Moontrader is more than just a terminal for manual or algorithmic crypto trading - it's a complete ecosystem for traders who want to be efficient and conscious. Whether you are new to the platform or have just downloaded the terminal, this article will guide you through five powerful features designed to enhance your experience and optimize your trading performance.

Performance Filters: control the results and actions of the algorithm

Perfomance Filter

Moontrader's Performance Filters allow you to adjust the behavior of your algorithm based on its trading results. You can apply them to all running algorithms, specific trading pairs, the current algorithm or any other algorithm of your choice. These filters act as triggers for stopping or starting algorithms and can be used as an additional auto-stop mechanism.

Here are two simple use cases:

  • Set up an automatic stop if the algorithm loses 5% in two hours - or conversely, lock in your profits.
  • Set up an automatic action based on price delta (Δ Price %), which is the total of your trading results, shown as a percentage. For example, you can start the algorithm when the total profit over the last 30 minutes is greater than 2% to benefit from an upward trend. Or, to prevent losses,you can stop trading if the losses over the last 30 minutes are greater than 3%. 

* The values are just an example, not a recommendation.

Blocking newly listed coins 

Blacklist

The listing of a new coin often means chaos, and not everyone wants to be a part of it. Prices can skyrocket or crash unpredictably, and there's usually no clear pattern for entering the market. To protect your capital, Moontrader includes an option to automatically block newly listed coins from trading. And it only takes two simple steps to activate it:

  1. Go to the core settings and check the box labelled "Add new coins to the core blacklist after listing".
  2. Set the block time (up to 24 hours). 

How does it work? During set time, the new coin will remain on the core blacklist. After, the coin becomes available to trade. Depending on your algorithm settings, it may be added as a new trading pair. This simple automation can prevent you from entering into trades with unpredictable assets and protect your deposit from unnecessary exposure.

Automatic increase of the leverage

Leverage

If you do want to trade a newly listed coin right away, Moontrader has a smart way to automate your strategy: The Automatic Leverage Adjustment.

When this feature is enabled, Moontrader will automatically set the maximum leverage for newly listed assets. This helps you take full advantage of the intense volatility that often accompanies listings. You can enable this feature in the core settings - just a few clicks and you're set for maximum efficiency.

How does it work? As soon as a new coin is listed, your Core will switch to the highest possible leverage if the option is enabled. This tool is ideal for advanced traders who want to capitalize on short-term volatility with precision and speed.

This feature applies not only to new coins, but also to all assets. For instance, if the maximum leverage of any pair changes on the Exchange, the Core will automatically adjust it.

Quick access to charts in TradingView

Trading View

Most traders use TradingView for market analysis and charting. Moontrader makes this process even easier by allowing you to open the chart of a specific coin in TradingView directly from the terminal - no manual searching required.

Here is how it works:

  • Open a tab with the coin you're analysing.
  • Right-click on the coin's name.
  • Select the option to open it in TradingView.

This small but powerful feature saves you valuable time - especially when you're actively trading and analysing the market at the same time.

Emulation mode: practice and test strategies with zero risk

Emuation Mode / Paper Trading

Emulator Mode in Moontrader allows you to test algorithms and manual trades without risking your real money. All trading takes place within the terminal and no real orders are sent to the exchange.

Important to know:

  • The emulator ignores the book position and processes all orders equally.
  • No data exchange or fees are taken into account in this mode, so performance data and results won't accurately reflect real trading conditions.
  • As orders aren't sent to the exchange, you don't risk being banned from the API due to frequent requests. However, don't forget to respect exchange limits when switching back to live trading.

If you are looking to test a strategy or practice your trading skills, you can start with the Emulator. Once your setup is optimised, you can move on to real trading with greater confidence.

Trading is about attention to detail. Moontrader offers a wide range of tools that together make your strategy more reliable, efficient and flexible. Use these features to not only improve your results, but to enjoy the trading process even more.
