What's the Edit Parameters feature and why should I use it?
Edit Parameters feature is designed to give users greater flexibility and control. By using it, it allows you to:
Adjust your grid bot setting, such as the upper and lower range, or the grid quantity, on-the-fly — without having to close and reopen new bots.
Better respond to changing market conditions and maintain a consistent investment strategy.
This new feature also helps key influencers ensure that any changes they make to their bots are seamlessly replicated across their followers’ bots.
What are the changes included with the Edit Parameters feature?
Users can now edit the Grid Range and Grid Quantity directly within the bot.
Trailing Up/Down will be automatically turned off after editing and can't be adjusted separately.
Advanced Start/Stop conditions will remain unchanged and can't be edited.
If both base and quote assets are insufficient, users will be prompted to top up quote assets to meet the minimum investment required. Topping up base assets isn't permitted.
Profit and Loss (PNL) will be reinvested by default after any edits.
The marketplace workflow isn't included in this phase, so edits by lead traders won’t be broadcasted to subscribers.
Edits can be performed in all running states, except for STOP_DELAY_TRIGGER.
This new feature is designed to help you maximize your trading strategy with more flexibility and ease, ensuring that your bots remain aligned with your evolving goals.
