Carbon DeFi Strategy Explainers — Recurring Orders
Markets go up, markets go down. For smart traders, the trick isn’t predicting the next move — it’s preparing for it.
Recurring Orders on Carbon DeFi are built for exactly that — automating buy low, sell high trading cycles without constant oversight. Whether you’re capturing volatility or maintaining a peg, Recurring Orders keep your capital working on autopilot.
What Is a Recurring Order?
A Recurring Order links two strategies — one to buy and the other to sell — into a single loop. Once tokens are traded from one side, Carbon DeFi automatically rotates the newly acquired funds into the opposite order.
The result? A continuous “buy low, sell high” cycle — with just one deposit.
Why Use a Recurring Order on Carbon DeFi
Automated trading cycles — Buy at the bottom of your range and sell at the top, again and again
Single funding required — Pre-set both buy and sell strategies, but only fund one side to get started
Ongoing trades, no redeploying — Once running, your strategy loops automatically — no need to re-fund or manually intervene
Zero trading fees — Strategy makers pay no trading, protocol, or network fees on filled orders
