Every vote shown Β· every order a receipt

How ZimmBot
actually works

Five AI models read the market every 30 minutes, and you see every vote. A rules-based grid places the orders. The two never touch β€” and this page shows you both, all the way down.


// The Read

Five Models.
One Market Read.

Every 30 minutes, for each of the eight coins, five models each receive a role-specific slice of the data and answer the same question: is this market trending up, trending down, or ranging? Each vote lands on your bot's card next to the weighted read. Nothing in this section places an order.

0.40
🧠
LEAD ANALYST
sees: the market summary
Price with 1h / 24h / 7d change, Fear & Greed, BTC dominance, funding rate, any high-impact economic event in the next 24 hours, a news-sentiment score, and the 30-day drawdown. Asked for a balanced overall assessment.
0.15
πŸ“ˆ
MOMENTUM
sees: momentum indicators only
RSI, moving averages, trend efficiency. No news, no prices summary, no other votes. It cannot rubber-stamp the lead because it never sees what the lead saw.
0.20
πŸ›‘οΈ
RISK
sees: the market summary
The same data as the lead, with the opposite mandate: be conservative, protect capital. A deliberate dissenting seat β€” not a second opinion from the same desk.
0.15
πŸ“Š
VOLUME
sees: volume indicators only
Its job is to confirm or deny a move on participation alone.
0.10
🌊
VOLATILITY
sees: volatility indicators only
Squeeze, normal, or expansion β€” and the likely breakout direction.

The weights are fixed and published β€” 0.40 / 0.15 / 0.20 / 0.15 / 0.10, in the order above β€” and every model's accuracy is tracked and shown on every trade receipt. We do not claim the weighting makes the read smarter. In our own scoring it has not yet beaten a naive always-RANGE baseline, and we say so rather than hide it.


// A Real Read

What Your Card Shows.
Captured, Not Staged.

A real read, captured from the same data your bot's card is drawn from β€” BTC, 2026-08-25 at 20:30 UTC. Four seats called it UP; the Risk seat called it a RANGE. The weighted read is UP. You see who said what.

The read is information. It is not an instruction.
The card shows you the read so you can see what five independent models think of the market your money is in. The grid below never reads it: no vote places, sizes, cancels, or blocks an order. If that ever changes, this page changes first.

// The Grid

The Trading Is Rules,
Not Votes.

Every order your bot places comes from a short list of published rules. Here they are, in the order they run.

BAND TOP Β· 95TH PERCENTILE OF 7-DAY HIGHS SELL Β· carried coin price now BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY BAND FLOOR Β· 5TH PERCENTILE OF 7-DAY LOWS rungs are evenly spaced in % terms
every rung is a resting limit order Β· it fills only when price trades through it
1

Set the band // every 7 days

The engine takes the last seven days of hourly prices for the coin. The floor is the 5th percentile of the lows; the ceiling is the 95th percentile of the highs. A volatile coin gets a wider band automatically. You set nothing here.

2

Split it into rungs // up to 10

The band is divided into rungs, evenly spaced in percentage terms, and your allocation is spread across them. The rung count is derived from the allocation: the minimum is $250, a slice under $500 runs fewer, larger rungs (about $50 each), and $500 or more runs the full 10. Every rung must clear our $10 minimum order (the exchange's own minimum is $1); bigger rungs keep a smaller slice from running short of cash per rung.

3

Arm the ladder // resting limit orders

Each rung below the current price holds a buy order. The bot does not chase the market: orders rest on the exchange as limit orders and fill only when price trades through them. Resting orders are charged the maker fee.

4

Buy a rung down, sell one rung up // the loop

When a buy fills, a sell is placed one rung above it. When that sell fills, the buy is re-armed on the rung below. Buy the dip, sell one rung up, re-arm β€” that loop is the whole strategy, and every turn of it is a receipt.

5

Re-band, carry the inventory // no forced selling

When the seven days are up, a new band is set from the new seven days. Coin bought in the old band is not dumped at market: it is carried into the new band and re-listed as sell orders at the rungs above the current price. A falling week means holding coin until price climbs back to those rungs.


// Deep-Drawdown Protection

Insurance.
Not Alpha.

One rule sits above the grid. It is price math, not an AI decision β€” and we describe exactly what it costs.

ENTER Β· βˆ’15%

If the coin falls 15% below its 30-day high, the bot cancels its resting orders, sells everything it holds at market, and waits in cash. It realizes a loss to cap a larger one.

EXIT Β· βˆ’7.5%

The grid resumes when the coin recovers to within 7.5% of that 30-day high. Between those two lines it does nothing β€” and your card says so.

THE COST

A gate that sells near the bottom is worse than no gate in a market that recovers. In our paper pilot, the gated arm earned less than the ungated arm over a window that recovered. We say that wherever we mention the gate.


// When It Isn't Trading

Waiting Is a State.
Your Card Names It.

A grid bot spends real stretches of time doing nothing on purpose. Every idle state on your card says what the bot is doing, why β€” with the live numbers β€” and what ends it.

IN CASH Β· PRICE ABOVE THE BAND

The coin ran above the band top. Buy rungs are armed below; nothing fills until price comes back down or a new band forms at the next re-band. The card shows how far above the band you are and when the next band forms.

BELOW THE BAND

Price is under the band floor. If rungs are armed, buys fill on the way down and carry. If none could be armed, the card says so and names the price that re-arms them.

PAUSED Β· SLICE TOO SMALL

After a falling week, the cash left over may not cover a full ladder of $10 orders. The bot pauses the block β€” nothing is sold β€” and the card shows the exact math: cash, rungs, dollars per rung, and when it is re-checked.

DEFENSE Β· HOLDING CASH

The drawdown gate fired. The card shows how far the coin sits below its 30-day high and the recovery level that resumes the grid.

Recordedthe moment it happens

No black box. A paper trail.

Every fill writes a receipt at the moment it happens β€” nothing is reconstructed after the fact. The mechanical reason comes first: which side, which rung, what filled. The five-model read sits beside it as context, so you can see what the models thought of the market at that instant β€” not because the read placed the order. It didn't.

It's the difference between "trust our algorithm" and "here is what the algorithm did, line by line."

// A note on transparency. The five models are shown by role, not by vendor; the mechanism is shown in full β€” real votes, real weights, real math. The market read above is a real read (BTC, 2026-08-25 20:30 UTC), captured from the same data your bot's card is drawn from. This page explains how the product works; trading performance is reported separately, and always with its fill model, window, capital base, and fees stated.
