Yeah, time-in-the-market, apart from a very few specific points in history, beats timing-the-market.
The reason why dollar-cost averaging in the long run (if you already have the cash) is a bad strategy is that you're basically betting that the market is going to go down. For example, S&P500 has generally been 70% up and 30% down for the whole time. If you DCA, you're betting on the 30% chance. Smart money bets on the 70% chance.
Putting 100k every month from the paycheck is also exercising the time-in-the-market strategy; investing the extra money you have when you get it.

I agree with this statement. I plan to automate everything, going forward. Scheduled monthly deposits. Ignore the noise completely and treat investing like a bill I have to pay.blos wrote: ↑Sat Jul 03, 2021 4:34 am Yeah, time-in-the-market, apart from a very few specific points in history, beats timing-the-market.

Totally automated investing w/ free point harvesting is the goal.
