Go long, short, or both — with rule-based leverage
Run bots in long-only, short-only, or long-and-short mode with automatic mirroring, and apply rule-based leverage on the 8 futures venues — all configured right where you build the strategy.
Go long, short, or both — with rule-based leverage, explained.
Markets go both ways, and so should your bots. VolatiCloud supports three position modes — long-only, short-only, and long-and-short — with an auto-mirror that derives the opposite-side logic for you, so you don't have to hand-write both directions.
On the 8 venues that support futures, you can apply rule-based leverage, expressed as part of the strategy itself rather than a blunt global multiplier. Direction and leverage are first-class controls in the builder, so the same place you define entries and exits is where you decide which way and how hard the strategy leans.
From idea to a running bot.
Direction and leverage are strategy decisions, so they live in the strategy.
Pick a position mode
Choose long-only, short-only, or long-and-short for the strategy.
Let auto-mirror help
In long-and-short mode, auto-mirror derives the opposite-side logic from your rules so you don't write it twice.
Add rule-based leverage
On the 8 futures venues, define leverage as a rule in the strategy rather than a fixed global setting.
Backtest both directions
Validate long and short behavior on real data before deploying.
Built for the way you trade.
Long/short and leverage are for traders who want to profit in down markets too.
Two-way traders

Frequently asked questions.
Can I run short strategies?
Yes. Bots support long-only, short-only, and long-and-short position modes. In long-and-short mode, an auto-mirror can derive the opposite-side logic from your rules.
Where can I use leverage?
Rule-based leverage is available on the 8 venues that support futures. Leverage is expressed as part of the strategy rather than as a single global multiplier.
What does auto-mirror do?
Auto-mirror generates the opposite-direction logic from the rules you've defined, so a long-and-short strategy doesn't require you to hand-write both sides.
Is leverage risky?
Yes. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses and can lead to liquidation. Use it deliberately, and backtest and paper-trade leveraged strategies before going live.
