Scale

PreviousChaseNextScale Side

Last updated 1 month ago

Scales multiple orders across a price range. Also called “Ladder” orders.

Total Size is distributed across the number of Total Orders. For example if Total Size = 50 and Total Orders = 10, there will be 10 orders placed of size 5.

Select the two prices (numerical order not important) these can also be filled automatically by clicking on the chart or using the Design tool to drag and place the range.

Total Orders minimum of 2, maximum of 100 (Bybit) or 50 (Binance)

Price Distribution provides an option of placing the orders using a Cubic or Exponential function as an alternative to spacing the orders evenly

Exponential is simply a more extreme version of Cubic. Dragging the slider to the left bunches your orders towards lower prices and dragging to the right bunches orders towards higher prices. You can also use the buttons to quickly bias or align.

Size Distribution works in a similar way, but it allows you to skew the size of your orders instead.
