Is pound-cost averaging really worth it?

The advice of pound-cost averaging is based on the long-term, not for short term one-off investments. It is also more about regular saving. For example, if you saved £10,200 over the next 20 years (assuming the ISA allowance is constant), the result is sometimes you will buy shares at a low cost and sometimes high. Ideally, we would all want the stock market to be low when we are buying and high when we need the money, for example at retirement. In the long run, regular savings is probaly going to give you better returns and a better nights sleep rather than the risk of timing the market. Its time in the market, not timing the market.
