Not sure if this helps, it is for scaling in by month:
Example 2: dollar&#8722;cost averaging
(simplified formula because AB treats first sigScaleIn as buy anyway)
FixedDollarAmount = 500;
MonthBegin = Month() != Ref( Month(), &#8722;1 );
FirstPurchase = Cum( MonthBegin ) == 1;
Buy = IIf( MonthBegin, sigScaleIn, 0 ); // each month increase position
Sell = 0; // we do not sell
PositionSize = FixedDollarAmount;
