A crypto trading bot is nothing more than an algorithm that executes automatically buy and sell orders on your crypto account. In other words, a crypto bot is a computer program that does the trading for you. There are different types of crypto trading robots. They can differ by the algorithm or the underlying strategy the bot uses to make trading decisions. They may differ by the coding language used to develop them. Some traders prefer to code a trading bot themselves and others rely on existing bots and use SaaS or open source solutions.

Choosing a Crypto Bot
There are different types of cryptocurrency bots in terms of their technical complexity and user-friendliness.

Today we will have a look at those crypto trading algorithms in our selection that require the trader to understand crypto trading strategies and signals. If you are a complete beginner in cryptocurrency trading, these bots may not be the right choice for you. We will prepare a separate list for beginner-friendly crypto trading bots.
