After using ApiTrade for several weeks, I can now claim that it's a 100% scammy project: I have lost 30% so far in BTC equivalence compared to my initial balance (never look at what their dashboard tells you, it's fabricated to keep you calm and it is completely unrealistic and based on air, but instead look at what the exchange tells you). It seems to be developed by unskilled people, hidden behind nicknames with 0 disclosure about who they are.
The only thing the "bot" is doing is buying tons of coins randomly, and then hodling it, and the team keeps telling their users to wait for the next bull run in order to make profits, while their BTC balance melts like ice under a summer sun and while they conveniently eat fees, which is the only guaranteed thing on their platform. If their bot is just a hodler, well, we can do better ourselves and for free.
Let's not even mention the bugs that keep the bot trading even when you pause it, increasing your losses even further. Some user even questioned the bot's ability when it didn't take profits at +12% on some trades, and then waited for a market reversal while the user watched his losses increase... And all the team said was: "You can close those positions manually when the profits are satisfactory". Really? I mean, REALLY!? So, it's a bot but we have to do its job manually, ourselves!??
When I dared exposing those things publicly on their Telegram group, merely answering other users' concerns (copy of my intervention below), they deleted all my messages, banned me, and even deactivated my account for a while without prior notice. Very professional... NOT. After I posted all of this, other users supported my comments, but I have been banned before being able to take more screenshots.
My best advice: STAY AWAY!![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FYE5hydb.png&t=665&c=lN1FBtNj4Ws2xA)
