We're excited to announce that Surge is now live on Cardano mainnet. Surge arms the Cardano ecosystem with sovereign, user-friendly algorithmic trading power. We're striving to maximize Cardano KPIs at the lowest possible ADA cost. Link: app.surgecardano.com

Surge V2 is a thorough evolution of V1, featuring new tools that traders expect from a professional trading platform. TradingView will be shown on every strategy builder and token page.

Pre-launch QA week. Stability, security, and polish. Arbitrage is now wired with data, chart, and PnL all flowing correctly. Volume strategy detail page redesigned. Encryption added for local storage and hot wallets. Volatility backtesting refactored for consistent results. Trade widget added for direct swaps across all supported DEXs. Staking rewards now include generated wallets for strategy execution. We are in final testing stage.

Arbitrage V1 is now fully automated end-to-end. Detect opportunity → leg 1 → detect outputs → leg 2 → complete → PnL updated. No manual steps. DCA backtesting shipped. We built our own token metadata database fixing CNT display issues across the platform. Liquid Staking and claiming rewards are working. Copy trading migrated to Maestro with parallel backtesting execution. Heavy week. V2 is launching soon.

WingRiders went live alongside Minswap and SundaeSwap - three DEXs now integrated. Arbitrage strategy is built end-to-end with backtesting, live per-DEX price monitoring, spread indicators, and real-time stat cards. Copy Trading is fully finalized on both frontend and backend. On the platform side: PnL tracking, portfolio stats, activity filters, notification improvements, and a significantly more polished UI across every page. The platform is maturing fast. V2 is close.

Details matter. With Surge arbitrage strategies, every cost is factored into the profit opportunity of a trade. Slippage is calculated per DEX by pool size, and every fee (batcher, LP, etc.) is accounted for individually on each swap, all powered by our in-house Cardano data system. You know exactly how much you're making per trade, no guesswork.

Before running a live strategy, you can test it against historical on-chain data. Did your settings work in a bull market? A crash? A sideways grind? Backtesting shows you how the strategy would have performed without risking real funds. Surge is building this with full Cardano historical data, chart visualization, and PnL output.

A set of rules that executes trades automatically when conditions are met. No emotions. No missed windows. No wrong timezone. You define the logic: buy when X, sell when Y, repeat every Z minutes - and it runs without you signing every single transaction manually. Institutions have used them for decades. Surge brings them on-chain to Cardano, non-custodial, preserving Cardano's core values.

Trade automation usecase 🎚️ When purchasing $2,000 of a token at a shown price of $1.00, you may end up paying $1.04 due to slippage. When your trade is large relative to the pool, you move the price against yourself mid-execution. The thinner the liquidity, the more impactful this becomes. Trade automation can reduce the negative effect of slippage by making multiple smaller orders across different DEXs, executed autonomously. This can bring the avg. cost per token down significantly via access to more liquidity.

What does non-custodial mean in the context of Surge? The wallets used for trading on your Surge account, including their keys and the authority to execute trades, live entirely on your personal device. This is a meaningful departure from most automated trading platforms, which hold user funds custodially. With Surge, you retain full sovereignty over your assets, in keeping with one of Cardano's core value propositions.

Staking on Surge does two things. You earn a share of platform fees generated by every strategy running on the protocol. And based on tiers, the more you stake, the lower your own trading fees get. ✅

Arbitrage strategy, Copy Trading, and Staking all progressing this week. Arbitrage opportunity detection is live on the backend - the system evaluates every price change, identifies profitable routes automatically, and executes. Users can set a minimum profit threshold or accept any profitable opportunity. Copy Trading backend is also completed, frontend integration finalizing. Staking rewards distribution script implemented. Now back to work! 👨‍🔧

Most assets don't trend forever. They move up, overshoot, come back down. A mean reversion strategy, or also called volatility strategy, bets on exactly that. When price deviates too far, it buys the dip or sells the spike - expecting it to return to normal. Surge runs this automatically. Coming with V2.

Most people miss their best trades. Wrong timezone, busy day, blinked at the wrong moment. Automated strategies don't sleep. They monitor prices, execute when conditions are met, and run 24/7 without needing you to be there.

Arbitrage and Copy Trading strategies now in development. The old price system is fully replaced with our in-house pool state infrastructure. OHLCV finalized - this is what enables backtesting, RSI, and moving average metrics. Arbitrage routes expanding as we approached @WingRiderscom, @SplashProtocol, and @CswapDEX for integrations. More DEXs, more routes, more opportunities. 🫡

We’ve made solid progress on our backtesting engine. Just yesterday our first strategies were successfully calculated and visualized using historical Cardano on-chain data. Users will be able to backtest any strategy using over a year of Cardano historical data with the launch of Surge V2.

SundaeSwap pricing is now added on Surge. Live prices are now visible across the dashboard and sidebar with real-time status indicators. The price feed has been migrated to Node.js with Ogmios for native Cardano event support. OHLCV data implemented, acquired token tracking per transaction added, and volume strategy fixes in progress. Two DEXs live for pricing. More to follow. 🚀

Almost every top blockchain ecosystem reached it's stride shortly after introductions of L2's. Economically, L2's decrease transaction expense and latency, naturally leading to a surge in volume for their L1 foundations. Here's a comparison of Cardano scaling solutions (Midgard, Leios, and Hydra), versus competitive ecosystems. These Cardano scaling solutions will be rolling out over the next year, with potentially transformative impact on the ecosystem. Full comparison can be seen here: surgecardano.com/l2-comparis…

We’re excited to announce we’ve officially completed our in-house pricing system. This is core to Surge, as it makes it possible to run automated trading strategies on Cardano with real-time price accuracy (sub 1-second latency). All pool state changes are detected directly on-chain, with no oracle dependency. Thanks for the continued support 🫡

Arbitrage fundamentals: A CNT has different prices on different DEXs. Buy low on one, sell high on another. Pocket the difference. Doing this manually requires active attention and calculations. Surge automates it. It continuously monitors prices and calculates live profit opportunities after slippage, pool/DEX fees, and liquidity users have made available for trades. Whenever there is an opportunity that meets your requirements, two trades are automatically executed. You profit by stabilizing the market. Arbitrage closes price gaps, so every trader gets a fairer price no matter which DEX they use. Coming soon to Surge.
