Don't try to catch the overall bottom.  Just catch a lot of little bottoms.

No. It will likely bounce back down again.

The bottom for Bitcoin, probably.

But the good news is you did not miss the bottom of your favorite fiat currency, for it has no bottom.

Even if you catch the bottom, how many coins can you buy? It's bottom because no one would sell it at that lower price, see?

Getting in at the price that you can handle and buy some coins, which amount will not hurt you.

Well I'd link to some good 80s french porn like, say, Dans la Chaleur de St. Tropez, but clearly I'd be persecuted by the amish mafia on this forum.

I'd say, now is the time to sell in small increments, but people usually scoff at you if you try to act rationally.

indeed, I bought between 110$ and 60$ on the way down.

Now I'm selling about half of those coins as we go up (at 76$, 88$, 96$ next target)

And you're making or losing money? Just curious

I am going to infinity thank you. My new favorite fiat printer is Yellen that I need to buy more stuff for Christmas! I am banking on being a trillionare, either with bitcoin or usd! No stopping my investment strategy.  8)

Buy in now and you wouldn't miss anything.

Many think if Bitcoin succeeds, it could eventually reach something like 100k+/coin.  If it ultimately fails, it'll go to zero.

Now with those two binary outcomes in mind, do you think you've "missed the bottom"?

I suspect we'll be at the bottom, relative to the huge upside potential that still exists, for a little longer.  Bitcoin is still very much like the really early days of the internet.  It's all speculation driving the price today.  Practically none of Bitcoin's innovation or potential has be harnessed, or even will be, for perhaps many years.

This is what I do. I buy a large margin position at the bottom of each correction. Then sell most of it and keep the profits in btc.
