Dollar-cost averaging (DCA)

Buying a fixed dollar amount of bitcoin on a regular schedule (for example, every week) regardless of price. DCA removes the need to time the market: you buy more when the price is low and less when it is high, smoothing your average entry over time. It is the default strategy the Buying Gauge assumes when conditions are mixed.

The Buying Gauge does not replace DCA · it tells you when to lean into or ease off your scheduled buys. A STACK NOW reading is a cue to deploy extra on top of the baseline DCA, not to abandon the schedule.
