WHAT IS AUTOTRADING AND HOW DOES IT WORK?

Autotrading, or automated trading, has transformed how traders engage with financial markets—by combining technology with proven strategies to deliver fast, efficient, and consistent results. At SmartFX Bot, we offer both Self-Hosted and Fully Managed autotrading solutions to suit all types of investors—from hands-on learners to hands-off investors. This guide breaks down how autotrading works and how you can get started with the SmartFX Bot system that fits you best.

UNDERSTANDING AUTOTRADING

Autotrading uses software to automatically execute trades based on predefined rules. These systems—called Expert Advisors (EAs)—analyze live market data, identify trade setups, and place buy or sell orders without requiring constant user input.

The biggest advantage? It removes the need for manual trading and allows you to tap into opportunities 24/5—even while you sleep.

HOW AUTOTRADING WORKS

Algorithm Development

At the core is a trading algorithm designed to follow proven strategies.

Back testing

These strategies are rigorously tested against historical data to measure performance and refine entries and exits.

Setup

Whether self-hosted or managed, a proper setup ensures the system runs smoothly.

Execution

Your EA monitors the market and executes trades based on your strategy—all automatically.

Monitoring

For self-hosted users, ongoing monitoring and optimization are part of the process. For managed solutions, our team handles everything.
