Translating "saldos por dia base" into English, we get "balance per day base". Literal translation. In my savings account, I see a calendar showing a month. In some days, I see an amount. That makes me think that I made an investment on the savings account on that day. I suppose that if I put another amount on some of those days, the values will add up. I suppose the bank keeps these values on days because it is always on those days that they pay me interest. Is that correct?

Question. So if I want to take that money off of the savings account and put into another investment, then I guess I should wait for each of those days (so I'm paid) and then make the reinvestment on that same day. Does that make sense? Am I reading this thing properly?

Thank you!

    If you want to know whether you are reading it correctly, you need to get the actual text to a native speaker who understands Brazilian banking practice. One phrase in isolation, on an English -based site, may not get reliable answers

Yes, that's correct. These base days are also known as deposit "anniversaries".

So if I want to take that money off of the savings account and put into another investment, then I guess I should wait for each of those days (so I'm paid) and then make the reinvestment on that same day. Does that make sense? Am I reading this thing properly?

You are again correct. You won't be paid any interests if you withdraw before the anniversary (or the next business day) of that amount.
