Supposed I bought qqqm & vwra long term dca regularly for 20 to 30 years.

I would have bought a lot of shares (including fractional shares) in both etf.

Then my NLV will be the estimated money I might have if I liquidate both etf.

But overall returns for both might not be profits if there a period of time when the market is bear.

So if I have an average return of 10% yearly and maybe 8% yearly for vwra. In 20 to 30 years time the return would have total up.

How to calculate the total gain I would have if I sell off my assets before retire?
