Downward Price Protection: How it Works

The Bullish Grid Assist is designed to help you navigate both rising and falling markets with ease. Let's break down how the Downward Price Protection (DPP) feature works, ensuring you can set it up confidently, even if you're new to trading bots.

Setting Up for Success

• Start by Setting Your Parameters: You'll input four key details:

  • Your initial investment amount.

  • The number of grid levels you want.

  • The step size between each grid level (Grid Step).

  • The limit at which the Downward Price Protection kicks in (Stop Downward Price Protection Limit).

• Understand Your Investment: Each grid level will have the same investment value, ensuring a consistent approach across your strategy.

Operational Flow: From Activation to Protection

• Activate and Monitor: Once your Bullish Grid Assist is up and running, it continuously tracks market data to support your strategy visualization.

• Protection Activation: If the market price dips below your lowest grid level, the DPP feature springs into action, setting the Grid status to “Protect”. It checks if you have enough QUOTE currency to buy more at a lower price.

• Buying Low:

  • Enough Funds: If you have sufficient QUOTE currency, a simulated buy action is generated one grid step below the last routed level, aiming to illustrate a lower‑price entry.

  • Insufficient Funds: If funds are low, the status changes to “Funds”, signaling you to top up your wallet. But don't worry, your existing orders continue to run.

• Market Recovery: Once the price climbs back up to your initial grid level:

  • All sell actions placed during the protection phase are simulated.

  • The system cancels any unrouted buy orders.

  • DPP resets, and the Grid status goes back to “Running”.

• Managing Order Limits: To stay within the exchange's order limits, the module might cancel orders farthest from the current price temporarily, making room for new, more relevant orders.

Example: Navigating a Market Downturn with ETH/USDT

• Initial Setup: You invest 1000 USDT into an ETH/USDT grid assist, with a range from 1000 to 2000 USDT, spread over 10 grid levels, each step sized at 100 USDT, and DPP enabled.

• As the Market Fluctuates:

  • Price Drops to 995 USDT: DPP activates, maintaining a protective stance, ready to buy more at 900 USDT if the price falls further.

  • Falling to 900 USDT: Routes a buy order at 900, then sets a sell order at 1000, preparing for the market to rebound.

  • Insufficient Funds: If your wallet runs low, the Grid bot alerts you to add funds, ensuring your strategy remains active.

• Recovery Phase: As the market recovers, sell orders are routed, and the bot adapts, turning off DPP and resuming normal operation once the price is back within your grid range.

Upward Price Protection:

The Bearish Grid Assist is your ally in capturing profits and managing risks when the market trends upwards unexpectedly. Here's how the Upward Price Protection (UPP) feature safeguards your investment and keeps your strategy on track.

Setting the Stage

• Initial Setup: Begin by configuring a few critical settings:

  • The amount you're starting with (initial investment).

  • How many levels your grid will have.

  • The percentage step between each grid level (Grid Step).

  • The highest price at which UPP activates (Upward Price Protection Limit).

• Investment Allocation: The investment for each grid level is consistently calculated, just like in a standard setup.

How It Works: From Activation to Adjustment

• Activation: With your Bearish Grid Assist live, it vigilantly watches the market price.

• Triggering UPP: If the market climbs above your highest grid level, UPP kicks in, marking the Grid status as “Protect”. It then checks for adequate BASE currency in your wallet to make strategic sell orders at a higher price.

• Routing Orders:

  • Adequate Funds: With enough BASE currency, it places a sell order one grid step above the last routed order, aiming to profit from the higher price.

  • Insufficient Funds: Should your BASE currency be lacking, the Grid's status shifts to “Error”, signaling a need for more funds. Meanwhile, the system keeps running existing orders as it awaits your action to replenish the wallet.

• Market Reversal: When prices return to your starting grid level:

  • It routes any protective buy orders set during the UPP phase.

  • Cancels remaining sell orders.

  • Resets UPP, preparing for future market climbs with the Grid status reverting to “Running”.

• Order Management: To comply with exchange order limits, it might temporarily remove the orders farthest from the current market price, ensuring new, relevant orders can be placed.

Practical Example: ETH/USDT Bearish Grid Strategy

• Initial Conditions: You've set up a Bearish Grid for ETH/USDT with 1000 USDT, covering a range from 1000 to 2000 USDT across 10 grid levels, each with a 100 USDT step, and UPP enabled.

• Market Movements:

  • Rise to 2300 USDT: UPP activates, routing all sell orders at higher levels, and adjusting the grid to neutral status. If the market keeps rising, UPP places new sell orders to capture gains.

  • Fund Shortfalls: If your BASE currency runs low, the Grid alerts you to the need for more funds to continue capitalizing on upward trends.

• Resetting for Stability: Once the market dips back to your initial level, buy orders are filled, and sell orders above are canceled. UPP deactivates, and the Grid status is “Running”, ready for the next cycle.

Navigating Upward Trends with Ease

The Bearish Grid Assist with UPP is designed to optimize your trading in a rising market. By understanding and utilizing UPP, you're better equipped to manage unexpected uptrends, secure profits, and minimize exposure to sudden market shifts.
