That 83k from last Thursday is now down about 10% in unrealized losses.
To be honest, when I saw 75k, my stomach still lurched.
In the fourth year of DCA, the expected reactions are all still there.
But I didn’t make a move. Not because my discipline is that strong—it's a habit forced by real money. In 2019 I manually averaged down, got more and more panicked, and then cut near the lowest point. Later I switched to mechanical DCA, and I could actually sleep.
It’s not true that a drop doesn’t hurt. It does hurt—but staying put is real.
When was the last time you thought about cutting?
