🌊 Riding the Market Waves Smoothly

During times of volatility, most investors either panic or freeze — but not me. Thanks to my disciplined dollar-cost averaging (DCA) approach, I keep investing at regular intervals regardless of market sentiment. Just look at my recent trades in SPYG (SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 Growth ETF). Across May 7, 2025, I made several micro sales and purchases. While the market swung between $83.03 and $83.71, I wasn’t trying to time the top or bottom. I just stayed the course.

📉 Selling Fractions at Slight Peaks

You’ll notice a series of fractional share sales as the price hovered around $83.65 to $83.11. These tiny divestments let me lock in gains or reposition without making drastic moves. Each fraction may seem small (0.0121 to 0.013 shares), but they add up when done systematically. This tactic is like pruning a tree — strategic and healthy — ensuring my portfolio doesn’t get overly concentrated.

📈 Buying the Dip — Even If It’s Shallow

Then came the buys — three fractional purchases at $83.46, $83.45, and $83.38. That’s the beauty of dollar-cost averaging: I add on red days, without the stress of predicting the exact bottom. These buys happened while the price was slightly lower than previous highs, and when combined over time, they reduce my average cost basis.

🧠 Emotion-Free Investing = Smarter Gains

Emotions are the enemy of sound investing. With DCA, I remove emotion entirely. Whether SPYG is up, down, or flat, I act consistently. This method doesn’t just bring peace of mind — it also quietly builds wealth. Over time, those small fractional moves create a smoother, more stable growth curve, particularly in index-linked ETFs like SPYG, which track long-term upward market trends.

📊 The Power of Micro Moves

To the untrained eye, buying or selling 0.012 shares seems trivial. But in volatile markets, these micro moves create efficiency. I’m adjusting exposure without making risky all-in bets. Think of it as chess, not roulette — each piece matters. My approach lets me stay invested, preserve liquidity, and gain an edge when others are overreacting.

In short: while others get swept away by the storm, I’m quietly sailing ahead. 🌬️⛵ Dollar-cost averaging in SPYG and similar ETFs is how I profit with poise during turbulent times
