Most traders typically set fixed entry prices. For example:
"Buy 10 TSLA at $1000."
While simple, this approach doesn’t adapt to changing market conditions.
With Capitalise.ai, you can go a step further by setting a dynamic limit price - one that adjusts automatically based on parameters you define, such as technical indicators, bar values, or even percentages.
How It Works
When your strategy includes a dynamic limit, the platform will send a limit order to your broker at the time of the trigger. The limit price is based on the value of your chosen parameter at that exact moment.
How to Add It
Just add "at" or "at LMT of" after your strategy action.
Example:
This strategy places a limit order 5% below the close of the previous 15-minute bar for BTC/USD PERP FUTURE. Once triggered, the strategy sends the limit order and waits for execution by the broker.
What You'll See in the Logs
You’ll notice:
The "WAITING FOR EXECUTION" status means the limit order has been sent and is pending at your broker.
The log will specify the order size and the limit price.
The strategy will pause and won’t proceed to the next steps (e.g., looking for an exit) until this order is executed.
Note: Ignore the example values—they’re for illustration only.
Key Notes
Dynamic entries are available for entry strategies only. Exit strategies do not support limit orders.
You can reference bar prices, technical indicators (like EMAs), and even time.
Use “at” to define the dynamic limit price:
In long trades, it means “equal to or below” (
<=)In short trades, it means “equal to or above” (
>=)
Each entry strategy can include only one dynamic entry condition.
Bars are calculated after they close - so the strategy uses the most recent closed bar for its values.
Even if you don’t specify the word “limit,” using “at” implies a limit order will be sent.
Examples
EMA-based Entry with Bar Reference
You can set a condition such as an EMA crossover, and define the entry price based on the high of the previous 1-minute bar:
Distance from Indicator
You can also define a price based on a percentage offset from any indicator:
