How to Get Started with Futures Grid Bot

Toobit

Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating your first Futures Grid Bot on Toobit.

Trade via Trading Bot Page

Step 1: Please click Trading Bots in the navigation bar to enter the Toobit Trading Bot page. 

Step 2：Create your Futures Grid Bot by clicking the corresponding bots, then it will guide you to go to the Create Futures Grid Bot page. The maximum amount of Futures Grid Bot can be created is 10 bots.

Step 3: You can create Futures Grid Bots in two ways:

  1. AI Strategy

Just  select the AI strategy that you want to use, and then click “ USE”

b. Manual

  1. Pair: Select Derivatives trading pair

  2. Order Direction: Neutral, Long or Short

  1. Price Range: Set lower and upper price bounds

  2. No. of Grids: Enter the number of grids

Notes: 

— For Arithmetic, each grid has an equal price difference. For Geometric, each grid has an equal price ratio difference.

— Arithmetic grid is the default. If you want to use a geometric grid, you can select it in the No. of Grids column.

— The higher the number of grids, the smaller the price intervals. This means that in a volatile market your orders may be filled more frequently, but your profits would be lower, due to multiple trading fees.

  1. Leverage: Set your preferred leverage

  2. Investment: Enter the amount you wish to invest

  3. Advanced Settings (Optional) — You can optionally set the following parameters:

  • Take Profit. The Take Profit Price

  • Stop Loss. The Stop Loss Price

Then, click on Creat strategy(long) 

Following are the definitions of the two terms for your reference:

  • Take Profit: When the last price reaches the take profit price, the take profit order will be triggered, and the position will automatically be sold to lock in your profits.

  • Stop Loss: When the last price reaches the stop loss price, the stop loss order will be triggered, and the position will automatically be sold to limit your loss.

Step 4: Please double-check the grid bot information you’ve created, and then click on OK to start trading.

Your Futures Grid Bot has been successfully created!

After you click on OK, the page will automatically show your Bots for you to view your active grid bots.

You can click on Details in the running bots page that you want to view to explore more information, including current status of your Futures Grid Bot.

You can also adjust the investment amount or add TP/SL to your position from the Details. Please note that the additional investment only serves to maintain the position in order to avoid liquidation. It does not reset the Grid Bot parameters.
