Crypto Quant Researcher – Proven Pump/Dump & Pre-Breakout Strategy | Existing Bybit Bot

**Fixed budget: $1,000 USD – All-inclusive | No Advance Payments | No Partial Payments** **Do you already have a working, profitable crypto pump/dump or pre-breakout trading strategy that can be adapted to my existing bot?** I am particularly interested in an existing, independently tested strategy with verifiable results. If you do not have one, you must have proven experience independently researching and developing profitable quantitative trading strategies. **I am NOT looking for a general Python programmer or someone who needs me to provide the trading rules.** ## Project Objective My Bybit USDT perpetual trading bot is already fully operational. I only need a **Python 3.12 strategy detection module/script** that connects to it without changing its existing execution, leverage, risk management or exit logic. The strategy must independently identify genuine LONG and SHORT opportunities, including: - **Intraday pumps/dumps:** Major price movements of approximately 10–50% or more within a day. - **Swing pumps/dumps:** Major directional moves developing over several days, weeks or approximately one month. - **Pre-breakout opportunities:** Accumulation, distribution, liquidity changes and order-flow buildup BEFORE major price movements. - **Short squeezes, liquidation-driven moves, reversals and early trend acceleration.** The priority is **early, executable entries**, not signals after most of the movement has already occurred. ## Your Responsibility – Strategy and Profitability **You take full responsibility for strategy research, development, testing and demonstrating historical profitability.** I will not provide profitable trading rules, indicators, thresholds or signal formulas. You must independently develop or adapt a proven strategy using relevant market data, including tick-level trades, order flow, incremental Level 2 order books, liquidity, volume, open interest, funding and market conditions. Experience with **Binance, Bybit, OKX or comparable exchanges** is accepted. Previous Bybit experience is not mandatory, but **the final module must work and be independently validated on Bybit USDT perpetuals**, including smaller eligible coins. The module must detect intraday opportunities in real time without waiting for M1/M5 candle closes, while also supporting longer-term swing detection. ## Mandatory Historical Performance Verification The completed strategy must pass reproducible, chronological, untouched out-of-sample testing with realistic fees, spread, slippage, liquidity and execution constraints. **Binding acceptance requirements:** - Profit factor **≥ 1.5 separately for LONG and SHORT**. - Positive net expectancy for both directions. - At least **100 independent closed out-of-sample trades per direction**. - Maximum portfolio drawdown **≤ 15%**. - Positive net performance after removing the five largest winning trades. - Evidence of early detection, false signals, missed major moves and each filter's actual contribution. Historical tick/L2 data sources, completeness and reconstruction must be verified. Any third-party data costs must fit within the total budget. The project also includes **2–4 weeks of Bybit Demo Trading**, full source code, documentation, reproducible tests and a **10-business-day independent final review**. These are historical acceptance requirements, not guarantees of future profits. ## Existing Bot – Do Not Rebuild My bot already handles execution and risk management. Existing exits remain unchanged: **TP1 closes 20%, TP2 closes 20%, remaining 60% uses ATR Chandelier trailing. No fixed TP3. Break-even only after TP2.** Your deliverable is the independently validated detection module, not a replacement trading bot. ## Payment Terms – Strictly Non-Negotiable **TOTAL FIXED BUDGET: $1,000 USD, ALL-INCLUSIVE.** **NO ADVANCE PAYMENTS.** **NO PAID RESEARCH OR PROTOTYPE STAGES.** **NO PARTIAL PAYMENTS OR PARTIAL MILESTONE RELEASES.** **NO PAYMENT FOR FAILED ACCEPTANCE TESTS.** I can fund **one $1,000 Freelancer escrow milestone upfront as payment security**, but **NO funds will be released until the ENTIRE project has passed independent final acceptance**. If you require partial releases, paid research, advance payments or payment regardless of the agreed historical results, **DO NOT BID**. ## To Apply – Answer Directly 1. Do you already have a profitable, tested pump/dump, pre-breakout or crypto swing strategy that can be adapted? Provide verifiable results. 2. Have you personally developed profitable order-flow or market-microstructure strategies? Show evidence. 3. How will you detect major moves BEFORE the breakout and distinguish real opportunities from false signals? 4. How will you prove historical profitability and obtain reliable Bybit tick/L2 data? 5. Will you take full responsibility for developing and validating the strategy, rather than asking me for trading rules? 6. Do you accept **$1,000 all-inclusive, all historical acceptance criteria, and ZERO payment releases before complete final acceptance? YES or NO.** **Only experienced quantitative strategy researchers with verifiable evidence should apply. Generic bot-development proposals will be rejected.**
