Steps

  1. 1Geometric ratio = (12/8)^(1/10) = 1.0414 → spacing 4.14%
  2. 2Half capital as base position, half ¥50,000 split into 10 grids = ¥5000/grid
  3. 3Round-trip fees = 2 × 0.05% = 0.10% — grid spacing must exceed this or you lose on every trade
  4. 4*Annualized assumes each grid triggers ~6 round trips/yr — highly dependent on volatility

💡 Grid trading profits from oscillation, not direction — it shines in range-bound markets and bleeds in trends (left holding bags in a crash, sold out too early in a rally). Rules: spacing must beat round-trip fees; geometric grids suit wide ranges; never grid a single stock you wouldn't hold long-term. ETFs (broad index, gold) are safer grid vehicles than individual stocks.
