Crypto Trading Bot Strategy Templates (Library): What to Use, When, and Why (2026)
Most traders fail with bots because they pick a strategy that doesn’t match the market regime.
This page is a templates hub. Use it to choose what to build and when to run it.
Template: Trend-following
Use when:
- clear higher-timeframe trend
- volatility is stable-to-high
Avoid when:
- sideways chop dominates
Template: Breakout
Use when:
- compression → expansion
- you can tolerate slippage spikes
Template: Mean reversion
Use when:
- the market ranges
- you have strict risk limits
Mean reversion is where naive backtests lie the most (fills + spread + slippage). Validate aggressively.
Validate templates correctly (crypto rules)
Costs realism
Model fees + spread + slippage (and funding for perps).
Out-of-sample
Walk-forward validate so you don’t curve fit.
Forward proof
Paper trade before live to catch execution surprises.
