Scheduled Sweeps

circle-info

*Scheduled Sweeps from Trading to Consumption Account are coming soon. Currently, all units are transferred to the Consumption Account as soon as the trade is filled.

On The Grid, Scheduled Sweeps are the automatic process that moves Units from your Trading Account into your Consumption Account every four hours (00:00, 04:00, 08:00, 12:00, 16:00, 20:00 UTC). Until a Sweep runs, purchased Units sit in your Trading Account and can still be resold on the order book. This is the mechanism that connects trading activity to actual inference delivery - it gives buyers a window to adjust their position before capacity becomes locked for consumption.

How Sweeps work

To ensure Units bought and sold on the market are with the intent of short-term usage, The Grid runs a Scheduled Sweep every 4 hours 00:00 UTC, 04:00, 08:00, and so on.

At the moment of each Sweep, all Units in your Trading Account, across all Instruments, are automatically transferred to your Consumption Account. This includes Units that are in open sell orders.

As always, Units in your Consumption Account

  • Have 4 hours to be used before they expire

  • Cannot be transferred back to your Trading Account, and therefore can never be resold
