May 2025 Report

May 2025 Report

Contents

In May, we completed the development of functionality to support Binance API keys with IP restrictions on both TradeLink Marketplace and TradeLink Passport.

Now, you can connect API keys from any platform, including Finandy, WhiteList, TigerTrade, and others, where creating API keys without IP restrictions was previously impossible.

In the near future, we will add a guide with instructions to the platform. However, you can already contact our support team, and we will explain in detail how to do this.

Added Benchmark Index to the Portfolio Page

We noticed that you frequently asked about the ability to compare portfolio performance not only with Bitcoin. To provide greater convenience and variety in comparing different instruments, we added the Benchmark Index, one of the indices available on TradeLink Marketplace.

Now, by default, the Benchmark Index will be displayed on any portfolio page. However, if you want to compare performance against Bitcoin, this option remains available—you can switch the display by clicking the window, as shown in the screenshot above.

You can explore this update yourself via this link.

Added a New Informational Banner in the Dashboard

The new banner is designed for traders whose strategies we are interested in listing on TradeLink Marketplace.

It appears in the trader’s Dashboard if one of their strategies, added to TradeLink Passport, catches our attention. Therefore, if this banner appears for you, please get in touch with us!

Implemented a New Commission Model

In March, we identified that the current “Per Strategy” billing model, where fees are charged based on the revenue of a specific strategy, was creating inconveniences for investors on the TradeLink Marketplace platform.

Despite the transparency and fairness of this model for strategy creators, it led to situations where investors received commission invoices even if their index did not generate a profit.

Therefore, we introduced a new model—the Index Commission Model, which applies exclusively to indexes.

For each active investment, a High Watermark (HWM) has been established, representing the profit level at the time of the last paid month.

Under the new model:

  • An investor does not pay a commission until their profit exceeds the current HWM (they will receive zero-amount invoices).
  • A commission will only be charged on profits exceeding the HWM.

The previous “Per Strategy” model will remain in place for investments in individual strategies or user-created presets via the constructor.

Improved Invoice Interface

After updating the commission calculation system for TradeLink Indexes, we needed to make changes to the commission payment window, so we decided to completely overhaul it.

The new Invoice window is now more informative and supports two scenarios: standard and index-based. In the updated version, you can see detailed information about the commission to be paid, the previous HWM, the future HWM, and the profit for the period for each strategy.

Implemented a Risk Warning System in the Index Constructor

After analyzing the results of indices created independently by users, we identified several patterns associated with increased risks:

  • Users copying a single strategy over the long term earn less than those using diversified indices.
  • The likelihood of reaching the maximum drawdown limit increases if you use trading leverage for investments.
  • Indices with a high proportion of trend and counter-trend strategies (over 80%) are more sensitive to the current market phase.

To prevent unplanned losses, we implemented a risk warning system in the Index Constructor on the TradeLink Marketplace platform.

We expect this will enable you to create more resilient portfolios independently, which, in the long term, will positively impact the profitability of your investments.

Added an FAQ Section to the Marketplace

We analyzed your most frequently asked questions and noticed that many of you prefer not to read documentation but want quick answers to key questions.

To enhance your user experience on the TradeLink Marketplace platform, we added an FAQ section to the catalog page. The new section provides concise information on the following:

  • What is an Index? Information about indices, their differences from strategies, and how they are formed.
  • Investment Stages: How to invest, requirements, commission details, and how to track investments.
  • Get listed in an Index: Information for traders wishing to list a strategy on TradeLink Marketplace, including how to apply and details on listing and collaboration terms.

FAQ Section

Following your feedback about the lack of a convenient tool to compare profitability on TradeLink Marketplace with Bitcoin, we decided to address this.

We added the Bitcoin Return indicator. Now, on each strategy’s page, you can compare its profitability with Bitcoin. We expect this update will make it more comfortable for you to select a suitable strategy for your investments.
