Volatility is the name of the game in the crypto trading scene, and the profit potential can be immense if done correctly. Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is widely known as a way for traders to accumulate wealth, but it can be labor-intensive, due to market monitoring and manual investment. Bybit has identified this gap and has introduced Auto-Invest, a game-changing financial tool to tap into as-yet unutilized investment potential.

Bybit Auto-Invest allows you to automate your investments. It takes the guesswork out of buying and selling, and helps you take advantage of market volatility — even while you sleep. Think of it as having a personal assistant who never takes a day off, and always looks for profitable trading opportunities.

In the following sections, you'll learn more about Bybit Auto-Invest, how it works, its benefits and how to set it up. 

If you're ready to step up your investing game, keep reading. This guide is for you.

Key Takeaways:

  • Bybit Auto-Invest is a hassle-free investment tool to help users automate by investing small amounts of funds consistently over a specific period of time, based on their investment subscription plan.

  • This investment tool is suitable for beginners, and even advanced investors. DCA averages the investment price of an asset through predetermined parameters, based on the user’s subscription.

  • Auto-Invest benefits traders and investors seeking sustainable growth for their crypto holdings over the long term.

What Is Bybit Auto-Invest?

Auto-Invest is a feature on Bybit that helps traders and investors automate crypto purchases, using the concept of dollar-cost averaging, in which users commit to investing smaller amounts of money into crypto investments over a specific period of time, rather than a lump-sum investment, to average out their investment risks. 

Currently, Bybit Auto-Invest only supports Fiat Balance and Crypto Available Balance as payment methods. To process your purchase, you first need to deposit funds into your Bybit Funding Account on our Fiat Deposit page.

We highly recommend that you have sufficient fiat and crypto balances ready before scheduled purchases, in order to take full advantage of your Auto-Invest plan. Also, note that the plan will be terminated because of insufficient funds in your Funding Account for three (3) scheduled purchases in a row.

Bybit Auto-Invest and Bybit DCA Bot share similarities, but they aren’t the same. Here are some of their differences: Users can rely on the Auto-Invest function to automate their recurring buy of a crypto or fiat asset, based on their preferences. They can use this feature to buy or invest in their preferred assets as a way to diversify their risk as a hedge against market volatility.

Bybit DCA Bot, on the other hand, focuses on helping users accumulate wealth in crypto investment in the Spot market through customized parameters that focus on investment amount (in a single crypto), investment frequency and the maximum investment amount. 

Both of these features are associated with trading fees. Bybit Auto-Invest is free to activate, but there’s a transaction fee after the investment plan is triggered, as you set your monthly automatic investment. Finally, Bybit DCA Bot and Auto-Invest are both subject to a trading fee per transaction, based on the Spot Market.

How to Use Bybit Auto-Invest

By subscribing to an Auto-Invest plan, an automatic Buy Order will be processed according to your predetermined parameters.

For example: 

Supposing Trader A has set their Auto-Invest plan with the following parameters:

  • Fiat Spend: $1,000 USD

  • Crypto Received: BTC

  • Investment Frequency: Bi-Weekly

Trader A has set an Auto-Invest plan to purchase BTC every two (2) weeks with $1,000. This means that every two weeks, Bybit will automatically use $1,000 from the trader's Fiat Balance to purchase BTC at the current market price.

The amount of BTC that Trader A receives for each bi-weekly purchase will depend upon the prevailing market price of BTC at that time. If BTC’s price is high, they’ll receive fewer BTC, and if the price is low, they’ll receive more. However, since the purchases occur over a longer time period, the goal is to achieve a lower average cost per unit by using the DCA concept.

Using Bybit's Auto-Invest feature, Trader A can effortlessly accumulate BTC over time without worrying about timing the market or constantly monitoring price movements.

Note: There will be no charges for creating an Auto-Invest plan. Once the plan is activated, our system will automatically process the transactions based on your preset parameters. Rest assured that any trading fees incurred during a transaction will be calculated based on the actual order information. 

Advantages of Using Bybit Auto-Invest

There are several advantages to using the Auto-Invest function. Primarily, it eradicates the hassle of monitoring the choppy market for your investments. 

Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Investment

In order to diversify risk, the Auto-Invest function leverages the concept of DCA to help you invest your money in smaller increments at regular scheduled intervals. DCA is a great way for traders and investors to reduce the impact of market volatility, and to smooth out the average price of their investment. 

Hassle-Free Investment Automation 

Auto-Invest helps you automate purchases without having to account for market conditions, market movement and asset prices.

By averaging out purchase prices, DCA reduces the impact of inefficient decisions. For example, you may purchase an asset when its price is skyrocketing. Later, when it pulls back, you might decide to buy more cryptocurrency at a lower price during the market sell-off period, when other market participants are selling a large volume of assets within a short time. Buying when the market is down creates the possibility of smoothing the average price and deriving profit from the investment, which will hopefully grow in value in time.
