In fact one famous study showed that the ideal market for dollar cost averaging and/or divvy reinvesting is one in which your stocks go up and down regularly... on ave., when the markets performed in such a way, the investor maxed out on total return vs. a market that only goes up or one in which it follows a trend for long periods of time. Sideways chop is the best of all possible outcomes for the divvy investor from what I've read... I suspect a combo of that and swing trading would work best in a sustained always up bull (like some tech or RE bubble market), and it's obvious what works best in a prolonged bear market. Jim
