Grid Trading

What is Grid Trading?

Grid trading is an automated strategy that places buy and sell orders at predefined price intervals within a specified range. It generates profit by capitalizing on price oscillations, making it effective in both trending and ranging markets.

How Grid Trading Works on Helix

1. Define Your Grid

   • Set the price range (upper and lower bounds).

   • Choose the number of grids to divide the range into equal price intervals.

2. Initial Balance Setup

   • Deposit both base and quote assets.

   • Initial market orders rebalance your assets to match the grid strategy, ensuring optimal performance.

   • Example: For a $1800–$2200 ETH/USDT grid, the bot adjusts your assets to match the grid's middle point.

3. Automated Trading

   • Places buy orders at lower grid levels and sell orders at upper levels.

   • Continuously rebalances positions as the market moves.

4. Profit Generation

   • Profits are realized each time the price crosses a grid line.

   • Earn from market volatility, with profits accumulating in both base and quote assets.
