By dividing up the total amount to be invested across periodic purchases of a target asset in an effort you may be able to reduce the impact of volatility on the overall purchase. Dollar-cost averaging can help reduce risk and preserve capital to avoid a market crash. It will provide liquidity and flexibility in managing an investment portfolio.
