Grid bot simulator: how would a buy ladder have done?

Pick a period and your ladder: buy on every fixed drop, sell each buy at a fixed profit, never at a loss. The simulator runs it on Bitvavo's real BTC-EUR daily prices (8 Mar 2019 to 5 Nov 2026).

How the simulator works

On day 1 it buys one slice at the close. When the price drops one step below the lowest open buy, it buys the next slice, as long as slices are left.
Each slice has its own sell limit at buy price plus the profit target. If the day's high reaches it, it is sold. Nothing is ever sold at a loss: a slice that isn't above its buy price yet simply waits. The money in those slices works again once they are sold.
Everything sold? It buys back in at the next day's close.
Simplified: daily candles (high, low, close), no slippage, a slice bought today can only sell tomorrow. The real bot works per minute with a depth budget and two ladders; see how it works.
Results are history, not a forecast and not advice.
