Placing a Position#

In this section of the documentation, we will go through the process of placing your position. On the Cleo Trading Platform, you can place your position on Manual Trade, Smart Trade, backtest your strategy via the Backtesting tool, and automate your strategy via Automated Loop.

In Smart Trading, you are able to create your own custom entry and exit conditions by typing or simply selecting from the data-rich dropdown and automating your trading setups via Automated Loop.

You are also able to backtest your automated trading strategies before actually deploying them live.

You can do further customization for each condition by editing its parameters in terms of period, time frame, inheriting an asset, etc, and more.  After creating your conditions, the Asset Management tool lets you define your leverage and initial margin, and you can set multiple stop losses and take profits.

In Manual Trading, you can define your leverage and initial margin, and you can set multiple stop losses and take profits and place your trades instantly.

We will be covering all those in detail throughout the documentation.

Visualize and Modify

Once you set your position, you are able to view and modify it right on the chart if you like.

Manual Trading#

In Manual Trading, you can trade an asset using Market order, with up to 4 Take Profit and 4 Stop Loss orders.

null
Position Type Switcher – select if you want to buy/go long or sell/go short with your position

You can switch your position to either long or short position. Then you can set your volume and protections. You can also get started instantly with the predefined Manual Trading templates. You can use them right away or edit for the way you want to.

In Manual Trading, you don’t create entry and exit conditions like in Smart Trading. Your position opens immediately and your position is closed by your stop losses and take profits.

Manual Trade guide gif

You can find detailed information about how to set your volume and protections in the Asset Management section.

Smart Trading#

In this part of the documentation, we are going to be mentioning the Smart Trading.

Cleo.finance Smart Trading guide gif

In Smart Trading, you are able to create your custom entry and exit conditions from a data-rich dropdown menu. You can either create your conditions by simple typing or you can select them on the dropdown menu.

With Smart Trading, you can create your own custom trading bots instantly. There are 2 options in the Smart Trade automation:

  • Only Once: This option allows you to automate your ideal Smart Trading setup to be triggered only once when your conditions are met.
  • Loop: Loop feature allows you to automate your trading setup perpetually and lets you analyze your Loop strategy’s performance with its extensive statistics. You are also able to replay your Loop’s position history via the Position Replay tool.
Conditions rules Smart Trading cleo.finance
Here you can copy the rule for the next line and customize it or you can delete it completely and create a new one.
This is where you are able to add an additional condition.
By clicking the templates, you can choose any predefined conditions templates.

Your conditions can be customized further when you click on them. You can adjust their periods, exchange, asset, and time frame.

Smart Trading conditions editing

Important: Please keep in mind that, the smart trading size is calculated from the realized balance, not from the available balance.

What does this mean for you?

Some of your position might not get opened because of not having enough balance which means that in the meantime some other positions could be opened and this will result in changes in your balance.

As a simple example:

Let’s say that you have 2 smart positions. They both have 600 USDT of position sizes and you have 1000 USDT in your balance in total.

One of those smart positions opens and your new balance will be 400 USDT. This will result in not having enough balance for your other position with a 600 USDT position size and your second position won’t be able to open.

Automated Loop#

The Automated Loop feature lets you automate your smart trades instantly. You can also switch your Smart Trade to Automated Loop by switching to “Loop” from “Only Once” on the Smart Trade page.

“Only Once” set your smart trades to be triggered only one time automatically when your conditions are met.

Creating Automated Loop

Switching your Smart Trade to the Loop allows your smart trade conditions to be triggered perpetually. The Loop feature lets you create and automate your best custom trading conditions without a single line of coding.

You can always view and monitor the performance of your loop right on the dashboard. You can view the detailed statistics about your Loop strategy and gather important insights.

Loop Statistics cleo.finance
You can either stop your loop immediately or you can simple duplicate it by clicking the three dots.
Here you can see your Loop settings. Your selected asset, time frame, entry&exit conditions, etc.
Here you can find the statistics about your Loop strategy’s performance.
In this part,  you view your all position history along with their information.

With the position replay tool, you can replay every position that your loop strategy has.

  • Previewing your position’s statistics from beginning to end
  • Seeing which and how your conditions are fulfilled
  • Changing the speed and timeframe of the replay
  • And more.

Here is an example on how to use them together:

Conditions templates and asset management templates are being used together

There are 10 conditions templates in total. Here we will be mentioning each of them one by one.

1. Lower Bollinger Band® cross

This setup opens long (buy) position when price closes below lower band of the Bollinger Band® and exits when price closes above the upper band. Bollinger Bands® is set at 2 standard deviations from the 20-day SMA.

This setup does not work well in trending markets, but profits in ranging markets. You can change the deviation, the SMA settings, the timeframe or add/edit any other condition to this template.

2. Upper Bollinger Band® cross

This setup opens short (sell) position when price closes above upper band of the Bollinger Band® and exits when price closes below the lower band. Bollinger Bands® is set at 2 standard deviations from the 20-day SMA.

This setup does not work well in trending markets, but profits in ranging markets. You can change the deviation, the SMA settings, the timeframe or add/edit any other condition to this template.

3. Uptrend with EMA, PSAR, MACD

This setup opens long (buy) position when price is above EMA(21), Parabolic SAR and when MACD line is above Signal line all on 1-hour timeframe. Parabolic SAR and MACD indicators both have default settings.

This setup profits in uptrending market conditions, should be avoided in ranging markets. You can change the timeframe to fit your preferences.

4. Downtrend with EMA, PSAR, MACD

This setup opens short (sell) position when price is below EMA(21), Parabolic SAR and when MACD line is below Signal line all on 1-hour timeframe. Parabolic SAR and MACD indicators both have default settings.

This setup profits in downtrending market conditions, should be avoided in ranging markets. You can change the timeframe to fit your preferences.

5. Moving average Golden Cross

This setup opens long (buy) position when Simple Moving average (SMA) of period 50 is crossing up SMA of period 200. This event is referred to as a Golden Cross. The exit conditions are set up to be faster: when Price is crossing down SMA(50).

You can change the timeframe or length of each moving average, or even the way it is calculated (Simple, Exponential, Hull, Kaufman Adaptive,…) to make the setup more responsive to current market movements.

6. Moving average Death Cross

This setup opens short (sell) position when Simple Moving average (SMA) of period 50 is crossing down SMA of period 200. This event is referred to as a Death Cross. The exit conditions are set up to be faster: when Price is crossing up the SMA(50).

You can change the timeframe or length of each moving average, or even the way it is calculated (Simple, Exponential, Hull, Kaufman Adaptive,…) to make the setup more responsive to current market movements.

7. Upturn momentum with RSI, SMA

This setup opens long (buy) position when Relative Strength Index (RSI) of period 14 gains 20% in a single hour, but is still not in overbought territory, and when Price is above Simple Moving average (SMA) of period 50. The exit condition is focused on getting us out of the position as close to the top of the move as possible using MACD line crossing the Signal line.

You can change the timeframe or length of the moving average, or even the way it is calculated (Simple, Exponential, Hull, Kaufman Adaptive,…), or the RSI look-back period to make the setup more responsive to current market movements.

8. Downturn momentum with RSI, SMA

This setup opens short (sell) position when Relative Strength Index (RSI) of period 14 drops by 20% in a single hour, but is still not in oversold territory, and when Price is below Simple Moving average (SMA) of period 50. The exit condition is focused on getting us out of the position as close to the bottom of the move as possible using MACD line crossing the Signal line.

You can change the timeframe or length of the moving average, or even the way it is calculated (Simple, Exponential, Hull, Kaufman Adaptive,…), or the RSI look-back period to make the setup more responsive to current market movements.

9. Upward Momentum

This simple setup opens long (buy) position when Price makes at least 1% move up within a single hour. The exit condition is set for a bearish Hanging Man Candle, but it is strongly suggested to pair this template with layered Asset Management strategy – with multiple Take Profit orders.

10. Downward Momentum

This simple setup opens short (sell) position when Price makes at least 1% move down within a single hour. The exit condition is set for a bullish Hammer Candle, but it is strongly suggested to pair this template with layered Asset Management strategy – with multiple Take Profit orders.

Position Warnings#

Asset Management#

The Asset Management section allows you to set many crucial position attributes.

In this section of documentation you will find all needed to understand how to utilize Cleo’s unique options to maximize your trading performance.

Throughout the Asset Management section, we use the “target” icon.

Since in the Advanced mode you are allowed to see all 4 methods of data input at the same time, you need to set which one is the main method of calculation. The remaining three options are only approximated and visualized for you.

Asset Management cleo.finance
Currently, you can only use Market Order. Limit and stop will be added in the future.
Leverage setting via a slider or direct value, limits are taken from the exchange, as well as the max. leverage position limit.
The “target” icon – Determines the data input as the main method of calculation. The remaining three options are only approximated and visualized for you. You can pick any data input out of four as a target.

The values without the target icon are only approximations at the time. The values can change.

For Manual Trading, the approximations can be quite close to actual values considering that you open your position immediately rather than waiting for entry conditions to be met.

For Smart Trading, the approximations can vary from the actual values when your position is opened. This is mainly because the smart position has entry and exit conditions. Your entry conditions can take time to be met which could result in the difference between the approximations and the values when your position is opened.

There are some readily available templates that you can use.
You can preview them, pick them, and even customize them the way you want.

Order Types#

You can pick 3 order types on the Cleo Trading Platform and those are market, limit and stop orders.

  • Market Order: Opens&Closes orders at the current market price.
  • Limit Order: Opens&Closes orders at the price you specify or better.
  • Stop Order: Opens&Closes orders once the traded pair reaches a specified price. It is also known as the stop price.
Order Types on cleo.finance

In Manual Trading, you are not able to pick your close order type. This is because, in Manual Trading, your position is closed by the protections you have rather than having exit conditions.

On the other hand, since you have exit conditions present in Smart Trading, you are able to pick your close order type.

cleo.finance order type

Currently, you can only pick the market order type. You can see limit order and stop order are present but they are not selectable. That’s because limit order and stop order will be available for you to pick in the future.

Templates#

There are some readily available templates that you can use in the Asset Management section. You just need to click the “Templates” button on the right corner of the asset management. Here is a visual guide:

You can preview them, pick them, and even customize them the way you want.

Volume#

Volume is a part of Asset Management. In this part of the documentation, you will find important attributes related to your position size, leverage, and calculation regards to your balance.

cleo.finance Asset Management Volume settings
In the information field, you will see information about your available account, initial margin, remaining balance, and estimated liquidation price.
You can set your desired leverage either by sliding or typing the value.
You can set your margin/Initial margin via a slider or you can type in numbers.

In the volume section, you can set your desired leverage with a slider or typing the value.

IMPORTANT: The maximum allowed leverage you can set depends on the pairs and connected exchange or broker.

If you like to check the leverage amounts, you are allowed to on Binance. Please check this link: https://www.binance.com/en/futures/trading-rules/perpetual/leverage-margin

Asset Management Volume settings cleo.finance

The initial margin is the amount of money that you need in order to open a buy or sell-on position. Considering the example from the screenshot: You can buy 1,000 USDT with an initial margin of 100 USDT(with 10x Leverage) while your initial position size is 1% of your available balance.

You can set your margin/Initial margin via slider or typing in numbers on the set margin part or you can also type your initial margin in terms of the percentage of your available balance.

You can set your position size in the same way you set your initial margin.

Position size is calculated as:

Position size= Your Leverage*Your initial margin(set margin)

For instance: when your leverage is 10x and your initial margin is 100 USDT then your position will be 1000 USDT.

cleo.finance Asset Management Volume settings
You can define your initial margin in terms of % of your available balance.
Here you can define your initial margin in terms of your quote currency.
Here, you can define your initial margin in terms of your base currency.

As we mentioned about the target icon in the asset management part, you can set the target icons in the volume part.

For instance, when you set your target as the initial margin, it chooses the initial margin and position size as a main method of calculation. That means the entered value of your initial margin value will stay locked even though your available balance changes while you are waiting for your position to be filled.

The values without the target icon are only approximations at the time. The values can change.

For Manual Trading, the approximations can be quite close to actual values considering that you open your position immediately rather than waiting for entry conditions to be met.

For Smart Trading, the approximations can vary from the actual values when your position is opened. This is mainly because the smart position has entry and exit conditions. Your entry conditions can take time to be met which could result in the difference between the approximations and the values when your position is opened.

Common Errors

  • Insufficient available balance. Create smaller position or increase your balance.

    When you receive this error, there can be 2 reasons:

    1. You don’t have enough balance in your exchange account to open your position.
    2. The initial margin you set is more than the available balance in your exchange account.
  • The exchange limits the minimum initial margin size to

    You receive this error for 2 reasons:

    1. You cannot set your initial margin size any negative number or zero.
    2. You don’t meet the minimum initial margin size requirements. The initial margin size requirements can vary according to exchange accounts and the trading pairs you want to trade.
  • The exchange limits the minimum position size to

    Your required minimum position size is determined by your connected exchange account and the trading pairs of your choice.

  • The exchange limits the maximum position size to

    Your allowed maximum position size is determined by your connected exchange account and the trading pairs of your choice.

  • The minimum leverage is 1x

    This basically means that the allowed minimum leverage is 1x and it cannot be smaller than 1x.

  • The exchange limits the maximum leverage for this asset to

    On the leverage part of the volume section, the leverage range can be shown between 1x-125x but the maximum amount of leverage you can set is determined by your exchange and the trading pairs you selected.

Take Profit#

In this section of the document, you will find;
What is Take Profit?
How to set your Take Profits?
How are the parameters calculated?
The warning messages and their explanations.

A take-profit order is a trading strategy that specifies a certain price level above the purchase price, which is chosen by the trader.

If the price of a security reaches that level, it will automatically trigger a close of the position. If the price does not reach that level, then the order will not be acted on.

On Cleo Trading Platform, you are able to set more than one Take Profits.

Cleo.finance protections settings in basic and advanced mode
There are two modes available Basic mode and Advance mode as we mentioned in the Asset Management section.
  • In the Basic Mode, you will be able to select which data input you want to set your Take Profit.
Take Profit basic mode cleo.finance
  • In the Advanced Mode, you are allowed to see all 4 methods of data input at the same time.
    When clicking the target icon on the parameters, it is set to be the main method of calculation. The remaining three options are only approximated and visualized for you.
Adding multiple take profits cleo.finance

Calculation of data inputs on Take Profit

Multiple take profits on cleo.finance
The market price is being calculated as:</p> <p style='text-align: left;'><strong>Current Market Price*(1+(PnL/Position Size)</strong></p> <p>
The PnL/Position size is calculated as;</p> <p><strong>PnL/(Position size*Quantity)</strong>
PnL is calculated as;</p> <p><strong>PnL=(Position Size*Quantity)*PnL/Position Size </strong>
<strong>PnL/Available</strong>, this input basically shows your PnL on your Take Profit in terms of percentage to your available balance.
Here in this row, you can see the sum of PnL and PnL/Available Balance for multiple Take Profits.

Common Error Messages

  • The Quantity of all your Take Profit orders must equal 100%

    The sum of your all take profits’ quantity should be equal to 100%. So that means if you have:

    One take profit; then the quantity should be equal to 100%.

    Two take profit; then the sum of Take Profit 1 and Take Profit 2 quantities should be equal to 100%. You can customize the quantities of each take profit via a slider or by just typing in numbers.

  • The Market Price cannot be less than

    This basically means that you cannot set the market price of your take profit less than zero and it cannot be lower than the current market price.

  • The Market Price cannot be more than

    This error message means that the market price you want to set for your take profit cannot be more than what your exchange account allows.

  • The initial Take Profit cannot be the same as current Market Price

    In this error message, it means that the market price of your take profit and the current market price for the pair you want to trade cannot be the same.

  • The initial Take Profit cannot be lower than the Open Price

    You will receive this error message when you set your market price lower than the initial market price when you are in a long position.
    Let’s assume the current market price for BTC/USDT is 47,000 USDT so this means that you cannot set the market price for your take profit lower or equal to 47,000 USDT

  • The initial Take Profit cannot be higher than the Open Price

    You will receive this error message when you set your market price higher than the initial market price when you are in a short position.
    Let’s assume the current market price for BTC/USDT is 47,000 USDT so this means that you cannot set the market price for your take profit higher or equal to 47,000 USDT

  • The PnL of this Take Profit cannot be 0

    You receive this message when you set your PnL and PnL/Available balance to 0.

A stop-loss order helps you limit your risk on a trade. It’s an order that exits your trade once its price reaches a specified level. It serves as protection from excessive losses.

On Cleo Trading Platform, you can set up to set 4 Stop Loss orders.

Stop loss basic vs advance mode

Just like in Take Profit, you can use Stop Losses with either Advance mode or Basic mode.

On the Advance Mode, you can set any of the four data input as your target by clicking the target icon which will choose that data input as the main method of calculation.

Common Errors Messages

  • The Quantity of all your Stop Loss orders must equal 100%

    The sum of your all stop losses should be equal to 100%. So that means if you have:
    One stop loss; then the quantity should be equal to 100%.
    Two stop losses; then the sum of Stop Loss 1 and Stop Loss 2 quantities should be equal to 100%. You can customize the quantities of each stop loss via a slider or by just typing in numbers.

  • The initial Stop Loss cannot be the same as current Market Price

    In this error message, it means that the market price of your stop loss and the current market price for the pair you want to trade cannot be the same.

  • The initial Stop Loss cannot be higher than the Open Price

    You will receive this error message when you set your market price higher than the current market price when you are in a long position.

    You will receive this error message when you set your market price lower than the initial market price when you are in a short position.
