Tired of screaming at your screen because you bought the "top" again? Welcome to Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA), the investment strategy for people who finally admit that no one can time the market.
DCA breaks your investment into smaller, regular purchases over time instead of blowing your entire bankroll at once. It's like eating one cookie a day instead of the whole package in one sitting - less regret, better results. By spreading out your buys, you catch the highs AND the lows, giving you a balanced average price that won't keep you up at night.
At DeFihub, we've turned the boring old DCA concept into something that actually gets us excited (and not just because of our logo). Need a helping hand? Our platform does all the heavy lifting automatically, so you can set and forget.
Here's what makes our DCA system better than your ex:
Set your parameters once: Pick your tokens, set your amount, choose how long – done. No need to come back tomorrow, or the next day, or the... you get it.
Gas fees? What gas fees?: Pay gas ONCE for your deposit. That's it. We cover ALL subsequent gas and swap fees. Yes, you read that right, we're basically paying you to use our platform (not really, but it feels that way).
Time is money, honey: No more setting alarms to catch "the best time to buy." Your DCA runs on autopilot, executing trades at regular intervals while you focus on more important things, like deciding which color Lambo you'll buy with your gains.
Consistency is key: Like actually showing up to the gym, consistent investing beats sporadic panic buys and sells every time. We keep you disciplined even when crypto Twitter is losing its mind.
Setting up a DCA on DeFihub is easier than explaining Bitcoin to your grandmother:
Head to the DCA page from our dashboard or just click (we know you're lazy, we got you).
Pick your poison: MetaMask, Trust Wallet, or even the lazy route via Google sign-in. No judgment here, as long as you've got some tokens to play with.
Pick your network: Arbitrum One, BNB Smart Chain, or Polygon (they're like different neighborhoods, each with their own vibe).
Choose what to SELL: Select the token that's burning a hole in your digital pocket.
Choose what to RECEIVE: Pick the token you believe in long-term (or the one your favorite influencer won't stop tweeting about).
Decide how much: Enter your amount or hit MAX if you're feeling spicy.
Set your timeframe: Choose how many days you want to spread your daily purchases over. 14 days, 30 days, or a custom period that suits your investment appetite.
We know you make mistakes when you're excited, so take a second to review.
Hit "Approve all txs" if you're in a hurry or "Approve one tx" if you have trust issues, then smash that "Deposit" button.
We'll execute your purchases every day for the duration you selected, while you pretend you're a financial genius to your friends.
Check the 'POSITIONS' tab anytime to see how your investment is performing. Watch your tokens steadily accumulate regardless of market drama, it's like having a robot that buys the dip, the peak, and everything in between while you focus on more important things, like debating crypto on Twitter.
While DCA has its own dedicated page for pure dollar-cost averaging bliss, it's also a versatile component you can add to your custom investment strategies. Think of it as the reliable partner in your investment portfolio, always performing when and how you need it.
Here's why adding DCA to your strategy is like discovering premium content with no subscription fee:
Mix and match with other products: Combine DCA with Buy and Liquidity products for a well-rounded investment portfolio that hits all the right spots.
Multiple DCA positions: Create a strategy with multiple DCAs using different token pairs and timeframes, like having multiple tabs open but without the guilt.
Diversification made easy: Allocate different percentages of your funds across various DCA setups to spread your risk while keeping that sweet, sweet automation.
Setting up a DCA within your strategy is straightforward, even after a few drinks:
Select the "DCA" product: From your strategy creation panel, choose DCA as one of your investment types.
Set the percentage: Decide how much of your total investment you want to allocate to this specific DCA. Remember, the total allocation across all your investments needs to add up to 100%, just like how you give 100% of your attention to charts (and not your significant other).
Pick your token pair:
Input token: This is what you're willing to part with.
Output token: This is what you're looking to accumulate over time and eventually show off about.
Select the duration in days: How long do you want this automated love affair to last? Choose a timeframe that matches your investment goals and commitment issues.
Remember, with DCA in your strategy, you're not just investing, you're letting your money work for you while you work on your excuses for why you didn't become a crypto millionaire sooner.
