Grid Bot — automated grid trading across 15 CEXes and 15 DEXes
A grid bot places buy and sell orders at fixed price intervals, profiting from sideways volatility. haythix runs the same grid engine on CEX API connections AND on-chain DEX pools — most competitors only do CEX.
What makes haythix different
- CEX + DEX grid in one engine. Run the same grid logic against your Coinbase account AND against USDC/WETH on Base in the same UI. Unified position tracking across both.
- Backtest with real OHLCV. Before going live, backtest the grid against real historical data (CCXT for CEX, on-chain price feeds for DEX). See projected fills, capital utilization, and rough P&L.
- Adjustable grid params. Lower / upper price, number of levels, capital per level, take-profit trigger, stop-out condition. All editable mid-flight.
- MEV protection on DEX grids. On-chain grid orders route through MEV-protected solver networks (CoW). No frontrunning, no sandwich attacks on grid fills.
Frequently asked questions
When does a grid bot make money?
Grid bots earn from price oscillating within a range. Trending markets are bad for grids — price runs through the grid in one direction and you accumulate the losing side. Backtest your range before going live.
How many grid levels should I use?
More levels = smaller per-fill profit + higher frequency. Fewer levels = bigger per-fill profit + lower frequency. Start with 10-20 levels on a tight range, increase as you validate the strategy.
Can I run a grid bot on Uniswap?
Yes — haythix Grid Bot runs against Uniswap V3 pools on Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, and Optimism. Also supports Aerodrome (Base), SushiSwap, Curve, Balancer, PancakeSwap.
