ZenDCA tracks detailed performance data for every repeat buy schedule and smash buy you create. Here's how to understand the numbers and what they mean for your investment.
Repeat buy schedule performance
When you open the details of any repeat buy schedule, you'll see a breakdown of every automated order that has been executed. Key metrics include:
- Total invested — The total fiat amount spent across all completed orders in that schedule.
- Current value — The current market value of the crypto purchased through the schedule.
- Fees paid — The total trading fees charged by the exchange for your orders.
- Fees saved — The estimated amount you saved by using ZenDCA's low-fee limit orders compared to the exchange's standard mobile app pricing.
Each individual order within a schedule shows the date it ran, the amount purchased, the price at the time and the status (completed, failed, etc.).
Smash buy performance
Smash buys track performance on a per-purchase basis. In the Recent Smash Buys table, each completed buy shows:
- Purchase price — The price at which your order was filled.
- Gain/Loss — The difference between the current market value and what you paid.
- ROI — Your return on investment as a percentage.
- Fee savings — How much you saved compared to standard exchange fees.

How fee savings are calculated
ZenDCA places limit orders (or market orders on Binance.US) on your behalf, which carry significantly lower fees than buying through an exchange's mobile app or instant buy feature. The fee savings shown represent the difference between what you would have paid using the exchange's standard consumer pricing and what you actually paid through ZenDCA.
