Question 1

How much would I have if I DCA'd $100/week into RSI for 5 years?

Accepted Answer

Dollar cost averaging $100 per week into RSI for 5 years (261 purchases) would have resulted in a total investment of $26,100 and a current value of $68,241, a return of 161%. Using Enhanced DCA, which concentrates buys during dips, the same $100/week base deployed $36,756 and grew to $135,536 — a 269% return.

Question 2

What is the best DCA strategy for RSI?

Backtesting shows Enhanced DCA — which increases buy amounts during market dips and reduces or skips buys when RSI is overextended — outperformed standard weekly DCA by 107% over 5 years. The enhanced strategy achieved a 269% return vs 161% for standard DCA.

Question 3

What would $100/week into RSI be worth after 3 years?

Accepted Answer

Investing $100 per week into RSI for 3 years (157 purchases, $15,700 total) would have grown to $28,058 — a 79% return. Enhanced DCA over the same period returned 153%.

Question 4

Is DCA into RSI worth it?

Based on a 5-year backtest, DCA into RSI returned 161% with standard weekly purchases. An intelligent DCA strategy that buys more during dips returned 269% over the same period — a 107% gain in return, while deploying more capital.

Question 5

How many shares of RSI would I have after DCA for 5 years?

Dollar cost averaging $100/week into RSI for 5 years would result in approximately 3611 shares with a standard DCA approach (avg entry $7). Enhanced DCA targeting dips results in 7171 shares at an average entry of $5.

Question 6

How does RSI DCA compare to the S&P 500?

Accepted Answer

Enhanced DCA into RSI returned 269% over the past 5 years. The S&P 500 (SPY) returned approximately 53% over the same period. RSI's performance reflects its volatility as a consumer discretionary asset. Enhanced DCA outperformed standard DCA by 107%, demonstrating the value of intelligent entry timing during market dips.

Question 7

What is the risk of dollar cost averaging into RSI?

Accepted Answer

Past backtest performance does not guarantee future results. RSI is a consumer discretionary asset whose price can fall as well as rise. While DCA reduces timing risk by spreading purchases over time, losses are still possible if the price declines significantly. Always invest within your risk tolerance and consider your overall portfolio diversification.

Question 8

What is the Rush Street Interactive, Inc. dollar cost averaging strategy?

Accepted Answer

Standard DCA invests a fixed amount ($100/week or $433/month) into RSI at regular intervals. Enhanced DCA improves on this by using RSI (Relative Strength Index) signals to increase buy amounts during market dips (oversold conditions) and reduce or skip purchases when the stock is overextended. Over the 5-year backtest, this timing approach has delivered 107% higher returns than standard DCA while deploying more total capital into RSI.
