Built-in Safety Features
Multiple layers of protection to help manage risk.
Grid Master includes several safety mechanisms that are enforced on-chain by the smart contract. These aren't just UI limits — they're programmatically enforced and cannot be bypassed.
Risk Controls
Max Trade Size
Limit the maximum amount for any single trade. Prevents the bot from making oversized trades.
E.g., max 10 SOL per trade
Slippage Protection
Set the maximum slippage allowed per trade. If market conditions would cause more slippage, the trade is rejected.
E.g., max 0.5% slippage
Trade Cooldown
Minimum time between trades. Prevents rapid-fire trading during extreme volatility.
E.g., 30 seconds between trades
Daily Trade Limit
Maximum number of trades per 24-hour period. Resets automatically each day.
E.g., max 100 trades per day
Drawdown Circuit Breaker
If the vault's value drops by a certain percentage, trading is automatically paused.
E.g., pause if down 15%
Price Range Protection
The bot can only trade when the price is within your defined grid range. This is enforced on-chain — even if the bot tried to trade outside the range, the smart contract would reject it.
Price Below Range
Bot holds the base token and waits for price to return. No sell orders possible.
Price Above Range
Bot holds the quote token and waits for price to return. No buy orders possible.
Pause Anytime
Emergency Stop
You can pause your vault at any time from the settings page. When paused, no trades will execute. Your funds remain in the vault and you can withdraw or resume whenever you want.
Configuring Safety Settings
Safety settings are configured when you create your vault. You can update them later from the vault's settings page.
Default Settings
We provide sensible defaults if you're not sure what to set. These are designed to balance trading activity with risk management.
Remember:
Safety features help manage risk, but they cannot eliminate it. Grid trading involves market risk — prices can move unfavorably, and there's no guarantee of profit.
