https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/spot/en
) - To fetch trading data and implement copy trading actions.
Apify SDK (
) - To build the actor and manage state.
Needed capital and why: We would need approximately $50,000 for developing the actor, marketing, and providing ongoing support.Entry barriers: The main entry barrier is having deep knowledge of both the cryptocurrency trading space and Apify actor development skills.Who would pay for this service and under what situations: Crypto investors and traders looking to leverage top-performing traders' strategies would subscribe to the Copy Trading Actor. They would be willing to pay a subscription fee or a percentage of the profits generated from using the actor.Expected outcome and pricing model:
Cost: Monthly subscription fee or percentage of profits generated from using the actor.
Earnings: A percent commission for each duplicate trade executed using the actor.
ROI calculation: Assuming a $50,000 initial investment, 100 subscribers each paying $100/month, it would take 5 months to recoup the investment, and ROI would be 100% after ten months. Further growth in subscribers and positive performance from the actor would increase the ROI.Links:
