You generally do not need to release eligible profit before closing a Pionex Grid Bot. Closing stops the strategy, cancels its remaining orders and releases the assets according to the closing option you confirm. Release Profit is a separate control for moving eligible profit while keeping the bot open.
Closing and releasing profit solve different jobs
| Action | What it does | Bot status |
|---|---|---|
| Release Profit | Moves the currently eligible amount out of the strategy | Bot can remain running |
| Close and keep assets | Cancels orders and returns the held base and quote assets | Bot stops |
| Close and sell the base asset | Cancels orders and attempts the selected conversion | Bot stops after closing completes |
How to close carefully
- Open the running bot and review Grid Profit, unrealized PnL and Total Profit.
- Open the Close control without confirming.
- Read which assets the selected option will return.
- Check any market-sale warning, fee and expected balance.
- Confirm only when the asset result matches your plan.
- Verify the final status, orders and account balances.
Auto-reinvesting funds are handled at closing
Pionex says Grid Profit already moved into the reinvesting section cannot be released while the bot runs, but all associated funds become tradable after the bot closes.

Frequently asked questions
Do you need to release profit before closing a Pionex Grid Bot?
No. Closing the bot is the action that stops orders and releases the bot’s assets. Release Profit is a separate optional control for eligible profit while the bot remains open.
What happens to open Grid Bot orders when you close it?
The bot cancels its remaining grid orders as part of closing. Review the live closing screen for the exact product and current status.
Will closing always return only USDT?
No. The result depends on the closing choice. You may keep the base and quote assets or choose an available sale option that converts the remaining base asset.
What does Release Profit do?
It moves the amount currently eligible for release out of the running bot. It is not required for the closing process.
What happens to profit in the auto-reinvesting section?
Pionex states that funds locked in the Grid auto-reinvesting section become tradable after the bot closes.
Should you close the bot only because Total Profit is positive?
Not automatically. Check Grid Profit, unrealized PnL, current holdings, closing conversion and whether the original range thesis still applies.
What should you save if the close result looks wrong?
Save the bot order ID, pair, close time, selected asset option, final status and transaction records, then contact official Pionex Support.
Closing choices and returned assets can vary by product. Read the live confirmation before acting.
