Pie weekly or monthly?

Hello any thoughts on what is best regards investing in my pie monthly or weekly? I’m only talking a couple of hundred each month, in which case does it matter?

All in on pay day or daily autoinvest?

As title really filling out my isa, so all just long positions. Would you autoinvest the lump sum each pay day or would you use the daily option?

Doesn’t matter too much over the long term, meaning over at least 10 years. Daily is better for dealing with volatility so you’ll technically gain closer to the real return of the stock. But if you buy every month, it should average out, so sometimes you buy 3% too high and sometimes 3% too low. But there is more risk in the latter so I would say putting money in every day is better for long term investing, but again shouldn’t be a big difference between the two

Useful thank you, I’ll probably go weekly then and keep the momentum going.

Lump sum in general outperforms daily/weekly, time in the market wins in long term on average.

With that said, in volatile times like this it wouldn’t be wrong to go weekly, but anyway most statistics show time in market wins meaning as soon as paycheck lands lump sum invest.

Judging by the market I think most of my shares are for the long haul now, so they’ll definitely get time in the market ha ha

I don’t even need to think about it, weekly works for me as I get paid weekly

If they ever change me to monthly pay, I just follow suit and dump it in. Imagine getting paid only once annually??

Well you would be happy on “the day”, not so when past 6 month mark, 6 more to go.
