Unlike some Asian stock markets, the US stock market does not close for a midday break, which means trading continues for 6.5 hours without interruption. </span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-A7ped5tBioD1vBxcaVMu48NHseb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-BmikdPlizo6huxxo8cDuZ3YAsOg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Because the United States follows both <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time">daylight saving time</a> and standard time, the corresponding trading hours in Singapore change during the year. During daylight saving time, which generally runs from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, regular trading hours correspond to 9:30 pm to 4:00 am Singapore time. During standard time, they correspond to 10:30 pm to 5:00 am Singapore time. For investors, understanding this time shift can help with better trade planning.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-PamqdeSGWo0xP4xVCLWuR8GQsWd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-CSFMdGQ4roZsSoxUIA7upvvWstg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1.2 US pre-market trading hours</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-PntzdW2Pgot7QBxFwvauEXM7snO"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ZNWEdBZLtonqJixDPULunWHDsYg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Pre-market trading refers to trading activity before the regular session begins. For US stocks, this period runs from 4:00 am to 9:30 am ET, Monday through Friday. On the Singapore time basis used in this article, that corresponds to 4:00 pm to 9:30 pm during daylight saving time and 5:00 pm to 10:30 pm during standard time. </span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-BpvqdlP41onmzjxFxcourpImsah"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ULa2dpUOEohwEbx9xlvu8ofkssm"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Liquidity during pre-market hours is usually lower than during the regular session.

Compared with the A-share market, where purchases typically start from 100 shares, and the Hong Kong stock market, which trades in board lots, the US market has a much lower entry threshold. This system allows investors to allocate their portfolios more flexibly based on their available capital. Even for high-priced stocks, investors can participate by purchasing a smaller number of shares.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AooVdBaTyo9nALxuWlDuGQu8sYe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-ETmtdJMhAoOYXZxsga5uqzjgsUC"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1.2 Same-day round-trip trading system</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-XFLsdV8Jkozar8ximH6u9ybTs2g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-K2GVdOXlKoDUqHxZJl7ut0ZQsvd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The US stock market follows a T+0 trading system, which means investors can sell a stock on the same day they buy it.

A Spot grid trading bot is designed to capture profit opportunities during price fluctuations. By continuously buying low and selling high, it helps users earn grid profits and is well suited for volatile markets.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-D0Kedqy0lo5bm6xx0Aruf8Hbs0g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-GnOSdXYydopsJ0xELjLuYZjksEd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1.2 What kind of market conditions are suitable for Spot grid trading?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-PYvvd1zKfoGYbdxYQUFuEcQZsAf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-GE6OdimW4oXppgxzexKumRyss8d"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Spot grid trading works best in range-bound markets and markets with relatively narrow price fluctuations. When prices move repeatedly within a defined range, the grid strategy can continue executing buy-low, sell-high trades and accumulate profits over time. However, if the market enters a one-sided downtrend, it may result in unrealized losses on held positions.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-VL7qddZ0xoy3cXxWHKMu0NtfsDf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-ITREdFwrtoACw7xjIqpudFP1shh"><strong>2.

There are certain limits on the price range settings.

The number of grids is generally limited to between 2 and 200. Please note that the system will automatically adjust the upper limit of the number of grids based on the price range you set. If the price range is relatively narrow, the maximum number of grids may be reduced accordingly to ensure that the profit from each grid can cover the trading fees.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-CGDSd6Dc4oFjs8xaRk7u2TIHsad"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-E9v4dGQz0oomzDxfCovuhERYsWq"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2.3 Is there a minimum investment amount?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-HdZjdy1ubokUE8xc6pXuUKMoswd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Gc8pd65RfokHPix3mpiuH5cesxc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes.

Grid profit represents the cumulative realized profit from completed trades. However, total profit also includes the unrealized PNL of the held tokens. When token prices fall, unrealized losses may exceed the realized grid profit, resulting in negative total profit.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-UU86dfkVloulpQxm95uudQOPsFw"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-GNM1dh6zZo2r1Px7BNouBiVVsWd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.4 Can trading fees exceed grid profit?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-YrIRdkoazoMB88xW3ltucTD1sOe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-KyYbdmXwZohbkex4FNwuPVO1spb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">No. The MEXC Spot grid trading system ensures that trades are executed only when the grid profit is greater than the trading fees.

However, please note that the system may automatically adjust the investment amount based on the new parameters. It is recommended that you fully evaluate the potential impact before making any changes.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-SnwndKTnaoEPXzxwxjQuR9SlspO"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-Z2ZQdC6x9oJPnTxUgE9uiUzCsBb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">4.4 Can I withdraw realized grid profits?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Dpf2d2bUEoJQqexVtBYuFNposUf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-SQuCd9WkWoeXWtxDbK7uWSbYsre"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes. You can withdraw realized grid profits at any time while the strategy is running, and the withdrawn funds will be transferred to your Spot account. However, please note that part of the profit may need to remain in the strategy to support normal operation. The initial investment amount is the minimum amount that must remain in the strategy and cannot be withdrawn.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-NpSod9B12oJuWhxXQwruXAIFsyc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-GZfTdcJ37oQSomxAl8zuNt7SsEd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">4.5 Where do the funds go after the strategy ends?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-S1a2ddz27os8ujxRmYUumLEzsPc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Im9xdFWKtoidhYxNJxuukzHOsfd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">After your Spot Grid strategy is terminated, all funds, including the investment amount and realized profits, will be automatically returned to your Spot account.

The take-profit price must be higher than the upper limit of the price range. When the market price reaches the take-profit price, the strategy will stop automatically, and you can choose whether to sell the held tokens. The stop-loss price must be lower than the lower limit of the price range. When the market price falls to the stop-loss price, the strategy will stop automatically to help control losses.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Ev4ud4EQ2oB8KLxYVhuu8nPNsCf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-IBnKdEIvnoWjsWxtKInuxQNasYd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">5.4 Why is the amount I receive after the strategy ends lower than expected?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-O2lidbOnNoWwglxcW6XuVmbKscg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-MyPEdn5mtob1F0xClM1uMdm0sHe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">This may be caused by the following reasons:</span></div><ul start="1" class="list-bullet1"><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-TwMvdV0DKolaoCxX0DLuSi3LsGh" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;">If you choose to sell the held tokens when the strategy ends, the system will execute the sale at the market price, and standard Spot trading fees will apply.</span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ZJGMdUWsAoVV1XxMhgkuCDaeslg" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;">Market orders may involve some slippage.</span></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-YLq5dJCRGo5DiQx3DqpuRl28sBd" data-list="bullet"><div><span style="font-size: 16px;">Unrealized PNL will be settled into actual profit or loss when the strategy ends.</span></div></li></ul><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ErnFdE5veofdKtxE8FMu8DbIsdf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AgCjdSXrLo1aH5xNfK1uZIN9skd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">As a result, the final amount you receive may differ slightly from the total profit shown on the strategy details page.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-QuZpdnVUJoN2mtxBFWZuASUas0g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-Y2bydm8QKonRLaxO8wbuQwcbsib"><strong>6.

If the execution price of the initial market buy order deviates too much from the expected price due to slippage, it may result in insufficient arbitrage space or insufficient remaining funds to support all pending orders. In this case, the purchased tokens and remaining funds will both be returned to your trading account, and no funds will be lost.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-BXKndKc3WoYNePx95MRuXl7wshh"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-SNw1d67zJou9y3xcIKxuytWVsEz"><strong>7.

How to Use OCO Orders in Spot Trading

<div data-page-id="BQJddCEwEoZngFxu2QJuJ2hVsSc" data-lark-html-role="root" data-docx-has-block-data="true"><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus7fweKKOpVQbc6qH3V9lwGc"><strong>1. What is an OCO order?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-KE39dOOJroyS6gxUHHSu0YVRslt"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusmp9v08HrMWuquyFnICNRvg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">An OCO order is a trading strategy that combines a TP/SL order with a limit order into one order setup. Its core mechanism is simple: when one of the two orders is triggered and executed, or partially executed, the other order is automatically canceled. If you manually cancel either order, the other one will also be canceled at the same time.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-A6yndVCyroAKaxxTPpKubBAusyc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTv75AQVDeIaBHDhR1RaTze"><span style="font-size: 16px;">This automated one-cancels-the-other strategy is suitable for scenarios like this: you are bullish on a token but want to manage the risk of a wrong market call. You may want to take profit if the price rises, while also setting a stop-loss to protect your principal if the price falls.

The take-profit order and stop-loss order in an OCO order must be placed for the same trading pair. For example, if you place an OCO order for <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/exchange/BTC_USDT">BTC/USDT</a>, both orders must be for BTC/USDT and cannot involve different trading pairs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus8cZwadXwVYS69SL7UDuGhe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusjpPHLyVg8j7fKCXHR8yM3g"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.2 Will a stop order always be executed once triggered?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusUZKbS6uY56Slmcwzl8g85w"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTSLzW5MHKR9wOoxKdD6FVg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Not necessarily. When a stop order is triggered, the system only submits the corresponding order automatically. If the market is highly volatile or liquidity is insufficient, especially for stop-limit orders, the order may not be filled immediately at the expected price. Under extreme market conditions, it is recommended to leave a reasonable gap between the stop-limit price and the trigger price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXmW0G2trjyFoZXxb0xtI1c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusYnGwKh8fG8lmHO67jm7FMd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.3 Will an OCO order freeze my assets?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusIl5arBuvfkiVj5KixgrS4g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusSzIb292zmZTGzLUToB2zTe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes.

Unlike some Asian stock markets, the US stock market does not close for a midday break, which means trading continues for 6.5 hours without interruption. </span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-A7ped5tBioD1vBxcaVMu48NHseb"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-BmikdPlizo6huxxo8cDuZ3YAsOg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Because the United States follows both <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time">daylight saving time</a> and standard time, the corresponding trading hours in Singapore change during the year.

Doing so can help you build a more complete investment framework and make more rational investment decisions.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-X1vgdBCuioOedkxByw0uxyBNsJg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-FE80d4JMioEBonxyaD6uqYWus3d"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Trade Real</strong><strong>Stocks </strong>&amp; BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/trade-stocks">https://www.mexc.com/trade-stocks</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-QrsRd4EUKoZ6tlxqoJvufPnCspd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-Qz9RdtaNqo6KHBxEdCBudkMus1g"><strong>1. Core Trading Rules of the US Stock Market</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-DKugdCgkFotqBSxO4YmufLGKsk0"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-DnR9dXc1woJ9asxXo6EuPJgmsMh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1.1 Minimum trading unit</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-DMj5dn8i8opeABxDRLQuoAnqsDY"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-VqNRdvYfEoNCjZxdVZsulkjBsdV"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The minimum trading unit in the US stock market is 1 share. Compared with the A-share market, where purchases typically start from 100 shares, and the Hong Kong stock market, which trades in board lots, the US market has a much lower entry threshold. This system allows investors to allocate their portfolios more flexibly based on their available capital. Even for high-priced stocks, investors can participate by purchasing a smaller number of shares.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AooVdBaTyo9nALxuWlDuGQu8sYe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-ETmtdJMhAoOYXZxsga5uqzjgsUC"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1.2 Same-day round-trip trading system</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-XFLsdV8Jkozar8ximH6u9ybTs2g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-K2GVdOXlKoDUqHxZJl7ut0ZQsvd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The US stock market follows a T+0 trading system, which means investors can sell a stock on the same day they buy it. This system provides higher capital efficiency and greater trading flexibility, making it particularly suitable for strategies that need to respond quickly to market changes.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Yxo8d5he5oPED8xwI6YuMwJ0szg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-X8JbdFquKomNzixJ5s2unPfVstg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">It is worth noting that although trading follows a T+0 model, cash and securities settlement still follows a T+1 cycle. In practice, this means that after selling a stock, the proceeds can usually be used immediately for further trading, but can only be withdrawn after settlement is completed on the next trading day.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-TrVEdinD4oDYKwxhnHNuGJHmsKf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-UlTHdOfVroLixSx9AZTulnnRsIe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">For example, if an investor buys and sells a stock on Monday, the sale proceeds will be settled on Tuesday.

However, settlement follows a T+1 cycle, so proceeds from selling stocks are generally not available for withdrawal until the next trading day after settlement is completed.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-LWPvdSg0noGAYyxDENguCW7ysWf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-UtAKdKMxho5G03xRNMtuFH4Ysbf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">4.2 Are there daily price limits in the US stock market?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-DHlyddgQGo4HvxxZh5OukniksQf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-EpA0dSSJKo5gWDxbFyTuI04osed"><span style="font-size: 16px;">No. The US stock market does not have a daily price limit.

It is the world's largest and most mature capital market and is made up of three major exchanges: the NYSE, Nasdaq, and AMEX. Through MEXC's partner broker, global investors can participate in US stock investing more conveniently.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-IjNzdd9EhoHPgtx3pkNu5xWNswe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-DOpndSlV4oqzOLxUi3XuIaHHsqb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">5.2 How can I invest in US stock indexes?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-J5OIdMYHso8Wbzx8pWJufQMZs0f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-D6pwdgqSeoRyZ4x0UN5ub7yBsTn"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Although indexes themselves cannot be traded directly, retail investors typically gain exposure through index ETFs such as SPY and QQQ, or by purchasing constituent stocks directly. At the same time, investors can also access US stock-related trading products on MEXC to participate in the price movements of constituent stocks such as Apple and Microsoft.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Hk49dHRDoosrilxRWIhuzssBsgf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-GgLDdF0smok0PmxB6YSuf6N4sIg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">5.3 Which is more important, the S&amp;P 500 or the Dow?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-BuyfdsD7No2DeQxhxNAumPSQsQc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AuVsdAfZAoQP9yxQP5euWXMusnd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The S&amp;P 500 is generally more useful as a market reference because it includes 500 companies and represents around 80% of US stock market capitalization. It provides a broader and more accurate picture of overall market performance and is also the benchmark most commonly used by institutional investors. The Dow is more widely recognized by the public, but because it includes only 30 stocks, it is less comprehensive.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-FGDWdCPA3oQ4pIxHKx2uZTjOsNc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-ZPzkdmpIOoh7KHx71FpuwyDxs0X"><span style="font-size: 16px;">5.4 Why is the Nasdaq more volatile?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-NUvEdIy1ZoDHQlxAF3juE8CJsme"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-WDsjd63rRoHqtwxG2EeuFG9isCf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Around 60% of Nasdaq's constituents come from the technology sector, and tech stocks are generally more sensitive to changes in interest rates, market sentiment, and growth expectations. Many of these companies are high-growth businesses with less stable earnings, which can lead to larger swings in valuation. By comparison, the Dow and the S&amp;P 500 include more traditional blue-chip companies and tend to show more stable performance.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-K8bedGXx5obvvFxBoRwuywPesVg"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-BUcndB0VYo9NHhxp6s0uKlkCskg"><strong style="font-size: 16px;">Recommended reading:</strong></h3><ul start="1" class="list-bullet1"><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-O5VMdW3Lao79g9xVv1duUyxEshf" data-list="bullet"><div><a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/learn/article/17827791535795" style="font-size: 16px;">What Is RealStocks?</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-CriQdTIyRo98Zlxv8h5uCHVQstc" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/realstocks-trading-faq-382924861612411904" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">RealStocks Trading FAQ</a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-OQ6Bd4I3xoRQ7VxQZGTu7fuVsph" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/understanding-the-basic-trading-rules-of-the-us-stock-market-353097164145019904" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">Understanding the Basic Trading Rules of the US Stock Market </a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Efk4d64yHo9F7ixR4waujyNgsue" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/us-stock-market-trading-hours-and-holidays-357457114296227840" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">US Stock Market Trading Hours and Holidays: A Time Zone Guide </a></div></li><li class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-OBeldU03eoNRIqxr1wHuL63RsZb" data-list="bullet"><div><a href="https://www.mexc.com/support/article/a-guide-to-us-stock-overnight-trading-357458016239358976" data-lark-is-custom="true" style="font-size: 16px;">A Guide to US Stock Overnight Trading: Trading Hours, Rules, and Risk Analysis </a></div></li></ul><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-VcgRdtqnloWYWrx97CwuEXsGsVe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-E9NUdj3VAoA41nxy4Y3uWCz3syb"><strong style="font-size: 16px;">Disclaimer:</strong></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Denbdj9MDoCCl5xqRUpuDszdsHe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-VIlad54gzof5FvxX8JVurLuUsIJ"><span style="font-size: 16px;">The information provided herein is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, tax, or legal advice.

A Spot grid trading bot is designed to capture profit opportunities during price fluctuations. By continuously buying low and selling high, it helps users earn grid profits and is well suited for volatile markets.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-D0Kedqy0lo5bm6xx0Aruf8Hbs0g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-GnOSdXYydopsJ0xELjLuYZjksEd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">1.2 What kind of market conditions are suitable for Spot grid trading?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-PYvvd1zKfoGYbdxYQUFuEcQZsAf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-GE6OdimW4oXppgxzexKumRyss8d"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Spot grid trading works best in range-bound markets and markets with relatively narrow price fluctuations. When prices move repeatedly within a defined range, the grid strategy can continue executing buy-low, sell-high trades and accumulate profits over time. However, if the market enters a one-sided downtrend, it may result in unrealized losses on held positions.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-VL7qddZ0xoy3cXxWHKMu0NtfsDf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-ITREdFwrtoACw7xjIqpudFP1shh"><strong>2.

The number of grids is generally limited to between 2 and 200. Please note that the system will automatically adjust the upper limit of the number of grids based on the price range you set. If the price range is relatively narrow, the maximum number of grids may be reduced accordingly to ensure that the profit from each grid can cover the trading fees.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-CGDSd6Dc4oFjs8xaRk7u2TIHsad"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-E9v4dGQz0oomzDxfCovuhERYsWq"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2.3 Is there a minimum investment amount?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-HdZjdy1ubokUE8xc6pXuUKMoswd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Gc8pd65RfokHPix3mpiuH5cesxc"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes.

Grid profit represents the cumulative realized profit from completed trades. However, total profit also includes the unrealized PNL of the held tokens. When token prices fall, unrealized losses may exceed the realized grid profit, resulting in negative total profit.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-UU86dfkVloulpQxm95uudQOPsFw"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-GNM1dh6zZo2r1Px7BNouBiVVsWd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.4 Can trading fees exceed grid profit?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-YrIRdkoazoMB88xW3ltucTD1sOe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-KyYbdmXwZohbkex4FNwuPVO1spb"><span style="font-size: 16px;">No. The MEXC Spot grid trading system ensures that trades are executed only when the grid profit is greater than the trading fees.

You can withdraw realized grid profits at any time while the strategy is running, and the withdrawn funds will be transferred to your Spot account. However, please note that part of the profit may need to remain in the strategy to support normal operation.

The take-profit price must be higher than the upper limit of the price range. When the market price reaches the take-profit price, the strategy will stop automatically, and you can choose whether to sell the held tokens.

For example, if you set a lower buy price while the market price remains above that level, your order will stay open until the market reaches your price. </span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-ECE7drOGboc2GxxfSFeuM7ols78"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-AN0RdUQk4oJhktxxQTwuBURls0b"><span style="font-size: 16px;">2.

How to Use OCO Orders in Spot Trading

<div data-page-id="BQJddCEwEoZngFxu2QJuJ2hVsSc" data-lark-html-role="root" data-docx-has-block-data="true"><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxus7fweKKOpVQbc6qH3V9lwGc"><strong>1. What is an OCO order?</strong></h2><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-KE39dOOJroyS6gxUHHSu0YVRslt"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusmp9v08HrMWuquyFnICNRvg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">An OCO order is a trading strategy that combines a TP/SL order with a limit order into one order setup. Its core mechanism is simple: when one of the two orders is triggered and executed, or partially executed, the other order is automatically canceled. If you manually cancel either order, the other one will also be canceled at the same time.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-A6yndVCyroAKaxxTPpKubBAusyc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTv75AQVDeIaBHDhR1RaTze"><span style="font-size: 16px;">This automated one-cancels-the-other strategy is suitable for scenarios like this: you are bullish on a token but want to manage the risk of a wrong market call. You may want to take profit if the price rises, while also setting a stop-loss to protect your principal if the price falls. With an OCO order, you do not need to monitor the market at all times, as the system will execute the trade automatically based on your preset conditions.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-Ytcgd5mYRoWcZkxLKzTuXkZss4f"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align:center" class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusE0g33RWm8inDFOOecUqXNd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">*BTN-<strong>Start Spot Trading</strong>&amp;BTNURL=<a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/exchange/BTC_USDT">https://www.mexc.com/exchange/BTC_USDT</a>*</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus1i0VQO5M0ur3jfNMF6mYlk"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h2 class="heading-2 ace-line old-record-id-doxusp7brpTBX06iy6Kd3bPfYtd"><strong>2.

The take-profit order and stop-loss order in an OCO order must be placed for the same trading pair. For example, if you place an OCO order for <a data-lark-is-custom="true" href="https://www.mexc.com/exchange/BTC_USDT">BTC/USDT</a>, both orders must be for BTC/USDT and cannot involve different trading pairs.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxus8cZwadXwVYS69SL7UDuGhe"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusjpPHLyVg8j7fKCXHR8yM3g"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.2 Will a stop order always be executed once triggered?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusUZKbS6uY56Slmcwzl8g85w"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusTSLzW5MHKR9wOoxKdD6FVg"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Not necessarily. When a stop order is triggered, the system only submits the corresponding order automatically. If the market is highly volatile or liquidity is insufficient, especially for stop-limit orders, the order may not be filled immediately at the expected price. Under extreme market conditions, it is recommended to leave a reasonable gap between the stop-limit price and the trigger price.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXmW0G2trjyFoZXxb0xtI1c"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusYnGwKh8fG8lmHO67jm7FMd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.3 Will an OCO order freeze my assets?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusIl5arBuvfkiVj5KixgrS4g"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusSzIb292zmZTGzLUToB2zTe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes. When you place an OCO order, the system will freeze the required assets or positions for that order. If your account balance is insufficient, the order cannot be submitted successfully. Frozen assets cannot be used for other trades until the order is executed or canceled.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusohTOHBkGuCO1rmfGfEI4bd"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusbBpr56E5hbINtuRU3NK6Ig"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.4 What happens if I manually cancel one of the orders in an OCO order?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusRM6NJ5GxcQMhFDDh0nvWbf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusabwiFelj1oHy10fczcHACf"><span style="font-size: 16px;">On the MEXC platform, if you manually cancel either order in an OCO order, the other linked order will also be canceled at the same time. This is the built-in linkage mechanism of OCO orders, ensuring that both orders always function as one complete order setup.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusJexhQjfGnaNFckEbfZSWvc"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusS9mbyfL8u1SSGdC2iOFAhe"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.5 Do OCO orders support partial fills?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusXQAm1r5y4NsiwNQPx9qTBf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusi19wMW2a7JQIfGz3HCTZgd"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Yes. If the limit order in an OCO order is partially filled, the system will handle the remaining order based on the actual execution. The specific rules are subject to the actual execution logic of the MEXC platform. It is recommended that you review the relevant rules before placing an order.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusmHRKtzY8qLbEgJJFlE5Lib"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusuSRdB9rPrQb2YAoNCl9DPP"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.6 Can OCO orders fail under extreme market conditions?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusGzEYlslHUqvFCYhgqArYLf"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusPD0Z13C7RMCR19risvG0Fv"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Under fast and highly volatile market conditions, there may be extreme cases where neither the take-profit order nor the stop-loss order is executed as expected. In addition, if there is a network interruption or system abnormality, the order may fail to be sent to the orderbook and executed properly. It is recommended that you review and adjust your OCO settings in advance when major data releases or sharp market swings are expected.</span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusbx5Fopi5Bw8i5jzoxZcWOD"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><h3 class="heading-3 ace-line old-record-id-doxusD83olAmnRbaaHGGwdI9YOh"><span style="font-size: 16px;">3.7 Are OCO orders suitable for beginners?</span></h3><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusKo7gUHKEaXvxUS9Jtx4k1b"><span style="font-size: 16px;"><br></span></div><div class="ace-line ace-line old-record-id-doxusZLVI2iG9mYLZ0BT8C7zrLl"><span style="font-size: 16px;">OCO orders are an advanced trading tool.
