The limit of averaging down in TRX
Buying lower does reduce your average cost, but it also increases position size and total risk. Average cost is an accounting number — it does not make a losing TRX position safe.
FAQ
How do I average the cost of several TRX buys?
Average cost = total invested ÷ coins held, where coins held is the sum of each amount ÷ price. Two 500 USDT buys at 0.3053 and 0.3731 USDT average about 0.3358 USDT, not the simple midpoint 0.3392 USDT.
How much am I down after scaling into TRX?
Floating P&L = coins held × current price − total invested. At the 0.3392 USDT reference price the two-leg example above shows about 10.1 USDT; below the average cost it turns negative.
