Can you earn yield on a coin without your LP selling it all on the way up? In this video I walk through LiquidBots, a grid trading platform on Hyperliquid, and set up a live long grid on NEAR from $4 to $6. Along the way I bridge USDC from Arbitrum, grab HYPE for gas, fund my LiquidBots account, and show my own open bots, fees included.

WHAT I COVER
• Why I’d rather run a long grid than an LP when I think a bull run is coming. A concentrated LP that runs through the top of its range ends up all in USDC, while a long grid keeps holding the token.
• The downside: if price drops below your range, you stop earning and still hold the asset.
• Trading fees on Hyperliquid and LiquidBots eat into your grid APR, so check them before you judge a bot.
• New bots show inflated APRs early. LiquidBots itself says to give it about 7 days before trusting the number.
