When it comes to investment, everybody knows about buying at low and selling at high.
Problem is, when is low and when is high?
It feels good to buy while riding the bull thus, common investor buys when thing is going UP. When price is falling, it feels worrisome to buy more. In reality, investors buy the least when price is falling and buy the most when price is moving up.
To solve this, dollar cost averaging strategy is recommended.
“The technique of buying a fixed dollar amount of a particular investment on a regular schedule, regardless of the share price. More shares are purchased when prices are low, and fewer shares are bought when prices are high.” – Investopedia.org
How to invest silver using this strategy?
While dollar cost averaging works best for shares and mutual funds, it is not as straight forward as it is if you are buying physical silver. We recommend buying physical silver instead of paper silver (some US shares on Mines or Singapore’s UOB silver passbook). It is difficult to schedule a regular amount when you are buying in ounce. You might want to look into investing via Ounce Cost Averaging.
