Grid Trading is a type of quantitative trading, and used in traditional finance for many years. It refers to a price based on a certain price, a certain number of prices up and down the price of a certain number of orders, high to sell low to buy.

Operationally, investors divide the price fluctuation range of digital assets into several price levels based on the fluctuation of digital asset prices. The program allocates capital into every price level and pending the maker of buy order.

In practice, when the price of digital assets falls, the buy order is deal and another sell order will be pending at a higher price. Which means that the low buy order corresponds to the high sell order.

When the price of digital assets rises, the sell order is deal and another buy order will be pending at a lower price level. Which means that the low buy order is sold by high price, and then there will be the replenishment soon.

 

Based on BTC/USDT Trading Pair of Bibox Exchange

 

You can invest the USDT you hold, then buy BTC at a low price and sell it at a high price(USDT).

If you want to have a try about the Grid Trading when the BTC price is 10000 USDT, which means that the base price of BTC is P0=10000 USDT.

If you want to buy BTC when there is every 10% reduction of the price, you need to enter 10 into ‘Grid’.

The every price level of the buy order is P(n)=P(n-1) ×(1-10%)

That is, the program will

Pending the buy order of BTC in P1, P1=P0×(1-10%)=9000 USDT

Pending the buy order of BTC in P2, P2=P1×(1-10%)=8100 USDT

Pending the buy order of BTC in P3, P3=P2×(1-10%)=7290 USDT

……

 

If your capital is 10000 USDT, then to be bought in low price, sold in high price.

You need to enter 10000 into ‘USDT Buy Amount’

If you set the ratio of USDT capital used of each buy order is 20% of the total amount.

You need to enter 20 into ‘Portion’.

__29.png

The Single buy order amount is USDT Buy Amount * Portion =10000×20%= 2000 USDT

__30.png

The BTC purchase quantity of each order is Single buy order amount /P(n)

That is, the program will

Pending the buy order of BTC as 2000 USDT in P1, approximately equal to single buy order amount/P1=2000/9000≈0.22 BTC

Pending the buy order of BTC as 2000 USDT in P2, approximately equal to single buy order amount/P2=2000/8100≈0.25 BTC

Pending the buy order of BTC as 2000 USDT in P3, approximately equal to single buy order amount/P3=2000/7290≈0.27 BTC

……

 

When there is the deal of the buy order, the program will pend another sell order at a higher price.

The each price of sell order is P(n)'=P(n)×(1+10%)

That is

When the pending buy order of P1 is deal, then will be another BTC sell order at P1’price, the P1’ is P1×(1+10%)=9900 USDT

When the pending buy order of P2 is deal, then will be another BTC sell order at P2’price, the P2’ is P2×(1+10%)=8910 USDT

When the pending buy order of P3 is deal, then will be another BTC sell order at P3’price, the P3’ is P3×(1+10%)=8019 USDT

You can invest all the BTC assets you hold, then sell at a high price and buy at a low price.

If you want to have a try about Grid Trading when the price of BTC is 10000 USDT, that is the base price of BTC is P0=10000 USDT.

If you want to sell BTC when there is every 10% increase of the price, you need to enter 10 into ‘Grid’.

The price of sell order is P(n)=P(n-1)×(1+10%)

That is, the program will

Pending the sell order of BTC in P1, P1=P0×(1+10%)=11000 USDT

Pending the sell order of BTC in P2, P2=P1×(1+10%)=12100 USDT

Pending the sell order of BTC in P3, P3=P2×(1+10%)=13310 USDT

That is, the program will

Pending the sell order of 0.2 BTC in P1

Pending the sell order of 0.2 BTC in P2

Pending the sell order of 0.2 BTC in P3

……

 

When there is the deal of the sell order, the program will pend another buy order at a lower price.
