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.
That's what I feel now but not in the past because back then I was still always focussing on price which if you think about it rationally now I'm actually like a lost person with the way I was running before.
But the mistake I made back then was actually very good because if I didn't do that and didn't realise that what I was doing was wrong then I probably would have continued to look at price as a benchmark until now and this has definitely been a good experience for myself.
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.
Actually, I think for some problems that occur and some mistakes are something natural, especially when we are in different conditions like when we started doing DCA. Making some mistakes is a natural thing but if we really want to be better then whether we are able to admit and correct the mistakes that have been made or not because in the end it is also a good experience for ourselves. as long as we do not dare to admit that we have been wrong then forever we will be trapped in standard thinking which in the end makes everything we do always considered right even though it is proven wrong.
