How I Made +22.8% in 71 Days in a Sideways Market

A real-world Grid Trading case study on BIOUSDC

For most traders, a sideways trend is the worst period in the market. Emotions fade, volumes decrease, and capital sits idle, waiting for a “real” move. But what if I told you that this “boring” period is the perfect environment for generating steady, passive profits? In this article, I’ll show you the real-world results of a Grid Trading bot on the BIOUSDC pair and reveal how a new feature in ATHgrid will soon allow you to maximize these profits even further.

The Setup: Why the BIOUSDC Pair?

Success in Grid Trading starts with choosing the right market. The BIOUSDC pair on TradingView was an ideal candidate for several reasons. It has been moving within a clearly defined, wide price range for months. The lack of a strong uptrend or downtrend, combined with constant daily volatility, created the perfect conditions for a bot that profits from price fluctuations by buying low and selling high.

The Results: The Numbers Speak for Themselves

After 71 days of uninterrupted work, with a simple 2% grid setup and without my active involvement, the ATHgrid bot achieved the following results:

• Uptime: 71 days
• Grid Spacing: 2%
• Number of Take Profits (TPs): 338
• Profit on Active Capital: +22.80%

While other traders were getting frustrated by the lack of movement, the system was methodically closing an average of 4-5 profitable trades per day. This is the power of automation – turning market chaos and boredom into consistent income.

Teaser: A New Profit-Maximizing Feature Coming to ATHgrid

Currently, the bot takes profit at the next, closest grid level. But what if we could increase the profit from every single trade? I’m proud to announce that a new, advanced feature is coming soon to ATHgrid!

Users will be able to decide how many grid levels up their profit is realized.

Instead of selling at the next level, you’ll be able to set a sale every 2, 3, 4, or more levels higher. The bot will still accumulate assets at every level on the way down, but the profits will be realized at much higher targets. It’s a simple change that dramatically increases the percentage profit per trade and allows you to build compound interest even faster.

Summary and What’s Next

As this case study shows, Grid Trading is a powerful strategy that allows you to make money in conditions where most traders are sitting on the sidelines. It’s a systematic approach that eliminates emotion and turns volatility into your ally.

In a future article, I will provide detailed simulations and a guide on how to effectively use the new Take Profit level setting to maximize your results. Stay tuned!
