What could be the reason for having lower balance after the trade was profitable? Shouldn't the sold btc automatically show higher usdt if i made profit?

Answer

You need to check the total profit not the grid profit. Grid profit is realized profit coming from buying low and selling high. The other kind of PnL is Unrealized profit/loss. This is coming from the price decrease in the token hold by the bot. If your total profit is positive, your overall balance will increase compared to initial investment.
