What dollar-cost averaging does
DCA spreads purchases over time so you buy more when prices are low and less when they are high. It reduces the risk of putting everything in at a bad moment. It does not make an investment safer if the asset itself falls for good.
How to read the result
Average cost per coin is what you effectively paid. Compare it with today’s price to see where you stand. Fees matter: a 1.5% fee on every small purchase adds up.
FAQ
Why only one year of history?
The free market-data service we use provides up to 365 days of daily prices.
Is DCA better than buying all at once?
Neither wins every time. Lump sums do better in steadily rising markets; DCA softens the blow of buying before a drop.
