Preparing for Altcoin Season: Tradeium's Strategy Optimization

As altcoin season approaches, it's more important than ever to ensure our trading systems are aligned with evolving market conditions. That’s why we’re excited to announce a significant optimization to Tradeium’s dual-momentum trading system, now upgraded to TrendBot 2.0 and MarginBot 2.0. This update is driven by the latest market data and developments, setting the stage for better performance in the upcoming altcoin season.

Why Optimizations Are Necessary

The cryptocurrency market is constantly evolving. In recent years, we've witnessed significant shifts—institutions have entered the space, adding more liquidity, introducing more coins, and reducing volatility. Amidst these changes, one factor remains constant: human emotions of fear and greed. These timeless drivers continue to influence market behavior, and our strategy is built to capitalize on them.

This marks the first large-scale optimization since Tradeium’s launch in 2019. While we’ve made smaller adjustments along the way, this is our first major enhancement. Going forward, we may introduce similar large updates every few years as needed. Minor tweaks, such as versions 2.1, 2.2, and beyond, may be rolled out automatically to keep our strategy finely tuned without requiring user intervention.

Preventing Over-Optimization

To ensure our strategy remains resilient, we’ve implemented robustness testing to avoid over-optimization, which can cause misalignment with future market conditions. While market cycles will change, the core philosophy of our dual-momentum strategy remains the same. For MarginBot, we use a triple-momentum approach, which provides an additional layer of precision in capturing market trends. Since fear and greed are intrinsic human emotions, we’re confident that this updated approach will continue to deliver strong results.

After Switching to 2.0

We highly recommend upgrading to TrendBot 2.0 and MarginBot 2.0, as this optimization is designed to enhance performance during the altcoin season. Once offered, you can easily make the switch from your Portfolio page under Bot Settings, where you'll see an option to "Update to Tradeium 2.0." This will apply the updated strategy for the selected subaccount, and you’ll need to repeat this for any additional subaccounts you may have.

Here’s what you can expect after the upgrade:

• Optimized Strategy: The updated strategies will apply to both TrendBot 2.0 and MarginBot 2.0, positioning you to take full advantage of the upcoming altcoin season.
• Chart Reset: Your current charts will be archived, and the new chart will start fresh at 1.0. This also resets your ATH (All-Time High) to 1.0, meaning future gains will be subject to performance fees. Your old charts will remain accessible under the Dashboard or Settings.
• ATH Reset: Your ATH will reset to 1.0 when the new chart is created, with an annual reset scheduled to start on January 1, 2026. Performance fees may be adjusted based on market conditions, with the potential for reductions during bear markets.
• Irreversible Update: Once you've upgraded to Version 2.0, there will be no option to revert to the original version.
• HODL Portfolio Changes: The HODL portfolio under your Spot Account will be removed. However, you can create a subaccount on Binance specifically for your HODL tokens.
• USDT Slider: A new USDT slider under TrendBot 2.0 allows you to allocate a portion of your Spot Account to USDT. For instance, you can choose to move 50% of your holdings to USDT while the remaining 50% is managed by TrendBot 2.0.

Looking Ahead

We believe these updates will position both Tradeium and our users for success as we enter altcoin season and beyond. Our team is committed to guiding you through the ever-changing crypto landscape and helping you maximize your potential gains.
