Hosted quoting pilot · one binary market

1. Choose shares per outcome and a distance below each midpoint.
2. At a 50¢ midpoint with a 2¢ distance, each bid is 48¢. Twenty shares cost up to $9.60 per quote before fees.
3. A quote may fill on one side, both sides or neither. The agent checks funds and caps again before placing orders.

Settings: More shares increase order size. More distance lowers the bids and may reduce fills. Dollar caps can reduce the share count.

Keep in mind: Both orders are buys. A NO bid appears at the complementary level on a single YES chart; it is not a sell order. One-sided fills can leave a losing position.

Local strategy brief

1. Set a minimum one-minute jump, such as 8¢.
2. Use the history window to assess how earlier jumps behaved. A price jump alone is not enough.
3. When the reversion check qualifies, trade against the move. The video shows one possible pullback, not a promised result.

Settings: Minimum jump filters small moves. The history window supplies the past observations used by the reversion check.

Keep in mind: A move can keep going. New information can permanently change the market price.

Local strategy brief

1. Choose a minimum and maximum entry price. The example range is 90¢–96¢.
2. Consider the outcome only when its ask is in range and the other entry checks pass. Check how and when the market resolves.
3. A share bought at 92¢ pays $1 if it wins, or $0 if it loses: 8¢ upside versus 92¢ at risk before fees. A high price is not a guarantee.

Settings: The entry-price range narrows which outcomes the strategy considers. A high price is not a guarantee of resolution.

Keep in mind: At 92¢, the upside is 8¢ before fees while the stake at risk is 92¢ per share.

Local strategy brief

1. Write an exact market title and your chance of YES, such as 0.65 for 65%. The implied chance of NO is 35%; the strategy compares both outcomes with their asking prices.
2. A 65% forecast versus a 60¢ buy price has a 5¢ gap before fees. The gap must clear your minimum edge.
3. Kelly sizing uses your forecast and price to calculate a stake. A 0.25 multiplier uses one quarter of that stake; dollar caps still apply.

Settings: Minimum edge sets the required gap. The Kelly multiplier adjusts stake size, not the confidence of your forecast.

Keep in mind: If your forecast is wrong, the apparent edge may not exist. Fractional sizing does not guarantee a profit or a loss ceiling.

Local strategy brief

1. Compare the first and latest available prices in your time window. The example rises from 40¢ to 50¢, a net move of 10¢.
2. If that move clears your threshold, consider YES after a rise or NO after a fall. Volume, spread, price and spending checks still apply.
3. The two dashed paths show possible continuation and reversal. A qualifying trend does not predict which path will happen.

Settings: Minimum move filters small changes. The time window determines how much price history is compared.

Keep in mind: Momentum can reverse after entry. This is a directional strategy, not a prediction that the trend will continue.

1. At a $100 mark, a 40 basis-point spread places a bid near $99.80 and an ask near $100.20. These are post-only limit orders; either side may fill first.
2. When the mark moves enough to trigger a requote, the prices update. At $100.30 the example bid is about $100.10 and the ask about $100.50.
3. Repeated buy fills create a long position. At a cap of twice one order size, the next buy quote is withheld; a sell quote can still reduce the position.

What the settings change

Bid and ask distances

Set each quote’s distance from the mark independently, or drag its preview line. Both follow the market. 100 basis points (bps) = 1%; a 10 bps bid and 30 bps ask sit 0.10% below and 0.30% above the mark.

Adapt within limits

Optional and off by default. Choose a maximum total spread. Both distances widen proportionally, keeping your bid/ask ratio. Chart handles show base distances; the ticket shows starting prices. Quotes start at that maximum while the agent observes 30 seconds of prices. If the last minute’s price range reaches your base spread, it widens to your maximum; it returns to base below half that range. Missing data holds new quotes. Capital, leverage, position cap and stop loss stay fixed. Latest activity shows what the agent selected and what the exchange confirmed.

Requote distance

How far the mark must move before quotes are refreshed. 10 bps means 0.10%. A smaller distance replaces orders more often.

Max position

A multiple of one quote’s size. At 2×, another order is omitted if it would push the net position beyond two order sizes.

Capital, leverage and stop loss

Each quote uses roughly half of capital × leverage. Set stop loss as a percentage of committed capital; the preview shows its dollar value. Reaching that loss cancels quotes and attempts to close the position. The exit price can change the final loss.

Keep in mind: One side can fill repeatedly. Spread capture is not guaranteed profit after price moves, fees and funding.

1. Split $98–$102 into four intervals: the five boundary prices are $98, $99, $100, $101 and $102.
2. In this neutral example, a buy at $99 fills and is followed by a sell at the next level, $100. This is one possible completed trade, before costs.
3. The price may then break below the range. Other buys can leave a position open even after an earlier grid trade made money.

What the settings change

Range and rungs

Each rung is an interval between two neighboring prices. Four rungs across $98–$102 produce $1 spacing and five boundary prices.

Direction

Neutral can open longs or shorts and starts without a seed position. Long only opens and closes longs; its sell orders are reduce-only. Short only opens and closes shorts; its buy orders are reduce-only. Directional grids first seed inventory when needed. Changing Direction in a new setup does not change an existing agent.

Capital and leverage

Capital × leverage is divided across the rungs. More rungs mean smaller orders, which must still meet market minimums.

Stop loss

A percentage of committed capital, with its dollar value shown in the preview. Reaching that loss cancels the remaining orders and attempts to close the position. Exposure remains until the exit completes.

Keep in mind: A strong trend can move outside the range and leave an exposed position. Grid spacing is not a profit guarantee.

1. Long example: a $100 notional base order at $100 buys one unit. The example uses two add orders, a 2% price step, and both multipliers set to 1.
2. If the price falls, two more $100 notional orders fill at $98 and $96. Their quantities differ because the same dollar amount buys more at a lower price.
3. Before quantity rounding, $300 buys about 3.062 units. The weighted average is about $97.97 and a 1.5% take-profit target is about $99.44. The lower average comes with more exposure.

What the settings change

Add orders

Extra entries after the price moves against the position. They add exposure; they are not protective stops or a time-based investment schedule.

Price step and step multiplier

With a 2% step and a 1× multiplier, adds sit 2% and 4% from the base entry. At 1.5×, the gaps are 2% then 3%, so the adds sit 2% and 5% from the base.

Size multiplier

Multiplies each order’s notional amount relative to the previous one. At 1×, all orders use equal dollars; their quantities still depend on their fill prices.

Target and stop

The take-profit percentage follows the weighted average entry. The configured stop-loss percentage is measured from the original base entry and must sit beyond the last planned add.

Repeat

Starts a new cycle only after verified take-profit fills, including trailing take profit. A stop loss, manual close or unverified exit ends the agent without reopening. Previous orders and settlement must finish first.

Keep in mind: These are averaging orders, not protection. The price can keep moving against the position and reach liquidation.

1. Draw the lower and upper boundaries. This flat example uses $100 and $104; sloped lines are projected through time.
2. A long starts near the lower line. A target 75% across the $4 channel is $103. The rising dashed path shows a possible target exit.
3. The falling dashed path is an alternative outcome: a 1% stop past the $100 lower line is $99. This percentage uses the line price, not the channel width. A stop can execute at a different price.

What the settings change

Lines and direction

The agent projects your lines forward. Long enters near the lower boundary; short near the upper boundary. Both sides allows either direction, one position at a time.

Take profit

Choose the other line, halfway across, or a custom distance in Advanced settings. From a $100 lower line to a $104 upper line, halfway gives a $102 long target. A short uses the mirrored calculation.

Planned loss per trade ($)

Sets a stop distance from your capital and leverage. The review estimates the loss at the current lines, before costs; moving lines, fees, funding and slippage can increase it. You can also edit the percentage in Advanced settings or drag the stop on the chart.

Rest limit orders

Places post-only entries near the lines instead of waiting to submit a market entry. A gap or an already-crossed target may still require a market exit.

Keep trading the channel

After a take-profit exit, wait for another entry. A stop ends the agent. If you set an end time, new entries stop when that time is reached.

Keep in mind: Price can break out of the channel. A drawn line does not provide price support or guarantee an exit.
