Does the system use the entire balance on each trade at all times ?

Updated over a month ago

One of the most common questions we receive from our users is whether our system uses their entire balance on each trade. The short answer is no, our system typically uses a fraction of the balance, with an average usage ranging from 10% to 25%. However, there may be occasional instances where 100% of the balance is used during highly volatile market days.

We prioritize the safety and success of our users' trades. To achieve this, we implement something we call "smart sizing" via limit order scaling as part of our system. This involves utilizing enhanced limit orders that adapt to live market volatility, ensuring optimal entry points even during periods of extreme volatility.

Our proprietary algorithm is based on the principles of volatility clustering theory, which examines volatilities through the lens of standard deviations. By analyzing these patterns, our algorithm makes its decisions. This approach allows us to secure profitable positions without overexposing users' accounts to unexpected market fluctuations.

We understand that entering losing trades and building up large positions at unfavorable prices can be a concern for our users. That's why we have implemented this smart sizing feature to mitigate these risks and ensure the best possible outcomes for our users.

In summary, our system typically uses a fraction of your balance on each trade, with an average usage ranging from 10% to 25%. We also utilize enhanced limit orders and a proprietary algorithm based on volatility clustering theory to ensure optimal entry points and minimize risks for our users.
