EMA Grid + Martingale Strategy (Long-Only) with CooldownTitle:
EMA Grid + Martingale Strategy (Long-Only) with Cooldown
Short Summary:
A long-only strategy combining EMA trend filters, grid-based entries, optional martingale sizing, and a cooldown feature to manage position timing and exits.
Full Description:
This strategy uses a 4-EMA trend confirmation system to detect bullish momentum, then deploys a grid-style entry method with optional martingale position sizing. It includes a cooldown mechanism to prevent reentry too soon after a completed trade cycle.
How It Works
1. Trend Confirmation: Two EMA groups (fast/slow) determine whether market conditions are bullish.
2. Initial Entry: A new position is entered when both EMA groups confirm an uptrend and no position is currently active.
3. Grid Entries: Additional long entries are placed when price drops by a defined pip distance from the last entry, respecting the maximum number of entries.
4. Martingale Sizing (Optional): Grid orders can increase in size with each level using a customizable multiplier.
5. Weighted-Average Exit: All positions close once price reaches or exceeds the average entry price plus a buffer.
6. Cooldown Timer: After closing a position set, the strategy waits a defined number of bars before opening a new grid.
Key Features
• 4 customizable EMAs for trend confirmation.
• Dynamic grid-style long entries based on pip intervals.
• Optional martingale-style position sizing.
• Weighted-average price exit logic with buffer control.
• Cooldown bar period to limit overtrading.
• Suitable for optimization and backtesting with full control over inputs.
Use Cases
• Designed for trending markets where pullbacks present entry opportunities.
• Helps manage staged entries while avoiding premature reentry.
• Ideal for testing martingale and grid-based strategies with exit precision.
Note: This strategy is for testing and educational purposes only. It does not guarantee profits and is not financial advice.
GRID
Buy The Dip - ENGThis script implements a grid trading strategy for long positions in the USDT market. The core idea is to place a series of buy limit orders at progressively lower prices below an initial entry point, aiming to lower the average entry price as the price drops. It then aims to exit the entire position when the price rises a certain percentage above the average entry price.
Here's a detailed breakdown:
1. Strategy Setup (`strategy` function):
`'거미줄 자동매매 250227'`: The name of the strategy.
`overlay = true`: Draws plots and labels directly on the main price chart.
`pyramiding = 15`: Allows up to 15 entries in the same direction (long). This is essential for grid trading, as it needs to open multiple buy orders.
`initial_capital = 600`: Sets the starting capital for backtesting to 600 USDT.
`currency = currency.USDT`: Specifies the account currency as USDT.
`margin_long/short = 0`: Doesn't define specific margin requirements (might imply spot trading logic or rely on exchange defaults if used live).
`calc_on_order_fills = false`: Strategy calculations happen on each bar's close, not just when orders fill.
2. Inputs (`input`):
Core Settings:
`lev`: Leverage (default 10x). Used to calculate position sizes.
`Investment Percentage %`: Percentage of total capital to allocate to the initial grid (default 80%).
`final entry Percentage %`: Percentage of the *remaining* capital (100 - `Investment Percentage %`) to use for the "semifinal" entry (default 50%). The rest goes to the "final" entry.
`Price Adjustment Length`: Lookback period (default 4 bars) to determine the initial `maxPrice`.
`price range`: The total percentage range downwards from `maxPrice` where the grid orders will be placed (default -10%, meaning 10% down).
`tp`: Take profit percentage above the average entry price (default 0.45%).
`semifinal entry price percent`: Percentage drop from `maxPrice` to trigger the "semifinal" larger entry (default -12%).
`final entry price percent`: Percentage drop from `maxPrice` to trigger the "final" larger entry (default -15%).
Rounding & Display:
`roundprice`, `round`: Decimal places for rounding price and quantity calculations.
`texts`, `label_style`: User interface preferences for text size and label appearance on the chart.
Time Filter:
`startTime`, `endTime`: Defines the date range for the backtest.
3. Calculations & Grid Setup:
`maxPrice`: The highest price point for the grid setup. Calculated as the lowest low of the previous `len` bars only if no trades are open. If trades are open, it uses the entry price of the very first order placed in the current sequence (`strategy.opentrades.entry_price(0)`).
`minPrice`: The lowest price point for the grid, calculated based on `maxPrice` and `range1`.
`totalCapital`: The amount of capital (considering leverage and `per1`) allocated for the main grid orders.
`coinRatios`: An array ` `. This defines the *relative* size ratio for each of the 11 grid orders. Later orders (at lower prices) will be progressively larger.
`totalRatio`: The sum of all ratios (66).
`positionSizes`: An array calculated based on `totalCapital` and `coinRatios`. It determines the actual quantity (size) for each of the 11 grid orders.
4. Order Placement Logic (`strategy.entry`):
Initial Grid Orders:
Runs only if within the specified time range and no position is currently open (`strategy.opentrades == 0`).
A loop places 11 limit buy orders (`Buy 1` to `Buy 11`).
Prices are calculated linearly between `maxPrice` and `minPrice`.
Order sizes are taken from the `positionSizes` array.
Semifinal & Final Entries:
Two additional, larger limit buy orders are placed simultaneously with the grid orders:
`semifinal entry`: At `maxPrice * (1 - semifinal / 100)`. Size is based on `per2`% of the capital *not* used by the main grid (`1 - per1`).
`final entry`: At `maxPrice * (1 - final / 100)`. Size is based on the remaining capital (`1 - per2`% of the unused portion).
5. Visualization (`line.new`, `label.new`, `plot`, `plotshape`, `plotchar`):
Grid Lines & Labels:
When a position is open (`strategy.opentrades > 0`), horizontal lines and labels are drawn for each of the 11 grid order prices and the "final" entry price.
Lines extend from the bar where the *first* entry occurred.
Labels show the price and planned size for each level.
Dynamic Coloring: If the price drops below a grid level, the corresponding line turns green, and the label color changes, visually indicating that the level has been reached or filled.
Plotted Lines:
`maxPrice` (initial high point for the grid).
`strategy.position_avg_price` (current average entry price of the open position, shown in red).
Target Profit Price (`strategy.position_avg_price * (1 + tp / 100)`, shown in green).
Markers:
A flag marks the `startTime`.
A rocket icon (`🚀`) appears below the bar where the `final entry` triggers.
A stop icon (`🛑`) appears below the bar where the `semifinal entry` triggers.
6. Exit Logic (`strategy.exit`, `strategy.entry` with `qty=0`):
Main Take Profit (`Full Exit`):
Uses `strategy.entry('Full Exit', strategy.short, qty = 0, limit = target2)`. This places a limit order to close the entire position (`qty=0`) at the calculated take profit level (`target2 = avgPrice * (1 + tp / 100)`). Note: Using `strategy.entry` with `strategy.short` and `qty=0` is a way to close a long position, though `strategy.exit` is often clearer. This exit seems intended to apply whenever any part of the grid position is open.
First Order Trailing Stop (`1st order Full Exit`):
Conditional: Only active if `trail` input is true AND the *last* order filled was "Buy 1" (meaning only the very first grid level was entered).
Uses `strategy.exit` with `trail_points` and `trail_offset` based on ATR values to implement a trailing stop loss/profit mechanism for this specific scenario.
This trailing stop order is cancelled (`strategy.cancel`) if any subsequent grid orders ("Buy 2", etc.) are filled.
Final/Semifinal Take Profit (`final Full Exit`):
Conditional: Only active if more than 11 entries have occurred (meaning either the "semifinal" or "final" entry must have triggered).
Uses `strategy.exit` to place a limit order to close the entire position at the take profit level (`target3 = avgPrice * (1 + tp / 100)`).
7. Information Display (Tables & UI Label):
`statsTable` (Top Right):
A comprehensive table displaying grouped information:
Market Info (Entry Point, Current Price)
Position Info (Avg Price, Target Price, Unrealized PNL $, Unrealized PNL %, Position Size, Position Value)
Strategy Performance (Realized PNL $, Realized PNL %, Initial/Total Balance, MDD, APY, Daily Profit %)
Trade Statistics (Trade Count, Wins/Losses, Win Rate, Cumulative Profit)
`buyAvgTable` (Bottom Left):
* Shows the *theoretical* entry price and average position price if trades were filled sequentially up to each `buy` level (buy1 to buy10). It uses hardcoded percentage drops (`buyper`, `avgper`) based on the initial `maxPrice` and `coinRatios`, not the dynamically changing actual average price.
`uiLabel` (Floating Label on Last Bar):
Updates only on the most recent bar (`barstate.islast`).
Provides real-time context when a position is open: Size, Avg Price, Current Price, Open PNL ($ and %), estimated % drop needed for the *next* theoretical buy (based on `ui_gridStep` input), % rise needed to hit TP, and estimated USDT profit at TP.
Shows "No Position" and basic balance/trade info otherwise.
In Summary:
This is a sophisticated long-only grid trading strategy. It aims to:
1. Define an entry range based on recent lows (`maxPrice`).
2. Place 11 scaled-in limit buy orders within a percentage range below `maxPrice`.
3. Place two additional, larger buy orders at deeper percentage drops (`semifinal`, `final`).
4. Calculate the average entry price as orders fill.
5. Exit the entire position for a small take profit (`tp`) above the average entry price.
6. Offer a conditional ATR trailing stop if only the first order fills.
7. Provide extensive visual feedback through lines, labels, icons, and detailed information tables/UI elements.
Keep in mind that grid strategies can perform well in ranging or slowly trending markets but can incur significant drawdowns if the price trends strongly against the position without sufficient retracements to hit the take profit. The leverage (`lev`) input significantly amplifies both potential profits and losses.
Grid TLong V1The “Grid TLong V1” strategy is based on the classic Grid strategy, but in the mode of buying and selling in favor of the trend and only on Long. This allows to take advantage of large uptrend movements to maximize profits in bull markets. For this reason, excessively sideways or bearish markets may not be very conducive to this strategy.
Like our Grid strategies in favor of the trend, you can enter and exit with the balance with controlled risk, as the distance between each grid functions as a natural and adaptable stop loss and take profit. What differentiates it from bidirectional strategies is that Short uses a minimum amount of follow-through, so that the percentage distance between the grids is maintained.
In this version of the script the entries and exits can be chosen at market or limit , and are based on the profit or loss of the current position, not on the percentage change in price.
The user may also notice that the strategy setup is risk-controlled, because it risks 5% on each trade, has a fairly standard commission and modest initial capital, all in order to protect the strategy user from unrealistic results.
As with all strategies, it is strongly recommended to optimize the parameters for the strategy to be effective for each asset and for each time frame.
Long Explosive V1The “Long Explosive V1” strategy calculates the percentage change in price from the last closing price of the candlestick, so that if it increases by a certain percentage it goes long, but if it decreases by another percentage it sends an exit order, so that the percentage limits above and below the current price function as inherent stop loss and take profit, with the benefit of taking advantage of the volatility of the bull market.
Entries and exits are always at the market and based on percentage changes in the price. Of course, the default configuration of the strategy considers a position with a 5% risk control, modest initial capital and standard commissions, which helps to obtain realistic results and protect the user from unexpectedly controlled potential losses.
It is again emphasized that it is always advisable to adjust the parameters of the strategy well, so that the risk-reward is well controlled.
Grid Tendence V1The “Grid Tendence V1” strategy is based on the classic Grid strategy, only in this case the entries and exits are made in favor of the trend, which allows to take advantage of large movements to maximize profits, since it is also possible to enter and exit with the balance with a controlled risk, because precisely the distance between each Grid works as a natural and adaptable stop loss and take profit. This fact helps to avoid overlapping entries and exits that would result from using stop loss and take profit as limit orders.
In this version of the script the entries and exits are always at market, and based on the percentage change of the price, not on the profit or loss of the current position.
The user will notice that the strategy setup is based on a controlled risk, risking 5% on each trade, a fairly standard commission and a modest initial capital, all this in order to protect the user of the strategy from unexpected or unrealistic results.
However, it is always recommended to optimize the parameters so that the strategy is effective for each asset and for each time frame.
Grid System With Fake MartingaleThe proposed strategy is based on a grid system with a money management that tries to replicate the effect of a martingale without having to double your position size after each loss, hence the name "fake martingale". Note that a balance using this strategy is still subject to exponential decay, the risk is not minimized, as such, it would be dangerous to use this strategy.
For more information on the martingale and grid systems see:
Strategy Settings
Point determines the "grid" size and should be adjusted accordingly to the scale of the security you are applying the strategy to. Higher value would require larger price movements in order to trigger a trade, generating fewer trades as a result.
The order size determines the number of contracts/shares to purchase.
The martingale multiplier determines the factor by which the position size is multiplied after a loss, using values higher to 2 will "squarify" your balance, while a value of 1 would use a constant position sizing.
Finally, the anti-martingale parameter determines whether the strategy uses a reverse martingale or not, if set to true then the position size is multiplied after each win.
How It Works
Let's illustrate how we replicate a martingale without doubling our exposure with a simple casino example. Imagine you are playing roulette, and that you are betting on colors (black/red), your payout is 1 to 1, in the case you win, you will have your initial stake back plus a profit equal to your initial stake.
If your strategy is to recover any previous losses, you can double your stake each time you lose, once you win you will get back the previous losses plus a profit equal to your original stake, this is the martingale system. So how can we win back previous losses without having to double our stake? We could do that by doubling the payout ratio after a loss, so after a loss, we must use a payout ratio of 2:1, if we lose once again we must use a payout of 4:1...etc, our payout ratio would be subject to exponential growth instead of our stake.
Of course, the payout ratio is fixed with casino games, but in trading, we can manipulate the position of our take profit in order to replicate such effect, this is what this strategy is doing. So after a loss, we place our take profit such that a win recover our losses back plus generate a profit.
Advantages
The advantage of this approach is that unlike the martingale we don't double our position size, which instead can remain constant, this is a huge advantage as a martingale will require a significant capital in order to tank a series of losses.
Disadvantages
The main disadvantage of this method is that the price might never reach our take profit after a long losing streak, our balance would remain in the red and we couldn't do anything about it except reset the strategy.
Frictional costs are still a disadvantage, as such, we would need to place our take profits in order to account for them, while this is still better than purchasing additional shares, it minimizes the chances of the price reaching the take profit.
Conclusions
An alternative money management system replicating the effect of a martingale as been presented, we can see that such a system is far from being perfect, and it would be foolish to use it, however, it stills offer a convenient alternative to less aggressive progressive position sizing systems.
I have been receiving some messages from users criticizing me for exposing the martingale money management system, and I understand why but I can't agree, talking about it allow me to warn users against it, the grid-martingale methodology is will create more harm than anything else, the reward is only one side of the story and should always be compared against the risk, so always take a look at all the statics in a backtest.

Hulk Grid Algorithm V2 - The Quant ScienceIt's the latest proprietary grid algorithm developed by our team. This software represents a clearer and more comprehensive modernization of the deprecated Hulk Grid Algorithm. In this new release, we have optimized the source code architecture and investment logic, which we will describe in detail below.
Overview
Hulk Grid Algorithm V2 is designed to optimize returns in sideways market conditions. In this scenario, the algorithm divides purchases with long orders at each level of the grid. Unlike a typical grid algorithm, this version applies an anti-martingale model to mitigate volatility and optimize the average entry price. Starting from the lower level, the purchase quantity is increased at each new subsequent level until reaching the upper level. The initial quantity of the first order is fixed at 0.50% of the initial capital. With each new order, the initial quantity is multiplied by a value equal to the current grid level (where 1 is the lower level and 10 is the upper level).
Example: Let's say we have an initial capital of $10,000. The initial capital for the first order would be $50 * 1 = $50, for the second order $50 * 2 = $100, for the third order $50 * 3 = $150, and so on until reaching the upper level.
All previously opened orders are closed using a percentage-based stop-loss and take-profit, calculated based on the extremes of the grid.
Set Up
As mentioned earlier, the user's goal is to analyze this strategy in markets with a lack of trend, also known as sideways markets. After identifying a price range within which the asset tends to move, the user can choose to create the grid by placing the starting price at the center of the range. This way, they can consider trading the asset, if the backtesting generates a return greater than the Buy & Hold return.
Grid Configuration
To create the grid, it's sufficient to choose the starting price during the launch phase. This level will be the center of the grid from which the upper and lower levels will be calculated. The grid levels are computed using an arithmetic method, adding and subtracting a configurable fixed amount from the user interface (Grid Step $).
Example: Let's imagine choosing 1000 as the starting price and 50 as the Grid Step ($). The upper levels will be 1000, 1050, 1100, 1150, 1200. The lower levels will be 950, 900, 850, 800, and 750.
Markets
This software can be used in all markets: stocks, indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, ETFs, Forex, etc.
Application
With this backtesting software, is possible to analyze the strategy and search for markets where it can generate better performance than Buy & Hold returns. There are no alerts or automatic investment mechanisms, and currently, the strategy can only be executed manually.
Design
Is possible to modify the grid style and customize colors by accessing the Properties section of the user interface.
RSI Box Strategy (pseudo- Grid Bot)This is a strategy intended primarily for algorithmic traders. It's a pseudo-grid bot that uses a dynamic, volume-weighted grid that only updates when the RSI meets certain conditions. It's also a breakout strategy, whereas normal grid bots are not (typical grid bots sell when a higher grid is reached, whereas this strategy sells when a lower grid is breached under specific conditions). This strategy also sells 100% of pyramiding orders on close.
In a nutshell, the strategy updates its grid to the volume-weighted highest/lowest values of your given source ("src" in the settings) each time that there is a RSI crossunder/crossover. From this range it produces an evenly-spaced grid of five lines, and uses the current source to determine which grid line is closest to the source. Then, if the source crosses over the line directly above the current line, it enters a buy order. If the source crosses under the line directly below the current line, it enters a sell order.
You can configure shorts, source, RSI length, and overbought/oversold levels in the settings.
For the strategy results below: fees are at 0.1% per trade, with order size 1% of equity and a max pyramiding value of 33. For a greater R/R profile, you can increase the order size, which will increase drawdown but potentially yield better results.
Grid Spot Trading Algorithm V2 - The Quant ScienceGrid Spot Trading Algorithm V2 is the last grid trading algorithm made by our developer team.
Grid Spot Trading Algorithm V2 is a fixed 10-level grid trading algorithm. The grid is divided into an accumulation area (red) and a selling area (green).
In the accumulation area, the algorithm will place new buy orders, selling the long positions on the top of the grid.
BUYING AND SELLING LOGIC
The algorithm places up to 5 limit orders on the accumulation section of the grid, each time the price cross through the middle grid. Each single order uses 20% of the equity.
Positions are closed at the top of the grid by default, with the algorithm closing all orders at the first sell level. The exit level can be adjusted using the user interface, from the first level up to the fifth level above.
CONFIGURING THE ALGORITHM
1) Add it to the chart: Add the script to the current chart that you want to analyze.
2) Select the top of the grid: Confirm a price level with the mouse on which to fix the top of the grid.
3) Select the bottom of the grid: Confirm a price level with the mouse on which to fix the bottom of the grid.
4) Wait for the automatic creation of the grid.
USING THE ALGORITHM
Once the grid configuration process is completed, the algorithm will generate automatic backtesting.
You can add a stop loss that destroys the grid by setting the destruction price and activating the feature from the user interface. When the stop loss is activated, you can view it on the chart.
AUTOMATIC GRID BOT STRATEGY [ilovealgotrading]
OVERVIEW:
This Grid trading strategy can help you maximize your profit in a ranging sideways market with no clear direction.
INDICATOR:
We can get some money by taking advantage of the movement of the price between the range we have determined.
Short positions are opened while the price is rising, long positions are opened while the price is falling.
Therefore, there is no need to predict the trend direction.
What is different in this indicator:
I want to say thank you to © thequantscience. His GRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM - GRID BOT TRADING strategy helped me when I was writing my indicator.
I want to explain what I have improved:
1- Grid strategy is a type of strategy that can be traded in very short time frames and users can trade this strategy algorithmically by connecting this strategy to their own accounts with the help of API systems. For this reason, I have developed a software that can give us signals by dynamically changing the long and short messages when users are trading.
2- We can change the start and end dates of our grid bot as we want. It is necessary to use this setting when setting up automatic bots, so that previously opened transactions are not taken into account.
3 - Lot or quantity size should not be excessively small when users are taking automatic trades because exchanges have limitations, to avoid this problem, I have prevented this error by automatically rounding up to the nearest quantity size inside the software.
4 - Users can avoid excessive losses by using stop loss on this grid bot if they wish.
5 - When our price is over the range high or below the range low, our open positions are closed, if the stop button is active. We can also change which close price time frame we take as a basis from the settings.
6 -Users can set how many dollars they can enter per transaction while performing their transactions automatically.
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS – SETTINGS:
This script allows the user to choose the highs and lows leves of our range. Our bot trades in the specified range.
1. This strategy allows us to set start and end backtest dates.
2. We can change range high and range low leves of our bot
3. IF people want to trade algorithmically with the help of this bot, there are 6 different input systems that will receive the Json codes as an alarm
4. IF the price closes above the upper line or below the lower line, all transactions will be closed. We can determine in which time frame our transactions will be stopped if the price closes outside these levels.We can adjust how our bot works by activating or turning off the Stop Loss button.
5. In this strategy, you can determine your dollar cost for per position.
6. The user can also divide the interval we have determined into 10 parts or 20 equal parts.
7. The grid is divided and colored at the interval we set. At the same time, if we don't want we can turn off colored channels.
Notes:
If you're going to connect this bot to an automatic Long and Short direction,
Don’t forget! you need to Webhook URL,
Don’t miss paste this code to your message window {{strategy.order.alert_message}}
ALSO:
Set your range below the support zones and above the resistance zones.
Don't be afraid to take a wide range, it doesn't matter if you make a little money, the important thing is that you don't lose money.
If you have any ideas what to add to my work to add more sources or make calculations cooler, suggest in DM .
basilGrid GridBot Live [basilChart]This strategy is a full implementation of Live Grid Trading.
Prominent features of this live grid trading strategy are:
- Logarithmic Chart Support: This strategy can support Log Scale on graph. Meaning that grid lines won't have irregular gaps in between the lines if you would like to view the chart Log Scaled. Every line will be aligned correctly even if you use Log Scale or not.
- Precise Buy & Sell: Script will execute precise Buy and Sell orders.
- Dynamic Grid Level Count: From 2 grid levels to n amount of grid levels are supported. There is no limitation on grid level count, however there may be irregularities because of limitations when higher grid levels are used. You can pick any number starting from 2.
- Average Price: Traders can monitor average price of positions.
- Alerts: When order is filled trader can receive notification. Create new alert > Select basilGrid Live > Order fills only()
Characteristics of this script:
- Able to fill more than one order in one single candle.
- Levels will keep being updated with every trade.
- There will be always one grid level ignored and it will be the level which made the last order filling possible. This is normal behavior of grid trading system.
- You can both use Log Scale and Normal Scale with this script. No issue will be on grid levels.
Using the script:
- Add this script to the chart from indicators tab
- Set starting date for the live grid bot either by dragging and dropping the vertical line or by the date-time picker from indicator Inputs tab.
- Set highest and lowest limit for the script. These will be the boundary limits. Highest and lowest price for the script to work on. Lines will populate between these two values
- Set grid level count. Number of levels of the grid.
- Set amount to spend on per level. This quantity of order will be placed on each level when needed.
After setting the above settings, there is one last thing to do in order to get precise results. It is setting the Initial Capital.
- We can set this setting from 'Properties' tab. Named 'Initial Capital'. After setting the boundaries all we need to is to navigate to TradingView's own 'Data Window', and get the value there. Then paste it on the strategy's own related setting area.
In this example we used pair BTCUSDT 1D timeframe, our settings are:
Inputs Tab:
- Grid Count: 19
- High Limit: 65 500
- Low Limit: 15 000
- Quantity per level: 0.1
- Toggle Log Scale: Checked (because I always use Log Scale on charts, if Log Scale is turned on for the chart, this needs to be checked)
- Terminate Grid At The Upmost Level: Not checked
- Show Grid Levels: Checked
- Show Average Position Price: Checked
Properties Tab:
- Initial Capital: 22 628
- Slippage: 5
- Commission: 0.1% (this is the broker commission value)
This script's purpose is to make it easier to get the idea of grid trading, experiencing it in live session.
bc Grid Backtest v1.4This strategy is a full implementation of Grid Trading backtest.
Prominent features of this backtesting strategy are:
- Logarithmic Chart Support: This strategy can support Log Scale on graph. Meaning that grid lines won't have irregular gaps in between the lines if you would like to view the chart Log Scaled. Every line will be aligned correctly even if you use Log Scale or not.
- Precise Buy & Sell: Script will execute precise Buy and Sell orders.
- Dynamic Grid Level Count: From 2 grid levels to n amount of grid levels are supported. There is no limitation on grid level count. You can pick any number starting from 2.
- Customized Backtesting Results Table: A table which includes data for those who want to know has been added at top right. It can be disabled.
Characteristics of this script:
- Able to fill more than one order in one single candle.
- Levels will keep being updated with every trade.
- There will be always one grid level ignored and it will be the level which made the last order filling possible. This is normal behavior of grid trading system.
- You can both use Log Scale and Normal Scale with this script. No issue will be on grid levels.
Using the script:
- Add this script to the chart from indicators tab
- Set starting and ending date for the grid backtesting bot either by dragging and dropping the vertical lines or by the date-time picker from indicator Inputs tab.
- Set highest and lowest limit for the script. These will be the boundary limits. Highest and lowest price for the script to work on. Lines will populate between these two values
- Set grid level count. Number of levels of the grid.
- Set amount to spend on per level. This quantity of order will be placed on each level when needed.
After setting the above settings, there is one last thing to do in order to get precise results. It is setting the Initial Capital.
- We can set this setting from 'Properties' tab. Named 'Initial Capital'. After setting the boundaries all we need to is to navigate to TradingView's own 'Data Window', and get the value there. Then paste it on the strategy's own related setting area.
In this example we used pair BTCUSDT 4h timeframe, our settings are:
Inputs Tab:
- Grid Count: 13
- High Limit: 72 000
- Low Limit: 17 000
- Logarithmic Grids: Checked (because I always use Log Scale on charts, if Log Scale is turned on, this needs to be checked)
- Quantity per level: 0.1
- Show Table: Checked
- Show Grid Levels: Checked
- Show Average Position Price: Checked
Properties Tab:
- Initial Capital: 24 902
- Slippage: 5
- Commission: 0.1% (this is the broker commission value)
This script's purpose is to make simulating possible outcomes between two dates. Therefore making it easier to get the idea of grid trading, finding the best settings for your risk management and for your portfolio.
GRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM - GRID BOT TRADING STRATEGYGRID SPOT TRADING ALGORITHM : LONG ONLY STRATEGY OPEN SOURCE
This is a long only strategy for spot assets.
HOW IT WORKS
Grid trading is a trading strategy where an investor creates a so-called "price grid". The basic idea of the strategy is to repeatedly buy at the pre-specified price and then wait for the price to rise above that level and then sell the position (and vice versa with shorting or hedging).
FEATURES
Grids: This algorithm has a total of 10 grids.
Take profit: The trader can increase or decrease the distance between the grids from the User Interface panel, the distance between one grid and another represents the take profit.
Management: The algorithm buys 10% of the capital every time the price breaks down a grid and sells during a rise to the next higher grid. The initial capital is invested in 10 sizes which represent 10% of the capital per trade.
Stop Loss: The algorithm knows no stop loss as long as it is not activated from the User Interface panel. By activating the stop loss from the User Interface panel the algorithm will insert a close condition on all trades which will be calculated from the last lower grid.
Trades: Trades are opened only if the price is within the grid. If the market leaves the grid the algorithm will not buy new positions or sell new positions.
Optimal market conditions: The favorable market for this algorithm is the sideways market.
LIMITATIONS OF THE MODEL
The trader must take into account that this is a static model. It only works perfectly well if the market is in a sideways phase and incurs heavy losses if the market takes a downward trend. The model is unusable for an uptrend. The trader must therefore carefully analyze the market where he intends to use this strategy, making sure that the price is in a sideways phase.
USES
Indispensable research and backtesting tool for those using bots for their investments. The algorithm produces a backtesting of the strategy for past history. It is used by professional traders to understand if this strategy has been profitable on a market and what parameters to use for bots using this strategy (Kucoin, Binance etc.).

TTP Grid BacktesterThis pine script strategy allows to backtest Grid bots.
This initial version offers the following features:
- Set the top and bottom limits of the grid
- Plots the average position price, realised and unrealised profits
- Set the value to invest
- This script is a strategy so you can check each individual buy/sell, stats and all included with strategies
What does it do:
- Depending where is located the initial close price relative to the grid (above, below, inside) it will buy for as many levels are above the price.
- It will disable a level that recently filled an order (in the way grids bot do)
- When the grid starts it will disable the closest grid level
- It places limit orders in the active levels and many levels can be filled in a single candle
- You can activate recalculate on each order filled, which will allow to fill further needed orders if the price swings up and down crossing multiple times multiple grid levels but I have found that doing this can compromise the accuracy of the price used on those levels (there are minor gaps between the filled price and the original level price)
How to use it:
- When you add this strategy to the chart you will be asked to select the top and bottom limits of the grid
- Notice you can always select the strategy in the chart and drag and drop the limits to adjust the grid
- Once the grid is in place, you can use either lower chart timeframes for higher accuracy of the stats, or higher timeframes if you want to privilege longer periods of testing
How to set the correct "initial capital"
In order to prevent getting wrong stats you need to make sure you are using the correct initial capital. If you put less than what you are actually using your results will be over inflated. If you set an initial capital below what the bot requires, your results will be smaller than they should.
- If you want to use exactly 100% of the capital for the grid use then first select what amount per level you want to use. Set this value in the settings of the indicator (if you are trading BTCUSD pair, how much BTC you want to use per level, 0.01 for example).
- Once you have set this value, then open the TradingView "Data Window" to be able to visualise the calculation of cash required to run the grid that the strategy is giving you. In our example with BTCUSD this value will be given in USD.
- Enter this amount in the "Properties" tab, "Initial Capital". If you enter the exact amount you will be using all for the grid usage.
- The grid first action will be to buy 0.01 for each level that is above the current price in the first candle of the chart. If there are no levels above it won't do any initial investment.
- The rest of the cash will be use to buy levels below if the price goes to the lower range of the grid later
Intention of this script
I built this script to help me understand better how grid bots work.
Understanding the flow of realised vs unrealised profits in a grid can help me understand why sometimes even if you are in red on unrealised profits, you can still compensate with realised profits and many other tricky scenarios with grids.
Sometimes I'm running a grid bot and would like to simulate how much better (or worst) it would have been to run it using different limits.
Future work and ideas
Initially I'm focusing on confirming that the grid behaves correctly and that the stats are as accurate as possible.
That is the first priority.
Once I feel more confident with the accuracy I will consider adding some of the following ideas (not in any particular order):
- Table with stats including: price of each level, times the level filled an order, times it was use for selling/buying, etc. Time it took to become in realised profit. Comparison against profits from buy & hold.
- Trailing TP/SL
- Entry/exit price
- Trading time window: only trade between the specified dates/times
- Alerts
GRID Trading Optimized for Directional MarketsGRID trading is a popular trading strategy in Forex and Commodity markets.
It it however a tricky strategy when markets become directional.
This Directional GRID system adjusts its trading strategy and direction based on Overbought and Oversold RSI conditions on 2 timeframes.
It uses the short timeframe (chart) to trigger adjustments, so it delays buying/selling of all the levels, until it becomes overbought/sold
And it used the longer timeframe to trigger trading direction long/short.
This makes it far less likely to ever get "underwater", and builds in extra profit potential during market extremes.
I have coded it when i was trading SLV, but it could be optimized for any market using a "TradingView Strategy Input Optimizer".
Backtest based on a 25k max capital investment during 6 months.
Check the NET Profit (50%) result, and compare against the Buy & Hold (13.5%) return.
Losing trades are the ones that are currently open..
Av Bars in trades is the time between direction changes, as Position Adjustments are done more frequently.

Intraday Grid trading exampleHello everyone,
This was a grid trading example for intraday trading.
Please be advised that every commodity have diferent kind of reaction and rate of change between periods therefore the percentages need to be adjusted acording to the commodities change %.
In order to specify the adjustment rate we add the Zig Zag in the script.
For Example ;
Last 3 days zigzag high points are %25 , %13 and %8 , the average %is about %9 therefore you have to put the adjustment ratios something like;
Z%1 = %3
Z%2 = %6
Z%3 = %9
Feel free to use the script with caution( it was not a investment advice), this was only a example of grid trading strategy on our trading platform.
Regards.
7-RSI strategyHello, I've only been trying to learn PineScript for two months on my own, here I am posting a version of the strategy for a grid bot with 20 orders, order size 5%, earlier I tried to find something similar, but could not. Perhaps others, those who, like me, are just starting to learn PineScript, will find something useful. In the process of using grid bots, I noticed that the RSI indicator is sufficient, so the strategy uses 7 RSI indicators on different timeframes, but it is not necessary to use all 7, usually 3 is enough, therefore, by default, the RSI values are set to limit so that there is no effect on the settings of others. The step between bot orders is set in the settings. The code can of course be simplified, but it's better for understanding, I think.
Ganntime Grid Bot Long Strategy with frostybotThe grid strategy customized specifically for Frostybot. It use the tradingview webhook implement the safe orders mechanism of 3commas, and different position sizes can be selected according to the market direction. Currently, only long is supported.the default configration is suitable for some pair.but you can change it by yourself. Everyone is welcome to experience.
(IK) Grid ScriptThis is my take on a grid trading strategy. From Investopedia:
"Grid trading is most commonly associated with the foreign exchange market. Overall the technique seeks to capitalize on normal price volatility in an asset by placing buy and sell orders at certain regular intervals above and below a predefined base price."
This strategy is best used on sideways markets, without a definitive up or down major trend. Because it doesn't rely on huge vertical movement, this strategy is great for small timeframes. It only goes long. I've set initial_capital to 100 USD. default_qty_value should be your initial capital divided by your amount of grid lines. I'm also assuming a 0.1% commission per trade.
Here's the basic algorithm:
- Create a grid based on an upper-bound (strong resistance) and a lower-bound (strong support)
- Grid lines are spaced evenly between these two bounds. (I recommend anywhere between 5-10 grid lines, but this script lets you use up to 15. More gridlines = more/smaller trades)
- Identify nearest gridline above and below current price (ignoring the very closest grid line)
- If price crosses under a near gridline, buy and recalculate near gridlines
- If price crosses over a near gridline, sell and recalculate near gridlines
- Trades are entered and exited based on a FIFO system. So if price falls 3 grid lines (buy-1, buy-2, buy-3), and subsequently crosses above one grid line, only the first trade will exit (sell-1). If it falls again, it will enter a new trade (buy-4), and if it crosses above again it will sell the original second trade (sell-2). The amount of trades you can be in at once are based on the amount of grid lines you have.
This strategy has no built-in stop loss! This is not a 'set-it-and-forget-it" script. Make sure that price remains within the bounds of your grid. If prices exits above the grid, you're in the money, but you won't be making any more trades. If price exits below the grid, you're 100% staked in whatever you happen to be trading.
This script is more complicated than my last one, but should be more user friendly. Make sure to correctly set your lower-bound and upper-bound based on strong support and resistance (the default values for these are probably going to be meaningless). If you change your "Grid Quantity" (amount of grid lines) make sure to also change your 'Order Size' property under settings for proper test results (or default_qty_value in the strategy() declaration).
Ganntime Grid Bot long strategy This is a simulating 3commas grid and DCA robot strategy implementation. In AI mode, the default grid width of btc is 500, and the default grid width of eth is 25. Anyone can use it for free. You can also cancel the AI mode option and manually set the grid size and grid width. The initial order, safety order size, stop loss and take profit parameters are consistent with the configuration and usage of 3commas dca bot.
