One of the reasons that I frequently suggest that if guys get lump sum amounts that come available to them, then they should at least consider the three different ways of buying bitcoin with the amount that they authorize to buy bitcoin: 1) buying right away, 2) defer by time (DCA) and/or 3) buy dips that might not happen.
The buy dip portion of the lump sum can come in handy for who consider that buying a bunch of bitcoin at a set price is risky, so then they save some portion of that lump sum for buying dips that may or may not end up happening, and if some form of dip ended up happening, then their buy the dip amounts are triggered, and if the dips do not end up happening, then the BTC price ended up going up and they still profit from whatever lump sum portion that they had put into bitcoin with the lump sum amount that they ended up having and allocating towards buying right away. Accordingly, both DCA and lump sum end up serving as a hedge to the portion that was bought right away, and the buying on the dip portion is specifically tailored towards specifically buying with the allocated amount in the event that the BTC price dropped after the portion of the lump sum had been used to buy right away.
You are right and all these methods are easily to practice with calculations, if the new investors sticks to it for long-term period and be consistent with it, they would be a yield results. From my one understanding, if you have $18k lump some for bitcoin, I don't like idea's of going all time in at once, but splitting it different wats,like
Furstly, i begin with $9k now just to secure a good position at early stage of the investment, without any exposure. Secondly, I still begin my DCAing with like $5k and splitting them into 10 places for 10 weeks which is about$500. Then if the market actually goes up, I may averagingly nice. Then thirdly, buying the dips with like $4k reserve for only dips, then if I may set the orders at the rate from the current bitcoin prices, like -15% and also-25%.
However if Bitcoin mature to like $120k and not drops, which is not certain. My first stage is ok.
Also, if bitcoin price slice for like 3months, yhe second stage must get me an effective average.
Then. If the bitcoin price actually crashes down to maybe like $85k, the third stage let you buy fear while others get panic
