I’m receiving a large amount of money. I’ve been investing bi-weekly and will continue to do so, but not sure what to do with this large amount. Do I invest daily/weekly in chunks until I’ve used it all over 3/6/12 months? I would be grateful for any insight.

    DCA or large sum

      Do daily then reduce to what you can afford to invest. But me personally I’d just lump sum it to get over with it.

      Whatever helps you sleep better at night.

      Seriously. We don’t know which option will perform better. We do know that lump sum performs better most of the time, but today vs some DCA strat? No idea. So whatever makes you feel better is fine.

      Depends on the type of buyer you are and your conviction

      Personally I know what I’m buying in btc so I lump summed first then began DCA

    4. I have avoided buying in the bear part of BTC cycles. It turns into a weird game of chasing a short term rally.

      In 2023-2024 I did small lump sum on big sell offs and DCA’d when bitcoin rallied back in 2023-2024.

      Best thing I ever did was lump sum over 11 years ago then DCA afterwards.

      Buy a huge chunk now and then buy a set weekly amount forever to average it out
