Spot grid trading genuinely shines in sideways markets.

I ran an ETH grid 2500-3500, 10 levels each side, over three months. Grid profit came out to ~8%, while the underlying ETH also appreciated 15% — 23% combined.

The risk: a clean breakdown below 2500 turns all those buy-ladders into underwater bags. So grids work best when you've identified a range, not a trend. Match tool to regime.
