Bot Creator Appreciation Score

Since the activation of the RevenYOU Trade-Bots-Platform, about just one year ago, imago, reputation and specific qualifications are more important than ever before.
On 19 May 2021 there was a Bitcoin crash and subsequently a crash of the whole crypto-market. This was the first important crash since the lifetime of the Bots platform.

During the weeks after the crash we launched a poll:
How crash-proof are Bot Creator Bots Poll? (described in this post).
Within a few weeks, this Poll showed a trend.
Out of the 28 (now 32) Bot Creators the Top-5 of them got all the casted votes.

A good reason to be able to score the Bot Creators with more nuance than a single number. This appreciation score is about overall quality and has been introduced in the “Bot Creators table” on the Bots Institute website under Menu Technology.

BOT CREATORS Appreciation Score (AS)
Bot Creators table with Appreciation Score (AS)

Appreciation Score (AS)

The following properties or qualities of Bot Creators and their Bots, will be used to create the score.

+++++, 00000, – – – – –
= Positive, unknown or not relevant, Negative.

E.g. +++ 00 or – 0 – 0 +  etc.

The weight of the, currently 5, AS-indicators are very different values per item-set.
The values per distinct item is very personal. Something that you must take into account during your selection and balancing process.

Of course this Appreciation Score is not exact science.
However it should give you an extra handle during your selection and spreading of Bots.
The score is dynamic and will be frequently updated to reflect the actual states.

Boosting Alpha trading-Bots performance per May 2021

Boosting Alpha May 2021

And again our end-of-month overview of all our trading bots.
The month of May turned out to be a very bad month for the crypto market with the Bitcoin declining with 35% and most other coins declining even more.

The average result of our trading bots was -8,31%. This was definitely the most negative month for our bots since we went live in January 2020 (the Corona crash from March 2020 did not have any impact on the 2 bots that we had live back then).

Among the negative performers were a lot of the HODL trading bots which look at the long-term only and only rebalance once every 2 weeks. If we look at the return in EUR, the EUR decline was higher with -16,51%, which was obviously higher because of the bots which have a BTC basecoin (Dagobert Buck bots + Hirundo).

Interesting to see is that there were also some bots which still had a very positive month of May as well with Roar of the Tiger at the top.

How crash-proof are Bots?

“How crash-proof are Bots?
How will RevenYOU BOTS behave in a Bear-market?”

On the social media this was a  frequently asked question. The problem is that it needs time to draw such conclusions. Now curiously,  during exactly the first anniversary week of BOTS, we can now begin answer this question.
Why? Because during the first year of existence of the BOTS-Platform all went relatively smoothly, bullish or stable. Actually often with extreme yields.

Bots 1st anniversary week 2021

On the 19 May 2021  there was  a crash of BitcoinBitcoin and subsequently the whole crypto market.
How did the Bots survive, perform and recover?

We have created a Poll to rank individual Bots Creators for their crash-proof level. At this Creator level, because we already have a Bots Popularity Polls at the Bot level. Depending on how important you judge this aspect of performance-security, it can be a determining factor in this Poll.

Especially investors and traders who entered the market only recently, say this year, were shocked to see the volatility of Bitcoin (BTC) and many altcoins. Value and prices crashed by 50% or even more. This was a good opportunity to see how Bots behave specifically at the Creator level.  Was the damage limited or not, and how went performance recovery. This of course is valuable information for investors, new and experienced.

How crash-proof,  that is safe or secure are Bots produced by the diverse Bot Creators. This is where the Poll is all about. Some Bots have performed very well some even extremely well. However this is the time to prove if they are crash-proof or not at all. And how important is that to you and your cryptocurrency portfolio.

The first crash-proof Poll on 28 May 2021 has now some meat on the bone, with 53 voters and 104 choices, and can now be used to draw workable conclusions.

Total of 104 recorded votes by 53 voters for this poll on 28 May 2021

Of the 28 Bot Creators the top 5 have almost all the votes. The remaining developers or producers have only one or no votes.

  • The number 1 is Agga Team Bots (AB), by far the best reputation with regard being crash-proof.
  • The number 2 and 3 being one of the oldest producers is  Boosting Alpha (BA) and the BA trademark The Noogleman (TN).
  • The number 4 is Atmos (AM) and is one of the new Creators with currently  6 Bots. Three dated before the crash and 3 after the crash date.
  • Altrady (AT), also an “older” producers, with many non-USDT basecoin Bots.

Depending on your portfolio involvement, passive and even defensive, average or active and even aggressive, the Creator choice is important. Apart of the Risk Classification (RC) per Bot, this poll may be useful for you and other investors, in combination with the Bots Popularity Polls.

 

Profile: The Machinist (TM), Bots-Creator.

I am The Machinist. My academic background is in Artificial Intelligence (AI), but my personal background is financial trading systems. With AI you might be thinking about an intelligent super system that flawlessly reads the market. However the real catch is reading the intelligence that is found in the market. Humans, human behaviour.

We try to extract human behaviour from the markets movements. We actually believe human greed and fear is a constants and trigger when the environmental variables are well defined. This can be approached as an offset from a norm. We try to use this insight and define these norms in the market.

This has actually been successfully implemented for some crypto coins with the St34m Engine, a Bot currently contesting in the BOTS League.

Every person has its own beliefs related to trading and cryptocurrency. We try to move towards these beliefs by developing multiple Bot-series. So far there are three typical algorithm: the Long Term Investing (LTI) series, the Outperforming and Reinvesting (OAR) series, and the Momentum Swinger (3-Way enhanced RSI) series.

The LTI series tries to follow the trend of a coin while staying out of risk, but with the goal of following the long term trend. The OAR series tries to buy low and sell high, while keeping the long term trend in mind. The Momentum Swinger series is more focused on small trends rather than the long trend and can handle down trends.
While our goal is to only produce good algorithms the markets can sometimes, even for us, act strange. By choosing to follow one or more series you know exactly the intention behind your Bot of choice. That is your way of implementing your beliefs about the market.

To further stimulate the thought process and decision making of more technical or curious users we choose to provide you with showcases of our algorithms. Every above mentioned series can be seen applied on real life charts. In this way you can see how your Bot handles different situations. To reduce confidential exposure however, timestamps and prices have been removed. We thank you for your understanding.

More bots from the Momentum Swinger series are on their way, as well as a whole new category.

Thank you for traveling with The Machinist, we hope you have a smooth ride.

Profile: Boosting Alpha (BA) brand update: Illuminati

Today we put our first trading algorithm live under our new brand “Illuminati”.
Illuminati is the name of a secret society founded in 1776 in Bavaria, Germany that still today is linked to ruling the world as a sort of “fourth power”. The name Illuminati refers to the very secret society of quant developers that have been powering winning trading teams around the world in the last 10 to 20 years.

BA-Illuminati
BA-Illuminati brand

Quant algorithms have been powering Flow Traders, Optiver and IMC in the Netherlands, but also internationally firms like Rentech, Citadel, DE Shaw, Two Sigma, AQR and others. The core of these trading algorithms is built by a small, very global but high calibre group of quant developers.

Illuminati is now our fifth brand of trading algoritms, together with Boosting Alpha, The Noogieman, Dagobert Buck and Team Dakar. We aim to launch an additional 10 to 20 new trading algorithms under this new brand in the next 2 to 3 months.
