Reading the TRON table
The spread between the best and worst starting year is the whole story of TRX: 2020 turned $1,000 into $25,726, while 2026 turned it into $1,185. Same coin, same holding discipline, different entry.
Annualised return is the fairer comparison across rows, since a purchase in 2019 has had far longer to compound than one in 2026. Worst drawdown shows the deepest fall each position took from its own peak, which is what a holder actually had to sit through.
If the entry date matters this much
That is the argument for spreading purchases out. The TRON DCA calculator runs the same price history with a fixed weekly or monthly buy instead of a single date.
