About this strategy

A customizable template that moves a cash allocation into one broad ETF gradually, buying tranches on dip days, escalating on consecutive dips, with a time backstop so cash never waits forever.

How it works

  1. Agent triggers

    The run starts at 9:45 AM and 3:45 PM each trading day, checking for dip conditions. It also activates if no purchases occur for a specified backstop period.

  2. Computes its signals

    It monitors the selected ETF's daily closes, investing on days it drops by your chosen threshold. Consecutive down days increase investments, allowing for faster buying on declines.

  3. Sets the target portfolio

    The target portfolio consists of a single broad ETF, with investment amounts determined by the dip conditions and escalation settings. Up to 15% can be invested in a single day, depending on consecutive dips.

  4. Executes orders

    Your account trades toward that target, sells before buys, inside the platform's risk rails: stop-loss and daily loss limits you control.
