📄 Correction on XAU Trading Agent Performance on Lighter
We would like to correct the high APR claim of around 400%. This figure was based on our XAU Vault agents, which run on exchanges that allow much higher leverage, around 100–200x.
For Lighter agents, the setup is different. Since leverage is limited to around 20x, more equity is required to hold the same trade structure. As a result, the APR and DD profile are adjusted as follows:
• Shallow Grid: Minimum balance $240 | DD ~20% | APR ~175%
• Deep Grid: Minimum balance $450 | DD ~14.2% | APR ~101%
*Note: DD and APR are estimates and may vary in live trading due to seasonal market movements and asset volatility.*
Suggestion for Lighter:
- Choose Shallow Grid for higher APR and smaller starting capital, but accept higher %DD and occasional loss cuts.
- Choose Deep Grid for a smoother profile and lower %DD, but it requires more equity and gives lower APR.
