Editing Parameters on Running Spot Grid Bots
Summary
The document explains a product feature that lets users change the range and grid quantity of an active spot grid bot without closing and restarting it. These adjustments are presented as a way to adapt a configured grid to changing market conditions while keeping the bot running. The article is a description of platform behavior, not a guide to choosing profitable grid levels or evaluating the strategy’s risks.
Several constraints affect how edits work. Trailing up and down is disabled after an edit, and existing advanced start and stop conditions remain unchanged and cannot be edited. If both asset balances are insufficient, the user must add quote assets to meet the new minimum; adding base assets is not supported. Profit and loss is reinvested by default after editing. The article says lead trader changes were not shared with marketplace subscribers at that stage, and mentioned a planned futures bot extension for a later period. It provides no performance data or examples showing how parameter changes affect returns.
Key ideas
- Users can change the grid range and grid quantity while a spot grid bot is running.
- Editing turns off trailing up and down, while advanced start and stop conditions remain unchanged.
- When balances do not meet minimum requirements, users must add quote assets rather than base assets.
- Profit and loss is reinvested by default after a parameter edit.
- The feature description gives no evidence about whether edits improve trading performance.
