0:00We are at the 13th part of our Gridbot
0:02video series . part . Gridbot trailing
0:05means a gridbot that follows or tracks
0:07the price . The 8th . item already
0:11includes many previous gridbot features
0:13. Additionally , it is a robot that has
0:16the ability to track the price in the
0:18desired direction . I will try to
0:20explain its advantages as well . As you
0:24know , everyone who has purchased the
0:26Matrix IQ grid bot package can use not
0:28only this one but all grid bots . What
0:32was the logic behind grid trading ?
0:34Those who watched the first video
0:35already understand the grid trading
0:37logic . I explained it there . I don't
0:39want to repeat myself now . But there
0:41was one point where we struggled with
0:43grid trading . We were making a profit ,
0:45but there was a point we didn't like .
0:48What was that point ? It’s when the
0:51price rises continuously with candles
0:53from a certain point — in other words ,
0:55rises without a break , just like a
0:57single linear direction , as seen here .
1:00Why is this a disadvantage for us ?
1:06Because it gradually depletes all our
1:08assets , and if it moves upwards like
1:10this on the spot side — the stock side
1:12— as you see on the screen now , it
1:14exhausts our holdings like a straight
1:16line . Okay , we were making a profit ,
1:22but there is a situation here that
1:24limits the profit . So , what usually
1:27happened to take precautions against
1:29this ? If the price moved upwards ,
1:34especially quickly , we would be left
1:36helpless with no lots or stocks left in
1:38our hands . Our only consolation would
1:44be if it turned back and started buying
1:46and selling between the grids again .
1:49But what if it doesn't ? What if it
1:52doesn't turn back and keeps going ?
1:55That's the problem of being left
1:56without assets and missing out on the
1:58rally . In other words , it’s like
2:01missing out on the rise , especially
2:03during sharp uptrends . The solution to
2:06this is grid bot trailing , or a
2:08trailing grid . What will the trailing
2:11grid do ? Let's look at it together . As
2:15the price rises , it will inevitably do
2:17what with our assets ? As the sells
2:21above are triggered , it will sell each
2:23one and place a buy order at the lower
2:25level . This is exactly where the grid
2:28bot trailing logic comes into play . I
2:31want to continue with the same example
2:32we’ve been using from the start . We
2:35had a range between 10 and 20 . Our
2:37lower limit was 10 , and the upper limit
2:39was 20 . Our grid interval was 1 lira .
2:42The price has gone above the grid
2:43interval and is moving forward . So our
2:46upper limit is 20 lira right now , but
2:48please pay attention to that upper
2:50limit . The upper limit is 20 lira , but
2:53where was our last buy order ? At 19
2:56lira . Because it stayed one grid below
2:58the upper limit of 20 . We are waiting
3:00with a buy at 10 lira , but let’s say
3:01the price has broken away and is
3:03heading upwards . For example , it hit 22
3:05lira . It has moved two grids above the
3:08upper limit . With our 1 lira grid
3:11interval , something happens for us at
3:13this moment . What does the grid bot
3:16trailing do ? I ask you to pay attention
3:18to the bottom grid at 10 . The buy order
3:22at 10 lira at the bottom is deleted .
3:28The 10th grid is canceled , and when the
3:30price hits 22 — meaning it opens 2
3:32grids above the upper limit or reaches
3:343 grids above our last buy — at 22 lira
3:36, it triggers a buy order instantly , as
3:38you know , even if there wasn't a buy at
3:4020 . What happens during this ? Our 6
3:45limit becomes 11 . Our 3 limit becomes
3:4921 . So , essentially , everything shifts
3:51up by one grid . If your grid is 6 cents
3:54, it shifts up by 6 cents . If it's 20
3:56cents , everything shifts up by 20 cents
3:59. It is important to note that stops
4:01will also move up by one grid in the
4:03same way . This is how our grid will
4:08follow the price . Let's continue a bit
4:11further . Let's say the price rose even
4:13higher . It went up another grid . The
4:15price is rising sharply . Then 11 is
4:17deleted . Our grid at 11 is deleted . See
4:21, and a new buy is created at 21 . So ,
4:25we are following the price upwards .
4:27Actually , if you know the concept of
4:29trailing stop in technical analysis ,
4:31what does a trailing stop do ? It
4:33follows the price at a certain distance
4:35, but stays in place when the price
4:37starts to fall . It freezes . It stops
4:40following . It doesn't go back down . So ,
4:42what are we doing ? We are moving the
4:44grids upwards one by one . Look ,
4:45afterwards , for example , 12 is deleted .
4:48Let's say the price rose even more . A
4:51buy order is placed at 22 . Then 13 is
4:54deleted . A buy order is placed at 23 .
4:59So , our 10 buys are slowly moving up
5:01along with the price . When does this
5:05happen ? When the price breaks out and
5:08moves upward . What are we waiting for ?
5:10We are waiting for a correction . The
5:12reason we wait for a correction is this
5:14. As you know , prices never rise
5:17breathlessly forever . It will surely do
5:19something at certain levels . In the
5:23slightest pullback or correction within
5:25this range , it returns to the level we
5:27followed . So , we are still in the game
5:30during a small correction . If the
5:34limited feature is used — meaning not
5:35all passive orders , and by the way , I'm
5:37leaving the link to the grid bot
5:39limited in the top right corner .
5:42Definitely watch that if you want to
5:43use this feature . So , if not all
5:47passive orders but only certain
5:48percentages of passive orders you set
5:51are sitting below — for example , if 14
5:53is my only visible order and I have
5:55invisible limited orders further down
5:57to avoid locking up my portfolio , we
5:59used to deactivate them , you know . You
6:02cannot see that the passive orders at
6:04the lower limit are deleted . Meaning ,
6:07if I actually have a passive order for
6:08limited , you cannot see it , but you
6:10will see that new grids are added
6:12upward while following the price .
6:14Actually , the bot deletes them . These
6:16are invisible . So , the robot also
6:18deletes those orders if they remain
6:20below the base . It adds new ones to the
6:23top . But you cannot watch this visually
6:26. When it falls , we don't lower the
6:30levels again like a stop logic , the
6:31levels remain on hold unchanged , and
6:33when it enters the grid range , it tries
6:35to earn us money continuously with buys
6:37and sells . So what happens ? Let's say
6:42it initially fell downward . The buy at
6:4423 is triggered . What does it do
6:47immediately ? It then places a SELL at
6:5024 . If the one at 22 is also triggered ,
6:54and the correction has reached that far
6:56, it wants to sell what it bought at 23
6:58immediately to the grid above at a
7:00profit . If 21 is triggered and the
7:04price falls below 21 , it triggers and
7:06immediately places a sell order at 22 ,
7:08one grid above . This way , we stay in
7:13the game even during a minor correction
7:15. So , what should we pay attention to
7:19here ? The grid trailing distance is
7:22fixed . Whenever the price rises two
7:24grids above the upper limit , the bottom
7:26grid is removed . In trailing , it adds
7:29to the top and carries over the other
7:31grid features as well . If you want to
7:35leave more than one grid gap — for
7:37example , as in the gridbot gap ( I'm
7:39leaving the link to the gridbot gap at
7:41the top right ) — If you want to place
7:43your order at 23 or 24 instead of just
7:45one grid , you can leave multiple grid
7:47gaps . Our gridbot trailing actually
7:51covers this feature too . It essentially
7:55incorporates the features of the
7:57gridbot stock , gridbot limited , and
7:59gridbot gap . It includes them all . So ,
8:01it is actually a more advanced grid bot
8:04. If you have watched the first parts
8:07carefully and are using them , you can
8:08include this in your system and use it
8:10as well . It also has stock features . I
8:12can start with the assets I already
8:14hold . Therefore , if it freezes , stops ,
8:16breaks down , or you close it , you can
8:18restart it with new settings . Our
8:22feature here is that while it stays put
8:24during drops , it follows the price
8:26upward and gradually erases the lower
8:28grids , effectively shifting everything
8:30upward . Including the stop loss . I
8:34didn't visually shift the stop loss
8:36upward here , but our stop loss will
8:38also shift up with every step . Let's
8:40keep this in mind . Now , let's look at
8:42the IQ screens . We are on the BIST 100
8:45chart . BIST 100 shows a constantly
8:49rising profile for us over the years ,
8:51and while it moves forward , it doesn't
8:53always rise continuously . Sometimes it
8:57experiences pullbacks . To avoid missing
9:01out on the rally and to ensure grid
9:03trading doesn't get sidelined , what do
9:05we do ? We follow this method . As you
9:10can see , look , it pulls back every time
9:12. Those pullbacks are important points
9:15for us . As you can see , I want to show
9:18you the settings . In the IQ algo menu ,
9:21grid trade — that is , trailing — is
9:24already live in the algo marketplace .
9:28As our 8th grid , everyone who buys the
9:30whole package can use all 8 grid bots .
9:34It will appear here in the strategy
9:36list . If you select copy , although it's
9:42not in the Algo Marketplace right now ,
9:44if you go to user strategies , you will
9:46see the gridbot trailing there ; look ,
9:48the menu is actually easy for me . If
9:52you have watched the previous videos ,
9:54there is no difference . It also works
9:56for the short side . Meaning , it tracks
9:58the downtrends on the derivatives
10:00market ( VIOP ) . Of course , the logic is
10:03the same , it just works in reverse . You
10:06can use the mode here during a bull or
10:08bear market on the VIOP side . You
10:11already know what arithmetic mode and
10:13geometric mode are . I will skip over
10:14these quickly . Yes , just like in the
10:16gridbot stock , I can start with 5,000
10:19lots , 6,000 lots , 10,000 lots , whatever
10:21I have . I can input my existing assets
10:23at the start . If you don't type
10:26anything here , this is critical . If you
10:29don't enter any lot count , it works
10:30like a normal classic grid . But if you
10:33say , " I want to distribute 1,000 lots . "
10:36Then it will work by taking those 1,000
10:38lots into account at the start . Meaning
10:40, it works on the grid bot stock logic .
10:42As I said , if you don't write anything
10:44here , if you leave it as zero , it acts
10:46like a classic grid bot that performs
10:48all the buys between the lower and
10:50upper limits . If there is stock , it
10:51does not make new purchases since it
10:53starts with the assets you have on hand
10:54. It only places passive buy orders
10:56below . I had explained your cost basis
10:58in the grid bot stock [ video ] as well .
11:00You can examine it in detail in the
11:01grid bot stock [ video ] in the top right
11:03corner . If you enter a cost , it starts
11:06with the stock quantity you entered ,
11:08taking into account the profit and loss
11:10starting from that cost . But if you
11:13don't enter this , if you don't write
11:15anything for the cost , it starts at 0
11:17lira without any profit or loss . For
11:18the lower limit and upper limit , we
11:20determine a specific range , just like
11:22in the classic grid . The number of
11:23grids and everything else is the same .
11:25The number of positions per grid , all
11:26of these are the same . There is no
11:28difference at all . You can leave a gap ,
11:30just like in the grid bot gap [ feature ]
11:32. It places the buys one or more grids
11:35higher . You know the grid bot limited
11:38feature is the order percentage . You
11:40want the passive orders below to follow
11:42from behind by a certain percentage ,
11:44for example 2-3 % , instead of going all
11:46the way to the bottom so that it
11:48doesn't restrict your transaction limit
11:50. We had already explained this in Grid
11:52Bot Limited . You know there is a
11:54rollover time for the next day . Please
11:57let's set different times for each of
11:58our grid bots now . What will it do if
12:01you use a lower stop loss ? You just
12:04need to define and select the lower and
12:06upper stops here . And what do they do ?
12:10Both the lower and upper stops follow
12:11upwards ; in such a case , please pay
12:13attention to the upper stop here . For
12:17example , you know a new grid was
12:19triggered from bottom to top at 22 ; if
12:21I had used an upper stop before 22 , it
12:23would have stopped and not followed .
12:26Please pay attention to this ; it needs
12:28to be high enough . If it is very close ,
12:31just above the upper limit , the grid
12:33bot stops itself without carrying the
12:35stops . We can also make choices such as
12:37take profit and stop loss in terms of
12:40amount , meaning " let the bot stop if I
12:42incur a loss of 5,000 L. " We can make
12:44these selections . And if you select "
12:48close positions when the strategy stops
12:49, " it automatically closes the
12:51positions it holds when you stop it for
12:53some reason or when it hits take profit
12:55or stop loss levels . But if you want to
12:58carry them , leave this off . Meaning ,
13:01this button should not be selected .
13:04Then you can close them manually when
13:05the bot stops , or you have the right to
13:07stop it and do what ? You can run a new
13:11grid bot trailing with this method
13:13using the new assets you have . On the
13:16futures side , it closes the positions
13:17at the time you set on the last day of
13:19the maturity . The commission rate is
13:21also like this . Now I want to show you
13:23a live example of this . Let's close the
13:26video like that . I think all the
13:29details are understood . Now let's
13:32reinforce this a bit visually . Yes , we
13:34have a video example in front of us . In
13:37the video example , look , my grid bot
13:39has opened upwards on Çimsa , moving
13:41the lower limit up . I have 25 grids
13:45between 35.10 and 36.06 . Actually , I
13:51also have an upper limit at 36.10 . It
13:55was there at first , and look , it has
13:57now broken the upper limit upwards with
13:5936.12 . What happens after my grid bot
14:02breaks through ? First , my order at the
14:07very bottom , look , at 35.10 , is deleted
14:10, and after the order at 35.10 is
14:12deleted , a new grid is added one level
14:15higher at 36.0 . The grid is added
14:20upwards . It is added now . Look , it
14:22continues like this . Let's speed it up
14:24a little bit . Next to 6 , when 3514
14:26rises even more , for example , we'll
14:29find out what 3514 does . Right now , see
14:32, it has returned to the grids .
14:34Actually , what happened immediately ?
14:36Since our buy was triggered at 3610 , it
14:39immediately tried to sell what it
14:41bought at 3614 . So , it's trying to make
14:43money because the grids started working
14:45and entered the range again . Then it
14:47broke upwards again . Look , it's
14:49breaking . Now we are without assets
14:51again at the moment . We are just
14:53waiting like that . To stay in the game ,
14:55to be a part of this rise , what do we
14:58do ? It just deleted the bottom 3514
15:01grid . Look , it stayed at 3518 . What
15:04will it do ? It will add to 3614 . Look ,
15:07it made the price 3618 . It deletes from
15:10the bottom and adds to the top . It is
15:12trying to follow the price . Until when ?
15:14Look , it moved it up to 22s again .
15:17After that , the price turned downwards .
15:20It put what it bought at 22 one grid up
15:22immediately . Here , we have set up 4 -
15:24cent grids , for example , in this
15:26scenario . It immediately listed what it
15:28bought higher up . Look , it dove deeper
15:30and deeper inside . I wanted to show you
15:33the following minutes as well . So , in
15:36any rise , it tries to do what during
15:38the corrections ? It actually tries to
15:43get involved here again , not to follow
15:45the rise from behind . It keeps trying
15:48to win grids over and over . I think
15:50this method will be useful for quite a
15:52few people . Because many people don't
15:55want to stay out of the game in such
15:56situations . The grid bot continues to
16:00work , win , and earn money even if the
16:02price goes higher , out of range . I just
16:06want to give a small warning . This is
16:08an important warning . Look , when it
16:10deletes the bottom 10 buy order , it
16:12places a buy order at 20 . So , the money
16:15you actually need to keep in the
16:17account , considering per lot , is no
16:19longer 10 liras , but 20 liras . We need
16:23to have a certain portfolio size
16:24because it moves upward just for this
16:26order . So , if your old settings were
16:31barely enough , you might need a larger
16:33portfolio size for such a method when
16:35climbing upwards like this , since it
16:37enters buys at higher levels . I kindly
16:40ask you to pay attention to this . I
16:42wish you use it on profitable days . M.
