Overview

I’m running a crypto grid trading system and need a trading automation specialist to help configure and automate it inside Gunbot (v25).

The trading strategy is already designed — it uses:
- ATR-based dynamic grid spacing
- Dual trailing logic (up and down)
- A drawdown throttle that automatically scales exposure

Your job is to translate these rules into a working Gunbot setup using STEPGRID + TSSL and AutoConfig, with optional helper scripting for automation and monitoring.

Core Objectives

You will:
- Implement the existing grid model on Gunbot for BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT, and SOLUSDT
- Configure ATR-based grid spacing (GRID_STEP = k × ATR(15m,14) with adjustable multiplier)
- Set up dual trailing (up & down) using TSSL and STEPGRID

Build AutoConfig rules that:
- Widen grid spacing when ATR increases
- Reduce order size or grids when unrealized drawdown > X%
- Pause new buys when DD > X% (resume when DD < X%)
- Recenter the grid range automatically when price exits window

Add risk controls:
- Per-pair stop-loss (~?X%)
- Leverage cap (3–5× isolated)
- Optional portfolio drawdown halt (?X%)
- Produce clean logs: fills per day, realized/unrealized PnL, fees, and DD events
- Document how to adjust parameters (ATR multipliers, DD thresholds, etc.)

Requirements

Must Have:
- Experience configuring Gunbot or similar crypto trading bots
- Understanding of ATR(14), Bollinger Bands, and volatility-based trading
- Familiarity with crypto futures (Binance, Bybit, OKX, or MEXC)
- Knowledge of margin, funding, and isolated leverage
- Skilled at editing JSON/YAML configs and testing bot logic
- Ability to backtest or paper-trade strategies for verification
- Reliable English communication and documentation habits

Nice to Have:
- Python or Node.js scripting skills (for logging or helper automation)
- Experience with exchange APIs (Binance, Bybit, OKX)
- Understanding of risk & portfolio management principles
- Familiarity with Gunbot backtester or paper-trading tools
- Basic Linux/Windows VPS operation for 24/7 uptime

Deliverables
- Working Gunbot configuration + AutoConfig files for BTC, ETH, and SOL
- (Optional) Helper script (Python/Node.js) for logging and DD monitoring
- Step-by-step README explaining setup, parameters, and adjustment logic
- Short demonstration in paper mode (screenshots or brief screen-share)
