3. Problem Statement

3.1 For Individual Traders

Most traders:

• Have ideas (or follow TradingView strategies / signals)

• Know they should use automation

• But lack the technical bandwidth to:

  • Host bots on a secure server

  • Manage API keys safely

  • Deal with exchange quirks, precision rules, and leverage management

  • Implement fail-safes, logging, and monitoring

This leads to common failure modes:

• Missed entries/exits due to sleep, work or distraction

• Emotional overrides: chasing, revenge trading, abandoning the plan

• Inconsistent risk: changing size or leverage without a systematic reason

• Overcomplication: trying to run multiple scripts and bots with no unified view

3.2 For DeFi / Perps Projects

On the protocol side (like Perpbot’s PERP token + strategy account concept), there are also gaps:

• Projects want real, programmatic buyback & burn driven by real trading PnL, not vague promises.

• They need transparent, on-chain linked performance (strategy account → buyback/burn actions).

• They want to harness community strategies (PineScript, etc.) without centralizing risk.
