, Initial Allocation
,Number of Grids
, Quantity per Grid
and Expire in
.- 1.Price range: This refers to the lowest and the highest prices you want to trade within. No grid orders will exceed the range. Picking a sensible price range that is not too wide, that you believe the market price will fluctuate within for as long as possible will lead to stable returns.
- 2.Initial allocation: This is the initial funds locked to run a strategy.
- 3.Number of grids: This is the number of grid orders running simultaneously within your grid strategy. The minimum number of grid orders is 2, and the maximum is 255.
- 4.Quantity per grid: This is the quantity to be bought or sold per grid order, which is the same for all grid orders. In the mobile version, this parameter cannot be directly configured; it is automatically calculated through other parameters.
- 5.Grid Width: This is an important parameter that determines a grid strategy's profitability. Grid Width = (Sell Price - Buy Price) / Sell Price. The increase in grid width can enhance the profit from each "low buy" and "high sell", but it can also decrease the number of orders executed during price fluctuations.
- 6.Expire in: The grid strategy automatically expires when the validity period elapses, and grid orders are automatically cancelled. The default validity period is 180 days, and the maximum is 365 days. Click "Advanced" to proceed with the configuration.
