Title: Advanced trading strategies possible in crypto?
Post by: Arabella.Theo on May 07, 2018, 12:48:56 PM
There are some advanced trading techniques that I know are being used within the traditional financial markets but are these types of techniques being used in cryptocurrency yet or is the liquidity too shallow?

The techniques I am referring to are

VWAP (volume weighted average price)
Direct level 2 trading and COT (commitments of traders analysis)
Iceberg trading
HFT and Algo bots

Are people using these techniques yet? I assume algo trading is being used already

Everything is useful, however, volumes are so small, and whales have such a big pocket, that all automated trading may cause huge expenses one day. The market is too young, so you can use all instruments, but not in full automatic mode.
