Contrary to popular belief, you can’t perfectly time the bottom. From buying high and selling low to letting fake news causing us to panic sell, emotions often get the better of us  Don’t take our word for it; even seasoned investors like Peter Lynch and Warren Buffett refrain from timing the market. Instead, they believe in the 

 (DCA) strategy. Curious about how you can include this tried-and-true investment strategy into your arsenal? Read on as we cover how you can immediately begin your DCA with Bybit’s all-new DCA trading bots.

Dollar cost averaging is an investment strategy that ensures investors invest regularly, regardless of the market sentiment. By buying at regular intervals, investors can mitigate the risk of timing of the market and continue to build their positions that they’re willing to invest in for long periods of time.

Although it might seem counterintuitive, investors who have a more hands-off approach tend to profit in the long run with the DCA strategy. By eliminating the need to time each buy and dedicating a constant sum of money to long-term holds, investors can effectively avoid common pitfalls like not investing consistently and overleveraging when lump sum investing. These reasons combined with the mistakes mentioned above makes DCA an extremely attractive action plan for both new and seasoned investors.

DCA will be perfect for you if you fit these profiles:

You are someone who wishes to build a long-term crypto portfolio and has a multi-year investing time horizon. By utilizing DCA, you can effectively lower your average cost over a prolonged period of time with regular buys. This gradually builds up your position to your desired exposure level while preventing the risk of over-leveraging.

You are someone who prefers investing in assets with lower volatility. While it’s a fact that cryptocurrency prices tend to fluctuate wildly, this doesn’t mean investors with a low-risk tolerance should stay out of the crypto markets entirely. If you’re someone who’s bullish for the future of crypto, you can systematically buy in with the DCA strategy. This ultimately minimizes market timing risks and makes the idea of investing in crypto less daunting to investors with low-risk tolerance.

You are someone who’s new to the crypto market and are looking for ways to invest. For newcomers, investing can certainly seem intimidating as the question of what to invest in and how to invest regularly pop up. Fortunately, DCA provides the perfect opportunity for beginner investors to enter the market as it skips aspects like Technical Analysis. Rather, it allows you to dive straight into investing by allocating a portion of your funds to buying in without trying to time the market.

Find yourself relating to either of these personas and want to learn more about DCA? Scroll on as we reveal how our DCA trading bots can cater to your personal investing needs and targets.

That said, you might be wondering why you should even consider using DCA trading bots if it’s so easy to start DCA yourself. While investors should allocate a fixed amount of funds for investing consistently, what often ends up happening is that factors like carelessness and fear come into play. For instance, you might forget to make your intended buy because of the bustle of life’s responsibilities or be fearful of purchasing your crypto because of a potential catalyst.

That’s where Bybit’s DCA trading bots comes in handy. If you’re even remotely considering the DCA strategy, you’ll be glad to know that our DCA trading bots offer the following:

After configuring Bybit’s trading bots with your investment amount per buy and overall time horizon, you’re good to go as the bots will DCA into as many as five different coins or tokens. By consistently making buy orders according to the rules set by you, you’ll never need to fret about irregular buys again.

Setting up Bybit’s DCA trading bots is simple. Ready to get started? Here’s how you can set up your personal DCA trading bot on your PC:

First, you’ll have to fund your bot. Start by selecting either USDT or USDC. Do note that you’ll be unable to create a mixed portfolio of stablecoin pairs so make sure you check that your preferred trading pairs are supported.

Now it’s time to build your DCA portfolio. From BTC to ETH, you can select up to five different cryptocurrencies to DCA into. Once selected, input the corresponding amount of stablecoins that you’ll want to use to purchase with each DCA buy order.

Once that’s settled, you’ll now need to determine how often your DCA trading bot makes a buy order. From every ten minutes to once every four weeks, there are all sorts of time intervals to help you beat the volatility that comes from usually timing your buys.

As an optional parameter for more cautious investors, this field ensures that there’s a limit to the total amount of funds you commit to this DCA portfolio.

Once you’ve confirmed all these parameters, click on Create Now and Confirm to finish creating your DCA bot.
