Trading Controls
Control your AI trading with three simple buttons in the dashboard header.
Start / Pause / Stop
Start (Active)
Full AI trading is active. The AI scans markets, opens new positions, monitors existing trades, and executes stop-losses and take-profits automatically.
Pause (Monitor Only)
The AI continues monitoring your existing positions. Stop-losses and take-profits remain active to protect your capital. However, no new positions will be opened. Use this when you want to protect current holdings without adding new risk.
Stop (All Off)
All AI trading is completely turned off. No monitoring, no new trades, no stop-loss execution. Your existing positions remain open but are not managed. Use this only when you want full manual control.
When you stop the AI, your existing positions will NOT be automatically closed. If you have open positions and stop the AI, those positions will remain until you manually manage them or restart the AI.

How the AI Works
Kairos uses a team of AI agents that work together to make trading decisions.
Machine Learning Scans 120+ Coins Every 5 Minutes

Bull vs Bear Debate
Two AI researchers argue for and against each trade. 3 rounds of adversarial debate determine conviction.
Risk Manager Validates
Every trade passes through rule-based risk checks: drawdown limits, position sizing, stop-loss enforcement.
Smart Execution + Position Management
Trades execute automatically with DCA averaging, trailing profit locks, and smart exit timing. Every decision is logged with full audit trail. 100% closed trade win rate in backtesting.*
6 Machine Learning-Optimized Strategies
Each strategy is continuously optimized by our Machine Learning engine — retrained weekly on 10,000+ scenarios, adapting parameters to current market conditions. Strategy updates are auto-validated before deployment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my money safe?
Yes. Your API keys are set to Read + Trade only — withdrawal is never enabled. Your funds stay on Bybit at all times. Kairos cannot move money out of your account.
What is the minimum investment?
$500 USDT is recommended for optimal strategy diversification. The absolute minimum is $100 USDT, but smaller amounts limit the AI's ability to diversify across multiple coins.
Can I lose money?
Yes. Crypto is volatile and no AI can guarantee profits. Kairos manages risk with stop-losses (-3%) and max drawdown limits (15%), but losses are possible. Never invest more than you can afford to lose.
How do I withdraw?
Withdraw directly from your Bybit account. Kairos never holds or touches your funds. Simply log into Bybit and withdraw as you normally would.
What if the AI makes bad trades?
Every position has a -3% stop-loss and the portfolio has a 15% max drawdown limit. You can pause trading at any time from the dashboard. The AI continuously learns from outcomes.
Can I use multiple exchanges?
Currently Bybit is the primary supported exchange for live trading. Support for additional exchanges (OKX, Binance, and others) is coming soon.
