  A sweep in cryptocurrency trading refers to the process of automatically transferring funds from one account to another in order to take advantage of price discrepancies or to optimize trading strategies. It works by continuously monitoring the market and executing trades based on predefined rules. The purpose of a sweep is to maximize profits by capitalizing on short-term price movements or to rebalance portfolio allocations. It is a common practice among professional traders and algorithmic trading systems.

  So, imagine you have two cryptocurrency exchange accounts, Account A and Account B. Account A has a higher balance of a certain cryptocurrency, while Account B has a lower balance. In order to optimize your trading strategy, you can set up a sweep that automatically transfers excess funds from Account A to Account B whenever certain conditions are met. This allows you to maintain a balanced portfolio and take advantage of trading opportunities without manual intervention.
