Bot Table

Web version:

Mobile version:

If you have active or closed Grid bots, you’ll see a bot table on the Grid bots page.

  • Filters: Use the menu to filter between active and closed bots across all exchanges.

  • Sorting Options:

    • Both Active & Closed Bots can be sorted by:

      • Bot Name

      • Result

      • Profit

      • ROI

      • Closed Orders

      • In Trading

    • Active Bots Only: Active Orders

    • Closed Bots Only: Date

  • Search Function: Quickly locate a bot using the search bar by entering a coin name or a keyword from your notes.


Results and Profits

At the top of the bot table, you’ll find an overview of your bots' performance:

  • Investments: The bot’s total value at launch.

  • Results:

    • Active bots: Current bot value.

    • Closed bots: Value at closure.

  • Profits: Total realized and unrealized PnL minus fees.

The displayed data updates based on filters (Active/Closed) and search criteria (specific coin or notes).


Closed Orders Tracking

The Closed Orders section provides greater transparency on realized profits, linking orders to their entry points for improved clarity.

  • Click ⋮ (three dots) next to a bot and select View History.

  • A dedicated Closed Orders table provides detailed breakdowns.

  • Orders that closed a position include their corresponding entry order, making it easier to understand how profit is calculated.


Customizing Display Modes

Modify how your bot’s results are displayed via the settings menu (filter icon).

Available Display Modes

  • USD / Crypto Mode:

    • Display results in USD or crypto (base asset).

    • Recommended for Long bots or bots taking profit in the base asset.

  • BTC / Crypto Mode:

    • Show profits in BTC or crypto.

    • Best for Short bots, where profits are in base currency.

  • Composite / Split:

    • Composite: Combines realized and unrealized profit.

    • Split: Separates profit into:

      • Realized Profit (rPNL) → Completed deals.

      • Unrealized Profit (uPNL) → Open positions.


Profit Calculation

Spot Grid Bots

  • Profit from initial orders is reinvested.

  • Trading profits are calculated based on buy/sell pairings.

Futures Grid Bots

  • Realized Profit Formula (rPNL): rPNL=Average Closing Price − Average Entry Price

  • This method compares the average entry price with the price at position closure to determine profitability.

Why Do Some Orders Show as a Loss on the Exchange?

  • Uses one continuous position with an average entry price.

  • Orders closing below the average entry price may appear as a loss on the exchange.

  • However, the bot is not losing unless it fails to rebalance at a better price.

Example

Step

Action

Bot Position ($)

1

Open order at $1000

$100

2

Price drops -1% → Increase position

$110

3

Price drops -2% → Increase position

$120

4

Price drops -3% → Increase position

$130

5

Price rises to -2% → Reduce position

$120

  • On the exchange, this still appears as a loss, but in reality, the bot has gained 1% on one order.

  • Over time, the bot improves PNL as it takes advantage of price fluctuations.

Key Takeaway: Futures Grid bots require patience to maximize profits.

📌 Exporting Orders: The Closed Orders table can be exported to XLSX for further analysis.

rPNL for the futures grid bot is calculated not from the price of the previous entry order, but from the average price of all previous entry orders. Therefore, when the current price is worse than the average entry price, rPNL on the line will be negative, and when it's better, it will be positive. This doesn't affect the bot's operation; only the way information is displayed has changed.
