Binance Derivatives

⚠️ Important Notes Before You Begin Setup

🚨 Before You Begin

Please contact us to receive your Sequence User ID and BOT ID. These identifiers are essential throughout the setup process and are unique to your account.

1️⃣ Use a Desktop Browser for Best Results

We strongly recommend completing the setup process on a desktop browser, preferably Chrome. In our experience, doing this on a mobile web browser can be quite difficult — while not entirely impossible, the process is significantly less smooth. Additionally, API configuration is not supported in the native exchange applications (e.g., the Binance or Bybit mobile apps), so it's important to use a desktop environment for a successful setup.

2️⃣ Jurisdictional Restrictions on Derivatives Trading

Please be aware that some jurisdictions restrict access to futures and derivatives trading. While exchanges such as Binance do not publish a complete list, these products are typically not available to users in certain regions. Countries with known restrictions include the Netherlands, Spain, United Kingdom, Italy, United States, and Canada, as well as any jurisdiction where the exchange is not officially licensed to operate.

If you're unsure whether your region is affected, one easy way to find out is to log into your futures account and try placing a test trade. The order can be cancelled immediately afterward. If your jurisdiction is restricted, the platform will typically block the attempt or display a clear error message.

Available strategies:

  • ⛳ BTC inverse 1x / 1.5x (BTC collateral / BTC accumulation) - 0.2 BTC minimum [flagship derivatives product]
  • BTC linear 1x / 1.5x (BTC collateral / USDT accumulation) - 0.2 BTC minimum [Advanced]
  • 2x SL (BTC collateral / BTC accumulation) - 0.2 BTC min / 0.2 BTC max + $100,000 required to be trading for 3 months [Invitation Only]

Steps to take to set up an API + strategy with a Binance derivatives strategy:

Step 1 👉 Create a sub-account

⚠️ Important: You must provide API keys for a sub-account dedicated to trading with Sequence

To trade with Sequence, each strategy must operate from a dedicated sub-account.

Never modify or place your own trades within this dedicated sub-account.

Some other notes

⁉️ API validity

Please note that API keys have a 90-day validity period. Our team will send a reminder 7-10 days before your keys expire. However, we advise you to also set a reminder to renew and submit the updated keys via the Sequence platform prior to expiration.

As you go through the API refresh process, it is important not to delete the keys that are trading to avoid any service disruption. Once you have received the “API refresh” email, you can delete the old API (or let it expire).

⁉️ Trade only permissions

The API permissions we ask for grant us limited access to open and close positions on your exchange platform.

We do not have the capability to transfer or withdraw funds from your account.

⁉️ Security recommendation

To maintain the integrity of your account, never share login credentials for your exchange account, including with our team.

⁉️ Questions

Of course, if you have any questions or get stuck, please contact support@tradewithsequence.com

🟢 What to expect The algorithm employs a systematic DCA approach, placing strategic orders based on bidirectional price action. The algorithm intentionally places smaller trades when price ranges are tight. Therefore during sideways or upward-only price movements, the strategy maintains conservative trade sizes. Conversely, larger trades require more significant price movements in both directions for effective execution and closing.

🟢 Adding funds The system takes into account the total balance of the account after the close of each trade / before the start of a new trade. This means that additional deposits can be made at any time and the system will recognize the deposit at the start of the new trade. For the funds to be recognized, please ensure funds are deposited into the Unified Trading Wallet (on Bybit) or account where you are trading (on other exchanges) AND deposited in the strategy’s base currency.

🟢 Withdrawing funds

For security purposes, please notify us before making any withdrawals that exceed 5% of your total wallet balance. This security measure allows our team to safely pause the automated trading functions before processing your withdrawal. You can submit withdrawal notifications through your user dashboard or by emailing us here: support@tradewithsequence.com

🟢 How to monitor your strategy You can monitor your strategy’s performance directly through your exchange interface by looking at the trade history. We recommend doing this in your desktop browser. For accurate performance tracking, please keep in mind that exchanges display profit and loss (PnL) metrics in USD terms. This is relevant for any strategy that is accumulating Bitcoin - as the unit of account will be incorrect. You must look or export the close trades and then compare the results in your unit of account.

⛔ Manual trades

Once launched, do not perform any manual trades in the account/sub-account running the algorithm

⛔ Withdrawals

Once launched, do not withdraw more than 5% of your balance without notifying us first

⛔ Non base asset withdrawals

Once launched, do not withdraw from any asset other than the coin that you are accumulating

⛔ Non base asset additions

Once launched, not add any currency or coins, other than the base asset you are accumulating
