How the calculator works
Starting on the date you choose, it buys your amount of Aster at each scheduled day's closing price, adds up the coins, and values them at the latest close. Monthly purchases land on the same day of the month as the first one. The lump-sum figure puts the same total in on the first day instead.
It is a record of what already happened, not a forecast. A plan that started before a long rise looks good and one that started before a fall looks bad, and neither tells you which comes next.
