Before using the futures grid strategy, users should understand the relevant key terms and definitions of various parameters to better manage the strategy. <h2>Futures Grid Related Vocabulary:</h2>Futures Grid: A futures grid strategy is an automated strategy for trading contracts by buying low and selling high within a specific price range. Users only need to set the highest and lowest prices of the range and decide on the number of grids to start the strategy.Long Grid: Suitable for upward oscillating markets, it automatically buys low and sells high.Short Grid: Suitable for downward oscillating markets, it automatically sells high and buys low.Neutral Grid: Suitable for oscillating markets, automatically buying low and selling high or vice versa.AI Strategy: Use system-recommended grid strategy parameters directly (Recommendation logic: Parameters suitable for recent market conditions are recommended after backtesting 7 days of market data and combining it with an intelligent algorithm).Manual Creation: Set parameters and trigger conditions based on your own judgment of the oscillation range of the market. <h2>Order Parameters:</h2><ul><li>Highest Price: The upper limit of the grid trading price range. Orders will stop being executed when the market price is higher than this.</li><li>Lowest Price: The lower limit of the grid trading price range. Orders will stop being executed when the market price is lower than this.</li><li>Price Range: A price range formed by the set highest and lowest prices. If the price oscillates within this range, the strategy robot will help users arbitrage by buying low and selling high.</li><li>Number of Grids: The number of grid cells, with the system dividing the price range into corresponding portions for order placement.</li><li>Leverage Multiples: The leverage multiple used in contract trading within the strategy. The maximum allowed leverage is currently 150x.</li><li>Trigger Price: The grid starts running when the market price hits the set price.</li><li>Investment Amount: The capital invested in the grid strategy, where the maximum available equals the maximum transferable amount in the strategy wallet.</li><li>Take Profit/Stop Loss Price: The strategy terminates when the market price hits the set price.</li><li>Arithmetic Mode: Indicates that the price difference between each grid is the same (e.g., 1,2,3,4).</li><li>Single Grid Profit: Single grid price difference * min(quantity bought in that grid range, quantity sold in that grid range).</li><li>Grid Profit: The sum of profits from all individual grids within the grid range.</li><li>Available Funds: Funds in the strategy wallet available for futures grid trading.</li><li>Investment Amount: The scale of available funds after using leverage, Investment Amount = Invested Margin * Leverage.</li><li>Estimated Liquidation Price for Longs: Before the strategy runs, assuming all long orders in the grid are filled, the estimated liquidation price when the maximum number of long positions is opened.</li><li>Estimated Liquidation Price for Shorts: Before the strategy runs, assuming all short orders in the grid are filled, the estimated liquidation price when the maximum number of short positions is opened.</li><li>(Position Parameter) Liquidation Price: The actual estimated liquidation price of the current position.</li></ul> <h2>Profit and Loss Parameters:</h2><ul><li>Total Revenue: The total revenue since the grid strategy started running. Total Revenue = Grid Profit + Floating Profit/Loss.</li><li>Grid Profit: The realized profit and loss generated by grid trading, accumulating all grid pair profits minus transaction fees.</li><li>Floating Profit/Loss: The floating profit or loss generated by the rise or fall of the base currency of the current currency pair (the latest price of the base currency of the currency pair compared to the average purchase price). Floating Profit/Loss = (Current Price - Average Buy Price) * Current Position.</li><li>Annualized Return = Total Profit and Loss / Total Investment Amount x 365 days x 24 hours x 60 minutes / Operation Duration (minutes) * 100%</li><li>Grid Profit = Total Investment Amount x 365 days x 24 hours x 60 minutes / Operation Duration (minutes) * 100%</li></ul> <h3>Disclaimer</h3>Futures grid trading is a tool and not financial or investment advice from BYDFi.

Since this is a neutral grid, no position is opened immediately. Buy orders are placed below the current price. Sell orders are placed above the current price. No order is placed in the grid closest to the market price.Each grid order size is calculated as: 100*10 / ((26500+26600+26700+26800+26900+27000)*(1+0.002)) = 0.006BTC Initial Order Placement:<table style="width: 100%;"><tbody><tr><th colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Price</th><th colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Order Type</th></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">26,500</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Buy</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">26,600</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Buy</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">26,700</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">No Order</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">26,800</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Sell</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">26,900</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Sell</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">27,000</td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="auto" style="text-align: center;">Sell</td></tr></tbody></table> Grid Execution Example: 1.

This effectively helps users keep up with market fluctuations and profit from them. What is a Futures GridA futures grid applies the grid trading strategy to contract trading. After choosing a long or short position: for example, long, based on the grid's set price range and number of grids, hold a long position, buy more when the price drops, and sell to close the position when the price rises, thus making a profit from low buying and high selling. Similarly, for a short position, open a short at a high level and close the short at a low level. Scenarios Suitable for Futures GridsThe core of futures grids is "oscillation arbitrage," so it's suitable to use futures grids when expecting a longer period of oscillating market. Futures grids can also have a certain long or short bias. A long grid only opens and closes long positions, suitable for upward oscillating markets, and a short grid only opens and closes short positions, suitable for downward oscillating markets. A neutral grid opens shorts/closes shorts above and opens longs/closes longs below the market price at the time the strategy starts. Users can choose the appropriate grid type based on their market predictions.<ul><li style="text-align: left;">Futures Long Grid: Used when predicting an oscillating upward price trend.
