The main Martingale bot guide explains the full setup flow. This page focuses on the parameters that decide how much risk the bot takes during each DCA cycle.
Contents
Price scale
Price scale defines how far price must drop before the next safety order is placed. Tight settings average down faster; wider settings preserve capital for deeper moves.
Take-profit ratio
Take-profit ratio controls when the accumulated position is sold. Lower targets may close faster, while higher targets require a stronger rebound.
Safety orders
Safety orders are the extra buys after price drops. More safety orders can cover a deeper decline, but they also reserve or use more capital.
Volume scale
Volume scale determines how much larger later orders become. Higher scaling can lower the average entry quickly, but it concentrates capital into later buys.
Pre-launch checklist
- Know the total capital used if every safety order fills.
- Check how far price can fall before the final safety order.
- Use liquid pairs.
- Avoid aggressive settings on volatile altcoins.
