Open Order table will contain three orders in pending state from the signal template we created above.
Now we have everything configured. wait for CBS scanner to send some signals. You can check live status of incoming signals from channel Log. Link given in Triggers table.
DCA Buy (OPTIONAL)
One sure shot way of increasing chances of winning and reaching profit target at a faster time is using DCA to buy at different levels instead of putting all money at once.
For binance recommended DCA targets are 0%, -5%, -10%. You can try out other variations by testing trigger based orders using demo trades.
In above pic 1st buy target will be replaced with buy target price from signal if auto detect buy target is enabled. Remaining buy targets will be relative to the price at the time trade was opened.
For more detailed info about how DCA bots work have a look at this article – https://www.Growlonix.com/support/article/dca-buy-sell-bots-for-long-and-short-positions-on-top-crypto-exchanges
Recommended settings for CBS:
Stop buy with 3 targets : -0.1%, -5%, -10%, DCA mode enabled
take profit: Auto detect profit target, Trailing exit with 0.1% offset
Stop loss: -15%
Filters: Signal Type=Day trades, Limit Position per market=1, Minimum 24hour volume = 6 BTC or equivalent volume of other base currencies.
Note: Above settings for signal configuration are only a recommendation. Feel free to tweak it to suit your needs. Any profit/loss which happens as a result of automated trading based on signals is subject to market risk and Growlonix doesn’t take any responsibility of the incurred losses if any.
