Anyhow, your last sentence seems to be referring to absolutes and blacks and whites and seem to be referring to a prediction of a future that has NOT yet occurred and your description of such future seems a little crazy from my perspective at the moment.

It's not a prediction, it's a mental attitude. All my high risks investments are totally worthless.

Until I come to the point where I start recalculating the value, most times...

...to make it worthless for another round.

So you seem to be suggesting that you are employing a psychological tool to NOT invest more into BTC than you can afford to lose.. and then to NOT overly focus on whether your BTC portfolio is in the black or red.. something like that?

Not exactly but similar.

It is just weekend dump + end of the month.

He's suggesting not to be too much of an optimist so that you can stand a storm psychologically. You know, the 10k by July kind that was bound to disappoint.

High expectations, high disappointment.

Well, you may be correct. One thing is suggesting a strategy that works for yourself, and another thing would be to suggest some strategy for someone else if that someone else was NOT asking for any suggestions.  In my case, my portfolio is quite diversified.. even though BTC currently in the red, I am NOT too worried about it  for a variety of reasons including the diversification of it and also that I am NOT investing beyond my comfort level and also I expect it will go up.. whether in a week or 6 months or a year, I can wait it out.

Surely, higher performance is better, but personally, I feel prepared to psychologically deal with various BTC performance scenarios.

Also, sometimes, as we know, posters may assert rosey ccmf scenarios, but they may be just doing that for fun, and it may NOT necessarily reflect their psychological investment into BTC's price performance,  if any.

It's good that I am in the general ballpark.

No harm meant. I don't want to force you for some strategy. I read here, and sometimes I like to write my thoughts and get input from other people.

What you don't like or is meaningless for you, you can throw away. As with my high risk investments, same for my thoughts here - they are worthless from the beginning and I've no expectation. If they are result in something positive I'm happy. If they result in nothing, it's okay, too ;-)

I think that my point was that I did NOT know whether you were suggesting something for me or NOT... And, I suppose that i attempted to read it as merely a description about your own circumstances - b/c I had already mentioned that I have employed various strategies for myself... ... Anyhow, I do read what other people do and consider whether I need to adjust my strategy or NOT.

they should have titled this "coming soon, a good nights sleep for investors."

The "ber" months are here. Summer sales are over and fall sales begin. Xmas ads are around the corner. Bitcoin is on sale. They may be the hottest thing this holiday season.

We need an "All I want for Christmas is Bitcoin" meme.
