Spot Grid User Guide

Trading Bots

Spot grid is a passive quantitative trading bot that profits from price fluctuations without forecasting market trends. It is especially effective in the range-bound conditions common in the crypto market. By setting a price range and dividing it into multiple grids, the system automatically places buy and sell orders within each grid, repeatedly executing a "buy low, sell high" approach. The key advantages include: - Automated execution: Once the bot is launched, it runs 24/7 without the need for market monitoring. - Risk diversification: Place multiple orders at different price levels to reduce the risk of single-price exposure. - High market adaptability: Ideal for range-bound markets and highly volatile assets. - Robust platform support: Gate offers powerful features, including AI recommendations, copy trading, trailing grid, and auto-reinvest, that significantly enhance efficiency and flexibility. However, the bot has its limitations, including directional market risk, profit erosion by trading fees, capital efficiency, etc. Proper parameter settings, risk management, and the use of trend-following tools are key to improving the effectiveness of spot grid trading in practice.
