DCA + DRIP Simulator [WynTrader]
Hello my friend
This tool simulates real effect of an investment plan when a disciplined DCA+DRIP strategy compounds growth, compared to simply investing and pocketing the dividends. It applies to all kind of security with or without dividend paid, so you can compare what tickers you want..
This isn't a simplified estimate. It reads real price, dividend, and split data directly from TradingView — bar by bar, month by month — and reconstructs what a real investor would have experienced. Apply it to any security — dividend-paying or not, stock, ETF, closed-end fund — and see the picture side by side: with DRIP and no DRIP.
█ CONCEPTS
This indicator illustrates clearly that DCA+DRIP can build more wealth over time than a standard monthly investment approach where dividends are simply cashed out with no plan in mind.
— Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) means investing a consistent amount every single month, no matter what the market does. When prices drop, your money buys more shares automatically. Over time, this discipline lowers your average cost and keeps emotion out of the equation.
— Dividend Re-Investment Plan (DRIP) means every dividend payment goes straight back into buying more shares, instead of sitting idle. Those extra shares generate their own dividends, which buy more shares — a compounding effect that grows the longer you stay invested.
Together, DCA + DRIP compound together over time.
█ HOW IT WORKS
Set your chart to MONTHLY intervals, else the table is set to zero.
Once configured, the indicator reads price, dividend, and split data directly from TradingView and simulates what a real investor would have experienced: buying every month (DCA), collecting dividends, reinvesting them automatically (DRIP) and adjust data with Splits.
█ FEATURES
Configurable DCA Parameters
Set your initial deposit, monthly contribution, and an optional annual DCA increase (e.g. +5%/yr to reflect salary growth and inflation over time). A withholding tax rate can also be applied for US-listed securities (e.g. 15% for ZQQ).
Flexible Date Range
The simulation runs from your chosen: a) Number of years to date; b) Start date to date; c) Visible chart from Start/End dates of your chart screen.
Side-by-Side Comparison
Every result is shown in two columns simultaneously — With DRIP and No DRIP. Capital, monthly dividend income, total dividends received, net gain, and share count — all at a glance.
Fully Customizable Table Display
Position, text size, and all colors are adjustable directly from the settings panel, so the table fits cleanly on any chart layout.
█ CONCLUSION
Load this indicator on any security — stock, ETF, closed-end fund, with or without dividends. DCA+DRIP Simulator applies to all of them, though DRIP's effect is most visible on dividend-paying securities, where reinvested dividends compound over time.
The difference between With DRIP and No DRIP can be significant over time.
