Frequently Asked Questions

What is DCA (Dollar-Cost Averaging)?

DCA is a strategy where you split a large position into multiple smaller entries at different price levels. This reduces timing risk — if price continues to fall after your first entry, subsequent entries at lower prices improve your average cost.

How is the average entry price calculated?

Average entry = total notional / total size = Σ(price × size) / Σ(size). This is a size-weighted average, so larger entries at lower prices pull the average down more than smaller entries.

What does % of total mean in the levels table?

% of total shows what share of your total position size is allocated at each price level. It helps you see how concentrated your DCA plan is at any given level.

Why is breakeven above average entry for longs?

Breakeven is higher than average entry because it includes opening and closing fees. You need price to exceed the average entry by enough to cover both the open fee and the close fee before the trade becomes profitable.
