Frequently asked questions

Everything you want to know about HoneyBadger Trader and automated crypto trading.

What is HoneyBadger Trader?

HoneyBadger Trader is a platform for automated crypto trading with bots on your Bitvavo account. We handle the technology; you keep control of your money.

Is my money safe?

Yes. Your crypto stays on your own Bitvavo account. You give us an API key with trading permissions only — no withdrawal access. With this setup it is technically impossible for us (or anyone else) to withdraw your crypto. We explicitly ask you to disable withdrawal permissions when creating the key.

Which exchange is supported?

We currently support Bitvavo only, the largest Dutch crypto exchange. Other exchanges may be added in the future. No Bitvavo account yet? You can create one here. Using this link is entirely voluntary. When you sign up, HoneyBadger Trader receives a small commission from Bitvavo at no extra cost to you.

Which strategies are available?

We offer two strategies: RegimeSwitch (the cautious trader) and Swing Balanced (the active trader). Both run on Bitcoin and complement each other. Read more on our strategies page.

What does it cost?

You pay €5 per active strategy per month. One active strategy means €5/month; both strategies means €10/month (2 active strategies). On top of that we charge an 8% performance fee on the total net profit across all your active strategies. No profit? You only pay the monthly subscription. See our pricing page for worked examples.

Can I stop at any time?

Yes, always. You can pause or fully disable bots from your dashboard. There is no minimum contract term.

Is there a mandatory stop-loss?

No, we do not enforce a stop-loss. Because we trade spot only (e.g. BTC), there is no liquidation risk. Sharp market drop? You can hold open trades as a long-term investment (HODL), freeing the bot for new opportunities.

Do you guarantee profit?

No. Crypto trading always carries risk and past results do not guarantee future performance. Our bots use proven strategies, but losses are possible. Only invest money you can afford to lose.

What is the minimum investment?

The minimum depends on the chosen strategy and Bitvavo minimum order size. You can usually start from around €100.

How can I join?

We are currently in early access. Join our waitlist and we will contact you when a spot opens.
