DCA method is an investment method through which you can buy Bitcoin at any time at any price. DCA method never helps you to hold your holdings long-term. Holding it long-term depends entirely on you.
Yes long term holding requires long term planning. There are many people who bought bitcoins using DCA method but could not hold them for a long time, it is seen that many panic and sell them. DCA strategy is the way to slowly accumulate bitcoins and DCA strategy is the way to buy bitcoins at an average price. So long term planning is required to hold long term investment, no one can succeed without planning. Before doing any work we need to plan, if you can't hold long term then investing in Bitcoin is not for you, because short term investment can lead to loss instead of profit.
Maybe they get panic its because they still don't understand on what they are doing.
Long term holding is serious commitment that's why people need to understand the risk first on what they are doing and then prepare to have good cash flow to spend since this is important if they want to engage with Bitcoin since if they have sustainable income and could have lots of discretionary income to spend then provably that their chance to succeed is high and they can ignore those any potential threats that will just disturb them.
They are just one step to get broke if they engage on short term investment and there's good chance that they lose their money on recent massive liquidation happened recently read this one
https://cryptonews.com/news/over-1b-liquidated-in-24-hours-as-bitcoin-crashes-3-percent-worst-day-june-whats-happening/ That's why its better to be a holder rather than joining those people got panic and liquidated by sudden market shift.
Of course, guys get liquidated when they are playing around with leverage or margin, and guys who are just regularly buying bitcoin do not get liquidated, unless they liquidate themselves by selling. Many times if we are just ongoingly buying bitcoin for 4 years and beyond, then by the time we get to 4 years investing, then our cost per BTC is likely at some price point similar to the 200-WMA.. which would be a good place to be. .and yeah, we still might want to continue to buy regularly in the event that we do not have enough bitcoin or more than enough bitcoin.
There is no doubt that making Bitcoin investments with the DCA method consistently over a long period of time is likely to generate a lot of profit, especially for the next 4 years.
will not be liquidated if we are consistent with the plan that we have set from the beginning, but the problem faced is the difficulty in maintaining consistency in what we do because of the many reasons, both falling market prices causing panic or real-life problems that prevent us from being able to continue to consistently make Bitcoin purchases regularly, the rest is nothing, if we can be consistent then I am quite sure there will be quite a lot of profit that we can get in the future.
It's good that any new investor which make proper plan by figuring out how much of his discretionary income that he will use to invest into bitcoin without stressing his finance so that he can use that amount to constantly buy bitcoin every week/month regularly for 4-10 years and above with DCA. This will prevent you from selling your bitcoin too early and hodli for long because you wouldn't bother about what is happening in the market. It will also prevent you from panic to the point of you selling your bitcoin.
Also, when you have started your bitcoin investment, it's good that you set up an emergency funds of at least three months of your income to take care of real emergency that will play out during your accumulation stage so that you don't use sell your bitcoin for real life emergency sake. Cash inflow management is good because it will make you do things the right way. If you don't set up an emergency funds when investing into bitcoin or you use more than your discretionary income to invest into bitcoin is when you will panic and sell at loss.
Discipline and patience also plays a major role in a long-term bitcoin investment.
