What Is Intelligent Rebalancing?
Intelligent rebalancing is a widely used automated trading strategy that keeps your investments balanced. This method is especially effective for optimizing assets when diversifying your cryptocurrency portfolio.
Crypto investors rely on intelligent rebalancing to manage their digital assets and improve risk control. The strategy involves periodically buying and selling crypto assets to maintain a predetermined allocation in your portfolio.
This approach restores your initial cryptocurrency weightings, allowing you to sustain your preferred risk level regardless of market conditions.
The intelligent rebalancing bot provides two rebalancing options: Threshold and Periodic. Threshold mode uses coin ratios, while Periodic mode is time-based. The bot triggers rebalancing automatically when your chosen coin ratio is met.
Threshold rebalancing means your portfolio will rebalance whenever any cryptocurrency increases or decreases by a set percentage. You can set the coin ratio threshold anywhere from 1% to 5%.
For instance, if the threshold ratio is set at 3%, the portfolio rebalances each time any cryptocurrency rises or falls by 3%.
Periodic rebalancing operates on time intervals instead of percentage triggers. You can schedule rebalancing from every 30 minutes up to every 28 days.
For example, if you hold four equally valued cryptocurrencies—BTC, ETH, XRP, and another token—in a $1,000 portfolio, and Bitcoin rises to 30% while Ethereum drops to 20%, the bot will sell some Bitcoin and buy Ethereum to restore the initial equal allocations.
Note: You can add up to 12 cryptocurrencies to your portfolio.

Step 4: Customize Advanced Settings
The intelligent rebalancing bot lets you configure advanced parameters for further customization.
-
Automatic Rebalancing: Choose rebalancing by Coin Ratio or Time. For instance, a 3% Coin Ratio setting triggers rebalancing when total profit reaches 3%. Time-based rebalancing can be set to hourly, regardless of market conditions.
-
Entry Price: Set the entry price for each cryptocurrency; the bot will buy assets at your specified limit price.
-
Stop Loss and Take Profit: Apply risk management by setting exit prices. If losses hit your preset threshold, the bot sells automatically to prevent further decline. Similarly, you can set take profit orders to capture gains at target levels.
Step 5: Set Portfolio Token Weights
Now for the key step: how to assign weights to each token. You have three options: AI Balance, Equal, and Market Capitalization.
-
AI Balance lets the bot allocate based on volatility and historical price trends.
-
Equal divides investments evenly. If you select five tokens, each gets a 20% allocation.
-
Market Capitalization is recommended for beginners, as token reliability often aligns with market cap.
Step 6: Create and Confirm Your Bot
After choosing your weighting method, tap Create. Review all settings, then tap Confirm to complete setup.
