Safety Orders Calculator

This tool finds the smallest count n of safety orders whose cumulative price deviation from entry meets or exceeds your target drop percent. n = 0 means base order only (0% coverage).

It reuses the same geometric ladder as the DCA/Martingale calculator: increment i = firstDeviation × stepScale^i, trigger = entry × (1 − cumulative deviation).

Price coverage is the cumulative downward deviation from entry after the last safety order fills — the deepest percent drop the ladder is designed to absorb before average entry stops improving.

If even maxOrders cannot reach your target, the tool reports covered = No and shows the best coverage achieved.

Volume scale multiplies each next safety order quote size. Step scale multiplies the deviation increment so gaps between orders can widen deeper in the ladder.

Enter first deviation as a human percent (1 = 1%). Defaults mirror common bot settings but are not tied to any exchange API.

Average entry = total quote invested ÷ total base accumulated across the base order and filled safety orders at their trigger prices.

Worst-case price is the deepest trigger in the ladder — useful for stress-testing drawdown against your target drop.

The math follows a standard geometric safety-order convention used in many DCA bots, including Veles-style planners. Live bot behavior adds exchange min notional, step ticks, and partial fills.

Use the output to estimate capital and order count before configuring a bot.
