The Staggered Orders is a more complex and flexible version of the Grid Trading Mode. In most situations, the Grid Trading Mode is a better choice.
Where the Grid Trading Mode is mainly defined around the number of orders you want to maintain, the Staggered Orders Trading Mode focuses on the price range you want to cover. By configuring upper and lower bounds, spread and increment, the Staggered Orders Trading Mode will determine how many orders are required, use the maximum available funds and maintain the relevant orders on exchange.
The Staggered Orders Trading Mode can
- Be configured for each trading pair independently
- Specify the way funds are dispatched within buy and sell orders
