This will help us set you up with the right Peccala service
Peccala’s Trading Engine uses proprietary algorithms that were developed over five years of R&D led by our CTO, a scientist who is expert in feature engineering.
The Trading Engine brings together unique insights from complexity science, physics, and data science, and is built to be effective in multiple market conditions. It analyzes every available crypto asset (Crypto Futures) once per hour, and assesses the likelihood of price fluctuations becoming larger trends.
We deploy the same Trading Engine in both the High Risk and Medium Risk trading strategies.
The Forecasting Layer:
Analyzes every currency pair available on the Futures market at the exchanges we work with (at the time of writing over 120 pairs)
Looks for market trends in any direction and evaluating the probability of the trend being amplified into larger trends
The actual analysis is based on our unique feature engineering process, which allows us to extract proprietary, meaningful signals from publicly available raw data such as the price, volume, and depth of order book on a particular exchange, as well as historical price trends over different timescales.
The identified features are then fed to classifiers to compute the probability of the trend to be amplified.
A collection of hundreds of trading bots, each of which:
Have different trading “personalities” optimized for different market conditions
Is assigned an equal share of the funds in our trading wallets
Make its own investment decision using their share of the funds
Where two or more bots agree on a position, their trades are pooled into a single position. Where two bots choose to invest in different directions, they cancel each other out.
This is the digital equivalent of a trading floor of 50 traders at a bank, each of which is an expert, and has their own trading strategy. This adds significant robustness to our trades.
The same Trading Engine is deployed on both of our tokenized trading strategies - High Risk (PECH) and Medium Risk (PECM) - both of which are optimized for medium to long term returns.
The trends we analyze are not limited to upward trends. By using derivatives, we can equally benefit from down markets (by going short) and from up markets (by going long)
Our algorithms are totally symmetrical, which means that a market that loses its value by half would be equally profitable as a market that doubles its value
Derivatives give us market neutrality (the above trend independence), but their use requires very specific skills to become profitable
It predicts the probability of an existing trend being amplified
Two things need to be true for our algorithms to make a decision:
1/ A trend must exist already
2/ Our computations must estimate that said trend is going to be amplified.
We don’t “buy the dip” and “sell the rally”. Instead, we buy when prices are high and we expect them to be even higher.

However, any USDT you hold in your Peccala account can be transferred to an external wallet whenever you want.

We trade crypto derivatives, specifically perpetual futures. We currently trade the ~130 currency pairs available in Binance Futures that are settled in USDT.
Each bot has a unique set of parameters and internal rules, but basically, they all try to answer the following questions: Is there a trend? If so, what’s the probability of further trend amplification?
If the assessment is positive and the trend is upwards, the bot chooses to open a long position. If the assessment is positive and the trend is downwards, the bot chooses to open a short position. Upon uncertainty or a negative assessment, the bot does not use the capital and waits for the next assessment.
Each hour, the bots decide if a position is going to be opened, increased, decreased, or closed.
No. Humans are involved only in creating, evaluating, and implementing the strategies. No discretionary decision-making is involved in the trading. The aim is to guarantee that every single trading decision has been thoroughly backtested. Furthermore, we have a policy of zero emotions in the trading decision-making process.
