Pro Tips
What is Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)?: DCA is an investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of the stock's price. This often results in a lower average cost per share over time.
How does this calculator work?: It takes the total number of shares you've bought and divides it by the total amount of money you've spent. This gives you the 'weighted average' price.
Why is knowing my average price important?: It helps you determine your break-even point and allows you to accurately calculate your percentage gains or losses on the entire position.
