Many people DCA during bear markets when prices are low and fear is high. But with current prices climbing and sentiment shifting toward greed, is it still wise to keep averaging in at regular intervals?
That's not DCA, but buy the dip.

DCA is a strategy where you accumulate an asset with regular interval without looking at the price. If you waiting for the price to down/bearish season, you're trying to buy at the lowest, which is no longer DCA.

To answer your question, it's up to you, if you not able to commit with DCA then that's fine.
Yeah, true that. A lot of people (myself included sometimes) confuse DCA with buying the dip. Real DCA is staying consistent no matter the price, not trying to time the market.

Appreciate you pointing that out , it's a good reminder to stick to the actual plan and not let emotions take over. Consistency really is the key in this space.
