Generally ā€œtime in the marketā€ means you invest in the market regularly and build over a long period of time i.e. donā€™t buy and sell excessively.

Lump sum or DCA depends on your investment strategy and also factoring costs of the trading platform. DCA is to average out the cost and price of the investment. Lump sum can be useful to take advantage of unforeseen events like COVID. Doesnā€™t mean it has to be either or.

Have to be in the market to enjoy the market.
