Dollar-Cost-Average Strategy Tool

Should I Lump-Sum buy or Dollar-Cost-Average (DCA) my investment, and if I spread it out, over how many days? Below you can find the optimal strategy based on the phase of the 4-year cycle we are in.

Please note that the results presented are based on today's date within the 4-year cycle, assuming your investment begins today. These outcomes will dynamically evolve daily in alignment with the current phase of the 4-year cycle. If you intend to invest in the future, feel free to revisit the tool for the latest results.

Disclaimer: historic performance does not guarantee future results, not financial advice.

Let's consider the strategies:
  • Over X amount of days
    - Equal Division of principal
  • Lump Sum

DCA
The optimal time frame based on the current position in the cycle to invest with a 'Equal Division' strategy is 294 days.
