What Crypto DCA Calculator does
Dollar-cost averaging — buying a fixed or variable amount at regular intervals regardless of price — is a common strategy for building a crypto position without trying to time the market. This tool takes a list of your actual purchases and calculates your total invested, total coins held, and average entry price across all of them, plus your current profit or loss if you provide today's price.
How to calculate your DCA average
- Add a row for each purchase: how much you spent and the price per coin at the time.
- Use + Add purchase to enter your full buying history.
- Optionally enter the current price per coin to see your position's current value and profit or loss.
- Select Calculate to see your totals.
How the average entry price is calculated
Your average entry price is your total amount invested divided by the total coins you've accumulated — not a simple average of each purchase's price, which would ignore that you likely bought different amounts at each price point. This weighted calculation gives a more accurate picture of your actual cost basis.
Why this matters for DCA specifically
The whole point of dollar-cost averaging is that it smooths out entry price over time — tracking your real average lets you see that effect concretely, instead of anchoring on the price of your most recent or most memorable purchase.
