How an accumulation bot reads a day like this
Wide dispersion between the top and bottom of the table is what a two-sided grid feeds on. Downward rungs fill on the weak assets and upward rungs close lots on the strong ones, and because every lot carries its own take-profit above the fee line, chop converts into closed trades rather than an ever-deeper average entry. A market that trends straight in one direction is the harder case: the ladder either fills on the way down and waits, or runs out of inventory on the way up until the grid re-centres.
