Enabling Advanced Grid Settings

For advanced users who want to configure more complex strategies, click the “Advanced Settings” button.


This will add the “Grid Type” option and reveal the “Grids” and “Stop” tabs.

To exit advanced mode and return to the default configuration, click “Basic Settings”.

Grid Type:

The Grid Type determines how the distance between grids is calculated. You can choose between the following options:

  • Arithmetic

    Uses a fixed price difference between grids, with all grids spaced evenly by the same price amount.

    This is the default option if no other grid type is selected.

  • Geometric

    Uses a fixed percentage difference between grids.
    Each grid is spaced according to a fixed price ratio.

  • Custom

    Allows you to manually define how grids are spaced.
    When selecting this option, you’ll be redirected to the Grids tab to configure the parameters yourself.

Grids Tab:

In this tab, you define how grids are spaced and how the amounts are allocated per grid, as well as how many orders can be placed simultaneously on the exchange.

When using Arithmetic or Geometric grid types, the following parameters are available:

  • Price Difference

    Defines the percentage difference between the first grid and the second grid.
    The second grid is placed at the first grid price minus the defined percentage.

    Example:

    First Grid Price = 100
    Price Difference = 1%

    The first three grids will be placed at:

    • 100

    • 99 (100 − 100×1%)

    • 98.01 (99 − 99×1%)

  • Amount Scale

    Determines the multiplier between the amount invested in each successive grid.
    This sets the ratio of capital allocation across grids.

  • Number of Active Orders

    Defines the maximum number of active entry orders the bot is allowed to place simultaneously on the exchange.

When selecting the Custom grid type, two additional parameters are revealed:

  • Baseline (for Price Scale)

    Defines the reference grid used to calculate the Price Scale.
    You can choose between:

    • First Grid

    • Previous Grid

  • Price Scale

    Defines the multiplier applied to the price difference starting from the second grid onward. Example:

    First Grid Price = 100
    Price Difference = 1%
    Price Scale = 2

    The first three grids will be placed at:

    • 100

    • 99 (100 − 100×1%)

    • 97.02 (99 − 99×1%×2)

These additional parameters allow you to fully control how the distance between grids is calculated.

Stop Tab:

To add a stop-loss to your Grid Bot, enable the “Stop” toggle.

Stop-Loss Distance Percent

The bot will place a stop-loss sell limit order at a percentage distance from the selected stop-loss baseline.

Stop-Loss Baseline

Defines the reference price for the stop-loss calculation.
The available options are First Grid, Last Grid, or Average Entries.

Stop-Loss Timeout

Allows you to delay the execution of a stop-loss order for a defined period.
This can be useful if you expect short-term price fluctuations and want to avoid closing a position immediately when the stop-loss price is reached.
