Buying in lump sum can also be good for the short term investment as to those who finds it necessary, maybe a period of 2 years. Imagine those who bought Bitcoin when the price was down as $15k and checking out the current price now that is already enough profit, now holding for a minimum of 2 years this is a blown up investment.
Here is my previous post on DCA vs LUMP SUM investment which is compiled over a period of last 4 years. You can see in the long run LUMP SUM investment beats DCA. Also you can go to
dcacryptocalculator and change duration of investment along with amount and can see whether it works for short duration or not.
DCA is best for those who don't have huge amount to invest at a particular time but can invest small amount for longer period of time. If you dont have enough funds then its best to invest in Bitcoin in DCA manner rather not investing your money anywhere anywhere.
I just have a small working on DCA vs LUM SUM Profit.
DCA:If you invest 100 dollars per week into bitcoin starting from Dec 27, 2019 to Dec 27, 2023. Then your total investment is 20900$ in Bitcoin and ROI after 4 years will be +119% or your total investment goes up to 24870$
LUMP SUM investment and HODL:If you invest total 20900$ in Bitcoin on Dec 27, 2019 and HODL for 4 years then today your ROI will be +505% or investment goes up to 105690$.
