The GT-Shadow is an advanced EA with lots of settings that make it programmable to trade in various ways. It is like a swiss army knife, so you can program your own grid trading system into it, as well as program it to trade exactly like the GridWeaver or exactly like the RoboMiner. It can also be programmed to trade 2 currency pairs at once in a spread. By the way, it is that feature that makes it difficult to back test the GT-Shadow. It does not get its market information from the chart it is on, but from internal Metatrader function calls. So, often, it cannot be backtested. You can, however, download a demo and forward test it to your heart's content. In summary, the GT-Shdow is not a trading system in itself, but can be programmed to trade various systems.
The GridWeaver is set to trade the one particular system that it trades on the EUR/GBP, using a Dynamic Grid that expands and contracts. If you wish, you can program the GT-Shadow to trade that exact same system on the EUR/GBP or even on a different currency pair.
