Don't have time to read an article? We've got you covered! Check out our tutorial video below.
In this help article we will be going over how to build your first portfolio after signing up for a Shrimpy Pro subscription.
Step 1: Select the "Automation" page
We will create our first portfolio by going to the “Automation” page and clicking “Create a New Automation”. You will see a follow-up screen asking you if you wish to pick your own assets or create an index. You'll want to choose "Pick Assets" which will lead you to the screen below. This is where you will select your assets.
Step 2: Add Assets to Your Portfolio
Clicking the “Select Asset” button will present a popup with the assets you can select to include in your portfolio. Select the assets you wish to have in your portfolio and save your asset selection list.

Step 3: Select Portfolio Allocations
Once you’ve selected your assets, it’s time to pick the percent allocations you would like to maintain for each asset. Essentially, select how much of each asset you want to keep in your portfolio. In addition to the asset allocations, don’t forget to select a “Rebalance Period” on the right side. Once you’ve selected your asset allocations, save your portfolio and your rebalance period.
Note: Selecting a rebalance period is not mandatory. You can still allocate your portfolio by leaving the rebalance period as “never” and continuing to the next step.
Step 4: Select the portfolio to automate
Once the automation has been saved, we must select "Start Automation". Once we select this button, we will see the different portfolios we can begin automating with this automation. Select the portfolio you want to start automating here.

Step 5: Rebalance Your Portfolio
The “Rebalance Now” button found in the Automation section on your Dashboard is the way you let Shrimpy Pro know you want to perform trades immediately. Once you hit that button, it will perform all of the necessary trades to reach the portfolio allocations that were specified in your portfolio in the last step. If your portfolio has already been created and is close to your target allocations, it will simply realign your allocations to match the target allocations you set.
Congratulations! You have successfully set up your first cryptocurrency portfolio! In order to manage your cryptocurrency, all you need to do is log into Shrimpy Pro and adjust your portfolio whenever you need.
