DCA involves consistently investing smaller, equal amounts over time, as opposed to making large, irregular crypto purchases. Think of it as making payments for a product in installments, at regular intervals, until the total is paid off. When you regularly invest in your preferred cryptocurrencies, you automatically accumulate more assets over time, regardless of market fluctuations. This can help you grow your holdings and potentially reduce your overall average cost during market dips.
I am a huge fan of the DCA method and would recommend it to anybody that is looking for ways to add crypto currencies to their portfolio. Finding the optimal time to buy and sell our coins is nearly impossible, it requires a lot of research and even then, we still need some luck to hit the exact bottom or top to make the best possible trade. Trying to chase these optimal timings can become frustrating and that is why I like the DCA method so much, we acknowledge the issue and look for an alternative approach. The traditional DCA method works great when you have a large amount of money that you are looking to invest in the next few months. In my situation it's a bit different, I don't have any large amounts of money to invest and can only save a part of my salary each month. In that case I relax the DCA requirements a bit and don’t buy a fixed amount each month. For anybody like me that has different amounts available each month I would also recommend to just buy the coins each month and don’t worry so much about the purchase price each time, on average it should be a good price.
