How do I know if my crypto trading bot is profitable?

On Aesir you can easily monitor the performance of an individual strategy, as well as the overall performance of your account directly from the Dashboard page. Below is a breakdown of the most important metrics to keep in mind when assessing your account's performance.

Overall Performance

The overall performance of all your running configurations is aggregated at the top of your Dashboard page.

 

 

Profit (all time)

This represents the overall profit of all of your trading bots. It's realized profit meaning that only closed positions are taken into account.

 

Unrealized Profit (all time)

This refers to a Profit or Loss that is currently associated with all open orders across all of your strategies. For instance, let's say one of your crypto trading bots opens a $100 buy order on Bitcoin and Bitcoin goes up by 10% in the next hour. Your Unrealized Profit will now say $10 since you are technically in profit, but have not cashed out yet. Once all the positions close, your unrealized profit will be $0.00 and this will now become Absolute Profit, or simply Profit.

 

30d 60d 90d

The 30, 60, and 90 day cards are snapshots of your combined realized profit for the last 30, 60, and 90 days respectively. They provide a quick overview of your account, allowing you to see a long term pattern.

 

The 90 Day Profit / Loss Chart

 

This chart profits the profit or loss of all of your trades for the last 90 days. It only takes into account PnL generated by closed trades (Realized Profit). It does not take into account deposits or the balance of your trading bots.

 

Individual Strategy Performance

Absolute Profit

When looking at a strategy card (a single crypto trading bot), Absolute Profit refers to a number value and represents how much profit was made. Ie: $233.55 in absolute profit simply means that a particular strategy has generated $233.55in Profit. 

 

Current Balance

This number represents the total trading balance that your trading bot has available to use. It is made up of your initial given balance when you started the strategy, plus any profit/loss that the bot has incurred. Any open orders are also subtracted from the current balance.

 

Relative Profit

On Aesir, Relative profit shows the amount of profit/loss made as a %. Building on the above example, $233.55 of absolute profit means a %57.41 gain (relative profit).

Unrealized Profit

 

This refers to a Profit or Loss that is currently part of an open order and therefore has not been realized yet. For instance, let's say one of your crypto trading bots opens a $100 buy order on Bitcoin and Bitcoin goes up by 10% in the next hour. Your Unrealized Profit will now say $10 since you are technically in profit, but have not cashed out yet. Once all the positions close, your unrealized profit will be $0.00 and this will now become Absolute Profit.

 

Unrealized Relative Profit

Similar to the Relative Profit, the Unrealized Relative Profit simply calculates the gains of your open orders as a %. In the example above, this would say %10
