02 — Why it works

From problem to solution.

01

The Problem

In sideways markets most strategies miss opportunities — trend following doesn't work, manual order management is tedious.

02

The Solution

The bot automatically places a grid of buy-limits (below) and sell-limits (above) the current price. Each order has a take profit.

03

The Result

In range markets the bot earns passively from every price swing — closed orders are automatically re-placed.

03 — Use cases

When do I use this?

  • 01

    EURUSD has been trading in a 100-pip range for days → the grid bot places 5 buy and 5 sell limits at 20-pip intervals.

  • 02

    Price swings up and down → each filled order takes profit and is re-placed.

  • 03

    Strong trend breaks out → you manually stop the bot to limit losses.
