I am and that's the good thing about it. You have no limits, how low or high you are going to buy. No one gives you an amount on how much you should buy because we're doing it out of our free will and availability of our pockets. If we can buy at the dip, it's also a good one but being consistent in DCA, it will take you to the mountains and you'd see how effective it is when you're about to sell at the right time. But, are you going to sell when that comes? maybe half yes and no.
That’s the beauty of DCA, it’s flexible and personal. You are  not forced to meet any fixed amount or timing. Whether it’s a dip or not, what matters is the habit of showing up regularly and buying within your means. Over time, that steady effort compounds, and you will  be surprised how strong your position becomes.

As for selling, it is always a tough call. Some might choose to take profits, others may hold longer. But the key thing is you will have options. And having that control is what makes the journey worth it.
Yes, we will have options by the time that we want to sell and it will be up to us if we'll still gonna continue to hold it or just sell some for the profits.
It is everyone's dilemma if it's about that. We'll have that moment that we're going to pressure ourselves into selling or by just doing nothing.
Everyone who decided to take profit because that's what they think is the right thing to do should have no regret.
Because that makes them think if they haven't sold and waited for the higher price. On the other hand, if the price goes down, they're happy that they've sold earlier.
