What is the Rebalancing Bot?
The Rebalancing Bot will automatically adjust your portfolio position in the token combination of your choice. By buying low and selling high, your strategy can maintain the same ratio of asset values through rebalancing at preset intervals or thresholds.
The botâs auto-rebalancing feature can be triggered by coin ratio or time intervals.
Auto Rebalance by coin ratio
This system will only rebalance when the change of any coin ratio exceeds the set threshold value. You may set the threshold value to 0.5%, 1%, 2%, or 5%.
Example:
- Portfolio: BTC & BNB
- Time: 1 minute (default)
- Coin ratio: 1%
- Amount invested: 800 USDT
- Initial coin allocation: 50%
With the parameters above, User A holds 400 USDT worth of BTC and 400 USDT worth of BNB in the portfolio when the strategy starts. The system will automatically calculate the ratio of each token in the portfolio.
Suppose after some market movements, the BTC and BNB values in the portfolio become 450 USDT and 550 USDT. The total portfolio value will be 1,000 USDT, and the current coin ratio is 45% (BTC) and 55% (BNB). As the ratio difference exceeds the preset level of 1%, auto rebalance will be triggered.
The system will rebalance the positions by buying 5% of BTC and selling 5% of BNB:
- BTC value = 450 + (1,000 * 5%) = 500 USDT
- BNB value = 550 - (1,000 * 5%) = 500 USDT
After rebalancing, User A now holds 500 USDT worth of BTC and 500 USDT worth of BNB, and the coin ratio is restored to 50%.
Auto Rebalance by time
The system will automatically detect whether to rebalance at a fixed interval. You may set the interval to 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, or 28 days.
Example:
- Portfolio: BTC & BNB
- Time: 7 days
- Coin ratio: 0.5% (default)
- Amount invested: 800 USDT
- Initial coin allocation: 50%
With the parameters above, User A holds 400 USDT worth of BTC and 400 USDT worth of BNB in the portfolio when the strategy starts. As the rebalancing by time condition is set to 7 days, the system will automatically calculate the ratio of each coin in the portfolio every 7 days.
When the current coin ratio exceeds the default level of 0.5%, auto rebalance will be triggered. The rebalancing process is the same as the example above.
Please note that the above examples are only for reference only. In the actual operation of the bot, differences between the rebalanced ratio and the preset ratio may occur due to the consideration of trading fees and trading rules.

How to adjust the positions of a running strategy?
Increasing the position
When you increase the investment amount, auto rebalance will be triggered.
Example:
- Portfolio: BTC & BNB
- Amount invested: 800 USDT
- Initial coin allocation: 50%
Suppose the price for BTC and BNB have both increased. In the portfolio, the value of BTC is now worth 450 USDT and the value of BNB is now worth 550 USDT. The total value of the portfolio is now 1,000 USDT. The current ratio of BTC and BNB is 45% and 55%.
The user adjusts the investment amount by adding 1,000 USDT. This triggers the system to auto-rebalance BTC and BNB to 50% respectively. The values of BTC and BNB become 1,000 USDT each after the rebalance.
Reducing the position
Please note:
- You may not be able to reduce a position if the order does not meet the minimum trade amount (10 USDT).
- When you reduce a position, auto rebalance will be triggered.
Example:
- Portfolio: BTC, ETH, BNB
- Amount invested: 400 USDT
- Initial coin allocation: 5% BTC, 25% ETH, 70% BNB
Using the parameters above, User A holds 20 USDT worth of BTC, 100 USDT worth of ETH, and 280 USDT worth of BNB when the strategy starts.
After the strategy had been active for some time, BTC price dropped and the BTC value in the portfolio became 10 USDT. The value of ETH and BNB remain unchanged at 100 USDT and 280 USDT. The total value of the portfolio is now worth 390 USDT.
Assuming User A wants to reduce the position by 50 USDT. The system will sell 35 USDT of BNB, 12.5 USDT of ETH, and 2.5 USDT of BTC. However, as the BTC value (2.5 USDT) does not fulfill the minimum trade requirement (10 USDT), the system will only reduce the position by 47.5 USDT (35 USDT worth of BNB + 12.5 USDT worth of ETH).
After the portfolio size has been reduced, the portfolio will be:
- BTC value: 10 USDT
- ETH value: 87.5 USDT
- BNB value: 245 USDT
- Total portfolio value: 342.5 USDT
- Coin proportions: 2.91% BTC, 25.54% ETH, 71.53% BNB
Note: There are minimum and maximum addable and removable limits.
- Maximum addable limit = Available USDT balance in the Spot Wallet
- Minimum addable limit = Minimum Order Size *1.2/ maxAllocation
- Maximum removable limit = Portfolio Value - Token Number *100 USDT
- Minimum removable limit = Minimum Order Size *1.2/ maxAllocation
Adjust the coin allocation
You can adjust the coin allocation by clicking the [View Details] icon on the Rebalancing Bot trading page.
Youâll be redirected to the order details page. Click [Change Coins] to adjust the coin allocation.

6. Why is my Rebalancing Bot strategy terminated/canceled?
Some possible reasons include:
- The market price has hit the stop-trigger price you set;
- The coin in your strategy is delisted or will be delisted soon;
- The product is no longer available in your region.
7. Which spot order type does the Rebalancing Bot use to buy and sell coins?
The system will place a spot Limit IOC (Immediate-Or-Cancel) order at the current market price. However, when the IOC order fails to execute, a Market order will be placed instead. For more details on how IOC order works, please refer to What Are Maker (Post Only) Order, Time in Force Order, and Iceberg Order.
8. Why doesnât the Rebalancing bot rebalance?
Please note that all orders need to abide by the Trading Rules.
For example, User A has the following portfolio:
- Portfolio: GAL, RDNT
- Coin ratio: 0.5%
- Amount invested: 240 USDT
- Initial coin allocation: GAL 50%, RDNT 50%
Currently, User A owns 130 GAL and 500 RDNT and the coin proportions are 50.6% for GAL and 49% for RDNT. To rebalance the order, the bot needs to sell (50.6% - 50% = 0.6%) GAL from the current position and buy (50% - 49% = 1%) RDNT.
Letâs assume the market price of GAL is 0.953 USDT:
- 130 GAL * 0.6% = 0.78 GAL * 0.953 = 0.74334 USDT
- The bot needs to place a 0.74334 USDT sell order.
Suppose the market price of RDNT is 0.2631 USDT.
- 500 RDNT * 1% = 5 RDNT * 0.2631 = 1.3155 USDT
- The bot needs to place a 1.3155 USDT buy order.
However, both orders cannot meet the minimum order size (10 USDT). The bot cannot rebalance and will show the following error message: âThe order value is less than the minimum value, and is unable to rebalance this time." It will continue to try until the order size can satisfy the Trading Rules. To complete the rebalancing, you can increase the investment amount, or choose a higher rebalancing ratio to maintain your target asset allocation. This can ensure that your investment strategy remains on track as market conditions change.
9. What are AI Rebalancing Portfoliosďź
Cryptocurrencies in the AI Rebalancing Portfolios are selected based on data from the Heatmap on Binance Spot. The proportion of each asset is calculated based on the market cap of the included cryptocurrencies.
The annualized return is calculated based on the daily closing price of each crypto in the portfolio, assuming that the portfolio rebalances once a day. The 7-day, 30-day, and 180-day annualized returns are, therefore, calculated based on the closing prices of their respective number of days.
