Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) splits capital into a series of buy or sell trades so you average into a move instead of deploying everything at one price. In QENREX, DCA is a first-class bot type with AI Presets or full manual parameters.
General principle
You choose direction (long or short), investment size, and how entries step as price moves. The bot places staged orders, then aims to exit according to your take-profit and risk filters — without needing you to click every level.
When DCA fits
- You expect a directional move but want entries during pullbacks
- You are comfortable holding a series until Take Profit (or your stop rules fire)
- You have capped the number of steps and total exposure in advance
When to be careful
- Strong trends against your bias can fill many steps and stress margin
- Unlimited averaging is not a plan — always set a maximum series
- High-impact news can gap through multiple levels at once
AI Presets
Pick asset, position type, and investment amount. Conservative, Optimal, or Aggressive presets fill typical spacing and risk posture — or open Customize parameters for order size, step distance, volume growth, Take Profit, and filters.
