Preset Selection Guide
Every bot on VOIDX is deployed from a preset — a complete, ready-to-run configuration. You browse them in the Marketplace tab of the trading terminal. This page explains everything you see there and how to choose.Every number on a Marketplace card is read straight from the preset’s real configuration — grid levels, spans, exposure, take-profit targets. Nothing on a card is a performance figure, because the platform does not invent performance figures.
What You’ll See in the Marketplace
The catalog currently shows 41 preset cards built from 54 underlying presets across 4 strategy families:| Family | Cards | What it does in one line |
|---|---|---|
| Vortex DCA | 24 | Buys dips on a widening grid, takes quick ~0.2% profits; a wave queue extends the grid to rescue the position if price keeps falling |
| XGrid (Perp MM) | 10 | High-frequency grid scalper that quotes around price and follows momentum with tight take-profits |
| GLFT MM | 4 | Quotes both sides of the book around fair value, earning the spread while keeping inventory in check |
| Long-Only DCA | 3 | Long-only ladder that accumulates on the way down and sells each rung at a small fixed profit |
Exchange variant toggle
When the same preset exists on more than one exchange (e.g. “v7 Long Short Counterscalp” on both Bybit and BloFin), the Marketplace merges them into one card with an exchange toggle — small Bybit/BloFin buttons in the card footer. Switching the toggle swaps in that exchange’s actual config, so the stat tiles update to the variant you’d deploy. Thirteen cards currently have both Bybit and BloFin variants, including all four GLFT cards and the featured Vortex Waves presets. Other presets are single-exchange (including three DEFX presets on Base).Featured row
The top of the unfiltered catalog shows three featured presets — the first suggested presets in the registry. Currently these are the Vortex DCA wave-queue lineup:- Vortex Waves Never Stuck — wave-queue rescue with back-loaded wave budgets
- Vortex Waves Anchored — same, plus anchor-stable grids for minimal order churn
- Vortex Waves Never Stuck (Multi-Symbol) — the same engine across multiple symbols at 30% exposure each
Risk pills
Each card carries a risk tier pill: Conservative, Moderate, or Aggressive. These reflect the preset author’s classification of the configuration (sizing, leverage, stops) — they are not predictions. Most presets are Moderate; the GLFT family splits explicitly into Conservative and Aggressive variants.Reading the Stat Tiles
Each card shows 3–4 stat tiles read from the preset’s config. What they mean depends on the family:Vortex DCA cards
| Tile | Config field | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Grid levels | nr_clusters | Buy orders in the ladder per side (4 in current presets) |
| Grid span | outer_distance | Distance from current price to the deepest order (e.g. 4.2%). With dynamic spacing the live value breathes around this |
| Max exposure | wallet_exposure | Percent of your wallet budgeted per symbol (the soft cap). Wave-queue presets can deploy up to 1.5x this during a rescue (the hard cap) |
| Min TP | minimum_tp | Take-profit distance from average entry (e.g. 0.2%) |
XGrid (Perp MM) cards
| Tile | Config field | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Base spread | spread.base_spread_bps | Starting distance of quotes from mid-price (shown when the preset sets it) |
| Quote levels | proactive_multilevel.levels | Orders per side (2–6) |
| Max position | position.max_position_usdt | Hard position ceiling in USDT |
| Leverage | position.leverage | All current presets: 75x |
GLFT MM cards
| Tile | Config field | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Min profit | min_profit_bps | Minimum profit target per round trip (12–16 bps) |
| Max position | max_position_usdt | Position cap per symbol |
| Quote levels | grid.levels | Quote levels per side (2) |
| Leverage | leverage | All current presets: 20x |
Long-Only DCA cards
| Tile | Config field | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Rung spacing | grid_spacing | Distance between ladder rungs (0.3–0.5%) |
| Max levels | maximum_levels | Maximum rungs in the ladder (10–12) |
| Take profit | tp_percentage | Profit target per rung (0.3–0.5%) |
The detail modal
Clicking a card opens a detail view with the plain-English summary, the full technical description from the registry, and a key parameters grid listing the preset’s scalar settings — useful for comparing two candidates before deploying. The Deploy button opens the same deploy wizard the rest of the platform uses, prefilled with the preset.How to Choose
Start from your situation
“I’m new to trading bots.” → Featured Vortex Waves Never Stuck (or Anchored) on your exchange. The buy-dip → average → take-profit cycle is the easiest to follow in the logs, and the wave queue plus a $150 drawdown stop bound the downside better than the older Vortex presets. Run it on one symbol first. “I want market making with few knobs.” → GLFT Optimal MM Conservative: 500 max position, 200 drawdown stop, 20x leverage. Spread placement is computed by the model, not by you. “I’m experienced and want the configurable scalper.” → MM Professional 2-Level to start (2 levels, 1.5–3% equity sizing), then v7/v8 Counterscalp once you understand the loss-tier and counter-scalp behavior. All run 75x leverage — read the Perp MM guide first. “I’m long-term bullish on one asset and accept holding through drawdowns.” → Long-Only DCA (Conservative: 0.5% rungs, 0.5% TP; Aggressive: 0.3% rungs, deeper ladder). Note the martingale sizing: deeper rungs are roughly double the previous. “I want to spread risk across symbols.” → Multi-symbol variants exist in three families: Vortex Waves Never Stuck (Multi-Symbol) (30% per symbol), GLFT Multi (BTC/ETH/SOL/SUI/XRP, 1,000 cap per symbol), and MM Professional 2-Level Multi-Symbol.Then sanity-check three numbers
- Max exposure / max position — is the worst-case deployed amount something you can hold through a drawdown? For Vortex wave-queue presets multiply the exposure tile by 1.5 (the hard cap).
- Leverage — 75x (XGrid family) and 20x (GLFT) change what a 1% move does to margin.
- The stop — Vortex Waves: 100–$500; XGrid family: 10% hard stop plus timed force-exits; Long-Only DCA: no stop — it holds by design.
Customizing After Selection
A preset is a starting point. In the deploy wizard (or later via bot settings) the common adjustments are:Reduce risk
Reduce risk
- Vortex: lower
wallet_exposure; keep the wave queue on (it’s the rescue system, not the risk) - XGrid family: lower
equity_pct(e.g. 5 → 2), reducemax_position_usdt, lower leverage - GLFT: use the Conservative variant rather than tuning the Aggressive one down
Trade a different symbol
Trade a different symbol
Change the symbol in the deploy wizard. Prefer liquid markets — thin books widen spreads, worsen fills, and break the assumptions behind all four families.
Increase aggression
Increase aggression
Raise
equity_pct / wallet_exposure or quote sizes — after you’ve watched the preset run at stock settings long enough to know what its drawdowns look like.Risk Reminder
