Phemex AI Bot automates grid, Martingale and futures strategies

Phemex launches AI Bot in Feb 2026, automating grid strategies for 10m users under its AI-native initiative.

Cryptocurrency exchange Phemex announced the launch of its AI Bot trading system, according to a company statement released Thursday, marking a development in the platform’s transition to an AI-integrated exchange model.

The trading bot represents a deployment of artificial intelligence technology for the exchange’s 10 million users globally, the company stated. The system automates quantitative trading strategies across Futures Grid, Spot Grid, and Martingale trading systems.

Earlier in 2024, Phemex announced an AI-Native Initiative aimed at integrating artificial intelligence across its operations and product infrastructure, according to the company. The AI Bot launch serves as an implementation of that strategy, moving from planning into operational deployment.

The trading system utilizes machine learning to analyze data points in real-time and automates trading strategies, according to the company. The bot includes risk management features that adjust leverage and parameters based on historical volatility data, Phemex stated.

The company has initiated an “AI Bot Carnival” promotional program featuring a loss protection program for new users, along with volume-based rewards and incentives for users operating multiple bots, according to the announcement.

“Phemex AI Bot is solid proof that our AI-Native strategy is not theoretical — it is operational,” stated Federico Variola, CEO of Phemex. “We are not experimenting with AI at the margins. We are actively building an exchange where intelligent systems are embedded into how products function.”

Phemex was founded in 2019 and operates as a cryptocurrency exchange offering spot and derivatives trading, copy trading, and wealth management products, according to company information. The platform serves over 10 million traders worldwide.
