Dollar cost averaging (DCA) means investing a fixed amount at regular intervals regardless of market conditions. It reduces the impact of volatility by buying more shares when prices are low and fewer when high. It removes emotion from timing.
Example
Investing $500 in an index fund on the 1st of every month is DCA.
