  • – Set an override in your pair with “MAX_OPEN_CONTRACTS”.
  • – Save changes.

Important Notes:

  • – futuresGrid since build v21.8.7 – Stable preview allows any direction to trade long, short, or auto (strategy will decide what side to enter based on his own ALGO).
  • – Adjust your MOC accordingly to your risk acceptance using the “MAX_OPEN_CONTRACTS” value.
  • – Make sure if you use coin margined you set MOC in contracts values not quote.
  • You must run at least build v21.9.1 to use properly this strategy and several improvements have been made.

  1. Thanks for this! I’m having trouble with futuresGrid on Binance Coin M Futures – eg USD-ETH-PERP and USD-LINK-PERP. I can only get it to open a single trade – I have TL 1, Max Buy Count 10 and Max Open Contracts 1000, everything else default, but only one trade opens up. Any ideas?
