Trading bots don't fail because of code, they fail because of poor risk logic. Automation enforces discipline, it does not generate profits.
At Beleaf, Telegram bots are structured, controllable systems. Telegram is your control panel, not your brain. It lets you act fast, reduce risk, and monitor trades in real-time.
Risk: Position sizing and stop rules
Execution: Orders on the exchange
Telegram: Alerts, commands, monitoring
Keep Telegram as the control layer, not the strategy layer.
Show positive long-term results
Stay stable on fresh data
Keep drawdowns under 15%
Have a Sharpe ratio above 1.2
Avoid “fast-profit” strategies with large drawdowns; automation magnifies both gains and losses.
Telegram alerts fire instantly
Position size reduces automatically
/pause_trading can stop all trades
Takeaway: Avoiding all losses is impossible, but you can stop losses from becoming catastrophic.
Pairs Trading—Short-term overreactions
Event-Based – Volatility spikes or news events
Essential Commands: /pause_trading, /close_all_positions, /reduce_risk, /daily_report
Avoid prediction-based or constantly changing strategies; they rarely survive automation.
Avoid complex indicators, AI, or high-frequency trading
Good trading equals control plus patience
Automation enforces discipline
Risk rules matter more than entries
Simple systems often outperform complex ones
“If your bot cannot explain why it trades or when it stops, it should not trade.”
