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.
If you continue to worry about the price in your DCA method then this will hinder you, it could be that you keep thinking about the price that has started to rise while still hesitating to continue? I think this thought must be eliminated at least whatever the price is if it's the DCA method then just do it.
This was my initial problem too when I started it was really hard when I kept seeing price movements, if you keep thinking about this then investing in the DCA way will not develop but you will be reluctant to continue because you keep seeing prices.
If the goal of DCA is long-term, there is no need to worry about it, it should be a habit for us that there is no stopping to continue DCA.
I don't know how everyone is DCA, but what I'm doing is I will DCA if the price drops more, but this is not often because I don't always have the money available every time the market drops more. The second method that I am using more often is that I will buy bitcoin at the beginning of the month every time I receive my salary. After I have deducted all necessary living expenses for that month, I will buy Bitcoin with the remaining money regardless of what price it is trading for. Because my sell target is still the new ATH, as long as the price remains below my sell target, I will buy without worrying about the price. Furthermore, bitcoin is unpredictable, waiting for a cheaper price to buy may not be successful.
You are right, once we have used the DCA method but still think about price it will greatly affect our investment.
