Risk-Parity DCA Ladder

Conservative, regime-aware DCA accumulation. Layers buys on RSI dips below 35, but only when (a) the macro trend is intact (price > EMA50) AND (b) volatility is high enough to mean-revert (Bollinger width > 2.5%). Strict capital cap and trailing TP for compounding.

The rules

Buy when RSI (14) is below 35 AND price is above the 50 EMA AND Bollinger Band width is above 2.5%.

  • DCA: first buy 4% of the balance, then 3 safety orders every 2% lower
  • Trailing take profit: arms at +6%, sells after a 1% pullback from the high
  • Stop loss at −4%

Safety limits: max 2 trades a day · max 15% of the balance in a trade · pauses for the day after a 2% daily loss · halts after a 8% drawdown.

Weekly backtest scorecard

This strategy is backtested every week on real exchange prices for the most-traded coins (at least BTC and ETH) on 1h, 4h and 1d candles, across two separate 6-month periods and two fee levels. Logged-in users can also test it on any coin. Every result is shown, including losses, next to what simply holding would have done.
