SCANNER MANUAL

Scanner Manual

Objective reference covering 5 indicator algorithms, parameter definitions, risk management notes, glossary, and troubleshooting.

This manual is an objective algorithm reference. It is not a trading recommendation, financial advice, suggestion, or profit guarantee. All indicator choices, parameter values, TP/SL/TS settings, and asset selections must be decided by you after your own backtesting and trading judgment. The service performs only the technical relay of orders to exchanges based on conditions you configure.

1. Five Indicators Explained

Each indicator's algorithm and parameter meanings are described objectively. Which indicator suits which trading style is decided by you.

1-1. Triple MA Crossover
trend-following
Algorithm
Detects the bullish (Short > Mid > Long) or bearish (Short < Mid < Long) alignment of three moving averages. A signal is generated when the alignment holds for the lookback window and the gap exceeds the threshold.
Mathematical traits
Shorter periods react faster to price changes → more frequent signals + more noise. Longer periods are smoother → fewer signals but lag the trend.
Parameters
  • short_period — bars in the short MA
  • mid_period — bars in the mid MA
  • long_period — bars in the long MA
  • lookback — bars the alignment must hold
  • gap_threshold — minimum gap between MAs (%)
1-2. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
oscillator
Algorithm
Computes a 0–100 momentum value from the ratio of average gains to average losses over N bars. Conventionally classified as overbought (70+) or oversold (30-).
Mathematical traits
Shorter periods are more sensitive → 70/30 zones triggered more often, with more weak signals. Longer periods are smoother → zones are reached less often.
Parameters
  • rsi_period — bars in the RSI window
  • oversold_threshold — RSI level for the long-entry zone
  • overbought_threshold — RSI level for the short-entry zone
1-3. Stochastic
oscillator
Algorithm
Computes %K as the relative position of the current close within the highest-high / lowest-low range over N bars. %D is a moving average of %K. Signals come from %K/%D crossovers combined with overbought / oversold zone exits.
Mathematical traits
A momentum oscillator similar to RSI but based on price position, so it reacts faster and is noisier. Shorter %K periods produce more frequent crossover signals.
Parameters
  • k_period — bars in the %K window
  • d_period — bars in the %D moving average of %K
  • oversold_threshold / overbought_threshold — zone thresholds
1-4. Bollinger Band
volatility
Algorithm
Plots a volatility band (upper / lower) at N standard deviations above and below a moving average (middle). Signals are generated when price breaks out of or reverts inside the band.
Mode
Breakout = trend entry on band exit. Reversal = mean-reversion entry on return inside the band. You select the mode.
Mathematical traits
Smaller standard-deviation multipliers create a narrower band with more frequent exits. Larger multipliers create a wider band with rarer exits.
Parameters
  • bb_period — bars in the middle moving average
  • bb_deviation — standard-deviation multiplier
  • bb_mode — breakout or reversal
1-5. yoon V2 (SuperTrend-based)
multi-filter
Algorithm
A multi-filter algorithm combining SuperTrend (ATR-based trend line), VWMA (volume-weighted moving average), a volume threshold, and candle confirmation. A signal fires only when all filters pass.
Mathematical traits
Combining filters lowers signal frequency compared to a single indicator and means signals satisfy multiple conditions at once. Smaller ATR multipliers make the trend line more reactive, larger ones make it steadier.
Parameters
  • atr_period / atr_multiplier — SuperTrend ATR settings
  • vwma_period — bars in the VWMA
  • volume_threshold — minimum volume ratio
  • candle_confirm — confirmation bars

2. Trading Parameter Definitions

Definitions and mathematical traits of the parameters used after the scanner generates a signal.

Term Definition Mathematical traits
TP (Take Profit) Auto take-profit when price reaches +X% above entry. target = entry × (1 + TP/100) Smaller = quicker take-profit + more trades. Larger = bigger gains per trade + fewer trades.
SL (Stop Loss) Auto stop-loss when price reaches -X% below entry. stop = entry × (1 - SL/100) Smaller = quicker stop-loss (smaller loss per trade). Larger = absorbs more volatility but allows bigger drawdowns.
TS (Trailing Stop) Auto-sell when price drops -X% from the highest high since entry. The stop trails upward as price rises. Locks in profit while trend-following. Smaller = exits earlier, larger = allows deeper pullbacks.
Order Size % Percentage of available balance used per trade. e.g. 10% means 10% of balance is used per order. Smaller = lower per-trade exposure (diversified). Larger = higher per-trade exposure (concentrated).
Leverage (Futures) The borrowing multiplier the exchange offers on top of your capital. e.g. 10x means a 10 USDT position on 1 USDT of margin. X-fold P&L amplification. Liquidation (forced close) risk increases accordingly.
Whitelist List of symbols the scanner will evaluate for trades. Empty = the scanner evaluates all symbols on the exchange. Populated = only listed symbols are evaluated.
Candle / Bar OHLC (open / high / low / close) over a fixed interval — 1m, 1h, 4h, 1d, etc. Indicators are evaluated at bar close, not in real time.

3. Risk Management (Reference)

Objective notes on common risk-management considerations in automated trading. You decide based on your own risk tolerance and capital.

3-1. Capital Diversification

It is mathematically established that diversifying capital across multiple assets reduces overall loss exposure to any single asset's volatility (portfolio diversification effect). You decide the number of positions and weights.

3-2. Leverage

X-fold leverage amplifies P&L X-fold. The liquidation price also sits closer to entry, raising liquidation risk for volatile assets. You choose anywhere from no leverage (1x) to the exchange's maximum based on your risk tolerance.

3-3. Number of Concurrent Positions

More concurrent positions spread capital and reduce the impact of any single asset's loss, but also increase signal-monitoring load and exchange API rate-limit pressure. You decide how many positions you can run.

3-4. TP / SL / TS Ratios

TP / SL ratios should match your style (e.g., TP > SL is common). Trailing stops work well in trending markets but can exit quickly in choppy or highly volatile conditions. Decide after your own backtests.

3-5. Built-in Safety Guards

  • Withdraw permission disabled: keep Withdraw OFF when registering the API key → asset withdrawal becomes structurally impossible
  • 0/0/0 close blocked: when TP/SL/TS are all zero or in manual mode, auto-close does not fire
  • Double-call prevention: the scanner uses an internal lock so the same signal cannot trigger duplicate entries

4. Validate with Backtest (setup → backtest → run)

Before you actually run the scanner, use the backtest to see how your current strategy would have performed on historical data. Backtest signals use the exact same logic as the chart arrows — it replays the strategy you see on the chart.

Recommended workflow (3 steps)

  1. ① Configure the scanner — choose exchange, indicator, parameters, whitelist and TP/SL/TS, then click Save. The backtest replays the saved config, so save first.
  2. ② Check the backtest — click ⏱ Backtest → pick a period (7/10/30/90/180 days) → review trades, win rate, total PnL, average, MDD and the trade list (entry→exit with TP/SL/TS/REVERSE reason). If weak, return to ① and adjust, then re-validate.
  3. ③ Run the scanner — once validated, click ▶ Start Scanner. The server evaluates signals on every bar close 24/7, auto-enters, and exits by TP/SL/TS. Stop with ■ Stop.
⚠️ Backtest limits (be aware): simple-interest sum of price %, excluding fees/funding/slippage/leverage. Entry ≈ signal-bar close; partial-TP/trailing counted as full TP; if TP and SL both hit within a bar, SL wins (conservative). Past performance does not guarantee future returns. Newly-listed tokens may have less history than requested — the actual days are then shown in the result.

5. Glossary

6. Troubleshooting

Common technical issues with the scanner and auto-trading flow, and what to check.

5-1. Scanner Is Not Producing Signals

Confirm the scanner is running

Make sure you clicked [START SCANNER] in the dashboard and the status reads running.

Whitelist symbols match the selected exchange

Empty whitelist scans all symbols; populated whitelist only scans listed ones. When the exchange is USDT-M, symbols must follow the USDT-M format (e.g., BTCUSDT).

Parameters are not too restrictive

For example, very long lookback or very large gap_threshold values rarely satisfy conditions. Adjust to your trading style.

Wait for bar close

Indicators are evaluated at bar close. With 1h bars that's at the top of each hour; with 4h bars it's every four hours at close.

5-2. Orders Fail

Check API key permissions

Both Read and Trade must be enabled. Keep Withdraw OFF. With Trade OFF, no order can be placed.

Insufficient balance

If size% × price + fees exceeds available balance, the order fails. Check your balance on the exchange.

Below exchange minimum order size

Each exchange has minimum order quantities and minimum notional amounts per symbol. Very small order percentages get rejected.

Leverage or margin mode mismatch

If the leverage or margin mode (Cross / Isolated) set on the exchange differs from what's set here, orders may be rejected.

IP whitelist registration

If you applied an IP whitelist to the API key, our server IP must be allowed. We recommend adding 13.209.224.50.

5-3. Auto-close Does Not Fire

Check whether TP/SL/TS are all zero

As a safety guard, auto-close does not fire when TP/SL/TS are all zero or set to manual mode. Set non-zero values to enable auto-close.

Verify the active position appears in the Monitor tab

A position must appear in the Monitor tab for auto-close evaluation to run. If it does not, verify the position on the exchange side.
