Nobody knows whether it will go higher or lower. But time is of essence, consistency is key, so I suggest you just DCA now but with a longer time frame. Example biweekly 100 dollars, if it drops to a comfortable range you could do 100 weekly or 200 biweekly. Don’t try to time the market, time in the market is key.

DCA is just a general investing strategy, which is just buy routinely and the cost of your entire investment averages out over a period of time. RSP is just moomoo’s feature to automate your buys automatically to enable you to do DCA, without you doing it manually.

Of course if there’s cheaper broker fees then go with that. My bank charges the same as moomoo so no difference for me. Also I am lazy to deal with constant switching between platforms, since moomoo has wide variety of investment options I might as well do all my investments in one place. 1.5% fee is high but that depends on your investment horizon, 1 year sure its a lot, 10 years maybe not so much. Pick your poison.

Discern the burning monk OP : Sorry is dca the same as rsp that moomoo provides? Haven’t done this before.
Discern Discern : The processing fee is 1.5%! But banks charge lower like 0.8%. Your views.
