Good time to increase investment?

The market is going down now and usually I DCA into investments about $1000 monthly but I’ve been thinking since its going down, is it wise to double the amount ($2000) until the market is going up and I’ll invest my usual $1000 monthly again? Of course the increased budget is from my spare cash monthly and not borrowed.

and if you look around this is actually when value investors are coming out of hibernating and start hunting

Hunting season is on , cheers!​​​
