The main idea of indexing is to have a constant investment program regardless of the market.
Nevertheless, STI ETF will just have swimmed along with the market's conditions. In fact it represents the market.
Therefore even if i index ETF, i will consider "Timing"(aka averaging) too.
But how to average--like value pyramid down or value pyramid up?
For me (only for me) i think, about every 5 to 10 % STI down, i will value pyramid down.
Never index before.
May want to do it because of no HC anymore.
WB:-

1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.

Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.

NB:-
My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.
