Recurring Buy

Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is an investment strategy allocating a fixed amount into crypto at regular intervals, regardless of price. Over time, this approach reduces the impact of market volatility and avoids the need to “time the market”.

DCA is the investment strategy, and Recurring Buy is the feature available on Independent Reserve that allows you to automate this strategy.

• Reduces timing risk by removing the need to predict market entry points
• Smooths out volatility by averaging purchase prices over time
• Encourages disciplined investing through automatic execution
• No matter how big or small your budget, allowing investors to scale over time

If you don’t have enough funds, we’ll use your remaining available balance. If your fund balance is zero, the order won’t go through. You’ll see it marked as “Triggered but not actioned” under the order history. Top up before the next cycle, and your future scheduled orders will go through as usual.

You can pause or cancel a recurring order whenever you like, soon being able to modify it further.

You will receive an email confirmation each time a recurring order is successfully executed. This will also appear as “Triggered and actioned” under the order history. Order details can also be reviewed in your trade history.
