DCA Orders

What Is DCA?

Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) lets you split a buy or sell into multiple smaller orders executed at regular intervals. This helps reduce the impact of short-term price volatility by spreading your entry or exit over time.

A 1% swap fee applies to each individual DCA execution (not to the total DCA amount).


DCA Buy

  1. Open the trading panel for a token (paste CA or search)

  2. Select the DCA tab

  3. Enter the total SOL amount you want to spend

  4. Set the interval — how often each order executes. Enter a number followed by a time suffix:

    • s for seconds (e.g., 45s)

    • m for minutes (e.g., 1m, 5m)

    • h for hours (e.g., 3h)

    • d for days (e.g., 1d)

  5. Set the number of swaps — how many individual buy orders to split into (minimum 1, maximum 255)

  6. Confirm the DCA order

The total SOL is divided equally across the number of swaps. For example, 1 SOL over 10 swaps means 0.1 SOL per execution.


DCA Sell

  1. Open the trading panel for a token you hold

  2. Select the DCA tab, then choose the Sell direction

  3. Enter the token amount or percentage to sell

  4. Set the interval and number of swaps (same options as DCA buy)

  5. Confirm the DCA order


Slippage and Fees


Insufficient Balance Behavior

Warning: If your SOL balance runs out during a DCA buy schedule, the remaining orders are automatically cancelled. There is no pause or retry — you will receive a notification and will need to create a new DCA order after topping up your balance.

This also applies to DCA sells — if you no longer hold enough tokens (for example, if you sold some manually), the remaining sell DCA orders are cancelled.


Managing DCA Orders

  • From the home screen, navigate to DCA Orders to view all active DCA schedules

  • Each entry shows the token, progress (e.g., 3/10 swaps completed), interval, and remaining amount

  • You can cancel any individual DCA order or cancel all at once

  • Completed DCA orders disappear from the active list automatically
