This is an automated trading bot that connects to Binance, a cryptocurrency exchange, and places buy and sell orders on your behalf. The author describes it as a personal test project and warns explicitly that there is no guarantee of profit and no responsibility taken for any losses. That disclaimer is front and center in the README. The core strategy is called trailing grid trading. Instead of buying or selling at a fixed target price, the bot follows the price as it moves. When a coin's price is falling, the bot keeps adjusting its buy order downward to chase the lowest point. Once the price turns back up past a set threshold, the order executes. The same logic applies when selling: the order chases the price upward and triggers when the price dips back down. This approach tries to buy closer to the bottom and sell closer to the top than a fixed-price order would. Grid trading adds another layer: you can set multiple buy rounds at different price levels. For example, buy 50 dollars worth if the price drops to a certain point, then buy 100 dollars more if it drops another 20 percent. The bot averages the purchase prices together and tracks a single last-buy-price figure to decide when selling becomes profitable. Multiple sell rounds work similarly, letting you cash out portions of your holdings at different price targets. The bot monitors multiple coins at the same time, checking prices every second. It uses a database called MongoDB to remember buy prices and settings across restarts. It runs inside Docker, which is a container system that packages all the software it needs, and the README notes it has been tested on Linux and Raspberry Pi 4. There is also integration with TradingView for technical analysis signals. The README is detailed with worked numeric examples for both buying and selling scenarios. Additional configuration documentation lives in the project wiki on GitHub.
