Vision
The DeFi narrative of 'being your own bank' led to a rise in demand for automated investing and trading tools from retail investors. Consequently the algorithmic trading niche has seen rapid development and an increase in facilitating software and platforms, particularly in the innovative crypto space. The emergence of an overwhelmingly wide array of trading tools, data platforms and indicators leads to a disorienting smoke curtain of possibilities, requiring intensive self-education from investors in order to succeed in building the holy grail in finance: a fully automated, tailored trading system generating profits as you walk your dog.
This is where Saignal comes in. Our aim is to connect investors with existing world-class platforms and save them years of learning by providing auomated, layered, premium-quality strategies.



Saignal trade algorithms are structured according to our strategic blueprint: a script comprised of smart, interconnected code blocks each serving a specific function. These code blocks combine conventional as well as proprietary TA indicators, analyzing metrics such as moving averages, trend, momentum, support & resistance, strength, volume, volatility, velocity, price, divergences, ratio's, liquidity and deviations on multiple time frames.

Cyclical & Macro Analysis
Includes analysis of macro trends based on historical asset data (if available). Based on market cap, historical growth curves and logarithmic regression this block extrapolates and projects future moving averages, proximating price potential*. In addition it factors in external macro economic factors such as stock market performance, dollar performance and investor sentiment. For young crypto assets total crypto market cap data may be used.

Market Stage Analysis
This section evaluates sub-trends and identifies accumulation and distribution zones in order to adapt with adequate trading behavior.

Transitional Signals
Inter-stage transitions in markets may yield transitional buy or sell signals, closing or opening positions in order to free up liquidity to face imminent market conditions.

Market Health
Assesses if a market does not show signs of liquidity or extremes in volume or volatility. Unstable markets may prevent buy or sell signals in order to limit tail risk.

Alert Indicator Pool
Activates the strategy to look for potential imminent buying or selling entries, based on momentum or deviations.

Triggers Indicator Pool
If an alert is given, the algorithm will look for confirmation of other categorical indicators, in order to validate an alert.

Confirmation Indicator Pool
If both the alert en confirmation indicators flash green, a Trigger Indicator on a smaller timeframe will ultimately place a limit buy order.
