Stepgrid programmed to sell at a loss? -PNL?
« on: January 06, 2022, 06:26:10 PM »
Hi, My StepGrid strategy keeps selling at a loss, I don't think it is supposed to be doing that?

It will DCA / buy down in steps. Then it will sell some at a profit, then all of a sudden it will decide to sell bags it bought higher up as well, at a -PNL loss.  :(

I haven't changed the quote currency or done any manual trading on the active pairs. I have added some base currency to my spot account whilst the pairs have been active, which I wouldn't imagine would cause this issue?

Appreciate any insights, this is concerning. D5

It's a loss if you compare with average bought price. It's profit, if you compare with latest bought price.

Changing the take profit and stop loss settings, or adjusting the bot's trading parameters based on market conditions.
