Worked example

FAQ
- Where do the prices come from?
- Daily closes for BTC-USD and ETH-USD from Yahoo Finance, saved with the site. The page names the as-of date of that file. There is no live quote.
- How is this different from the Crypto DCA Calculator?
- That calculator uses an average price and a current price you type. This one walks a historical close series and draws the value over time.
- Are the dollars Australian?
- No. The series is quoted in US dollars, so the amount you enter is treated as USD.
