Crypto market-neutral EA ideas that actually shipped in 2025

Crypto traders hunted "market neutral crypto bot" ideas all year, but very few EAs handled funding rate shock. We deployed three SureGain templates that kept net exposure below 0.3 beta against BTC even through halving volatility.

Template 1: Delta-neutral basis capture

MT5 handles signal generation while Binance futures carries the hedge. SmartFlow monitors cross-exchange latency and flips to Bybit whenever Maker rebates widen beyond 6bps.

Template 2: Funding arbitrage wheels

SureGain's EA scheduler rotates through top-trending altcoins, opens offsetting spot and perpetual positions, and closes cycles when realized funding hits 12-hour targets.

Plug these EAs into our MT5 trade copier groups to mirror only the hedge legs, keeping directional copies on hold when volatility trips the risk engine.
