💡 Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA):

Essence:

You buy an asset regularly for a fixed amount, without guessing where the "bottom" is.

🔐 Add stop-losses to this – and you get a powerful protection strategy:

❗What is a stop-loss?

It is an automatic order to sell an asset if its price falls below a set level. It works like "insurance".

✅ Combo strategy: Averaging + Stop-loss

📅 Regularly buy the asset (once a week/month).

📉 Lower the average price on declines – wisely.

🛑 Set stop-losses on each purchase or for the entire position:

🔹 It can be a fixed % (for example, -15%)

🔹 Or based on important support levels 🔍

💡 Upon hitting the stop – realize the loss, but do not lose control.

🔁 If desired – enter again, at a new price, with a new volume.

🧠 Principle:

Average – but with protection. A stop-loss prevents losses from getting out of control.

⚠️ Important to remember:

❌ Do not set the stop too close – it may get "taken out".

✅ Better less often – but with more confidence.

💰 Do not risk the entire amount at once – partial trading + risk control.
