I deposit into my Betterment account every Monday. My portfolio is 64% stocks 36% bonds, almost entirely Vanguard index funds. I'm wondering what the best day to schedule these recurring investments is. Say, for example, over the past five years, VTI + VEA have opened 0.25% lower on Wednesdays, whereas on Thursdays they have, on average, opened 0.25% higher. Obviously, I would like to buy on Wednesday. Any insight?
I thought about writing a bash/Python script to do this, but querying the Google API for every fund's open price every day for the last five years is basically asking for Google to block my IP.
