Averaging order settings

In a LONG positions, averaging is activated by a buy ↑ signal., for example:

{
  "name": "Hook 196",
  "secret": "2ehiexig0r5",
  "side": "buy",
  "symbol": "{{ticker}}"
}

In a SHORT positions, averaging is activated by a sell↓ signal, for example:

{
  "name": "Hook 196",
  "secret": "2ehiexig0r5",
  "side": "sell",
  "symbol": "{{ticker}}"
}

1. Enabled/ Disabled

3. Real / virtual order

A real order is placed on the exchange.

A virtual order is created in terminal and only sent to the exchange when activation conditions are met.

4. Order Amount / Volume

• Amount Specify the token quantity (contracts) for the created order in the right-hand field.

  For example, if you enter 100 for XRPUSDT, an order for 100 XRP will be placed.

• Volume Order quantity (volume) is specified. For example, entering 0.01 for LTCBTC pair will place an order with a volume of 0.01 BTC.

• Volume, USD Order quantity (volume) is specified in dollars. For example, if 100 is specified for the LTCBTC pair, an order with a volume equivalent to $100 will be created.

• Full Balance, % Orders are created based on a percentage of the total balance.(wallet balance + position volume + position PnL). For example, with 1000 USDT in the wallet, 2000 USDT in positions, a PnL of 100 USDT, and a specified 10% balance, the order will be created for (1000 + 2000 + 100) x 10 / 100 = 310 USDT.

The full balance includes all tokens in your account. For instance, if your wallet holds 100 BUSD and 100 USDT, the total balance would be 200.

• Full Balance% х Leverage Just like in the previous example, but the obtained amount is multiplied by the leverage. From the example above, with a leverage of 5x the order amount would be 1550 USDT.

• Free Balance, % Orders are created based on a percentage of the available balance in the specified market. For example, with 500 USDT in your wallet, 100 USDT in positions, and a 10% balance specification, the order will be created for an amount of (500 - 100) x 10 / 100 = 40 USDT.

• Free Balance х Leverage, % Just like in the previous example, but the obtained amount is multiplied by the leverage. For example, using the data from the previous item and a 7x leverage, the order amount will be 40*7=280 USDT.

• Strategy amount When this option is selected, the signal message will contain the placeholder {{strategy.order.contracts}}, and a checkbox on the left will be checked.

• Position volume, % Averaging quantity (volume) is based on a percentage of the current position. If you specify 100, it will average the same amount currently open.

• Position amount, % Averaging token quantity (contracts) is based on a percentage of the current position. For instance, specifying 100 will average the same number of coins currently open.
