We're now a month away from releasing our algorithmic crypto trading platform after 2 years of work

I'm really excited that after 2 years of work, we can finally release this. We're a small team, and because of that, we've been communicating with people closely and worked towards implementing features that users actually want. We named the application AESIR because we're all big fans of Norse Mythology. Most of us are active members of r/cc so we've had plenty of discussions with the community around features that you guys would like to see in this application.

Before I go any further though, I just want to clarify something - algorithmic trading platforms are not some magical money-printing plug-and play systems, and anyone who claims they are / or are advertising it as such are a complete fraud. Algorithmic trading platforms are simply a series of tools that you use as you see fit. If you're a bad trader / lack a trading strategy and have a tendency to yolo funds without testing a strategy first, a trading algorithm won't magically make you a good trader.

But having said that, there are multiple reasons why you might want to use an algorithm in order to perform their crypto trading, but the two main reasons are: automating an existing profitable but manual strategy or find new strategies that you would not be able to manually trade. The first tool that we built into AESIR is a great example of the second reason. We want to challenge the way that people trade, and make it easier to employ macro trading strategies. So we built a Volscan Module that allows you to buy any cryptocurrency on your selected exchange that spiked my more than x% in y seconds.

For instance, you could tell AESIR to scan an exchange and buy any coin that gains more than 3% in the last 5 minutes. This goes well beyond the scope of what manual trading can do, as you would never be able to analyze over 1000 trading pairs every 5 minutes. You’d need a lot of coffee for that!

So with this approach to trading, and coming from a small remote team, we are really excited to officially release the application for everyone to use.

Right now AESIR is in Open Beta, meaning that everyone can use it, but only in paper trading mode. That means you can play around with strategies that you might want to test but can't actually place any live trades. We are running closed live trading early access with users who have volunteered to test out live trading and ensure that there are no bugs in the code.

The Roadmap to Release

• Live trading early access is set to end on March 27, after which we will spend the next 3 weeks fixing any bugs found in the process, and writing more documentation.
• The Official release of AESIR set to happen on April 17 and we couldn't be more excited to see it happen.

Obligatory sneak peaks:

That's it for now. Hope to be back on April 17 and announce that we've finally launched this thing! In the meantime, you can join our subreddit to find our more, or create an account and play around with AESIR in test mode. Thank you :)
