In any case I am just trying to help people limit their downside by giving some simple advice. It's always better to make less money and yet be able to sleep well, then always fearing your portfolio goes to naught with some naive strategy. Not worth shortening your life by a few years with all that underlying anxiety just to make a potential 10-20% more. But definitely I would say this strategy would at least increase your upside and minimize your downside than a pure DCA, because it factors in the psychology of a bear market. Just trying to help here, I stand no gains, just don't like to see people losing their minds and sleep over losses that could have been avoided.
