DCA Plans

Automate your dollar-cost averaging strategy.

What is Dollar-Cost Averaging?

Dollar-cost averaging (DCA) is an investment strategy where you buy a fixed amount of an asset at regular intervals, regardless of price. This helps:

  • 📉 Reduce Impact of Volatility — Average out price fluctuations
  • 🧘 Remove Emotion — Invest consistently without timing the market
  • 🎯 Build Discipline — Systematic approach to investing
  • Set and Forget — Automate your investment routine
