what's tread.fi?
tread.fi is an algorithmic trading terminal and Order and Execution Management System (OEMS) designed for retail and professional traders in the cryptocurrency space. It enables users to automate trades, connect to both centralized exchanges (CEXs) and decentralized exchanges (DEXs), and execute strategies with advanced algorithms that minimize slippage, reduce market impact, and lower overall trading costs. Key features include volume bots for generating liquidity on perpetual futures markets, high-frequency trading (HFT) tools for market making, and integration with platforms like Hyperliquid and Trade Perps to support directional biases and wick-catching mechanisms. The platform emphasizes efficiency for institutional and pro traders by providing tools to manage multi-exchange portfolios, transfer balances seamlessly, and deploy bots for passive volume farming or active liquidity provision. Built with a focus on perp DEXs and CEXs, tread.fi allows users to scale capital through automated strategies, such as providing two-sided liquidity to order books or baking in custom alpha for profitability, all while maintaining maker-only orders to capture market movements.
