A regular take-profit sells when price reaches its target. A trailing take-profit works differently: reaching the target activates trailing sell behavior. The position can stay open and follow favorable price movement instead of closing immediately. With a trailing exit, reaching the target does not necessarily mean the trade is over. Read the Trailing Take-Profit help article for the full explanation. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/5814862-trailing-take-profit #TrailingTakeProfit #TakeProfit #TradingBots #CryptoTrading

Tired of searching the full market list for the same coins? Add the ones you're studying to a watchlist, then check their recent price changes as you observe the market. It keeps your research focused before you act, but it won't choose a coin or trading strategy for you. Read the Watchlist help article to learn more. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/5814945-watchlist #Watchlist #CryptoResearch #MarketResearch #TradingEducation

When a bot setting is set to apply only if no value exists, it acts as a fallback. A group setting or a posted signal setting takes precedence when that parameter is already defined. The bot setting fills the gap only when neither one provides a value. Knowing the order helps you see which configuration will guide an automated trade. Read the help article for the full fallback-setting explanation. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/9274477-only-use-if-not-defined-by-group #Cornix #TradingBots #CryptoTrading #TradingAutomation

A market order aims to execute immediately at the best available price. A limit order sets a price condition and may wait until the market reaches it. The practical question is simple: does speed matter more right now, or does your price condition? Choose the order type that matches what you need to control. Read the guide to learn more about order types and execution conditions. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/5814973-order-types-limit-vs-stop #Cornix #CryptoTrading #TradingBasics #OrderTypes

A spot order buys or sells the asset itself. A futures order trades a contract tied to an asset's value, not direct ownership. That difference affects whether you are trading the asset or a contract, including the margin and settings you choose. Check which market you selected before configuring a trade. Read the Spot VS Futures guide for the full comparison. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/6904824-spot-vs-futures #CryptoTrading #SpotTrading #FuturesTrading #TraderEducation

A Secure Client Invite creates a clearer onboarding path for managers and clients. 1. The manager sends a secure invite link. 2. The client uses the link to connect their exchange account. 3. The client does not publicly hand API keys to the manager. This keeps client setup separate from manager oversight and reduces sensitive-key exposure during onboarding. Read the Secure Client Invite guide in the Cornix Help Center. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/11098824-secure-client-invite #Cornix #ClientOnboarding #APISecurity #CryptoTrading

A Grid bot uses preset price levels within a defined range. That range should reflect a market area you can explain, not a set of random numbers. Before starting the bot, decide what you expect if price moves beyond the range. Grid trading is built around repeated movement within the range, so planning for an exit is part of the setup. Read the full guide to grid bot ranges, orders, risks, and when traders study them. https://cornix.io/blog/grid-trading-explained-trading-volatility-in-sideways-markets #GridTrading #CryptoTrading #TradingBots #TraderEducation

Scaling account automation does not mean giving one operator unrestricted access to every account. Keep client permissions, exchange access, and reporting responsibilities distinct. Automation can handle repeatable execution while the boundaries around each account stay visible and accountable. Read the full guide to multi-account automation, permissions, and monitoring. https://cornix.io/blog/asset-managers #AssetManagement #CryptoAutomation #AccountPermissions #TradingOperations

An account view gives you the broad picture: balances, connected accounts, and overall activity. A trade view is where you inspect individual open positions and their details. They answer different questions. Start with the account when you need the overview, then open a trade when you need position-level detail. That keeps a broad snapshot from standing in for a trade review. Read the Portfolio Section guide for the full account view. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/14072325-portfolio-section-view-and-monitor-your-exchange-accounts #Cornix #CryptoTrading #TradingAutomation #PortfolioMonitoring

A webhook is the handoff between a TradingView alert and a bot you have already configured. When the alert fires, the webhook sends it into that bot workflow. It does not create a strategy or replace your bot settings. Think of it as the connection that lets your alert reach the actions your bot is already set up to handle. Read the guide to create TradingView alerts and connect them to your bot. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/6325118-create-tradingview-alerts-and-connect-them-to-your-bot #Cornix #TradingView #TradingBots #CryptoTrading #TraderEducation

Manual trading keeps every decision and action with you. Automated trading can handle both when rules are clear. A hybrid workflow separates the two: you set the strategy, while automation handles repeatable execution. The right fit depends on how clear your rules are, how demanding execution is, how much oversight you want, plus costs and failure controls. Choose the workflow that matches how you actually trade. Read the full guide to compare manual, automated, and hybrid trading. https://cornix.io/blog/crypto-trading-bot-vs-manual-trading-what-traders-actually-consider #CryptoTrading #TradingAutomation #TradingBots #TraderEducation

When a strategy uses more than one entry target, entry ratios decide how the planned amount is divided between them. That means changing the ratio changes how much capital is deployed at each price level. Review the split alongside the rest of your strategy settings so the distribution matches your plan. Read the Entry Ratios Strategy - Built-in guide. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/5814861-entry-ratios-strategy-built-in #Cornix #CryptoTrading #TradingStrategy #EntryOrders #TraderEducation

With multiple take-profit targets, the target prices are only part of the setup. Your take-profit ratios decide how much of the position is assigned to each target. Give one target a larger share, and more of the position closes when it is reached. Change the ratios while keeping the prices, and the exit unfolds differently.

An exchange API key can give Cornix permission to read balances and place, update, or cancel trades. That does not require withdrawal access. When you create a connection, review its permissions and keep withdrawals disabled. This limits the connection to the access it needs for reading and trading. Learn the permission basics in What is an API key? https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/5814843-what-is-an-api-key #Cornix #APIKey #CryptoSecurity #TradingAutomation

Before you use a workflow with live capital, run one test cycle in a demo account. It mirrors the platform with real-time market data and simulated trading, so you can watch how your configuration responds. Use what you observe to decide whether the workflow is ready for live use. Read the Demo Accounts - Risk Free Trading article. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/9853159-demo-accounts-risk-free-trading #Cornix #DemoTrading #CryptoTrading #TradingEducation #RiskManagement

A backtest runs a strategy against historical data. That can help you inspect how it behaved and compare configurations under past conditions. What it cannot do is establish how the strategy will perform when market conditions change. Use backtests to learn, test, and refine - not as a promise of future results. Read why past results do not guarantee future outcomes. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/9572268-past-results-do-not-guarantee-future-outcomes #Backtesting #TradingEducation #CryptoTrading #StrategyTesting

A backtest can look attractive before real execution costs are included. Fees, spread, slippage, funding, and subscription costs can change what the historical result means in practice. Model those costs before deciding whether a bot strategy's backtest is meaningful. The result you want to judge is the one closer to how trading would actually be executed. Learn how to estimate real execution costs in the full article. https://cornix.io/blog/crypto-trading-bot-fees-slippage #CryptoTrading #TradingBots #Backtesting #Slippage #TraderEducation

Amount per trade decides how much capital a bot can place into each trade. That makes it an exposure choice, not a setting to pick last. Before you automate: - Add up capital already committed across open activity - Consider how your strategy may behave across multiple trades - Choose an amount that fits your overall portfolio plan Cornix offers percentage, fixed-amount, and other configured approaches. Pick the approach after you have set your limits. Learn how Amount Per Trade works in the Help Center. https://help.cornix.io/en/articles/5814867-amount-per-trade #CryptoTrading #TradingBots #RiskManagement #TraderEducation

A TradingView alert is an input, not an outcome. Before you enable automation, decide where that alert should go: a preconfigured trade, a signal published for others, or a prompt for manual action. The alert may be the same, but the workflow after it is your choice. Set that destination first so the next step matches your plan. See how TradingView webhook trading bots turn alerts into automated crypto trades. https://cornix.io/the-power-of-tradingview-with-cornix-for-trading-success #TradingView #CryptoTrading #TradingAutomation #TradingSignals

A strong win-rate screenshot is only one snapshot. Before connecting a signal provider to automation, make sure you can understand and test its history, method, and trade instructions. Then check whether those instructions fit your account and automation rules. If you cannot test how a signal would behave before live use, pause before connecting it.
