What if you had hodled?

StrategyHodl is an independent historical investment calculator for Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy, ticker MSTR), Bitcoin and market benchmarks. It combines investment comparisons, monthly purchase simulations, portfolio mixes, drawdowns and explanations of Strategy valuation metrics. It is not affiliated with Strategy Incorporated.

Choose an investment amount, start date and currency, then select Strategy and Bitcoin. Add the S&P 500, Nasdaq-100 or gold for context. More options lets you choose an end date or monthly contributions. Update comparison to see the historical values, gains and drawdowns, and open Data dates & sources to check the actual coverage.

Explore now shows one tool at a time: Purchase timing, Holding periods, HODL game or Portfolio mix. Choose a tab to open it. Your choices stay in each tool while you switch tabs during this page visit.

Your last applied calculator inputs and chart choices are remembered on this browser. On a later visit, choose Continue comparison or Start fresh. A shared comparison link takes priority. Forget last comparison removes this local record without deleting named favorites. Clearing browser data also removes it.

No. It splits a starting budget between two investments, buys both once, then holds them. Their percentages can change as prices move. The mix and both single-investment comparisons use the same dates and budget; the tool shows the combined portfolio’s drawdown, not an average of the individual drawdowns.

When a news source cannot refresh, we keep its last successful headlines for up to seven days and show when they were fetched. Each source has its own saved copy. The official Strategy links remain available even if the news feeds cannot load.

The owner sees page-view counts, approximate visits and broad traffic-source groups. The counter does not store IP addresses, contact details, calculator inputs or full referrer URLs. It uses no visitor cookies or persistent browser identifiers, and respects Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Visits are anonymous page sessions; reloads and separate tabs can count separately. The public counter shows visits over the last 30 days. Detailed visitor statistics are private.

Comparisons use dates with prices for every selected investment. A weekend, a market holiday, a later listing date or missing history can move the start forward or the end backward. Currency and Bitcoin views also need matching conversion data.

The calculator uses Yahoo Finance adjusted daily prices, which account for splits and distributions where the provider supplies them. It assumes reinvestment and fractional holdings. This is a historical simulation, not a record of actual trades.

GLD is the investable ETF proxy used for gold. SPY represents the S&P 500, QQQ the Nasdaq-100 and VT global stocks. Their prices reflect fund expenses and can differ from an index or the spot price of gold.

This is a daily historical comparison. It excludes the current UTC day and does not show intraday quotes. Market-data availability varies; when a source cannot refresh, a clearly labeled saved snapshot may be used. Open Data dates & sources near your result to see the actual coverage.

Amount, start date, end date and monthly contributions apply when you select Update comparison. An unapplied-changes message keeps that visible. Investment choices, currency and chart switches update immediately. Saving and exporting become available after your pending inputs are applied.

You still fund the investment in your selected fiat currency. Each historical portfolio value is expressed in Bitcoin using that date’s Bitcoin price. The gain compares that final BTC value with the Bitcoin the same contributions could have bought at each purchase date.

Search by name or ticker and choose the correct exchange and currency. This calculator supports USD-quoted listings with sufficient adjusted price history. Non-USD listings are shown for context but cannot be selected. If name search is unavailable, you can still try an exact USD ticker.

No. Reset restores the default investments, amount, dates, currency and chart settings. Your named comparisons stay in this browser. They are not stored in an online account; clearing browser data can remove them.

Open Show detailed statistics below the chart and sharing controls for returns, drawdowns and recovery times. Hiding a chart curve does not remove an investment from these calculations or from exports.

Yes. The link includes applied amounts, dates, investments, currency, Bitcoin view, your summary comparison, hidden curves, chart scale, event settings and whether detailed statistics are open. Saved comparisons remember these choices too. The separate Explore tools have their own settings. Refreshed market data can change results when a link is opened later.

The main calculator adds new money each month. Purchase timing starts both approaches with the entire budget already available: one invests it immediately, while the other invests equal installments. Money waiting to be invested stays in the portfolio as cash earning 0% interest in the funding currency. Both hold through the same end date.

The asset ended the selected period below an earlier peak measured in your chosen display currency. The displayed spell stops at the end of the comparison; it is not a completed recovery time or a forecast. These measures use asset prices, excluding your contributions, and consider only peaks within the selected period.
