The Hedge Gap robot uses a combined strategy of hedging and grid trading. It increases positions when the asset price drops, which allows:

Reducing drawdowns by averaging position costs.

Compensating for losses during market recovery.

Even if negative results are fixed at certain stages, the robot quickly compensates losses due to its strategy. Once the set profit level is reached, the robot completes the cycle and starts again with the minimum position size.

Key Parameters

1. symbols – List of coins

This is a list of cryptocurrency pairs that the robot works with.

2. runMode – Operating Mode

Demo: Test mode trading with "paper money," without using real funds.
Real: Live trading mode using your account on an exchange.

3. sizeUsd – Initial Position Size

Calculated using the formula:

sizeUsd = (balanceUsd * riskFactor) / number of symbols

Example:

If the balance is $1000, the risk factor is 2, and the list contains 10 assets:

sizeUsd = 1000 * 2 / 10 = $200

4. rbSizeFactor – Position Size Increase Coefficient

Defines how the size of the next position increases.

Example with rbSizeFactor = 1:

Level 1: First position = $30.
Level 2: $30 + $30 × 1 = $60.
Level 3: $60 + $60 × 1 = $120.

5. rbPercent – Price Drop Percentage for Averaging

Specifies the percentage by which the asset price must fall before the robot opens the next position with rbSizeFactor.

6. gapPercent – Loss Percentage for Partial Closure

The robot closes part of the position when the specified loss percentage is reached, helping to limit large drawdowns.

7. sellFactor – Percentage of Position Closed

Determines how much of the position is closed when the gapPercent level is triggered.

8. basketProfit – Minimum Profit Percentage

The robot fixes profit once the specified percentage is achieved. After closing all positions, it starts a new trading cycle with the minimum position size (sizeUsd).

Examples of Robot Operation

Example 1: Opening and Increasing Positions

Initial balance: $1000, list of assets: 10, rbSizeFactor = 1.
First position: $100.
Asset price drops by 7% (rbPercent = 7), the robot opens a new position: $100. Total position size: $200.
Price drops another 7%, the next position is opened: $200. Total position size: $400.

Example 2: Fixing Profit

The robot opens positions until the total profit reaches 0.5% (basketProfit = 0.5).
Once the target profit level is reached, the robot closes all positions, secures the profit, and starts a new cycle.

Example 3: Fixing Losses

Asset price falls to the specified loss percentage (gapPercent = 2).
The robot closes 70% of the positions (sellFactor = 0.7) to limit further losses.
