About this metric
Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) invests a fixed amount on a fixed schedule regardless of price, removing the stress of timing entries. This simulation buys at the first daily close of every month and values the position at the latest close. It ignores trading fees and taxes, and past performance — especially in an asset with this volatility — does not predict future results.
Methodology

- All figures are calculated by CoinCrypTick from that raw data — nothing is quoted from third parties.
- Not financial advice. Crypto assets are volatile; read the drawdown page before the returns page.
