> Hard to beat dollar cost averaging the entire stock market

Easy! Dollar cost average a leverage fund that invests in the entire stock market. TQQQ beats SPY over the long term.

TQQQ indexes the Nasdaq 100, not remotely close to "the entire stock market".

True, and SPY is only S&P 500. But you get my point.
I DCA TQQQ, but you have to know that in 2008, for example, had a 96% drawdown. The triple leverage can basically wipe out your entire equity, so you need a strong stomach.
I just do it in my play money account. Casual day trading wastes too much time that I could otherwise waste on HN, so I risk my money with TQQQ instead.
