Frequently asked questions

FAQ list

What does CoinRebalance actually do?

CoinRebalance monitors your Binance spot account and automatically executes market orders to keep your portfolio aligned with your target allocations. You define the percentages; CoinRebalance handles the rebalancing trades according to your rules.

Does CoinRebalance guarantee profits or predict price movements?

No. CoinRebalance is a rule-based rebalancing tool, not a prediction engine. It does not forecast prices, guarantee returns, or claim to beat any benchmark. Rebalancing reallocates your existing assets toward your stated targets — it does not change the risk profile of the assets you choose to hold.

How does auto-trading work?

When auto-trading is enabled, CoinRebalance runs a rebalancing cycle every five minutes. It compares your current holdings against your target allocations, computes the minimum set of trades needed to restore balance within your defined tolerance bands, and places market orders on Binance. Each cycle is logged in full detail in your audit history.

What permissions does CoinRebalance need on my Binance account?

CoinRebalance requires a Binance API key with Spot Trading and Read permissions only. Withdrawal permission is never requested and should never be granted. We recommend enabling IP whitelisting on your API key to the CoinRebalance executor's address for additional protection.

Can CoinRebalance withdraw my funds?

No. CoinRebalance explicitly does not request withdrawal permissions and its internal allowlist prohibits withdrawal API calls entirely. The system is designed so that even a compromised CoinRebalance account cannot move funds off Binance.

What is the difference between Free and Pro plans?

The Free plan includes auto-trading and supports up to US$2,000 in executed volume per month across one portfolio. The Pro plan at US$49/month raises the quota to US$20,000 and supports an optional 0.5% overage rate if you exceed that amount. Overage is opt-in and off by default.

What happens if I exceed my monthly volume quota?

On the Free plan, CoinRebalance pauses auto-trading for the remainder of the month when the quota is reached. On the Pro plan with overage disabled (the default), the same applies. If you have opted in to overage billing on Pro, trades continue at the 0.5% overage rate up to your personal monthly spend cap.

Does a single rebalance count as one order or two toward my quota?

Two orders. A rebalance executes a sell order and a buy order. Each order's notional value counts separately toward your monthly volume quota. For example, rebalancing $100 from ETH to BTC places a $100 ETH sell and a $100 BTC buy, consuming $200 of quota — not $100. Plan your quota usage accordingly if you rebalance frequently.

Is my data and API key secure?

Your Binance API secret is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before storage. The encryption key never leaves the executor server and is never stored in the same location as your encrypted secret. All rebalancing operations and order placements are written to an immutable audit log. Two-factor authentication (TOTP) is required for sensitive account actions.

Which coins does CoinRebalance support?

CoinRebalance supports any coin available for spot trading on Binance that is paired with USDT. You define your own allocation targets; CoinRebalance does not restrict which assets you include in your portfolio beyond what Binance allows.

Can I use CoinRebalance without enabling auto-trading?

Yes. You can connect your Binance account in read-only mode to view your current allocations against your targets and receive rebalancing recommendations without CoinRebalance executing any trades automatically. Auto-trading requires explicit opt-in and an active consent confirmation.
