Grid Trading: Automate Range Strategies

Grid trading places buy and sell orders at fixed intervals inside a range. It works well in sideways markets and can be combined with copy trading so followers mirror your grid.

Grid trading diagram
Grid levels are spaced evenly inside the chosen price range.

Setting up a grid

  1. Open Grid from the sidebar.
  2. Select the symbol and time frame.
  3. Set the upper and lower price bounds.
  4. Choose the number of grid levels.
  5. Set total capital allocation and start the bot.

Trending markets

Grid bots lose money in strong trending markets because they keep buying as price falls or selling as price rises. Use stop ranges to limit damage.
