I am not sure whether I understand what you are saying Furious 7 - especially since DCE involves ongoing buying at any price, so by definition there wouldn't be any needs to change behaviors merely because of a BTC price dip, and so whatever was the scheduled DCA amount to buy, then that should not change - even though surely anyone exercising consistent DCA by definition, would end up getting more sats for the same number of dollars.
Now if you are doing extra or changing your DCA, then that is not really strict DCA anymore but instead a kind of hybrid that takes advantage of the dip, in the employment of buying on dips practices.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that it's bad because I know that DCA is something that is indeed one of the strategies that can be done and I still agree that it should be sustainable (consistent) with the previous but the point of adjusting what I mean is that when we do DCA in conditions like this then we also have to have a reserve fund that can be used as an optional to buy dips because this can also be done.
This might sound impulsive and a pretty barbaric strategy, but if we can afford to do something like that then why not.
It is not meant to change the DCA that was done before and the DCA still continues to be done, it's just that we can also take advantage of making some new purchases when a decline like this occurs because this would be a shame to miss.
You both made a clear point on DCA during the dip and between being a passive/consistent DCA practitioner or a multi market speculator who take advantage of the market conditions to make their oder book, this may go side ways, like in my own situation, i DCA both upward and downwards that is to say i don't have specific DCA time frame like others have such as waiting for the bull run before DCA but for me i have a bilateral portfolio where my total Bitcoin accumulation percentage is divided into two, were the bigger part belong to my cold wallet for long term base, and the other smaller part is left to take chances in the volatility of the bitcoin market and this way i can use this remaining amount to buy or sell at any time.
This have been my approach since late 2022 and up till now i have not changed in my approach to Bitcoin accumulation vs DCA sentimental market approach which feeds on the volatility of Bitcoin.
