Dollar-cost averaging is investing a fixed amount at regular intervals regardless of market conditions. This systematically buys more shares when prices are low and fewer when prices are high.
Average Cost Per Share = Total Invested / Total Shares Purchased
Investing $500/month: at $50/share you buy 10 shares, at $25/share you buy 20 shares. Over time, your average cost per share is lower than the average price during the period.
