One-Way Position Mode

To launch any GinArea bots except default bots, you need to use One-Way Position Mode on the exchange.

GinArea bots work according to the order - trigger principle. The exact entry price and closing trigger values are always available in the bot statistics, in the “Orders” section.

Each bot works only with its own orders and its own triggers. This allows several different bots to run on the same trading pair at the same time, including bots trading in different directions. Hedge Mode is not required for this.
