What is DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging)?

DCA stands for Dollar Cost Averaging. This is an investment strategy in which investors invest their funds periodically. For example, Investor A is having $1000 and wants to purchase bitcoins for $1000. Instead of buying bitcoins of $1000, he will buy bitcoins of $100 every week. The main idea behind this strategy is to divide funds into smaller chunks to invest periodically. This is one of the safest investment strategies in the market.

1. Select Coin: Click “Search coin name” and select a coin that the DCA bot will buy in a periodic manner. It can be any from BTC, ETH, ETC, LTC, XRP, etc.
2. Select Period: This is a duration or a period between every purchase. For example, it can be weekly if you want to buy a bitcoin of 100 USDT every week. This tool supports a period like 10 Min, 1 Hour, 2 Hours, 1 Day, 1 Week, 1 Month.
3. Select Investment: Amount that is invested during each purchase. It should be greater than and equal to 2 USDT. For example, 100 USDT if you want to buy a bitcoin of 100 USDT every week.

So, we configured the DCA bot to buy LTC coins of 10 USDT every day in the above image. It also shows total investment per week as 7 days * 10 USDT = 70 USDT.
