Interface

Every control on the dashboard, in the order it appears. Read this alongside the strategy overview — each field shapes the ladder described there.

📷 Screenshot: the full form (strategy selector, parameter fields, buttons).

Two groups behave differently once a cycle is running:

• Build parameters define the ladder and are locked while the bot runs — they only take effect on the next Calculate.
• Runtime parameters (marked 🟢 below) can be changed live; the change is written to the running cycle on the fly.

Strategy direction

Long / Short

The direction of the whole strategy.

• Long — the ladder sits below price. You buy the dips and close higher. Use when you expect a range or an uptrend.
• Short — mirrored: the ladder sits above price, you sell the rallies and close lower.

Clicking Long or Short also pulls your Available balance from the exchange for that pair.

Build parameters

These build the ladder. Locked while a cycle runs.

Available balance

The budget the entire grid is sized from. It is fetched from the exchange when you click Long/Short.

• You may reduce it to trade with less than your full balance.
• Do not inflate it above what you actually hold — the grid would plan orders the account can't cover.

Order Size

The size of the first order. It must be at least the exchange's minimum for the pair; setting it about +5% above that minimum is the usual safe margin. Every deeper rung grows from this first size according to the progression.

Profit

The target profit of the whole-position close, in percent. Typically ≤ 1%; the optimal range is 0.2–0.5%. This margin (plus commission) is added above your average entry to price the closing order.

Exchange commission

Your Binance commission, in percent. Binance is generally 0.25%, but you may qualify for a 0.1% bonus rate — set whichever applies to you. The bot folds this into the close price so the target profit is net of fees.

Progression strategy

How the order size grows as the grid goes deeper:

• Progressive — each step is scaled by a fixed multiplier.
• Fibonacci — sizes follow the Fibonacci sequence.

This governs how quickly the deposit is consumed down the ladder. Fibonacci is the most effective of the two.

Martingail

The Martingale factor. It controls the gap of the closing order (the final sale) and how the end of the series behaves:

• Higher → the end-of-series close triggers more effectively and more often, but the balance depletes very quickly.
• Lower → the grid is very wide with good percentage overlap, but the final order sits further away than you'd want.

Guide ranges: min 25–35 · optimal 35–80 · excellent 80–100+.

Progressive step

Controls the overlap % between rungs — the price distance between drops (Long) or rises (Short).

• More overlap (> 20%) → lower risk (good), but orders fill less often (bad).
• Find the balance for how much currency your account holds.

Indent price

The distance between the first order and the current price — how far below (Long) / above (Short) the market the ladder starts.

Runtime parameters 🟢

Changeable while the bot runs; written to the live cycle on the fly.

Active orders 🟢

How many orders sit live on the book at once. The bot keeps this many resting and places deeper ones as shallower rungs fill.

Request frequency 🟢

The polling period for the whole series, in milliseconds — how often the bot checks order and price state. Lower = more responsive, more API calls.

Restart 🟢

When on, the bot starts a new cycle automatically after the current series closes. When off, it stops after the current cycle completes.

Actions

Calculate

Builds the grid from the current build parameters and renders it in the table. This is a preview — nothing is sent to the exchange.

Save

Persists the calculated grid and settings for the pair, so they survive a reload and can be started later.

Start / Stop

Start begins the live cycle — the bot places orders and manages them. The button then becomes Stop, which halts the cycle. (See Managing a pair for cancelling or deleting orders.)

Stream

Beside Start/Stop, the live price ticker for the pair (e.g. BNBUSDT 556.15). It updates from the exchange stream and is the price the bot measures everything against.
