Trades when one side of the order book significantly outweighs the other.
Dual-signal confirmation. The bot never trades on imbalance alone - every entry requires both order book imbalance and price momentum to align, reducing false signals.
How It Works
1
Monitors order book in real time
2
Detects significant imbalance between bid and ask sides
3
Confirms with price momentum
4
Enters position in the direction of imbalance
5
Exits on signal reversal, take-profit, stop-loss, or time limit
The strategy combines order book imbalance and price momentum signals to identify short-term directional opportunities.
Best suited for volatile markets. The Imbalance Bot thrives in active markets with frequent order flow shifts - higher volatility means more trading opportunities.
Risk Profiles
Three risk profiles are available - Conservative, Balanced, and Aggressive - each with tuned parameters for entry sensitivity, cooldown between trades, and minimum hold time.
Risk Management
Each position is protected by a stop-loss, take-profit, and maximum hold time. The stop-loss dynamically tightens over the lifetime of the trade to lock in gains.
Set a Max Loss. The Max Loss parameter acts as a hard circuit breaker - once hit, the bot stops trading for the session. Always configure this to cap your downside.
