Your prompt

I have $[X] to invest. Should I invest it all now or dollar-cost average over [X] months?

My situation: [retirement account / taxable account], time horizon: [X] years, risk tolerance: [low/medium/high].

Explain what the historical data says about lump-sum vs DCA (no cherry-picking), then give me a recommendation tailored to my risk tolerance and timeline. If you recommend DCA, give me the exact schedule: amounts, dates, and what to do if the market drops 10% mid-schedule.

Paste it into Muse or any assistant. Blank fields stay as [brackets].
