Grid Trading

Overview​

Grid trading is a rules-based strategy that places a series of buy and sell orders at predefined price intervals within a range. It aims to harvest volatility without predicting direction, buying lower and selling higher as price oscillates through the grid.

Required Parameters​

  • Platform: Jupiter, AsterDEX, or Hyperliquid (more to come)
  • Wallet: The wallet that will execute trades
  • Base Asset: The token to trade (e.g., Ethereum)
  • Quote Asset: Typically USDC or USDT
  • Lower Band: The lowest price point in the grid
  • Upper Band: The highest price point in the grid
  • Grid Spacing: Distance between each price level, in percentage
  • Total Investment: Total allocation in quote/base asset value

Advanced Features​

Compounding​

Each completed trade compounds into the next. After accounting for any fees, the executed proceeds are rolled into subsequent orders to maximize capital efficiency and potential profitability.

Trailing Up​

If market price moves above the upper band, the grid can trail upward: a new step is added above the current top step, while the lowest step is removed. You can set a maximum number of trailing steps or leave it unlimited.

Trailing Down​

If market price moves below the lower band, the grid can trail downward: a new step is added below the current bottom step, while the highest step is removed. You can set a maximum number of trailing steps or leave it unlimited.
