Hummingbot.io, a premier open-source algorithmic trading project, has made the decision to cooperate with Beaxy Exchange, adapting its software to work with Beaxy seamlessly. Hummingbot’s collaboration with Beaxy will allow users to trade 24/7 with the helpful automation of Hummingbot’s algorithms. Previously, Hummingbot could be downloaded and used separately on a machine, today, Hummingbot released a version that is directly compatible with Beaxy Exchange and will be updated to continue to be supported with Beaxy.
Hummingbot is an automated trader – but it is much more than that. Its smart algorithms are simple enough to design for the newer trader but also complex enough for expert traders to use with great efficiency. It is an open-source program and is free to download and use. The core strategy of the bot enables a trader to function as a market maker on multiple exchanges – put simply, the bot will place both limit buy and limit sell orders for others in the market (termed “takers”) to meet. While there are numerous strategy templates and operating styles, the bottom line is that Hummingbot has removed key barriers to entry for those in crypto who are keen to get their feet wet in algorithmic arbitrage and market-making. Traders can exchange BTC to USD, USD to ETH, ETH to DRGN, DRGN to USD, and dozens of top-performing cryptocurrencies on Beaxy.
Beaxy’s Head of Customer Service, Cooper Craighead, added that “Hummingbot is a great option for both users just starting into bot/algorithmic trading and experienced veterans. It’s easy for anyone to set up, regardless of technical background, but has a depth of configuration options that will allow seasoned traders to tweak strategies to their heart’s content.”
With this integration, Beaxy and Hummingbot forward a shared vision of providing the tools and insight that allow those who trade in crypto to trade profitably. Thanks to the developers, the operation of the bot requires little more than some elementary knowledge of the scripts it uses to trade, so even novice traders can set their parameters and be up and running in less than 15 minutes.
Back in 2017, Beaxy Exchange started out as an exchange that wanted to connect the communities between Cryptocurrency and legacy finance trading. Today, they have grown their company by over 700% and continue to grow in all the right directions. Reflecting on these goals, Beaxy’s digital trading platform comes with many of the advantages of a legacy trading platform. The overall speed between interactions on the platform is faster than many U.S.-based crypto exchanges. The platform also offers automated technical analysis to save traders the legwork while simultaneously offering the entire suite of technical analysis tools for those who prefer to do it themselves. Add these perks to seven advanced order types and Beaxy looks a lot like the ideal set-up for market veterans.
Algorithmic trading programs like Hummingbot fill the last key gap for traders on Beaxy by executing trades around the clock and operating with microsecond instinct based on their set strategy.
