DCA, stops and exits

DCA

Enable DCA and set step, level count and total cap. Planned levels and exchange orders are distinct on the chart. Fills update average entry; stop movement depends on position rules and already activated protection. Additions are also available for adopted external positions. Confirmed fills update managed size and average entry; take-profit and protection levels are recalculated according to position rules. The initial entry marker stays in place.

Exit execution

A server-managed stop is monitored by the server; triggering uses a marketable IOC order with a price bound. It may fill partially. A calculated stop line does not confirm an exchange stop order.

RSI limit-exit wait

Eligible LIVE positions can use RSI limit exit with a wait from 1 to 60 seconds. Unfilled size proceeds to fast exit after cancellation is confirmed. PAPER does not model the exchange order queue.

The next addition after a fill

For signal-based SPOT and PERPS positions, the next addition is calculated from the updated average entry: below it for LONG and above it for SHORT. For example, an average of 100 and a 5% step gives a LONG addition level of 95. This is a calculation example, not a trading recommendation. If the stop is based on average entry, it is also recalculated according to position rules. An addition beyond the stop or with active protection may be blocked. The chart shows the next calculated level; later levels depend on actual fills. GRID uses its own grid levels.

When funds are insufficient

Before an order, the server checks available funds or collateral including an execution reserve and the Standard or Unified account type. Portfolio Margin is not yet supported. If funds are insufficient, no new addition is placed and the reason is saved in the position state; the server checks again. The notification shows available and required amounts without repeating the same ongoing shortage on every check.

How RSI pullback is measured

For LONG, tracking arms when RSI reaches the configured upper level, then records the maximum. A pullback exit becomes eligible when RSI is at or below that maximum minus the configured points. For SHORT, tracking arms at the lower level, records the minimum, and uses minimum plus pullback as the exit threshold. For example, a minimum of 27.922 and a 4-point pullback give a threshold of 31.922. An activation level of 40 is not the pullback starting point. The configured number of consecutive confirmations is required. RSI is calculated within the current candle using Hyperliquid data; confirmations are data updates, not closed candles. Values may differ from another exchange chart or candle-close RSI. A data continuity break resets the confirmation counter.

Profit protection: enabled or activated

Enabled profit protection waits for the configured favorable price move from average entry. These percentages do not multiply by leverage: a 4% return at 2x corresponds to a 2% price move. Once the threshold is reached, protection sets the profit floor under the position’s own rules. A light icon outline means enabled and waiting, a green glow means activated, and a dim icon means disabled. Check the position’s own rules: later changes to general settings do not change existing positions.
