Introduction
GRIDer is a nonâcustodial grid trading bot built for perpetuals DEXs, live on Hyperliquid, with Lighter, Pacifica and Extended in active development. You connect your wallet, approve a tradingâonly agent wallet, set a price range, and GRIDer runs a grid strategy for you, 24/7, while your funds never leave your own account.
These docs explain what grid trading is, how GRIDer works, and how to set up, run and manage your grids with confidence.
Why GRIDer
- Nonâcustodial. Your funds stay in your perpetuals DEX account. GRIDer connects through an agent wallet with trading permissions only, never withdrawal. Even in a worstâcase breach, nobody can move your money.
- No signâup. No email, no KYC, no password. Just connect your wallet and accept the terms.
- Perpetuals DEXânative. Not a generic multiâexchange aggregator. Hyperliquid is live today with a low builder fee (0.008%), correct handling of every token's price precision, and a backendâmanaged stopâloss, with Lighter, Pacifica and Extended in active development.
- Backtest before you risk. Replay real recent prices to size your range and levels before committing a single dollar.
- Spot and perpetuals. Run grids on perpetuals (with leverage and funding) or on spot markets (longâonly).
Who it's for
Traders who want to capture profit from sideways, rangeâbound markets without staring at charts. If you expect a token to oscillate inside a range for days or weeks, a grid is an efficient way to turn that motion into a stream of small, repeated trades.
It also appeals to traders who use liquidity pool positions for yield: grids work best in the same sideways, rangeâbound conditions that LPs thrive in.
It is not a tool for predicting trends or for "setâandâforget passive income." A grid is a disciplined, rulesâbased strategy with real risk if price leaves your range, which this documentation explains in plain terms.

Risk notice. Grid trading is lowârisk in sideways markets, not noârisk. If price breaks out of your range, the grid ends fully long or fully short. GRIDer gives you tools to manage that, backtesting, stopâloss and a closeâgrid price, but you decide the settings. Nothing here is financial advice.
