What are spot grids?

Spot grid is an automated trading bot that buys low and sells high within a specific price range. Users can start running a bot after setting the range of the lowest and highest prices and the number of grids. A trigger can also be set where the bot starts running once the market reaches the trigger price. The bot will calculate the buy low and sell high prices for each grid to place orders. When the bot keeps doing this, users will be able to gain profits from the market volatility.

Suited for sideways oscillation — buy low, sell high and cyclical arbitrage

1. Spot grid is a simple way to profit in volatile markets. When the market of the underlying asset is volatile, spot grid bots automatically buy and sell when the market price hits the preset price levels of the grid.

2. You can enable trailing grid for spot grid bots to follow the moving average. The grid moves upward or downward when the change reaches the preset percentage, securing continuous arbitrage as the market price will never exceed the upper or lower limits of the range. The trailing grid feature can significantly boost profits when compared with ordinary grid parameters.

What are futures grids?

Futures grid is designed to apply grid trading strategies to futures trading. Traders can choose to go long or short in the futures grid. When going long, a long position will be opened in a pre-defined price range with preset parameters (number of grids) to profit from the grid by buying low and selling high. You can consistently buy low and sell high with the futures grid bot to take advantage of market volatility as market prices fluctuate.

Suited for sideways oscillation — margin trading, buy low, sell high, and cyclical arbitrage

1. As with spot grid bots, futures grid bots also profit from market volatility. Futures grid bots use leverage to earn higher returns with a smaller amount of capital.

2. You can enable trailing grid for futures grid bots to follow the moving average. The grid moves upward or downward when the change reaches the preset percentage, securing continuous arbitrage as the market price will never exceed the upper or lower limits of the range. The trailing grid feature can significantly boost profits when compared with ordinary grid parameters.

What are position grids?

Position grid bots automatically buy low and sell high within a specific wide price range, with price levels determined by the system. Simply put, position grids use Bitget's grid trading bot technology to intelligently recommend parameters based on current asset prices. As long as the coin price oscillates within the position grid's price range, the bot will profit from the grid on a 24/7 basis. You may also withdraw the position grid's profits to make flexible use of your assets.

Broad price range, buy low and sell high in volatile markets

1. The grid parameters are based on intelligent algorithms backtested for optimal returns, allowing broader price ranges and reducing the possibility of grid termination.

2. Simply enter the investment amount and the system will set the grid interval and the number of grids based on a uniform price or price percentage difference between orders, and automatically buy low and sell high within a broader range.

What is spot Martingale?

The Martingale bot buys when the price goes down to reduce the average cost of investment. It is suited for users who have a positive long-term outlook on a coin but have difficulty determining the entry timing, who do not wish to miss out on the opportunity, or simply for users who want to withstand floating losses. For example, if you buy a coin at 50 USDT with the belief that the price will reach 100 USDT after some possible drops, then you can set the bot to buy more whenever the price drops by 10 USDT. When the price hits 100 USDT, you will hold more assets at a lower average price.

Suited for mid- to long-term volatile markets — buy low in batches, average out costs, and profit on the rebound

1. When prices continue to fall, Martingale bots buy low in batches and sell when the price rebounds to realize continuous, cyclical arbitrage.

2. Normal spot Martingale: Best for users who are bullish on the market but expect the price to drop before rising. After placing the base order, more safety orders can be placed at the preset intervals and multipliers.

3. Reverse spot Martingale: Best for coin holders who are bearish on the market but worried that the market may rebound first. They can sell part of their holdings and continue to sell if the price increases to maximize their profit.
