Signal-based DCA

DCA

Cycles open only when an external signal arrives.

  1. 1
    Deploy
    The bot starts idle — no until the first signal.
  2. 2
    Send a signal
    POST /dca-bot/webhook/<> with JSON {"token":"<webhook token>"} — from a TradingView alert, an indicator alert or any system.
  3. 3
    Cycle
    A valid signal opens one cycle (on a bot, the first idle side). It runs exactly like a normal cycle.
  4. 4
    Wait
    After the cycle closes, the bot waits for the next signal.
!
Caution:Anyone with the token can entries. Keep it secret; regenerate it if it leaks.
