Kosta Ouzas built the Minotaur Accumulator, a trading algorithm that combines three strategy engines and runs across crypto, commodities, and equities. It handles dual long and short positions simultaneously, uses Bollinger-based entries and DCA safety orders, and incorporates risk insights from physicist Giovanni Santastassi. Over 300 live clients trade it around the clock.
Most traders out there are chasing signals, a new indicator, a hot tip, a Reddit thread about entries at 2 AM, and that's exactly why most traders lose. The ones who win, they stop chasing and they built one system and let it work across absolutely everything. A real system doesn't care what you're trading. It reads the market, enters, manages the position, and exits. Short, long, hedged, the tactics change, but the system doesn't. And today I'm going to show you exactly what's running inside ours. The Minotaur Accumulator runs on 3 engines, 3 battle-tested strategies built by the greatest traders who have ever lived fused into one single algorithm. And when you see they work together, you'll understand why this is the only trading system that you'll ever need. So let's take a look under the hood. All right, so let's take a look at the Minotaur Accumulator and how we put all these strategies together. So I'm going to click on the latest version and we're going to run it on a 15-minute time frame here. And firstly, what I want you to see is just the amount of inputs that we've put into this algorithm. This thing is so dynamic, it has so many variables, and like I said, it allows us to program those three distinct engines into it. So I'll just go through a few of the things that we can use and then exactly how I would set that up. So for example, trading direction, we can go long and short. We've also got enable start stop bar. So this is in case, you know, the price just breaks out of price bands that we don't like. We can set that to whatever we want. Hard exit take profit, I'll go through to set this up. I use a 2 at the moment with my short, long short hedge strategy. I'm gonna use a stop loss on the last order. Again, you really need to know how we run this strategy. Well, actually let me run a trend following version there. See, just by choosing that trail take profit instead of the hard exit, I'm now using Turtle style strategy of trend following. Adjustment of TP is allowing us to get out basically at a break even if we ever need to. I could set that to the last safety order just to give us the best chance of getting that mean reversion if we ever need to. Again, we've got compounding settings or fixed settings. For example, we could use fixed settings, whatever the order size is, put 10 grand each. Safety order sizing controls is the DCA. That's the Warren Buffett part of the engine. Of course, we can control volume scale, which we can go as, you know, 1 all the way up to 2, 10, whatever you want. We usually go around 1.5. And then of course the price deviation, the price step scale, that's the DCA that we're gonna be using. The one thing about our algorithm is that we can actually outperform mechanical DCA because our algorithm is smart enough to go, look, give me the mechanical price deviation or better. And, and that does show up when the market's trending. You can see here these green and red lines. If the market's actually trending, it's going to go for a better entry, so it's going to hold off before it, uh, enters. So here's just a few of those things there. We can also hold new trades after a stop loss. If we ever get stopped out, it just basically cuts the whole trade there. Enable hedging— this is something that Marcus from The Trading Desk, one of our— well, he's our chief strategist— came up with. We're able to actually send a hedged position as well, and we can control the size of those hedges. We can control which safety order that will get sent. Look, we've built the most ideal settings for this to run and they're kind of out of the box and we can give them to you. But I just wanted to go through really the amount of sophistication and, you know, inputs that we have available here. Enable Bollinger entries. I used to, we usually use about a 1.5. Buy, show the signals there. That's a pretty good standard setup I'm going to be running here. There we can see the Bollingers just came on. Here we go. There we go. All right, so now we can just see the trades pop up there. Great, so we've got all our entries, all our exits, and looks something like that. Now what's really cool about what we do is we actually try and go delta neutral. So with the algorithm, I can also add it again, pretty much the same settings, but this time I'm gonna make it short. And I'll choose those settings again and we should be able to see those trades pop up pretty soon. Here we go. There we go. Now we've got the short and the long and you can actually see that running like that, which is really cool. So we're running a short side and a long side simultaneously and it creates something called margin folding, which basically means that if we've got a $10K account, we're actually trading with $20K because we're trading the long side and the short side in the same subaccount. Now, how are we able to do this? Well, we're able to do this through our unique software. So we've actually built our own software that runs our algorithm, and you can see here, it's— this is the Minotaur app. Basically, with our signal bot, we're able to create that dual signal by importing the TradingView strategy there, and then we're able to use the webhooks and the signal alerts to send the two signals at once, the long with the short hedged. And then we're going to be tracking it all here in our dashboard. That's what's really cool about about this application. It has been literally built for the Minotaur strategy. Uh, we also have the hedging mode here, you can see. And also we have the calculator, which is gonna help position sizing. This is something that we've built into the system. So with the Minotaur Accumulator, you are getting an algorithm that puts together all these 3 engines and gives you one system that can be deployed across any kind of equity, crypto commodity that the exchange gives you access to trade with. We've developed strategies for all of them. We do like to work specifically with Bitcoin. That's kind of our specialty, and that's because we work with Giovanni Santastassi, the PhD physicist who discovered the power law, and help us build our risk management into the way that we trade Bitcoin. So again, like, this chart here is trading Bitcoin on the 15-minute, but this is really cool, um, the way that we're doing this, and, you know, I haven't found a better strategy. That's why I built this, because I want to put my money on it. I want to put my clients' money on it, and I want other people to buy the algorithm to do really well using it. So if that interests you, then that's great, because everything you need is inside this trading algorithm. Now you've seen exactly how the system works, and systems like this don't exist in a vacuum. Behind the Minotaur Accumulator is a team that's fully invested in your results. Our team spans 3 continents: Australia, the UK, and the United States. We go to events, we get on planes, We shake hands with our clients in person. We've spoken on stages across the world and we show up because the people using this system deserve to know exactly who and why we built it. We've already got over 300 clients running the Minotaur Accumulator in live markets right now, across time zones, across asset classes, oil, gold, Bitcoin, equities, the same system working around the clock, whether in Sydney, London, or New York. And that's exactly why the next step matters. If you've reached this far, you already understand what most traders never figured out, and that's tactics without a system is just noise. You're one conversation away from finding out if the Minotaur Accumulator is the right fit for you. So go ahead, use the description below and book a call with my team. We'll look at where you're at, what you're trading, and show you exactly how this works in your hands. Over 300 traders have already made this call and it changed the way that they trade forever.
