I like the point that you are emphasising here and it is true that if we are ready to invest in the DCA way, especially if we have started it, then I think there is no specific reason to look at how vulnerable the price is because consistency must be maintained.
The problem that often happens is when we're already working on DCA and we get bogged down with the thought of price, which in the end will make our strategy fall apart in the end.
My initial period in 2002 was like this because I was dizzy with my thinking that was based on price but over time that became the main problem I had because when I was based more on price we would be dizzy so I tried to learn from the beginning and indeed for now it can be said that my method is much better than before with DCA which should not be too concerned about price.
I don't really understand what you are saying. In fact, your explanation is quite roundabout. I also asked what the year 2002 meant. Bitcoin was created by Satoshi in 2009. Even if I had to say that in 2010 only a handful of people bought Bitcoin because at that time many of us or those out there had not heard of the name Bitcoin.
So if you want to buy and hold Bitcoin then do it in any way you like, even with DCA or your own way. But in essence, buying and holding via DCA is a pretty good option, even many of them apply the DCA strategy as the best option for accumulating Bitcoin.
In this period many of us have missed Q1, Q2 and now we are entering the end of Q3. So to what extent are you consistent in accumulating Bitcoin, is there a big plan for you to hold for a long period like the next 5 years or just wait for the BTC price to record a new ATH and you get out at that time?
You misunderstand here friend because we are not discussing about how bitcoin grows but we are discussing the strategies that are carried out when buying bitcoin funds I don't mention anything about bitcoin growth because we already know it and have gone off the topic we discussed in the initial thread.
For 2022 it was the beginning of my DCA and it was only as a view and example when we are wrong in positioning ourselves then we will actually be confused as happened to me in 2022 because at that time I wanted to do DCA but my focus was only on the price which made my DCA disturbed. this is a complement to what @Moreno233 said about the DCA method not caring about the base or price.
