Base Coin
The index coin is your base currency for your crypto index. This is the currency that will be used to buy or sell other coins.
Template
With this template, regular orders will be placed. If the bot is set on "Spider Mode" it will only use this template when the buy or sell orders are set on 0.
(Trailing) Stop Template
This is the template the bot will use when a stop loss or trailing stop has been activated.
Total Trade Amount
This represents the amount allocated to the bot for trading, spread over all the currencies in the index.
Current Index Value
This is the value of the whole index at this time.
Allocate Profits
When enabled, the bot will add the profit made from sell orders to the "Total Trade Amount." Any losses incurred will not be subtracted.
Preserve Base In Allocation
Enabling this feature will prevent the bot from buying other currencies when the wallet amount falls below the allocated amount of the base coin.

Rebalance Modes
Portfolio Growth
Portfolio Growth mode works based on the current value compared to the total index value.
Example
The bot will buy when 1 ETH equal 0.098 BTC and the bot will sell when 1 ETH equals 0.103 BTC.
Individual Growth
Individual Growth mode works based on the current price of the coin. When the price raised or lowest a certain percentage, the bot will buy or sell.
Example:
The bot will buy when the ETH price falls below 0.096 BTC and sell when the price rises above 0.11 BTC.
Spider mode
Spider mode works the same as the Individual growth mode, except it will place the limit orders in advance like a Flash Crash Bot.
Example:
The AIB trades just in comparison with the allocated amount/percentage. With the individual or portfolio growth this isn't an issue. The bot waits until the order amount is big enough for the exchange to allows the order, but on spider mode, the bot trades on fixed price points, so this is a bigger issue. Next to the Buy/Sell threshold field is an info icon. This icon will advise a certain percentage for the threshold. This percentage be big enough for the first few orders to be allowed to be placed on the exchange. Exchanges with a high minimum trade amount/volume will have a high percentage. The advised percentage is affected by the allocated amount. The higher the amount, the lower the advised threshold will be. The info icon next to the coin dropdown will tell you the market minimum information. If the bot is not placing orders after it has been activated, check the bots log. It will show you the reason why.
Flash mode
The flash mode works the same way as the spider mode and will place the limit orders in advance like a Flash Crash Bot. While the spider mode places orders that match the allocated amount/percentage, the flash mode allows to set the order size. The bot will reserve an amount to maintain the currencies allocated amount. A bot on flash mode can only handle an identical buy and sell threshold.
Example:
The order size needs to be higher than the exchange minimum trade amount/volume.
Index Table

Stop Loss Price
If the price falls below this target, the stop loss will be activated.
Trailing Stop
The trailing stop will monitor the price from the moment the bot was activated. If the price falls by a defined percentage from the highest recorded price, the bot will sell all the coins and exclude the index.

Fee Cost
Total fees paid from executing orders.
Unrealized Profits
When the bot has purchased more than it has sold. This will show the profit/loss when the additional coins are sold now.
Realized Profits
The bot realizes a profit when it completes a sell order. The buy costs of the sell order are matched based on the LIFO (Last In First Out) rule. This means the bot will sell off the extra amount it has purchased first before it uses the start amount. When it uses the start amount, it will use the start price as the buy price.
Realized Gain
Realized profit minus fees.
Current Price
The last known price of the currency.
Average Price
If the bot has purchased more than it has sold, this will represent the average price of that amount. If the bot hasn’t purchased more than it sold, this will represent the start price.
