TWAP

TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) is a strategy used to break a large order into smaller trades that execute at regular intervals.

This reduces market impact and helps avoid price distortion, especially when dealing with low-liquidity assets or volatile conditions.
It’s also commonly used for recurring strategies such as dollar-cost averaging (DCA), where assets are accumulated consistently over time.

Orvex supports decentralized TWAP execution through dTWAP, a protocol provided by the Orbs Network. dTWAP brings automated, time-based execution to DeFi, enabling traders to spread orders across multiple intervals without manual monitoring.

This helps reduce slippage, minimise price disruption, and make large trades more efficient on-chain.
