Mean-reversion grid strategy that anchors buy and sell levels to Bollinger Bands. The grid automatically widens during volatile periods and tightens during calm periods as Bollinger Bands expand and contract with realized volatility. Buy orders are placed in the lower half of the band range (statistically oversold) and sell orders in the upper half (overbought), with take-profit targets aiming for mean reversion to the SMA middle line. A three-tier regime detection system (Active, Cautious, Paused) protects against trending markets using ADX and band width analysis. Entry quality is enhanced with optional RSI confirmation filtering.
Each bot's return on this version since it became stable (at most the last 30 days), averaged over bots with 5+ trades on it; drawdown marks open positions to their last stored price. Live bots only, else paper bots.
Recent profits in our backtests came from a few coins and a measurement error we have since fixed; most coins lost or were flat. Try it on paper first.
Real historical candles, the same engine the bots use. Equity curve against buy-and-hold, win rate, drawdown. The strategy code stays server-side.
One row per exchange with a recorded backtest: the best public run on that exchange, on the pair and timeframe it was run against. These are backtests, not bot records — the 30-day bot record above covers every exchange. 0 of 15 compatible exchanges have one; the other 15 are listed below without numbers.
Strategy Lab uses AI to mutate and backtest strategies like this one, keeping only the changes that beat the numbers above — validated on data it never trained on.
