knowledge of programming then it can be very challenging. Of course, you can buy trading robot but always keep in mind that it’s not perfect and may have some bugs or problems which lead to difficulties in modifying trading robot. [nerd] trading-robot.jpg No worries here, there’s a solution. For example, our trading software - S#.Designer. It has the functions to create trading robots even with 0 knowledge of programming with help of cubic system which represent an individual elements of trading strategies. And at the same time such strategy won\u0027t be having less functionality or reliability. S#.Designer can combine and use the blocks (cubic) of code making strategies more flexible by your wish.[happy] Another disadvantage of trading robot is considered the lack of analyzing the current market conditions and trends. For sure, a trading robot is not an artificial intelligence and mostly depends human knowledge, however the knowledge of market with its technical analyse may minimize the problem. Using market data or other trading tools such as indicators or indexes which consist in S#.Designer in a large amount, you will be able to create a robot more loyal to the market, expand the conditions, functionality and possibilities to react to a particular trading situation. [wink] Automated trading systems can participants of the exchange market huge opportunities for a trade, provide some benefits over those manual traders. In any market, a trading robot always perform its embedded algorithm. However, you must know, that a trading robot only a tool and you have to know monitor its work in order to correct some problems showed up. A trader should understand that S#.Designer is not just create a robot, but also fill it with intelligence and logic, adding additional features and conditions. It also takes a step forward in creating more interactive and complex logic trading strategy that makes decision based on inputs which increases its profitability. [love] algotrading.jpg

Atrading robot has a technical ability to track hundreds of quotes at once instantly react at market changes, make necessary calculations by operating with a large number of conditions and a big amount of information making the right decision correlating to the base algorithm. The API library allows you to create a robot whose speed of data processing makes it possible immediately take into account the trends and conditions of the market. Traders which don\u0027t use trading robots are forced to reduce the amount of trading tools, increase the use of time intervals (timeframes) and leave the idea of perspective but complex trading systems. A trading robot doesn\u0027t have any psychological effect or influence, it works based on algorithm written in the code what makes it reliable and stable tool for placing orders and the whole trading process. Once you developed a trading robot then you don\u0027t have to spend days around the monitor rather let your advisor to handle all the work and monitor 24/7 the whole trading process and put orders.
