# Autocompound

If you want to make your deposits more efficient, you can autocompound your rewards daily. It is very simple!

> Autocompound means accumulating the ETH generated by your deposits in the deposit itself. This way you will generate profitability on both the initial deposit and the rewards generated.
>
> A simple example: you have a deposit of 100 ETH with active autocompound. The deposit generates a total of 0.5 ETH during the last 24h. By having autocompound active, your deposit will become 100.5 ETH, generating rewards over 100.5 ETH.

## How to activate autocompound to your deposit

* [x] Go to [app.ethernodes.io](https://app.ethernodes.io/login) and log in with your user. If you don't have a user yet, [here](/using-ethernodes.io/create-your-account.md)'s your guide to signing up!<br>
* [x] You can activate autocompound at the time you are making the deposit. Simply select the “Activate Autocompound” option on the deposit creation tab.

> Follow the instructions to make a deposit found [here](/using-ethernodes.io/deposit.md)

* [x] If you already have an active deposit or have not dared to activate autocompound when making the deposit, don't worry! You can activate or deactivate it at any time. On the left side of each tank you will see a circular arrow. Click on it.

> Rewards are auto-composed every day at 1PM UTC.

* [x] You can easily check if your tank has autocompound activated by seeing the color of the circular arrow to the left of each tank:\
  Gray = Off\
  Green = Activated

> Automating rewards on your deposits is a simple way to improve your staking performance. You can deactivate it at any time to request a withdrawal of funds. You don't lose anything by having it active!
