How Tiksan works

Full end-to-end workflow

1. 01

   DCA cycle triggers

   The scheduler fires each morning on HOSE trading days (9:00 AM per the HOSE calendar). It reads your saved configuration — budget, stock lists, frequency — and creates an immutable snapshot for this cycle.

2. 02

   Capital allocation

   The allocator calculates how much capital goes to each ticker based on your configured weights. Any carry-over from the previous cycle (unmatched amounts) is added to the corresponding ticker's allocation before calculations run.

3. 03

   Eligibility filtering

   Each ticker's current price is checked against its stop price. If price ≥ stop price, the ticker is skipped and its capital is redistributed to the remaining eligible tickers in the same list.

4. 04

   Lot splitting & order placement

   Buy quantity = floor(allocation / market price). If quantity ≤ 100 shares, one order is placed. If > 100, the system splits into a round lot (multiple of 100) and an odd lot (remainder), placing both simultaneously at the same price.

5. 05

   End-of-day reconciliation

   At 3:30 PM, every open order is checked: filled orders update holdings in the database; unfilled orders are cancelled and their amounts recorded as carry-over for the next cycle.

6. 06

   Auto take-profit (optional)

   Each morning, holdings flagged for take-profit are checked. If the current price meets the target, a sell order is placed at fair price and retried daily until filled or cancelled. This executes once permanently per user–ticker pair.
