This Algorithm Made 7% In 30 Days Trading Both Directions

Kosta Ouzas demos the Minotaur Accumulator Hedge Bot, an automated trading algorithm that opens long and short positions simultaneously using Bollinger Bands and safety orders. In a 30-day replay, the long side made 2.5% and the short side 3.24%, totaling 5-7% with no manual trading needed.

We don't know what the market is going to do, and honestly, nobody does. That's the whole point. And most bots are built on the assumption that price is just going to go up, and the second it doesn't, they all just fall apart. So in this video, I'm going to show you a trading algorithm that doesn't care, and that's called the Minotaur Accumulator Hedge Bot. It runs a long and a short simultaneously, both fully automated, covering both sides of every swing. Market goes up, the long takes profit. Market goes down, the short takes profit. Market chops sideways, both sides feed off the noise. And when the market crashes into the floor, they The hedge kicks in and the two legs protect each other with controlled drawdown limits and hard stop losses. So your exposure is always defined. So over the last 30 days running this live, longs returned 2.5%, shorts came in at 3.24%, combined around 5 to 7% for the month. Fully automated, no screen time, no emotional decisions. And that's before you even factor in the full hedge contribution. Now compound that month after month, and I'm gonna show you a replay in this video of exactly these trades and analyze every single position that was taken. So please watch until the end.
Let's dive in. All right, so let's go ahead and look at the trade.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to oscillate between the long and the short.
What you can see right now, so we're going from April the 19th, we'll go all the way to today, May the 11th. And let's just flip that to the short. So you can see on the short side we're waiting for the entry, but on the long side we just took a take profit there. So on the long we're waiting for an entry.
These, what you're seeing, is Bollinger Bands being used on both sides.
Ah, perfect. Now we're both waiting for a trade. Let's see what happens here. Long waiting. And the short waiting. There we go, we entered our first short position. Second short position is a safety order. Let's flip back to the long now. Long is still waiting. Obviously we want the market to drop for that long to get a better entry, but that short's doing well. There you go, made another entry and took a profit. The short now is waiting again. Let's look back to the long. So again, we're using one standard deviation below the Bollinger to give us our entry for the long. So there it goes, just took an entry there. Shorts are still waiting. Let's have a look at the longs. Beautiful, took a stop loss, uh, took a take profit there. Entered again. So again, all this is automated.
So once I've engineered this algorithm algorithm. I basically can connect this to our exchange using the Minotaur app, and it's going to enter all these trades completely hands-free.
So this takes all—
basically all the hard work out of trading, because what you're doing is you're not necessarily being a trader, you're being an algorithm operator.
And an algorithm operator is something I can teach you to be in a couple of days, maybe 3 days. So let's have a look at that. The long took a profit there. Again, all I'm doing is just making sure it's all working. So again, short took a profit there. Waiting for an entry on the short. Here we go, long took another entry there. As you can see there below that Bollinger, and then it's entered its safety order there. That's its TP there moving there in the green. And if I switch to the short, we can see the short's TP there as well. So here we go, that long took profit, and again, the long's moving down. And short's still waiting for an order there actually. The long's, yeah, took that other profit there. Where are we at now? 30th of April. So we've got 11 days to go till we get to today. Longs waiting for an entry there. Price is moving up again. Oh, there we go, our first short entry. Another short entry there. Uh, the price is rallying here, 78 moving upwards. We can see the trend is definitely upwards here. So our longs— not in any longs at the moment, but our shorts are still, uh, there. We've got our take profit there in the green. We're getting quite close to the take profit there. Let's see what happens. Again, longs still holding off, but again, an opportunity here will come soon for a long. Uh, there we go, another short position there. Ah, there we go, that wick down there, beautiful. Exited the short. And let's flip to the longs. Longs are still waiting for an entry. Here we go, moving along with the short. What are we up to now? 5th of May, so 6 days left. Uh, long again. See, this market's trending upwards. Uh, we haven't entered a long yet, of course. We want to wait for an opportunity of a dip when we enter that long position. We'll see, hopefully that happens soon. Again, not in any trades at the moment, just waiting for an entry. So let's have a look, flip between the longs. Ah, there we go, we just found a long then and took profit straight away. That's a nice little trade there. Another long there with a safety order. Let's flip to shorts. No shorts at the moment. Still on the long there, we can see our TP's moved down to a lower price, which is great. We're tracking that slowly. Uh, shorts still waiting. And where are we up to? May 9th now. So again, I wouldn't have had to do anything all week. I would just be sitting there watching this live and just the exchange that all these trades have been taken. Uh, let's have a look at the short. Bang, there we go, first short entry there. And now you can see we've got 2 take profits on the charts, 2 green ones there. Bang, another short. Uh, there we go, the short's taken profit. Let's move. Ah, and that's the end there. Okay, so let's see how these performed over that time period. So just 30 days we're looking at, we said the long did 2.51% Again, that was nice and easy over 14 trades. And the short over that same time period, there we go, did 3.24%. So between them, we averaged between 5 to 7%. And again, that would have been completely hands-free.
And it's actually a lot of fun watching it happen like that in the replay.
Obviously in real life it's happening a lot slower, um, but there you go.
That's exactly how it performed over the last 30 days. So if you've made it to the end of this video, you've seen exactly what the Minotaur Accumulator Hedge Bot can do. A fully automated long and short running simultaneously, a structural hedge edge that protects you when the market drops, control drawdowns, hard stops if you need it, and a 5 to 7% return in a single month, all without touching a screen. The reason this strategy works so well is simple: it doesn't rely on predicting direction. It's built to handle volatility and profit from volatility itself, which means it has an edge in every single market condition— up, down, or sideways. Most strategies can't say that. This one can.
