To add funds to an existing stock LP in DeGate Turbo Range, open the position and choose `Increase Investment`. Review the amounts, any auto-swap, and the network fee before confirming. Save the completed record so you can subtract the new deposit when calculating profit.

New capital uses the position's existing fee tier and price range. In the current version, changing either setting requires closing the position and opening another one.

## Step 1: Check the existing position before adding more

Open the position details and confirm the token, issuer, network, fee tier, and bounds. Two positions linked to the same company can still have different settings.

Read the current asset mix and range status. The current price within the existing range determines how much stock token and USDC the new deposit needs. Near a boundary, that mix may differ from the one you received at opening.

If the position is Out of Range, adding capital does not move the bounds to the current price. Check the preview and decide whether keeping that range still fits your plan. [What to Do When a Position Goes Out of Range](https://degate.com/guides/stocks/liquidity/what-to-do-when-a-stock-lp-position-goes-out-of-range/) explains the alternatives.

Before adding more, check what the existing position has earned or lost. Start with `Active capital`, add unclaimed fees and any fees claimed earlier, then subtract your deposits and costs. If you start with `My position`, check which fees that total already includes and add only those missing from it. To compare with holding, value the original opening assets at the same review price.

## Step 2: Open Increase Investment

Select `Increase Investment` from the target position, then open the funding-mode menu. The menu offers `USDC Only` and `USDC + TSLAon`, where TSLAon is this position's stock token.

*Choose the assets you want to provide. USDC Only is selected here; switch to USDC + TSLAon if you want to enter both assets. Snapshot as of October 19, 2026.*

A USDC-only input uses a conversion to prepare any stock tokens the position needs. For a two-asset input, enter both amounts and check whether the preview still needs an auto-swap to adjust the ratio.

For the USDC field, check the source network and its available balance. The selected source network can differ from the stock token's network. One submission uses one selected USDC source network; it does not combine balances from several networks.

## Step 3: Review the new amounts at the current price

In a hypothetical example, you originally deposited 1,000 USDC and now add 300 USDC. The preview prepares assets for that new 300 USDC; your existing liquidity stays in the position. The screenshots below show a separate 25 USDC increase.

A price move inside the unchanged range changes the ratio needed for the new deposit. Close to the upper bound, the position needs more USDC; close to the lower bound, it needs more stock tokens.

When the increase requires an auto-swap, inspect the original input and the estimated resulting amounts. For an eligible Ondo conversion, a solver partner integrated with DeGate can request a quote through Ondo's official API. The conversion amount and live quote determine how much stock token the added capital can supply.

If the increase needs a conversion and no usable quote is available, wait for quotes to return. After entering the amounts, read `Auto-swap via U.S. stock market` on the input screen, then check both asset quantities under `After auto-swap` in `Review Investment`. [One-Sided or Two-Sided Deposit](https://degate.com/guides/stocks/liquidity/single-or-dual-deposit-for-a-stock-lp/) explains how the amounts fit the range.

*This increase preview uses 25 USDC from Solana to prepare TSLAon and USDC for the Ethereum position. Check the original range and maximum network fee before confirming. Snapshot as of October 19, 2026.*

## Step 4: Confirm the added capital and costs

Auto-swaps within Turbo Range do not incur DeGate's 0.02% Swap fee. This exemption also applies to the conversion needed for an increase. Network fees and any spread in the quote still apply. Review a separate manual trade outside Turbo Range under its own fee preview.

Before authorizing the increase, compare the input sheet with the final preview:

| Check | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Target | The intended position, stock token, and Ethereum pool |
| Settings | The existing fee tier and bounds still fit your plan |
| Funding | Correct stock-token amount and USDC source network |
| Conversion | Any auto-swap and the resulting two asset amounts |
| Cost | Current network-fee estimate and any spread in the conversion quote |

Check that the USDC balance on your selected source network covers the amount you want to add. Then check which assets the preview uses to pay the network fee and leave enough of those assets to cover it.

Use the verification method shown by your device, then follow the operation until DeGate reports its result. If the action remains pending, inspect that operation before starting another increase. A repeated submission could add another amount if both operations complete.

## Step 5: Check the completed increase

After `Increase Successful` appears, use `View Position` to return to the same position and open Position History. Find the new action by its time and inspect the assets supplied, any conversion, and the fee record available for it. Compare the wallet balance changes with the completed action.

Compare the completed amounts with the preview. If they differ, open the transaction or operation link supplied by DeGate. Check that record too if the position value has not updated.

*Open Increase investment in Position History to see the actual assets added and the conversion used for this increase. Snapshot as of October 19, 2026.*

Keep the original opening record as well as the increase. Position Details includes `Initial entry price`; a later deposit has its own execution time and amounts. Check each contribution by its own date, amount, and asset quantities, using that deposit's completed record.

## Separate the deposit from performance

Consider a simplified hypothetical review:

| Item | Value |
|---|---:|
| Original contribution | 1,000 USDC |
| Later contribution | 300 USDC |
| Current principal and all fee assets, valued at one time | 1,340 USDC |
| Costs paid outside that recorded value | 5 USDC |
| Gain after those costs | 35 USDC |

The calculation is `1,340 - 1,000 - 300 - 5 = 35 USDC`. Comparing 1,340 with the original 1,000 alone would count your 300 USDC contribution as earnings. The illustration assumes no other deposits or withdrawals and includes earlier claimed fees in the 1,340 figure.

The 35 USDC is what you earned after subtracting all contributions and the listed costs. To compare percentage returns across positions, also account for the dates of their deposits.

## FAQ

### Does the auto-swap for an increase incur the 0.02% Swap fee?

No. Auto-swaps within Turbo Range do not incur DeGate's 0.02% Swap fee. Include network fees and any quote spread when evaluating the increase, and review a separate trade outside Turbo Range under its own fee preview.

### Can I add USDC without buying the stock token first?

For a supported position, review the USDC-only increase preview. If it needs stock tokens, the flow requires an executable conversion quote. Check the resulting amounts before confirming.

### Does adding capital widen the existing range?

No. An increase adds to the selected position with its existing settings. In the current version of Turbo Range, changing the bounds or fee tier requires closing and opening another position.

### Will the increase use my original deposit ratio?

The current price and existing bounds determine the required ratio. A price move since opening can change the amounts needed for the new deposit.

### Can I add claimed LP fees back to the position?

After claiming, use Increase Investment to add the assets from your wallet. The current version requires this separate action to reinvest fees. Check any auto-swap and network costs before confirming.
