How portfolio values are calculated

Each purchase buys Tether at that day's price. The portfolio value is the amount of Tether you have bought so far, multiplied by the price on that day.

For example, if your purchases have added up to 5 Tether and the price is $500, the value is 5 x $500 = $2,500.

Profit is the value minus the total you have put in, and profit % is that profit as a share of the total invested. The lump sum figures use the same method for a single purchase on the start date, equal to the total of all your DCA purchases.

Prices come from CoinGecko and are converted into your chosen currency with the most recent exchange rate from ExchangeRate-API, applied to the whole period. Past results do not predict future returns.

USDT Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) is a popular investment strategy that is often used in the world of cryptocurrency. USDT DCA involves investing a fixed amount of money into USDT (Tether) on a regular basis, regardless of the current market price. Because you buy at many different prices, no single purchase has to be perfectly timed.

Here's an example of how USDT DCA works: let's say that you want to invest $500 in Tether. Instead of buying $500 worth of Tether all at once, you could use the USDT DCA strategy to buy $100 worth of Tether every week for five weeks. This means that you would be buying Tether at different prices each week, depending on how the market is moving. If the price of Tether goes up during those five weeks, you will be buying less Tether each week. But if the price of Tether goes down, you will be buying more Tether each week.

The main advantage of the USDT DCA strategy is that it spreads your entry across many prices. A single badly timed purchase has less impact, and you avoid deciding when to buy based on emotion. A schedule set in advance can also make investing easier to stick with.

DCA does not guarantee a better result. If the price rises steadily, buying everything at the start usually ends ahead, because more of your money is invested for longer. DCA tends to look better when the price falls or swings widely after you start, since later purchases buy more Tether at lower prices.

This calculator shows both outcomes side by side for your own dates, so you can compare them using real Tether history. Cryptocurrency prices are volatile, and past results do not predict future returns.
