How does Auto-increase work in Libertex?

What is Auto-increase?

How to activate Auto-increase?

To use this feature, simply enable the "Auto-increase" option in the transaction window when placing a new trade, or toggle it on within the details of an existing open trade.

How to modify Auto-increase parameters

The default parameters for Auto-increase are:

  • Trigger Loss: 50%

  • Amount to Add: 50%

If you are using the mobile app, you can customize these parameters:

Important note: At this time, only clients with Gold status or higher are eligible to modify these parameters.

1. Tap the Gear icon next to "Auto-increase".

2. Tap "EDIT" next to the parameter you wish to modify.

3. Move the horizontal slider to choose your desired percentage.


Important details

  • When your trade reaches a loss of 50% or more, the system will automatically reinvest 50% of the initial amount using the free funds in your account. If you have customized the parameters, the system will start and reinvest according to the exact percentages you have set. If there are not enough free funds in your account, the auto-reinvestment process will not be performed.

  • The commission fee charged for automatically increasing the trade size will be equal to the commission set for opening a new trade on this instrument, including the spread. Commissions are charged in accordance with the Instrument Specifications page.

  • Auto-increase of the trade size is performed using the initial multiplier. If the appropriate multiplier coefficient is not available, for example, during the release of important news, then the auto-increase of the trade cannot be performed until the initial multiplier for this instrument becomes available again.

  • From the moment the trade amount is increased, the swap fee is calculated and charged in accordance with the new trade volume.

  • If, as a result of a sharp jump in the asset price, the current price differs from the previous one by several points (gap situation) and the trade reaches the Stop Out level, the Auto-Increase feature will not work.
