How it works

How a DCA Bot works on Lighter

A DCA (dollar-cost averaging) bot splits an entry or exit into a series of smaller orders instead of one lump trade. It can ladder in as price falls to average down, or scale out as it rises, smoothing your average price and taking the timing guesswork out of the trade.

On Coinner you choose price-based or time-based triggers, the order-sizing curve and safety limits. The bot then executes each leg automatically on Lighter, on schedule or as your price targets are hit.
