Binance Futures Grid Trading AI Parameters Guide

2022-01-19 02:25
Grid trading is a strategic tool to automate buy and sell orders at preset intervals and preset price ranges in Binance Futures. The feature is designed to help users make profits on small price fluctuations as it performs best in volatile and sideways markets.
Traders can customize and set grid parameters on their own to define a range to profit from price volatility.
We acknowledge that not so many users know how to set parameters to build their own grid trading strategy. For this reason, we recommend AI-based parameters to help improve user experience and reduce the learning curve. These include lower price limit, upper price limit, and grid count.
With the AI function, anyone is able to create a grid trading strategy with just one click.

How to use grid trading AI-based parameters?

1. Go to [Futures] and click [Trading Bots] - [Futures Grid].
2. Go to the [AI] tab on the right to check the recommended parameters and enter your investment amount.
3. Once you've decided the amount of margin that you want to allocate to your grid trading strategy, click [Create], and confirm your grid order so the system automatically places buy or sell orders at the preset prices. Please note that the AI-based parameters are set in a Neutral direction and in Arithmetic Mode by default.
In addition, please note that the AI-based parameters function won’t work when there isn’t enough trading history on a given asset. Under such circumstances, you’ll have to set the parameters manually as explained here or click [Copy parameters to Manual settings] to modify the lower price, upper price, and grid number.

How are the AI-based parameters calculated?

Upper & Lower Price

  • Upper Band = MA + bbm * Standard Deviation
  • Lower Band = MA - bbm * Standard Deviation

Grid Number

Grid Number = (1 + buffer) * (grid_upper_limit - grid_lower_limit) / ATR
Notes:
  • Buffer is currently set to 20%;
  • ATR period selection:
    • For 7 days: use 30-minute candlesticks for the past 168 periods;
    • For 30 days: use 1-hour candlesticks for the past 360 periods;
    • For 180 days: use 2-hour candlesticks for the past 1080 periods;
