Cryptocurrency strategies: build, backtest and inspect

Follow the example

Choose a step to follow the example. Opening a request lets you review it; it does not submit a job or change your account.

Step 1 of 3

Start with BTC trend following

Choose BTC-USD and read the SMA50 entry, PositionValue guard, 95% buying-power allocation and complete exit in the linked strategy.

Open the BTC trend example →

What you should see

An explicit Cryptocurrency asset type, full USD pair and fractional sizing.

Step 2 of 3

Inspect the completed 2024 example

Read the curve against SPY and BTC buy and hold over the same dates. Follow an actual Filled purchase and sale and check the 0.7% notional fee per fill.

What you should see

Recorded units, prices, cash and fees rather than a claim that holding BTC alone is the strategy.

Step 3 of 3

Preview the exact candidate

Use the strategy's Aurora request and inspect the returned draft before saving or testing. Keep dates, initial capital and baseline asset type explicit.

What you should see

A reviewable spot strategy. This does not authorize orders or start a research job.
