True, but the important part that many overlook (because they don't read) is that in the remaining 33% of cases DCA beats lump sum *by a major amount* while at 2/3 of the times lump sum *gets ahead, slightly*.

If you have bad luck/timing you can easily see a 50% drop or worse after going in with "once in a lifetime" money. That can screw you over for life. Meanwhile DCA means you'll get *a few percentages, perhaps* less at the end of the day but if there's a black Monday you'll not lose most of your money...on the contrary you'll *buy the dip* and make out like a bandit.

So ask yourself...do you feel lucky? Lucky enough to bet on it? Small sum sure...but a major windfall? I'd take security over bankruptcy any day.
