Frequently Asked Questions

Can I migrate from ProfitTrailer to TradeArmor?

Yes. TradeArmor includes a one-click migration tool built specifically for ProfitTrailer users. It imports your existing book so the bot can keep trading where ProfitTrailer left off.

What does the migration import?

Your open positions and every DCA leg, your full buy and sell history, your signal history and account snapshots, and your settings. Configuration is translated automatically.

Does it keep my open positions?

Yes. The migration reconstructs your open positions and their individual DCA legs inside TradeArmor, so you do not have to close them at a loss or re-enter them by hand.

Is there downtime during migration?

No. You run the migration, restart TradeArmor, and the bot picks up your strategy. There is no gap where positions are unmanaged beyond the restart itself.

Does TradeArmor's DCA logic match ProfitTrailer's?

Yes. TradeArmor's DCA buy gate matches ProfitTrailer's EQPRICE formula, so the buy-gate behavior you relied on carries over unchanged.

Do I need to edit config files to migrate?

No. The migration translates your ProfitTrailer configuration automatically. There is no manual YAML or settings editing required.

Is ProfitTrailer still being developed?

ProfitTrailer is no longer under active development. That is why many of its users move to a maintained, actively developed bot while keeping their positions intact.

Will my full trade history transfer?

Yes. The migration reconstructs your buy and sell history so your records and reporting stay continuous.

Can I run ProfitTrailer and TradeArmor at the same time during the switch?

You should avoid running two bots against the same exchange account on the same coins at once, since they would both try to trade. Migrate, verify the imported positions in TradeArmor, then run TradeArmor.

How long does migration take?

The import itself is quick. Most of your time is spent reviewing the imported positions and settings to confirm everything looks right before going live.

Which plan do I need to migrate from ProfitTrailer?

Migration and the DCA engine are available starting on the Starter plan at $19.99 per month.
