FAQ
How is the average price calculated?
Total cost of all purchases divided by total shares. Example: 10 shares at $50 and 10 at $40 gives (500+400)/20 = $45.
How does the average-down formula work?
Shares to buy = holdings × (current average − target) ÷ (target − buy price). The target must sit between the buy price and your current average; results are rounded up to whole shares.
Are fees and taxes included?
No — the math uses raw prices. Broker fees are usually small, but add them for a conservative break-even.
Is averaging down always a good idea?
It lowers your break-even but increases exposure to a falling stock. This tool does the math; the investment decision should rest on the stock itself.
