What do you want to do?
Martingale Bot
Use Martingale when you want each subsequent safety entry to be larger than the previous one. The larger sizes move the average entry closer to current price faster, so a smaller price recovery is enough to reach take-profit. The trade-off is that total exposure grows rapidly as levels fill. It is poorly suited for assets in a sustained downtrend because every safety level fills without recovery, consuming all margin.
What you are trying to do
BTC opens a base buy at $100,000. Price falls to $99,000, so the bot places a larger safety buy. Price keeps falling to $97,600, and the bot places an even larger one. Now the average entry is lower and closer to current price. If BTC recovers enough to reach the configured take-profit condition, the bot attempts to close the position. BTC may keep falling instead, increasing exposure as more levels fill and potentially causing liquidation. Liquidity, slippage, fees and funding affect the final net result.
Step-by-step: creating a Martingale bot
Select exchange, name and pair
Same as other bots. Pick the connection, confirm your balance, name the bot and search for BTC. Check the market data panel for current price, minimum notional and max leverage.
Set leverage and direction
Martingale with high leverage amplifies both returns and liquidation risk. For a first test use 2× or 3× at most. Choose Long if you expect BTC to eventually recover.
Set cooldown after TP
Cooldown (minutes) — after a full take-profit cycle closes, the bot waits this many minutes before opening a new base order. Example: 60 minutes gives the market time to settle before re-entering.
Set total investment (USDC margin)
This is the total margin distributed across the base order and all safety orders. The bot automatically calculates the base order size from this total using the volume scale multiplier. Example: $150 total margin with 6 safety orders and 2× volume scale.
The level preview panel on the right shows you exactly how the $150 gets split across each level before you submit. Check it — if any level shows a warning (⚠ below min notional), increase total investment or reduce levels.
Configure the safety order structure
Number of limit buys — how many safety entry levels the bot will place below the base entry. Example: 6 safety orders means up to 7 entries total (base + 6). More levels require more capital.
Initial separation % between levels — the percentage drop from the base entry price where the first safety order is placed. Example: 1.0% means if BTC enters at $100,000, the first safety is at $99,000.
Volume scale (size multiplier) — how much larger each safety order is relative to the previous one. Example: 2.0 means each safety is 2× bigger than the one before it. A base of $5 margin → safety 1 = $10 → safety 2 = $20 → safety 3 = $40.
Step scale (distance multiplier) — how much wider the gap between each successive safety level becomes. Example: 1.2 means each gap is 20% wider than the previous. First gap = 1%, second = 1.2%, third = 1.44%, etc. This spreads levels farther apart as price falls further.
Set Take Profit %
This is the percentage price movement above the average entry at which the bot closes the entire position. Example: 1.5% — if after filling 3 levels the average entry is $98,500, the TP fires when BTC reaches $99,977.50. This is a raw price movement, not leverage-adjusted PnL.
Review the level preview panel
Before clicking Create, check the Level preview table on the right. It shows every level's estimated entry price, the margin used, the position notional (margin × leverage), and whether each level meets the market's minimum notional. Any row with ⚠ means that level will be rejected by the exchange. Fix it by increasing total investment, increasing leverage, or reducing the number of levels.
With 6 safety orders, a volume scale of 2×, and $150 total margin at 3× leverage: the position notional at all levels filled is roughly $1,350. If that is uncomfortable, reduce safety order count, volume scale, or leverage before creating the bot. The level preview panel does this math for you.
