FAQ

Are KuCoin trading bots free?

Yes. KuCoin says there is no subscription fee for the spot grid; orders pay normal trading fees.

What is the minimum for a KuCoin grid bot?

About 10 USDT for BTC/USDT; KuCoin says the minimum varies by pair.

Can I use KuCoin bots in the United States?

No. The United States is on KuCoin’s restricted list.

KuCoin grid vs DCA: which to choose?

A grid bot earns from many small trades while price moves inside a range. A DCA bot buys in steps to lower the average entry price and suits a longer trend. Fees matter more for grids because they trade more often.
