One of the objectives that Trademinator has is to be smart enough to understand when all markets are raising or collapsing at the same time. When markets have a sudden change, usually trading bots do not make a difference and they continue their algorithm in the correct way but making some losses.
Trademinator introduces the sell-only and buy-only modes to let it know it needs to change its behavior. Sell-only mode is very useful especially when a pair, like BTC_*, starts falling constantly. The bot will make its best choice to take out all the balance without losing too much. Buy-only mode is very useful when a pair like USDT_BTC is raising constantly.
