Slice math. Not vibes.
Pick total size, window, and a volatility level — get a recommended slice count + interval + per-slice cost preview ready to paste into MoonHydra\'s /dca command.
~30-90 min interval matches the volatility cycle.
Window / slices.
/dca buy <mint> 0.50 SOL × 10 slices · every 2h 24m · ends in 24h
Paste this template into MoonHydra and the bot walks you through the remaining fields (mint, optional USD price band, BUY vs SELL).
How the recommendation works
High volatility → fewer, larger slices (4-8) — the token\'s price will move dramatically inside each interval, so a single slice catches more of the range. Medium volatility → 8-15 slices. Low volatility → 10-20 slices for finer averaging. Interval = window / slices. Per-slice warning fires when individual slices drop below ~0.02 SOL (where bot fee + priority fee start eating a meaningful percentage of each fill).
