Short Futures Grid Scenario
1. Set parameters
Grid Type: Short grid
Cap Price: 60,000 USDT
Base Price: 40,000 USDT
Number of Grids: 5 grids
Amount Per Order: 0.001 BTC
Current BTC Price: 51,000 USDT
Grid Mode: Arithmetic
Leverage: 2x
2. The bot in action
Phase 1: Initial orders
According to the parameters above, the grids for order placement are 40,000 USDT, 44,000 USDT, 48,000 USDT, 52,000 USDT, 56,000 USDT, and 60,000 USDT. Order placement is subject to the following rules: no orders will be placed approaching the last price; if the market has good depth, sell orders with prices set below the last price will be placed and executed instantly to establish positions. Subsequently, buy orders will be placed at those grids for matching and locking in profits. Therefore, three sell orders will be placed and executed at the market price for the 40,000 USDT, 44,000 USDT, and 48,000 USDT grids; and three buy orders will then be immediately placed for the same grids. The other two sell orders placed for the 56,000 USDT and 60,000 USDT grids will be pending execution.

At this point, a short position of 0.003 BTC is established, with the execution prices of 51,000 USDT.
Phase 2: Orders after market movement
Assuming the BTC price drops to 48,000 USDT, the buy order at 48,000 USDT is executed. Accordingly, a sell order at 52,000 USDT is placed to lock in profits.
The order updates are as follows:
Order Price (USDT) |

At this point, the short position decreases to 0.002 BTC, with the execution prices of 51,000 USDT.
Phase 3: Order matching for profits
The 48,000 USDT buy order executed at the phase 2 is matched with the 51,000 USDT sell order executed in Phase 1, generating a profit. The profit obtained is calculated as follows: 51,000 * 0.001 - 48,000 * 0.001= 3 USDT (fees not deducted). As the market fluctuates, orders can be continuously placed and executed, allowing for ongoing profits.
Special Scenario - Exceeding Price Range: If the market price moves outside your specified range, you can choose to either terminate your bot or wait for the price to return to your set range. If you choose to terminate, all open orders will be canceled, and your position will be closed at the current market price.

Phase 1: Order placement
According to the parameters above, the grids for order placement are 40,000 USDT, 44,000 USDT, 48,000 USDT, 52,000 USDT, 56,000 USDT, and 60,000 USDT. Order placement is subject to the following rule: no orders will be placed approaching the last price. Therefore, two sell orders will be placed at 56,000 USDT and 60,000 USDT; and three buy orders will be placed at 40,000 USDT, 44,000 USDT, and 48,000 USDT.

Phase 2: Order execution
Assume BTC falls to 48,000 USDT
The buy order at 48,000 USDT is executed, and then a sell order is placed at 52,000 USDT, as it is higher than the market price.
The order updates are as follows:
Order Price (USDT) |

At this point, a long position of 0.001 BTC is established, with the execution price of 48,000 USDT.
Phase 3: Order matching for profits
Assume BTC rises to 52,000 USDT
The sell order at 52,000 USDT is executed, which matches the buy order executed in Phase 2 for a profit. The profit obtained is calculated as follows: 52,000 * 0.001 - 48,000 * 0.001= 4 USDT (fees not deducted). A new buy order is then placed at 48,000 USDT.
At this point, you have no positions. As the market fluctuates, orders can be continuously placed and executed, allowing for ongoing profits.
