Wind it once. Let your money work.

Mainspring is an automated Bitcoin trading system. It watches the market every day, trades on your Kraken account when the signal fires, and logs every move while you get on with your life.

Get Mainspring See how it works

Most people are on a pogo stick.

A job, a rent payment, and nothing left over. Every hop takes effort, and the moment you stop hopping, you stop moving. Financial stability comes from adding wheels, one at a time.

Pogo stick. You trade your time for money. Stop working and the income stops.
Bicycle. You keep part of what you earn and put it to work, so it grows and compounds.
Mainspring lives here
Tricycle. Your work keeps earning after it’s done, through a product, a book, a system.
Four wheels. A team builds with you. You can step back and everything keeps rolling.

One signal. No guesswork.

Mainspring runs on a moving-average crossover on the Bitcoin daily chart, the same style of trend signal I’ve traded through every crypto cycle since 2018. When the trend turns up, you hold Bitcoin. When it turns down, you sit safely in USDT.

1
It watches the daily close
Once a day, after the Bitcoin candle closes, Mainspring pulls the price from Kraken and adds it to your own growing price history.
2
It checks the trend
Two moving averages are recalculated. If the fast one crosses the slow one, the signal flips.
3
It trades and records
On a flip, Mainspring places the order on your Kraken spot account and writes a dated line in your trade log. No flip, no trade.

A step-by-step setup guide. From a blank sheet to your first confirmation trade.

Your money never leaves your account.

Mainspring connects to Kraken with an API key you create. You give that key trade permission only and leave withdrawals switched off, so the system can buy and sell inside your account but can never move funds out.

The key is stored in a protected part of the script, not in a spreadsheet cell, and every request is signed the way Kraken requires.

You own the account, the data and the code. Mainspring just does the watching.

Built by a trader, for people with lives.

I’m Doug Lampi. I’ve spent more than 25 years trading commodities and have been running mechanical crypto signals since 2018, first by hand in spreadsheets on livestreams, then with alerts, then with automation.

Mainspring is the cleanest version of that work. One market, one signal, every step visible. It’s the system I wanted when I was still checking charts at midnight.

Trade safe and keep those losses small.

Put your savings on wheels.

Get the sheet, the script and the setup guide, and have Mainspring watching the market for you this week.

Questions

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You copy the script into your sheet, paste in your Kraken key and click a few menu items. The guide walks through each step.

Which exchange does it use?

Kraken spot. You buy and hold real Bitcoin. There’s no leverage, no shorting and no liquidation price.

How often does it trade?

Only when the trend flips. That can mean several months between trades. Most days Mainspring checks the market, records the price and does nothing.

Can I stop it or step in?

Yes, at any time. Use the manual buttons to buy or move to cash, or switch off the daily timer with one click.

Will it make money?

No system can promise that. Trend-following aims to hold Bitcoin through strong uptrends and step aside during long declines. There will be losing trades, and you should only use money you can afford to have at risk.

What’s next after Bitcoin?

Mainspring starts with one market on purpose. Additional markets are planned once the core is running smoothly.

Risk disclosure. Mainspring is a software tool and educational resource, not financial advice. Cryptocurrency is highly volatile and you can lose some or all of the money you trade. Past signals and backtests do not guarantee future results. You are responsible for your own account, API keys and trading decisions. Consult a qualified financial professional before investing.
