# Grid Trading

Grid trading lets you automate strategies and capture market swings without constant monitoring. By placing buy and sell orders at preset price intervals, you can profit from volatility whether the market is moving up, down, or sideways.

Aster supports three grid strategies: neutral, long, and short — giving you the flexibility to match your approach to different market conditions. You can use auto-generated parameters or configure your own.
