i really confuse with all the statement about DCA this few days.
too many comments and too many opinions.
even if someone is practicing DCA in proven fund for more than 5 years (eg. Kenanga, CIMB Dali...), its not wrong to topup your investment when market is down. It sure will rise again surpassing the current NAV. Please correct me if i am wrong?
DCA is simple. You topup when every month without regardless if market condition.
The modified version which one can use is
Topup lesser when market is up. Why do you want to topup more when market is expensive? Then use the amount you save to topup more when market is down.
Market down is good time to topup more rather than when market going up.
For me, I don't topup when market is going up and up. Again why should I topup? So that FOMO? No thank you. Opportunity is comes. When market start going down, that's when I start to look and see if topup is worth it. If just fall 1-2%, just let it go. Again I said I look. Not topup. I set myself a range when I will start topping g up.
