Furkan Yildirim wrote that he had simulated more than 700,000 grid trading bots for Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, gold, and oil in the past few days. He had analyzed 1.4 million candles with fees, funding, and liquidations, and had calculated more than 9 billion candles in total. He examined which settings in futures grid bots determined profit or liquidation. The results were intended to show, among other things, what effect a commonly discussed setting in tutorials had in the simulation, how to calculate an appropriate trading range, and why a certain bot was more dangerous than others. From the data, he also developed a tool that calculates settings for individual markets. Yildirim referred to raw data with 205,686 lines in a file and asked whether he should record a video of the results and the tool on the same day. #GridTrading #Kryptowährungen #FuturesTrading (translated)
