ARCANUM Launches Lift: A Spot Trading Algorithm That Works Positions Deep In The Red
In Brief
ARCANUM launches Lift, a spot trading algorithm that recovers positions bought well above market through step-based range trading.
ARCANUM has launched Arcanum Lift, the company’s third trading algorithm, expanding its line of automated tools beyond the existing Pulse and Wave products.
The launch follows the company’s September announcement of the upcoming release: in an interview earlier this month, CEO Mikhail Ivanov described the new product as “one that will trade the underlying assets rather than perpetuals.”
While Pulse and Wave answer the question of what to enter — opening new positions on signals — Lift addresses a different problem: what to do with a coin already bought well above its current price. Operating on the spot market, the algorithm works with the position a user already holds, building and unloading it in small steps and closing each step once the price has moved by a set delta, thereby optimising the position’s cost basis.
“Anyone trading spot has a position bought well above the market. The usual choice is simple: wait for a reversal or take the loss,” said said Mikhail Ivanov, CEO of ARCANUM in a written statement. “Lift adds a third option — work that position while the price moves inside a range. We built the tool we needed ourselves,” he added.
Lift also offers a second use case: growing the coin balance. During setup, the user chooses where the result of each trade goes — into USDT or into the coin itself — so in the second mode the coin amount on the balance increases. The tool is available inside the ARCANUM broker platform, where the catalogue holds 349 spot pairs. Each coin has several strategies differing by working timeframe, from one week down to five minutes, with a backtest filling in the parameters. Entering an average purchase price is optional and serves only to show where the position stands.
Arcanum Lift: Setup, Fees and Availability
Getting started with Lift requires a Bybit account, as the algorithm trades on that exchange. Authorisation runs through Bybit, meaning there is no separate registration on the ARCANUM platform. Funds are transferred from the user’s own Bybit account to the ARCANUM spot broker account linked to the same Bybit UID, and deposits and withdrawals work only with that account. Once the user picks a coin and a strategy, the algorithm works the position on its own, while settings remain editable and the slot can be paused at any time.
The fee structure is tied directly to performance: 10% of the profit generated, applied to profitable trades only. A losing trade carries no fee, there is no subscription, and Lift requires no separate fee wallet to be topped up. Exchange trading fees on the broker account sit at the VIP 4–VIP 3 level depending on the counterparty of the trade — around 0.04% to open and close, against 0.1% on base terms.
Lift becomes available to all platform users on September 25, 2026 and is marked BETA in the interface. The tool has no track record of its own yet; it will build up alongside the history of real user trades — unlike Pulse, whose public track record has been open for verification since August 2024 and now spans over 11,000 closed trades.
ARCANUM is a trading infrastructure built on proprietary algorithms. Its line includes Pulse, an automated perpetual futures algorithm; Wave, a semi-automated tool for active traders; Lift, a spot algorithm; and a White Label platform for exchanges and partners, currently running six partner brands. The operating entity is Alteriom LLC, licensed by Dubai Economy for software development and distribution, and holds Bybit Official Broker status with completed verification.
