Binance has scheduled a Spot API update: no service impact expected

Binance is one of our most popular exchanges, so in case you didn’t see it, we’re posting an update Binance announced for their Spot API for June 18, 2024 at 05:00 UTC.

A few traders reached out to ask if this update will impact their use of 3Commas or if it requires them to do anything to prepare, fortunately no action is required.

As a reminder, any planned or unplanned maintenance that may affect 3Commas traders will be posted on our 3Commas Status Page - where you can subscribe to receive email notifications, too!

You can find the full announcement here
In our weekly updates, we’re going to focus on big news in the crypto industry. This includes news about regulatory changes, big price movements, and interesting new tools and projects.

Let's take a look at this week’s updates:

1.- Bitcoin ETFs Records $200m Outflows: The U.S listed spot bitcoin ETF records $200m in outflows, the second consecutive day of outflows driven by Grayscale's GBTC without any inflows.

Why it matters: ETFs experiencing net outflows higher than inflows can reflect a lack of investor confidence. However, given how new these funds are, it is possible some investors are pulling funds to invest in distressed assets in other markets.

2.- Polygon to Unlock 1B Tokens through new Grants program: Polygon has launched a new grant program to reward 1B tokens over the next 10 yrs to Polygon chain builders.

Why it matters: Polygon is promising to reward builders who add value to their ecosystem. So while they’ll be diluting the coin supply somewhat, in theory the value added to Polygon as a functional service should push up the price more than the increase in supply will lower it.

3.- Ireland Central Bank Grants VASPs License to Crypto.com: Central Bank of Ireland has granted virtual assets providers License to Crypto.com allowing it to offer crypto-to-fiat services.

Why it matters: Every time another crypto company gains official acceptance into the financial system of any country, it’s a win for everyone in the crypto space.

Grid Bot Trailing Up and Expansion Up: What you need to know

Trailing Up
This feature is available for:
Spot Grid bots (Geometric type)
Futures Grid bots with Long strat (both types)
This feature allows your bot to increase the trading range, following the market when the price trends upwards out of your existing grid.

How does Trailing up work?

Once the price rises 2 steps above the High price of the bot, the lowest buy order is canceled and placed 1 step above the bot's High price. As the price continues to rise, this process is repeated with the lowest buy orders being canceled and placed one step above the previous high price.

Expansion Up
This feature is available for:
Futures Grid bots with Reversal and Short strategies (both Geometric and Arithmetic types).
This feature lets you expand the trading range upwards to follow the market.

Stop Expansion Up
Set the limit for the top price you want your grid to expand to.

How does Expansion Up work?
Expansion Up requires an additional investment since the bot does not cancel old Buy orders but places additional Sell orders above the bot's upper boundary.

As soon as the highest Sell order is executed, the bot will automatically place an additional Sell order one step higher without canceling the lowest Buy order. Thus, the user-defined number of lines will increase due to additional orders until the price reaches the Stop expansion up level.

🚀 Smart Cover: the easy way to go Short!

Think a coin’s price is about to head south? Set up a Short position the easy way with a Smart Cover. It’s one of our Smart Trade features you don’t hear about much, but clever traders use it to exit a position and then buy back into that position when the cost of acquisition is cheaper.

🔹 Sell & Repurchase:
- Sell coins and rebuy at a better price.
- Set a sell condition and plan your repurchase price.

🔹 Use Cases:
1. Short Trade: Sell coins when value drops, rebuy lower, profit when value recovers.
2. Positive Sale: Sell when you think the price is near the top, repurchase after the price corrects.

🔹 Trade Conditions:
- Sell Condition: Initiates a sell order when the price matches your setting.
- Buy Conditions: Plans the repurchase of tokens with optional Take Profit and Stop Loss settings.

🔹 Examples:
1. Short Trade:
- Sell ETH at $2500, repurchase at $2400, Stop Loss at $2600.
2. Take Profit:
- Sell ETH at $2600, repurchase at $2550, no Stop Loss.

🔹 Trailing Features:
- Trailing sell, Take Profit, and Stop Loss options available to potentially maximize profits and minimize losses.

Crypto exchange APIs: What you should know

Every reputable cryptocurrency exchange offers an API connection. For the uninitiated, an API allows users to communicate with the exchange programmatically, rather than through the web interface. It's like sending DOS commands rather than clicking on stuff in Windows, if you're old enough to still know how to use DOS command line.

All those clicks and dropdown menus you would interact with in order to set up a trade manually can be accomplished extremely fast via API commands. This is how 3Commas and other third party services interact with exchanges.

Other than speed, there are several other advantages. Websites, via webhosting services, can easily break. 3Commas bots send commands directly to the exchange server, bypassing the limitations of the website. If the server is up, we can send commands to it.

For traders running lots of bots and complex strategies, milliseconds matter and the API connection allows them to send a lot of commands with minimal latency.

Let us know in the comments if you'd like to see a full blog article devoted to how you can leverage APIs, including the 3Commas API, to make your trading time more productive.

Let's take a look at the recent crypto industry updates:

- Customers challenge FTX’s bankruptcy plans: A representative of the FTX Customers Ad Hoc Committee has said they want their cryptocurrency back rather than a cash plan from FTX.

Why’s it matter? Their lost crypto assets are likely worth considerably more now than they were when FTX collapsed. Taking the cash value at the time of seizure would be settling for less.

- Solana ETF: 3iQ files for Solana ETP (exchange traded product) in Canada which will offer exposure to the digital currency SOL and its price movement against U.S. dollars. More institutional support is always a good thing.

- Italy plans to fine market manipulators: In compliance with the new European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework, Italy has a new draft policy to fine market manipulators and other financial crimes.

Why does it matter? We’ve already seen Binance rework how their Futures trading functions. Assuming other exchanges make similar moves, trading bots will be disrupted for an unspecified period of time until new API communications are worked out.

How do you decide which sh*tcoin tokens to turn into deals?

With over 10,000 coins out there, traders are always looking for an edge to get ahead of the crowd and find untapped value in the market. Often this can mean navigating the rocky waters of extremely volatile sh*tcoins.

We did an informal poll among our more experienced trading employees, and here are their opinions:

- Avoid coins with hyped ICOs if you can’t find any real info on the founders or the investment groups buying into them. Many of these can be pump and dump traps.
- Look for coins that have been on the market for at least one year without completely flatlining.
- Liquidity, liquidity, liquidity. Coins that are difficult to unload are difficult to successfully trade.
- If the coin is only listed on some sketchy exchange with large minimum withdrawal requirements, run away.

That advice may seem simple, but good advice often is. Due diligence is the responsibility of every trader, and if you want to find amazing opportunities, you’re going to need to do a bit of research.

Alternatively, Binance currently offers 159 stablecoin pairs, and our multi-pair bots can search for deals on over 100 coin pairs at the same time. Other exchanges supported by 3Commas also offer a wide variety of coin pairs.

You don’t have to limit yourself to only the coins you know. Let your bots sift through the coin pairs to find the best deals: https://app.3commas.io/bots

New DCA tool gives more flexibility for optimizing deals with Limit orders

Add more funds to a DCA Bot deal now by using a signal to place a Limit order. Added two features:

- Add funds to the deal as a limit order with a specific price.
- Add funds to the deal as a limit order with a price deviation % from when the signal was received.

Here’s how to add a limit order with a specific price:
1.- Copy the JSON code from the bot for “Message for deal add funds signal in the quote currency” or “Message for deal add funds signal in the base currency.”
2.- Add the following lines to the end of the JSON code, where “price” will display the specific price of the Limit order that will be placed on the exchange.

{
...
"price": 10.0
}

To add a limit order with deviation % from the price when the signal was received, do this:
1.- Copy the JSON code for “Message for deal add funds signal in the quote currency” or “Message for deal add funds signal in the base currency.”
2.- Add the following lines to the end of the JSON code, where “price_percent” will display the percentage of deviation for placing a Limit order on the exchange.

{
...
"price_percent": -5.5
}

Few things to watch for:

- “Price_percent” value can be in this range: -99 – +1000 (without “%” symbol)
- If you input both “price_percent” and “price”, only the “price” parameter will count, and the percent will be ignored
- If you set the price higher than current for Long or lower than current for Sell, the order will be executed immediately at the market price
- These parameters are valid only for the Add Funds tool

Let's dive into the recent crypto industry updates:

🚀 Mt.Gox is set to start distributing Bitcoin worth over $8B to creditors in repayments: This is reportedly the largest stash of Bitcoin that will ever go into the market. Mt.Gox is set to commence repaying creditors a total of 141,686 Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash.

🔓 Major crypto projects to unlock $755M in July, 2024: Crypto assets adding up to around $755 million from AltLayer, Arbitrum, Optimism, Xai, Aptos, Sui, ImmutableX, and Starknet will be released as their vesting period concludes.

📄 VanEck Files for Solana ETF in the US:
On June 27, VanEck, a prominent New York-based investment firm, filed a proposal with the SEC to launch a spot Solana ETF. This comes just a few days after 3iQ filed for a Solana ETP (Exchange Traded Product) in Canada.

🤔 Why does it matter? If Solana ETF gets approved, it will likely have a positive effect on the Solana token market and its ecosystem.
