# Practical Examples

#### Practical Examples

1. **Simple Range Market Making**\
   • Select ADA/MIN as your pair.\
   • Place buys every 1% below the current market and sells every 1% above.\
   • Surge automatically cycles through these trades as price moves.\
   • Earn fees and capture volatility without picking a direction.
2. **Grid Trading Bot**\
   • Configure a grid of buy/sell orders across a wide price band (e.g., $0.35–$0.55 ADA).\
   • As ADA fluctuates, Surge executes trades at each grid level.\
   • Profits accumulate from repeated swing cycles.\
   • Great for sideways markets with frequent oscillations.
3. **DCA Accumulation Strategy**\
   • Set Surge to buy ADA with MIN in fixed increments every 4 hours.\
   • The bot executes consistently, averaging your entry price over time.\
   • Works for accumulation of long-term tokens without needing to time the market.
4. **Automated Sell Ladder**\
   • Upload a CSV or configure manually: sell 10% of holdings at $0.45, $0.50, $0.55, etc.\
   • Surge runs in the background and executes as targets are hit.\
   • Locks in profits automatically during rallies.
5. **Arbitrage Across Pairs**\
   • Detect that SNEK/ADA is mispriced compared to SNEK/USDM.\
   • Surge bot borrows ADA, converts into SNEK, then sells SNEK into USDM.\
   • Net profit comes from the pricing gap, with automated execution closing the loop.
6. **Stop-Loss with Trailing Take-Profit**\
   • Buy ADA at $0.40 and set Surge to sell at $0.46.\
   • Add a trailing stop so if ADA keeps climbing, the bot follows the price up and only sells once momentum slows.\
   • Protects downside while maximizing upside.
7. **Liquidity Cycling Strategy**\
   • Configure the bot to alternate between ADA and USDM based on price bands.\
   • Example: buy ADA when under $0.38, sell back into USDM when over $0.44.\
   • Over time this compounds profits while keeping exposure balanced.
8. **Auto-Market Maker with Rebates**\
   • Run a high-frequency market-making bot on ADA/USDM.\
   • Tight spreads generate constant micro-fees.\
   • The more volume your bot contributes, the more Surge rebates you earn — turning activity itself into revenue.
