Why is my total P&L showing a loss while my Grid Profit is positive?

Grid Profit represents the sum of the profits generated by each completed buy and sell order pair in a trading strategy. However, total P&L includes both realized and unrealized profits and losses. If the open positions in the robot are currently suffering losses and the realized Grid Profit is not enough to offset them, you may see a negative Total Profit and Loss.

Can I add more margin to my Futures grid robot?

Yes, you can add additional margin by going to the “More” page and clicking on “Adjust Margin”. The added margin will be used as an available balance to maintain your position or for fee deduction and will not affect any of the robot parameters.

Why is the total number of Buy and Sell orders not equal to the number of my grids?

Our Futures Grid Robot uses a dynamic order placing model, where the number of pending orders is always a limited number of orders near the current price, thus increasing your capital utilization and profitability, and reducing the risk of a potential blowout.
