- Wide Selection: You can choose from a wide variety of assets and set the target date and price to your liking;

When should I use Dual Investment?
Whether youâre an advanced trader or simply a HODLer that wants to earn some extra rewards, there are many different reasons why you may decide to use Dual Investment. Some of the most common scenarios include:
- Take profit: Sell your crypto holding at a Target Price to realize some of your gains while benefiting from additional rewards;
- Buy the dips: Buy crypto at a Target Price when the market is down, and enjoy additional rewards;
- Grow more crypto: You have crypto and want to earn additional returns while holding onto them;
- Grow more stablecoin: You have stablecoins and want to earn additional returns while holding onto them.
How do âBuy Lowâ and âSell Highâ products work?
There are two types of Dual Investment products: âBuy Lowâ and âSell Highâ.
Buy Low products give you a chance to buy your desired crypto (such as BTC) at a lower price in the future with stablecoins (such as USDT).
- Target Reached: On the Settlement Date, if the Market Price is at or below the Target Price, the target currency (BTC) will be bought
- Target Not Reached: On the Settlement Date, if the Market Price is above the Target Price, then you will keep your stablecoins
In both scenarios, you will first earn rewards in stablecoins. Once the Target Price is reached, your subscription amount and the rewards earned will be used to buy BTC.
Sell High products give you a chance to sell your existing crypto (such as BNB) at a higher price in the future (for USDT).
- Target Reached: On the Settlement Date, if the Market Price is at or above the Target Price, your BNB will be sold for USDT
- Target Not Reached: On the Settlement Date, if the Market Price is below the Target Price, then you will keep your BNB
In both scenarios, you will first earn rewards in your existing currency (BNB). Once the Target Price is reached, your subscription amount and the rewards earned will be sold for USDT.

What is Auto-Compound?
Auto-Compound is a new feature that will automatically re-subscribe your Dual Investment plan on the Settlement Date.
Upon enabling the feature, the system will assist you to re-subscribe a new position, with a Settlement Date occurring on the next available Settlement Date from the current date.
The Settlement Date for BTC and ETH occurs every Tuesday and Friday. The Settlement Date for all other digital assets is on every Friday.
As long as the Auto-Compound feature is enabled, your Dual Investment plan will be automatically re-subscribed to the next available Settlement Date on the Settlement Date. You can enable/disable the Auto-Compound plan 30 minutes before the Settlement Date.
To enable the Auto-Compound feature, toggle on the button next to [Auto-Compound] when setting up your plan. Then choose either the basic plan or the advanced plan.
If you already have an existing Dual Investment position and wish to enable/disable the Auto-Compound feature, you can do so via the Earn Wallet.
How does Auto-Compound work?
You can select between 2 types of Auto-Compound plans.
1. Basic Plan
- If the Target Price is reached, Auto-Compound will stop. The system will close the position and distribute the returns.
- If the Target Price is not reached, Auto-Compound will continue. The system will automatically subscribe to a new position with settlement occurring on the next available Settlement Date until the Target Price is reached.
2. Advanced Plan
- If the Target Price is reached, the system will automatically subscribe to a new position with settlement occurring on the next available Settlement Date in the opposite direction. For example, you subscribed to a Sell High product and the Target Price is reached. Auto-Compound will open a new Buy Low position for you.
- If the Target Price is not reached, the system will automatically subscribe to a new position with settlement occurring on the next available Settlement Date in the same direction. For example, you subscribed to a Sell High product and the Target Price is not reached. Auto-Compound will open a new Sell High position for you.
Please note: We will auto-compound based on the Market Price at your settlement time and choose a new Target Price based on the current Market Price within the instruments that are available.
Example 1:
If youâre using Auto-Compound and the Buy Low Target Price is not reached, the system will set a new Target Price at 10% away from the current Market Price. Suppose the current Market Price is $20,000 for BTC, the new Target Price will be 10% lower at $18,000.
Example 2:
Thereâre scenarios where the system cannot find an instrument with a new Target Price shown on the subscription page. If a suitable Target Price cannot be found, there will be floating adjustments to complete Auto-Compound. E.g., The BTC Market Price is $34,000 and there are no instruments at $30,600, but only at $33,000. In that case, the system will allocate $33,000 within a close enough APY range.
