Anvil MVM Bot Cross Hatching Explained

Cross hatching is the coined process of layering multiple simultaneous trading strategies (ratios, timeframes, and amounts) on the same chart or token, creating overlapping trade patterns — much like layered strokes in art create texture and depth.

Instead of running a single ratio strategy, cross hatching stacks multiple swap setups on top of each other, using varied:
Ratios (e.g., 2:1, 3:2, 4:3)
Time Frames (e.g., 3 min, 5 min, 10 min)
Transaction Sizes (e.g., small, medium, large per swap)

This approach produces denser, multi-layered trading activity on the same token, maximizing chart action, increasing unpredictability for outsiders, and amplifying volume generation.


🔗 How Cross Hatching Works

Imagine your bot runs 3 parallel threads:

  • Thread 1: 2:1 ratio, 3-minute frame, small transactions

  • Thread 2: 3:2 ratio, 5-minute frame, medium transactions

  • Thread 3: 4:3 ratio, 10-minute frame, large transactions

They all act independently but on the same meme coin pair, creating an interwoven market action pattern.

Layered Ratios → different buy/sell intensities
Layered Timeframes → asynchronous trade timings
Layered Amounts → mixed pressure sizes on each swing

This combined execution creates a “cross-hatched” effect on the chart:

  • Some trades hit fast, some slow

  • Some buy-heavy, some sell-heavy

  • Some nibble the liquidity, others punch harder

The result is a complex, high-volume, multi-dimensional trade pattern that boosts market visibility and can even confuse tracking bots or manual observers.

Combined, this produces:

  • Rapid small-volume taps (Light Layer)

  • Medium regular pulses (Mid Pulse)

  • Slower, heavier volume surges (Heavy Swing)


Benefits of Cross Hatching

Amplifies Volume Density — multiple streams raise total activity
Diversifies Market Footprint — spreads influence across time and size
Increases Chart Complexity — harder to track or reverse-engineer
Optimizes Liquidity Pressure — balances small and large trade impacts
Creates Strategic Flexibility — adjust one layer without stopping others
