Slicer Strategy

A Slicer is a dynamic AI based algorithmic crypto strategy and can be described as a short term TWAP strategy. The strategy will spread the executions of the order up to 9 min from start (default value 1 min). Slicer aims to trade at market VWAP or better inn a given time window. The Slicer is given discretion to capture crypto momentum, volume surprises and optimal order placement levels. It is a strategy that works well when you have decided for a level where you are happy to add or sell without being static in the market.

Slicer focus highly on order handling and the importance to have a highest possible fill rate of passive executions, this will lower the commission and increase spread capture.
