The method, in plain English

No black box. Here's exactly what happens, in order.

Master — our own account — does the deciding. Free through Pro copy it onto your own account; Ultra runs the same four moves independently, for itself.

01 / Filter

Keep only quality

Every coin is scored on liquidity, volatility and how long it's been trading. Thin, erratic or brand-new coins are dropped — no manual list, no guesswork.

02 / Decide

Master decides

Master ranks the shortlist its own way — momentum, a sustained climb, or a genuine dip — with an AI sanity check on every trade, and decides what to buy and when to sell.

03 / Copy or decide

Free through Pro copy it

Whatever Master decides gets mirrored onto your own account, sized to your tier — you're not scanning or judging anything, you're following an already-vetted call. Pro can switch to independent control; Ultra always runs its own engine instead of copying Master. Vault always waits for you.

04 / Exit

Exit with rules too

A profit target, a trailing stop, or a time limit closes the position — mirrored from Master if you're following, and backed by your own account's local safety exits either way, so nothing is ever just left open and forgotten.

The quality filter comes from each coin's own structure — liquidity, volatility, history — never from this install's own trading record, so it works correctly from the very first scan.

Four bots, in detail

Pick the style that matches how you want to hold.

Run one, or run all four side by side — they share the same quality filter and the same non-custodial connection to your exchange. On Master, Medium and Long, below Ultra your account copies these decisions rather than making them itself.

Master

The fast mover

Built for active, trending markets. Scans momentum frequently for quick moves in and out.

  • Reacts to short-term momentum, not long trends
  • Tight automatic stops — fast in, fast out
  • Market-led: active in a rising market, sits in cash and waits when there's nothing moving
Medium

The high-riser

Looks for coins already in the middle of a bigger, sustained climb — not just a quick spike.

  • Ranks by strength of an existing trend, not a single candle
  • Holds through normal pullbacks rather than exiting early
  • Market-led: needs a genuine trend to work with — sits out a flat or choppy market
Long

The patient dip-buyer

Waits for a genuine dip in a quality coin, then holds for the recovery — often the slowest of the four to turn over a position.

  • Buys into weakness rather than chasing price up
  • Designed to earn during recoveries, and sit quiet while markets keep falling
  • Market-led: no dip worth buying means no trade — patience over activity
Vault

Fully manual

For anyone who wants Farico's quality filter and exit discipline, but their own judgement on entries.

  • You choose every coin, from the same quality-ranked shortlist
  • Never buys or sells automatically without you
  • Same automatic exit rules once you're in a position

Every bot is built to sit still rather than force a bad trade — quiet days are the strategy working, not a fault. Honest limits: no bot can call the exact top or bottom of a move, and past or simulated results are never a guarantee of future results.

Try before you trust it

Free simulation mode, for as long as you like.

Every bot starts you with a $500 practice balance and live market prices — real decisions, zero real money. No card, no time limit.

Simulated earnings aren't added back into the practice balance, so you're watching how the bot trades rather than an ever-growing demo number. Every trade is still recorded honestly, win or lose.

Getting started for real

You'll need your own exchange account.

Farico is a tool, not an exchange — it trades through an account that belongs entirely to you.

What you'll need

  • An exchange account in your own name. Farico is built and tested on Bybit, so that's what we recommend to get started.
  • USDT (Tether) needs to be used. Every coin Farico trades is quoted against it.
  • Trade-only API keys. When you generate keys for Farico, switch off withdrawal permissions — it never needs them, and never asks for them.
  • Enough capital for your tier. Each tier has a ceiling on how much it will put to work; hold less than that and it simply trades what you have.

Why Bybit

Bybit's trading fees are among the lowest available to UK traders, it supports the coins Farico's quality filter tends to select, and it's the exchange every figure on this site is actually measured against. Other exchanges may work but aren't tested — Bybit is the one we can vouch for.

Where AI comes in

Used once, at the source — every tier benefits, not just the paid ones.

AI is currently built into two of the four bots: Master and Medium. It runs as a final sanity check on our own Master account before every trade — not to override the fixed rules, but to catch obvious red flags a pure numbers-based filter might miss. If the AI is ever unavailable, the fixed rules keep working exactly as before, unchanged.

Because Free through Pro copy Master's own already-vetted decisions, every tier gets the benefit of that AI check — you don't pay extra for it, and paying more doesn't buy you a "smarter" version of the same trade. Ultra is the one exception: instead of copying Master, it runs its own independent engine with its own AI check. Long and Vault don't have an AI feature yet, on any tier — that's a possible future addition, not something we're advertising today.

Your computer needs to stay on

Farico runs on your machine, not ours.

Farico is desktop software that runs on your own computer. It can only watch the market and trade while that computer is switched on, awake and connected to the internet — if it goes to sleep, loses its connection, or is switched off, trading simply pauses. Nothing is lost: open positions, settings and trade history are all still there when it comes back.

Want it trading around the clock without leaving your computer on? Always-on cloud hosting is on our roadmap as a future paid add-on — not available yet, and we won't advertise it as ready until it genuinely is.
