Zero-fee grid trading
Profit on every swing
Run a grid bot on Bitfinex through ALTINVEST with 0% maker and taker fees. Plug in your parameters and see how much more you'd earn versus other exchanges.
Simulate your grid profit
Enter capital, grid count, price range and your expected profit cycles per day, then compare Bitfinex against other exchanges in real time.
8% = ±4% from price
Note: estimated using regular-tier spot maker fees. Grid orders are limit orders that rest on the book, so the vast majority fill as maker. Round-trip fee is computed as maker × (2 + grid spacing), which exactly accounts for both legs of a closed trade.
Result interpretation
Current setup: 0.032% per grid across 250 grids in a 8.0% range
- ✓Bitfinex (0% fees): keeps 100% of every cycle
- ✕Binance (0.2% × 2): fees exceed per-grid profit — every trade loses money
- ✕OKX (0.16% × 2): fees exceed per-grid profit — every trade loses money
Zero fees on Bitfinex let you shrink the spacing all the way down and capture every micro-swing; other venues must widen spacing just to escape fee erosion.
On other exchanges, narrow grid spacing means fees eat your profit. Bitfinex's zero-fee model lets you go as tight as you want and capture every tiny swing.

How grid trading works
Grid trading is an automated strategy that captures price swings — ideal for sideways, choppy markets.
Set a price range
Pick a pair and the range you expect to oscillate within (e.g. ±10% on BTC/USD).
Split into grids
The range splits into N buy/sell levels and capital is distributed across them.
Auto buy low, sell high
Whenever price crosses a level, the bot executes a paired trade.
Compound the spreads
With zero fees, every swing converts to net profit and compounds over time.
