Custom parameters
⚙️ Custom parameters at step 5/6 is the Standard preset on top of which you change individual values. The same buttons are available after choosing any preset.
Where it is in the bot
Creation wizard → step 5/6 → ⚙️ Custom parameters, or any preset → the screen “🤖 Create DCA Bot — Confirmation”. Each button opens its own screen with a hint, the current value and an input field; after saving, the bot returns you to the confirmation.
How to set it up
| Button / parameter | Range | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| ⚖️ DCA Leverage | 1-20, quick buttons x1 / x2 / x3 / x5 / x10 | Futures only; on spot leverage is x1 and there is no button |
| ⚖️ Margin: CROSS / ⚖️ Margin: ISOLATED | — | Futures only. The bot warns that with CROSS the entire account balance serves as collateral |
| 🎯 Take Profit % | 0.1-50.0 | Target from the average entry price |
| 🛡️ Stop Loss % | 0.0-50.0 | 0 = no stop; the card will show “🛑 SL: not set” |
| 🎯 SL baseline: preset | From first entry / From average price | "From average" is moved after every averaging buy |
| ⚙️ SL trigger: Mark | 📈 By Mark Price (rec.) / ⚡ By Last Price / 📊 By Index Price | Futures only; on spot always Last Price |
| ⏱️ SL Timeout: off | 1-300 s, buttons ❌ No timeout / 30 / 60 / 120; 0 = off | Futures only, see SL Timeout |
| 📊 Number of Orders | 2-20 | Averaging orders |
| 📊 Active entry orders | 1-20 | How many averaging orders to keep on the exchange at once; the others wait in a queue. If you enter more than the number of orders, it is trimmed to that number |
| ⏲️ Cycle Cooldown | 0-86400 s | Pause between cycles |
| 🔁 Profit reinvestment | 0-100 % | Share of the cycle profit added to the next one, see Reinvestment and cooldown |
| 📈 Trailing TP (opt.) / 📉 Trailing SL (opt.) | 0.01-50 % | See Trailing TP and Trailing SL |
| 📉 Trailing SL: preset (strategy) | % below peak · Breakeven after profit · Moving target · Ticks below highest · ATR-based | Works only if Trailing SL % is set |
| 🎯 Set trigger | price | Delayed start by price, the above/below direction is detected automatically |
| ⚡ Start: immediate | Immediate / RSI / below MA / webhook | See Start conditions |
| ⚙️ TP Strategy: Single | Single / multiple in equal parts / with increasing step | 2-10 levels, multiplier 1.1-3.0, see Take-Profit |
The bot asks for fractional values with a dot: 2.5. Once entered, the value is shown right on the button, for example 🎯 Take Profit %: 1.5% or ⚖️ DCA Leverage: x2.
Not changeable with buttons (only by picking a preset): amount multiplier, step between averaging orders, price step multiplier, number of consecutive stops.
What the summary shows
- “⚠️ Estimated liquidation: ~$…” — on futures, for the entered leverage and direction. It is an estimate: the actual price depends on the account balance and other positions.
- “⚠️ Warning: Cross margin without Stop-Loss.” — only with CROSS and SL = 0: liquidation will affect the whole account, including the balances of other bots.
- “⚠️ Max risk: entire cycle amount on heavy dump” — always in the profit calculator.
Limits and allowed values
| What | Spot | Futures |
|---|---|---|
| Short | no | yes |
| Leverage, margin type | no | yes |
| SL trigger type | always Last Price | Mark / Last / Index |
| SL Timeout | no (regular exchange stop) | yes |
| Leverage × number of orders | — | no more than 50 |
Once the bot is created, only the TP strategy and SL Timeout can be changed on a live bot (they apply from the next cycle). TP %, SL %, leverage, amount, cooldown and the number of orders cannot — only a new bot.
Common errors and what the bot says
- “Invalid value. Enter a number from 1 to 20.” — leverage.
- “Invalid value. Enter a number from 0.1 to 50.0 (with a dot).” — TP; for SL — “Invalid value. Enter a number from 0.0 to 50.0 (with a dot).”
- “Invalid value. Enter an integer from 2 to 20.” — number of orders.
- “⚠️ Enter an integer from 1 to 20” — active orders.
- “Invalid value. Enter an integer from 0 to 86400.” — cooldown.
- “⚠️ Enter a number from 0 to 100” — reinvestment.
- “Leverage 10 × 6 orders = 60 > 50 — the risk is too high. Reduce the leverage or the number of orders.” — at confirmation on futures.
- “⚠️ SL Timeout is not available for SPOT bots” — on spot a regular exchange stop is used.
