What is Grid Trading Strategy?

Place a grid of buy and sell orders across a price range to profit from volatility.

How Grid Trading Strategy Works

Grid trading sets up a ladder of buy orders below the current price and sell orders above. As price oscillates, orders get filled automatically, generating profit from the bouncing. Works best in ranging markets.
