This is not a mere backtested strategy. It\u2019s a real-life strategy \u2014 although you\u2019re about to see historical results.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This is no longer a thought experiment or proof-of-concept; it is an actual way to make money in crypto trading.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For our purposes, it\u2019s also a perfect way to illustrate how a simple strategy can work for real traders in real life \u2014 even during extreme market pullbacks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s dig in. What could you do, right now, today, with this algorithm?<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_does_%E2%80%9CBuy_85_Sell_80%E2%80%9D_mean\"><\/span>What does \u201cBuy 85, Sell 80\u201d mean?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here\u2019s the basic premise. In partnership with data firm The Tie, Cointelegraph Markets Pro has developed the VORTECS\u2122 Score, an algorithmic determination of how bullish or bearish current trading conditions are for a given crypto asset.<\/p>\n<p>The score is based on historical data, and it essentially sifts through the whole history of a coin or token looking for conditions that are similar to those it observes right now.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s looking for a variety of similarities and outliers \u2014 for instance, trading volume, recent price action, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> sentiment and even the volume of tweets about that asset.<\/p>\n<p>If it finds similarities, it looks at what h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ened next. Did the asset go up or down? How consistent was that movement? How significant was the rise or fall?<\/p>\n<p>Combining all of these data points, Markets Pro creates the VORTECS\u2122 Score, a dynamic and constantly evolving evaluation of the current trading conditions for each supported asset. The higher the score, the more bullish the outlook \u2014 and the more confident the algorithm is.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, a very low score is bearish (with equal confidence). A neutral score of 50 means the algorithm sees no significant correlation between current conditions and past price performance.<\/p>\n<p>The Markets Pro platform offers a whole range of strategies to traders.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A \u201cBuy 85, Sell 80\u201d strategy means that a trader can buy an asset that crosses the 85 score, which is considered strongly bullish. And then \u201csell\u201d the asset once it goes below the score of 80.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this is happening live on an exchange. Or a trader can simply \u201cpaper trade\u201d the asset to test the algorithm out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For instance \u2014 if Solana\u2019s SOL crossed 85, and was the sole asset with that high score, the trader could place a percentage of their current portfolio into SOL. But if Binance\u2019s BNB then crossed 85 as well, the trader could allocate some other percentage of their portfolio to BNB. Or not. The choice is theirs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"So_why_is_this_valuable_to_know\"><\/span>So why is this valuable to know?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The point here is to evaluate whether the VORTECS\u2122 algorithm is good at its job.<\/p>\n<p>When it sees bullish conditions, is it right more often than not? When the score goes up, do prices <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly increase? Obviously, the answer is yes.<\/p>\n<p>The Buy 85, Sell 80 is only one strategy. There are other strategies that have created a massive return on investment in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, Buy 90, Sell 85. That one is sitting on gains of +96.89% in 2022. Even stronger strategies include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buy 90, Sell 90 | +159.15%<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Buy 85, Sell 75 | +102.65%<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In fact, Bitcoin (BTC) returned -65% since the start of 2022 and Ether (ETH) fared no better with returns of -68% while VORTECS\u2122-based strategies averaged +81.50% across the board beating the pants off BTC and ETH respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And that signals that VORTECS\u2122 is working correctly. It is \u2014 in general, over time \u2014 proving that historical trading conditions for digital assets can be a useful gauge for the current health of that asset.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In other words, a high VORTECS\u2122 Score has a proven correlation to price appreciation.<\/strong> Not in every instance, not for every asset\u2026 but in general, the results in 2022 have made a compelling case.<\/p>\n<p>Warren Buffett (perhaps paraphrasing Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel) once said that \u201cWhat we learn from history is that people don\u2019t learn from history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>(As a crypto skeptic, he might want to revisit his stance.)<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s what the VORTECS\u2122 Score is all about. Learning from history. And that\u2019s why a real return of 176.31% right in the middle of one of the worst Crypto Winters in the market\u2019s history is important.<\/p>\n<p>It tells us we\u2019re looking at the right history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"post-content__accent post-content__accent_small\">Cointelegraph Markets Pro is available exclusively to members on a monthly basis at $99 per month, or annually with two free months included.
