Hvad er DCA?
DCA er en strategi, hvor du investerer et fast beløb med regelmæssige intervaller.
DCA removes the guesswork of market timing. Instead of trying to buy the bottom, you spread purchases over time, reducing the impact of volatility on your average entry price.
DCA is the single most recommended strategy for new crypto investors. Even professional traders use DCA to build large positions over weeks or months.
DCA Formula
The core DCA calculation:
DCA vs Lump Sum
In a perfectly rising market, lump sum wins because money is invested immediately. But in volatile, uncertain markets — which crypto always is — DCA usually produces better risk-adjusted returns.
| Factor | DCA | Engangs |
|---|---|---|
| Timing risk | Low — spread across periods | High — all at one price |
| Emotional stress | Low — automated, no FOMO | High — fear of bad entry |
| Best in bear market? | ✅ Yes — buys more at lower prices | ❌ No — full exposure to drop |
| Best in bull market? | Average — misses some upside | ✅ Yes — full exposure to rally |
Crypto DCA Strategies
The best DCA frequency depends on the asset and your budget. Here are recommended approaches for popular cryptocurrencies:
| Asset | Recommended Frequency | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| BTC | Ugentligt | Most proven. Weekly DCA over 4+ years has never lost money. |
| ETH | Månedligt | Strong fundamentals. Monthly works well for mid-term holdings. |
| SOL | Hver 2. uge | Higher volatility. Bi-weekly captures more price swings. |
| Stablecoin Yield | Månedligt | Monthly into DeFi protocols for steady yield. |
Common DCA Mistakes
Crashes are when DCA works best — you're buying at discounted prices. Pausing defeats the entire strategy.
DCA only works with fundamentally sound assets. Averaging down on a coin going to zero is just losing money slower.
Small transaction fees add up over hundreds of purchases. Use exchanges with low or zero trading fees for DCA.
