I have a slightly strange question.
I am in a situation where I am exempt from CGT. It’s a long story, but I am a non tax resident in the U.K. and I am a temporary resident in Australia. (I don’t think the question is relevant to either of those countries so I posted in this sub). This status means that capital gains are not taxable in either country. My tax residency status is going to change in Australia which will mean capital gains will become taxable.
I have existing investments of ~£100k in trading accounts and over the last few years have made a decent gain.
I want to realise my gains tax free, that is fine. I will sell all the assets and then go back into something slightly different.
My question is, should I dollar cost average back in or lump sum it? I think my gut says to dollar cost average back in. But over what timescale?
