What is Altrady HODL Bot?

Altrady HODL Bot automates recurring crypto purchases on a schedule you configure. Choose the spot market, investment amount and buy schedule, and the bot makes the scheduled purchases automatically.

How does HODL Bot work?

Choose what you want to accumulate, set a total budget or amount per buy, configure the number and frequency of purchases, and start the bot. HODL Bot then makes purchases according to that schedule.

How often can HODL Bot buy?

HODL Bot supports scheduled purchases including daily, weekly, bi-weekly and monthly frequencies. The available schedule settings let you configure when those purchases should occur.

Can HODL Bot make the first purchase immediately?

Yes. When configuring the buy schedule, you can choose to make the first purchase immediately instead of waiting for the first scheduled time.

Does HODL Bot sell my crypto?

No. HODL Bot is designed to accumulate and does not automatically sell the assets it purchases. It does not use take profit or stop loss. If you want automated position entries and exits, Altrady DCA Bot is designed for that workflow.

What is the difference between HODL Bot and DCA Bot?

HODL Bot makes recurring purchases on a schedule and is designed for accumulation. DCA Bot is designed for active position automation using entry and safety-order logic together with position-management features such as exits.

Does HODL Bot support futures?

No. HODL Bot is designed for supported spot markets. It does not use futures, leverage or short positions.

Does HODL Bot keep running when Altrady is closed?

Yes. Once the bot is active, its buy schedule runs on Altrady's servers, so scheduled purchases can continue according to the configured schedule while the application is closed.

What can I track in HODL Bot?

HODL Bot provides information about your accumulation such as invested amount, accumulated amount, average entry price, completed buys, next buy and unrealized PnL. Its analytics also help you review how your scheduled accumulation has performed.

Does Altrady hold my funds when I use HODL Bot?

No. Altrady connects to supported third-party exchanges through API keys. Your funds remain in your exchange accounts, and Altrady does not require withdrawal permissions.

Accumulation only

Built to Accumulate — Not to Sell

If you want automated entries and exits around an active position, Altrady DCA Bot is designed for that workflow.

Explore DCA Bot

This bot never sells: HODL bots only accumulate — no take profit, no stop loss. If you want automated exits, use the DCA Bot instead.

Your Buy Schedule Keeps Running

Once your HODL Bot is active, scheduled purchases run automatically on Altrady's servers according to your configured schedule — even when the Altrady app is closed.

You can pause or edit the schedule from the bot at any time. Each buy uses the quote currency in your exchange account, so keep enough balance available for the plan.

Bot is ready: Your HODL bot is ready and your buy schedule is set. Buy schedule active: Your buys run automatically on Altrady's servers, even when the app is closed.
