What is a Recurring Buy?

An investing feature offered on Altify that enables you to automatically purchase fixed amounts of your favourite assets over time at set intervals.

For example, you can create a Recurring Buy to purchase $10 worth of Bitcoin (BTC) each month, in order to build a bigger Bitcoin position over time.

The strategy is called dollar cost averaging (DCA), as investors buy-in at the average market price over time.

What is Dollar-Cost Averaging?

DCA is an investment strategy where you invest a fixed amount of money into a particular asset, like a cryptocurrency or Crypto Bundle, at regular intervals regardless of the asset's price. This method helps reduce the impact of market volatility and can lead to improved investment returns by mitigating the risks associated with market timing.

Is a Recurring Buy the same as Dollar-Cost Averaging?

While they are related, Recurring Buys and Dollar-Cost Averaging at Altify aren’t exactly the same. Our Recurring Buys automate your cryptocurrency investments at predetermined intervals, supporting the DCA strategy by regularly investing fixed sums to reduce the effects of market fluctuation.
