DCA orders not triggering when basing the scaling on ATR

Bug Reports
1

I’m not getting any DCA orders (other than the initial deal) on any bots when basing the scaling on ATR with a paper account on Coinbase, I haven’t tested my live account with these specific settings yet to compare to the paper account. I’m not sure if this is a bug or a conflicting setting where I’m doing something wrong though. Here’s an example bot: Gainium app

Hello! Thank you for reporting this issue. We have received your bug report regarding DCA orders not triggering with ATR-based scaling on your paper account. We will investigate this promptly and provide an update shortly. We appreciate you providing the bot URL so we can examine the specific settings.

I changed the ATR “volume based on” from “required change” to “scaled” and that fixed it for me. Apparently conditions were just never happening for DCA orders otherwise.

You cleared paper account, so Its hard to check the settings now.
I have checked your latest settings and change from Scaled to Required change and DCA order is placed

But regarding your bot, I saw in logs that DCA order was placed, immediately after base filled. Other DCA are smart orders.

Here’s another example, but this one is set to scaled instead of required change with base scaling on ATR. From the charts, it looks like both ZORA and MAGIC should have opened another order for the first DCA after the base order: Gainium app

Unless the example lines on the chart don’t match the actual ATR calculation, and it just hasn’t hit it yet?

Oh you mean orders not filled. Will check.

Great news! The issue you reported with DCA orders in your paper account has been resolved and the fix has been deployed. You should no longer experience this problem.
