Balance Range

Balance Range watches one ratio: how much of your total balance is actually on the exchange. Drift outside the band you set and the bot tells you, and tells you how much to move to fix it.

It is the only setting on the Risk Management panel that cannot stop a trade. It has no opinion about size, risk or margin - it is a warning, and nothing else.

Where to find it

Main menu → 📊 Risk Management → ⚖️ Balance Range

Reply with two numbers and a hyphen - 15-25, minimum on the left. Spaces around the hyphen are fine (15 - 25); a comma is not. Anything the bot cannot read as a range comes back naming the format:

'15,25' isn't in min-max format, e.g. 15-25.

What the range is a range of

share on exchange = exchange wallet balance ÷ total balance × 100

and total balance is your exchange balance plus your Collateral Balance.

So the percentage is not about a position, or about margin, or about how much you are risking. It answers one question: of everything the bot sizes trades against, how much of it is where trades can actually be paid for?

Why it exists

Every percentage the bot works in is a percentage of total balance, and collateral counts toward that total. But only the exchange balance can be posted as margin. Those two facts together make a specific failure possible: an account that looks healthy - a large total balance, trades sized generously against it - while almost nothing is on the exchange to back them. The trades are then refused for leverage or margin, one after another, and nothing about the risk settings explains why.

Balance Range is the check for that gap. It compares the two balances on every fetch and speaks up before the rejections start.

The other direction matters too, and is the reason the band has an upper bound as well as a lower one. Holding everything on the exchange means holding everything somewhere it can be lost to the exchange rather than to your trading.

The warning

The warning fires whenever the share falls outside your band, and names an amount to move. This account holds $2145.30 on the exchange against a $2645.30 total - 81.1% on the exchange, far above its own 15-25 band:

The suggested amount always aims for the midpoint of your own band, not its nearest edge - landing on the edge would put you one small move away from the warning returning. Here the midpoint of 15-25 is 20%, which is $529.06 of a $2645.30 total, so it asks for $1616.24 to be moved off the exchange. Below the band the message inverts, asking you to add to the exchange instead.

You see it in two places:

• at the top of the 📊 Risk Management panel, whenever you open it while out of range, exactly as above;
• as a ⚠️ Balance Warning notification while a trade is being processed, since the bot fetches your live balance there anyway.

Accepted values

The prompt states the rule itself:

Reply with min-max, e.g. 15-25. Must be 0 < min < max ≤ 100.

A minimum equal to or above the maximum is refused, and so is 0 on either side.
