Perpetual Grid

Grid Direction (Perpetuals Only)

Each grid can have a directional bias:

• Neutral (default) Standard grid behavior — buys below, sells above, no directional bias

• Long Buys across all levels at startup → builds long exposure → then runs the grid (buy below, sell above) with long bias

• Short Sells across all levels at startup → builds short exposure → then runs the grid (buy below, sell above) with short bias

Changing direction triggers a partial reset:

• Exposure and PnL are preserved

• Orders are recalculated

Trailing Up & Down

Trailing automatically shifts the grid range when price moves beyond it.

How it works

If price moves beyond the range by more than one grid step:

• The entire range shifts in that direction

• The same logic applies in both upward and downward directions

Constraints

• Upper bound: Trailing Up

• Lower bound: Trailing Down

Example

• Initial range: [90, 110] with grid step of 2

• Trailing Up: 130

• Price → 120 → New range: [100, 120]

• Price → 135 → Capped at [110, 130]

Validation Rules

• Trailing Down must be at least one grid step below the Price Lower Limit

• Trailing Up must be at least one grid step above the Price Upper Limit

• If price stops are set:

  • Lower Stop must be below Trailing Down

  • Upper Stop must be above Trailing Up
