3Commas offers five Grid Bot strategies tailored to different market conditions.
Rising Strategy (Bullish Markets)
Best for: Markets trending upwards.
How it works: The bot places more buy orders than sell orders, ensuring that trading starts with a smaller amount of base currency (Spot trading, not leveraged).
High price is set closer to the current price, reducing the risk of a significant decrease in investment value in case of a sudden price drop.
Trailing Up: Enabled by default, allowing the bot to continue trading if the price moves beyond the initial range.
Minimum requirements:
1 Sell line
9 Buy lines (automatically increased based on balance).

Reversal Strategy (Futures: Long & Short)
Best for: Futures trading with both long and short positions.
How it works:The bot divides the price range into upper (short trades) and lower (long trades) zones.
If the price moves down, buy orders trigger long positions.
If the price moves up, sell orders trigger short positions.
Supports leverage up to 125x.

How Does the Reversal Grid Bot Work?
The Reversal Grid Bot dynamically switches between long and short positions based on price movement within a defined range:
If the price drops and a Buy order is triggered first → The bot opens a Long position with a margin equal to Position per level.
If the price continues to drop → The bot adds to the Long position with each executed Buy order.
If the price reverses and a Sell order is triggered → The bot reduces the Long position by Position per level.
If the price crosses into the upper zone → The bot closes the Long position and, if the price rises by 1 Step, opens a Short position.
If the price rises first and a Sell order is triggered → The bot opens a Short position with a margin equal to Position per level.
If the price continues to rise → The bot adds to the Short position with each executed Sell order.
If the price reverses and a Buy order is triggered → The bot reduces the Short position by Position per level.
If the price crosses into the lower zone → The bot closes the Short position and, if the price drops by 1 Step, opens a Long position.
PLEASE NOTE!
Hedge Mode must be OFF – The Reversal Grid Bot cannot function if there is already an open position on the exchange.
If Hedge Mode is ON, the bot cannot open a new Long or Short position if a conflicting position already exists.
If another bot opens a position before the Reversal Grid Bot does, an error will be generated when the Reversal bot attempts to open a trade in the same direction.
To The Moon Strategy (Futures: Long Position)
Best for: Futures trading in an upward trend.
How it works: The bot starts with a long position and buys more as the price rises.
Buy orders increase the position, while sell orders reduce it.
High price is set closer to the market rate, enabling trading to start with a smaller initial margin while mitigating the risk of a sudden price drop.
Trailing Up: Enabled to adapt if the price rises beyond the configured range.

Falling Strategy (Futures: Short Position)
Best for: Futures trading in a downward trend.
How it works: The bot starts with a short position.
Sell orders increase the position, while buy orders reduce it.
By setting the Low price closer to the current market rate, this approach enables trading to commence with a smaller initial margin, mitigating the risk of significant value decline in the event of a sudden price drop.
Trailing Down: Enabled to adapt if the price moves beyond the configured range.
Supported Exchanges:
Binance USDT-M

Futures Grid Bot: Direction Types
For Futures accounts, you can select one of three trading directions:
1. Long – The bot starts with a long position, buying at lower prices and selling at higher prices.
2. Short – The bot starts with a short position, selling at higher prices and buying back at lower prices.
3. Reversal – No initial position. The bot automatically switches between long and short positions based on price movement. In the upper zone, the bot exclusively engages in short trades, while in the lower zone, it exclusively takes long positions.
📌 Trading with leverage can enhance profits but also increases risk. Always use proper risk management.
