Automate Your Crypto
Trading with a Bot

Cryptocurrency trading bots are computer programs that automatically buy and sell various cryptocurrencies at the right time with the goal of generating a profit.

We can only go by our experience. Yes, Crypto trading bots do work although you there are still risks to be aware of. Always do your own research into the crypto trading bot your decide to use and always manage your trading risk. If you do not know how to manage trading risk you should seek professional advice before continuing with trading cryptocurrencies.

Creating trading bot in 2023 is very easy. You can use simple drag n drop platform interfaces or use the pre-built trading features that most trading bot companies offer. 

You money is no less safer with an crypto trading platform than it is in your crypto exchange. Check to see if the trading bot is Custodial or non-custodial. If you are worried about the safety of your funds you may trade with API keys that connect your bot to your crypto trading exchange. 

Sort of! that's vague we know, however, like with any investment there is always risk to familiarise yourself with. Using a trading bot reducing the emotion that goes into the trade, therefore reducing human error and getting too attached to a trade. 

API keys are used to authenticate traders and identify what account is being accessed by the automated program. 

There are two important elements included in a set of API keys; the public key and the private key. These are sometimes also referred to as the public key and secret key.

When requesting access to a traders account, the program will use the secret key to sign requests. This tells the exchange that the program has authorisation to access the traders exchange account and perform the operations that are supported by the API key.

The difference between Custodial and Non-Custodial trading is that Custodial means that you are required to deposit your trading fund directly onto he platform. This is not always the best or safest solution. 

Non-custodial means that you use an API key to link your trading bot to your crypto trading exchange like Binance so that your fund always stay with you.

Although, it's not impossible. It is always best to keep a realistic approach to your trading and ideal outcomes.

Using trading bots is not a ‘get rich quick scheme' if you plan to trade with $50 or $100 it will take you a long time to become ‘rich' well, that all depends on what you class as rich of course.

AI-powered bots have improved significantly since 2022 and can now generate trade signals, adapt to changing market conditions, and filter out low-quality setups. Platforms like Cryptohopper and Pionex now include AI signal features. That said, AI bots are not magic. They still require a solid underlying strategy and appropriate risk settings. Test with small amounts before committing larger capital.

The collapses of FTX, Celsius, and others in 2022 were a wake-up call about counterparty risk. Most bots connect to exchanges via API and never hold your funds directly. Your assets stay on the exchange, not with the bot provider. That means exchange safety matters more than ever. We recommend using bots only with regulated or well-established exchanges, enabling API restrictions (read-only or trade-only, never withdrawal permissions), and spreading capital across multiple platforms.

Most crypto bots are non-custodial. They connect to your exchange account via API but never hold your funds. If a bot provider shuts down, your funds remain on the exchange and your API keys can simply be revoked. Always confirm a bot is non-custodial before depositing. For custodial platforms (where the provider holds your funds), you carry more risk and should treat them like an exchange account.

CEX (centralised exchange) bots trade on platforms like Binance, Coinbase, or Kraken via API. Your funds stay in your exchange account and trades are matched by the exchange's order book. DeFi or on-chain bots interact directly with smart contracts on blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, or BNB Chain, and trades execute on decentralised protocols like Uniswap or Jupiter. On-chain bots give you full custody of your funds and no exchange counterparty risk, but gas fees and slippage can affect profitability on smaller trades.

In most countries, every trade executed by a bot is a taxable event, whether or not you pressed the button. A bot running a grid strategy can generate hundreds of small transactions per week, each of which may be a taxable disposal. Tax treatment varies by jurisdiction (capital gains, income tax, or both). We strongly recommend using crypto tax software such as Koinly, CoinTracking, or TaxBit to track your bot trades, and consulting a tax professional familiar with crypto in your country before scaling up automated trading.

It depends on the strategy. DCA bots actually work well in bear markets because they accumulate at lower and lower prices, averaging down your cost basis for a long-term hold. Grid bots can also profit from volatility in a ranging bear market. Pure trend-following or long-only bots typically underperform when markets fall consistently. Before running any bot in a downturn, check whether its strategy is designed for ranging, trending, or bull conditions, and size your positions accordingly.
