For a retirement portfolio I'd likely stop buying and save cash for a correction and start buying after a significant decline/crash.

In doing so you lower your average buying price and have cash on hand if you need it.

Problem with that approach is when the market does recover those gains can come quickly. Missing out on just a few days can cut your returns in half.

Better to stay in the market and keep rebalancing your portfolio. That way your 100% invested at the bottom.
