like for me I use part of my discretionary income to invest in Bitcoin and then hold some part of discretionary income I usually use it for some things I love going to a bar or going to cinema to see a movie with my girlfriend and some fun things I do also.

Of course your bitcoin investment is not supposed to deprive you from having fun as having fun is also a way of life so yeah, having fun is also necessary. but the only thing there is if you have been making a budget of $200  or more  that's depending on the level of your income,  but once you start the accumulation journey then you have to make some adjustments because I can't prioritize fun over my bitcoin investment reason been that I still have dreams to chase so therefore I can decide to pay less attention to the fun and still concentrate in stacking until I finally succeeded in achieving my Investment target. I think that's when the fun will be worth enjoying than when I haven't achieve any of my investment target, though this is a personal decision just as you said earlier but while having fun you also need to remember that you still have dreams to Chase.

You are absolutely right, investing in Bitcoin should never be compared to greed.
Investing is saving for the future and some people may consider investing as greed due to lack of proper information.

We should try to gain more knowledge about Bitcoin and be interested in investing for our financial well-being.
Basically, make use of both opportunity and age because if we do not invest now despite the opportunity, we will have nothing to do but regret it at the end of our lives.

So starting investing now will be profitable. For the future

Investing could be greed if you are overdoing it, and you are making mistakes that involve being overly aggressive and not taking proper preparations with your cashflow management and/or your back up funds... including investing beyond your discretionary income.

Let’s be real, Sometimes “investing” isn’t strategy, it’s it could be greed in disguise. Here’s how you know you’ve crossed the line from smart investor to a greedy gambler, for example; If you’re investing with money meant for rent, food, or emergencies, you’re not investing, you’re hoping luck saves you. Again greed kicks in when you ignore risk tolerance, you’re chasing 100% returns but can’t handle a 10% dip. "putting all your eggs in” sounds cool until the market flips. No diversification, No backup plan, Just pure YOLO. That’s not confidence, that’s greed with a cape. When you’re chasing every pump like it’s your ticket out the trenches, It’s not hustle but FOMO investing as Fast profits fade and Discipline pays. Skipping research because “everyone’s buying it”? Bro, that’s not alpha, that’s autopilot greed.Reinvesting every profit without pausing to review equals burnout waiting to happen. Using debt to “double down” on investments? That’s not bold, that’s borrowing disaster. The moment you forget why you started, freedom, stability, legacy and focus only on more, you’ve turned investing into an addiction and if no gain ever feels enough, If you keep chasing highs just to feel alive, That’s greed whispering, “One more trade.” Real wealth isn’t built by chasing. It’s built by managing risk, respecting money, and knowing when to stop. Discipline should be greater than desire, and Strategy should be greater than greed.

Lastly invest what you can afford to let go, and invest to hold for long term that's the smartest play with Bitcoin because with the trajectory of BTC you would most definitely 😁 smile at the end of the day
let's be realistic here, I do not consider any kind of investment in Bitcoin to be any form of greed, as a matter of fact it takes self discipline and a great deal of integrity for one to invest in Bitcoin which is a legitimate platform and for anyone to even think of someone else's investment as being greedy is somewhat demeaning in my own opinion, perhaps there are so many people out there that have the resources but would rather invest in stuff that are not even as realistic as Bitcoin, some even prefer gambling in casinos which is more greedy and addictive not Bitcoin.

On a normal note, individuals carryout investment with the aim of making profit with either long term, or short term investment, and also considering other essential factors such as, the risk involves, and how to cope with the process if any challenge arises, and not being overwhelmed, here no greed is attached as there is a strategy for the future, but the only way an investor is said to be greed with investing is when he is more focused only in making huge profit without having any potential plans for the future, profit driven and short term investors aiming for a very high gain in return is likely to be greedy.

According to my analysis not all people sell coins it is basically the stop losses which get hits and the market moves further down and then quickly gains momentum back making a large wick.
The incident you mentioned happened and will happen in the future but still many people will be aware and will stop trading while some will continue trading. I have seen many new traders who panicked and sold their Bitcoins after seeing the red candlesticks in the market. Some people watch for some time and when they cannot recover their losses or their losses are too much, they start selling in panic which pushes the market further down. If investors can invest regularly with confidence in Bitcoin and hold Bitcoins for the long term, they will not have to worry after buying Bitcoins, rather they will smile brightly after a long time.

Actually I read some stories on Meta that all his 6 years of hardwork doing DCA on Bitcoin got wasted.



It seems that the writer of this story got pressured on huge market downfall happened recently. Also that lose or liquidation can be avoided if he just hold his Bitcoin amd didn't sell it.

Looking at current situation market is slowly recovering back and for sure he or other people would regret why they sold their Bitcoin.

So instead of getting panic they should buy more and take those dump as best opportunity to get more Bitcoins. Since thinking about panic and do those act like what traders do would result to negative the same as what he experience.

I was just thinking that when there is a very bad news that had a bad impact on the stocksand the crypto does it really mean that people sell so much of the coins that the prices of Bitcoin and altcoins fall like water ? I am talking about the recent dump which liquidated almost everyone who was in future trade.

According to my analysis not all people sell coins it is basically the stop losses which get hits and the market moves further down and then quickly gains momentum back making a large wick.
you sound more like a trader, because you are emphasizing more on trading, but too bad for you because we don't discuss that shit called trade on this thread, trading is very risky and we don't want to have anything to do with it. And secondly you mentioned shitcoins too bad for you again, because we don't discuss shitcoins here and body is interesting in putting their hard earned money in shitcoins that majority of them out there are pump and dump projects, we only discuss about bitcoin dude, and things related to bitcoin. Thirdly you mentioned stocks and too bad for you again, we don't discuss those shits here, they are centralize and can easily be manipulated by the big whale's who have more shares on those stocks. Dude Discuss Only bitcoin here in other to enjoy the thread and the conversations going on in the thread as well.

In the context the person you quoted above, it's relates to being overly aggressive to the point you're overdoing it and using funds that aren't your discretionary income to invest into Bitcoin and this is a very bad practice to be employed in your buying and holding Bitcoin because it's not sustainable for long and worse case scenario when the need which you should've used those funds for arises you might be forced to tamper with your portfolio to take care of those needs also someone being overly aggressive may not even be building out backup funds since he goes overboard to invest into Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is good for long-term investment and it's great to approach such investment with discretionary income which is the money remaining after taking care of your expenses. The resulting discretionary income should be further split into fractions and spread across investing into Bitcoin and building out backup funds like emergency fund and other variances of backup funds. Maybe he can share it into 50% for Bitcoin investment, 20% for emergency funds and the other 30% for other variances of backup funds and floating cash. It is important to be as aggressive as you can be without overdoing it so your accumulation journey can be sustained for long

In my own perspective, I see short term investment in Bitcoin as Gambling. Anyone that is venturing into Bitcoin for quick profits is a gambler simple. No one has ever predicted the market accurately,it's all luck. Profits driven investors are only interested in the little profits that they will make from selling their Bitcoin investments early than Hodl for the long term. The greed in them have blinded their visions from seeing the brighter paths about Bitcoin and the rewards for Hodl for the long term. Investment in Bitcoin for the long term is highly profitable due to Bitcoin monetary growth in value overtime and it's rebounding nature .

According to my analysis not all people sell coins it is basically the stop losses which get hits and the market moves further down and then quickly gains momentum back making a large wick.
The incident you mentioned happened and will happen in the future but still many people will be aware and will stop trading while some will continue trading. I have seen many new traders who panicked and sold their Bitcoins after seeing the red candlesticks in the market. Some people watch for some time and when they cannot recover their losses or their losses are too much, they start selling in panic which pushes the market further down. If investors can invest regularly with confidence in Bitcoin and hold Bitcoins for the long term, they will not have to worry after buying Bitcoins, rather they will smile brightly after a long time.

Actually I read some stories on Meta that all his 6 years of hardwork doing DCA on Bitcoin got wasted.



It seems that the writer of this story got pressured on huge market downfall happened recently. Also that lose or liquidation can be avoided if he just hold his Bitcoin amd didn't sell it.

Looking at current situation market is slowly recovering back and for sure he or other people would regret why they sold their Bitcoin.

So instead of getting panic they should buy more and take those dump as best opportunity to get more Bitcoins. Since thinking about panic and do those act like what traders do would result to negative the same as what he experience.



Really felt bad for the writer . Just imagine years of accumulating gone just like that and am not sure the writer have gotten to his accumulation goal yet this is quite sad was like the market was after those that leverage their holding . The writer is right There is no guarantee that bitcoin will keep going up nor down , but we all know that it will always fluctuates, but same bitcoin has given countless reasons to know that is going to make history bitcoin is going to surge as it gains more adoption, despite it not having any guarantee doesn’t mean you will look for shortcut to make it worth it, like using leverages. Better to have little than to lose it all .

The best price time to buy a coin is during it's retracement state where it has made a new all time high showing attempts to climb in price then you wait for a retracement and that is the best time to buy a coin.

How do you know that there is going to be a retracement?

There have likely been guys who have been waiting for a retracement since November 2022, and the BTC price has gone pretty much up ever since, so they are kinds of screwed if they don't have enough coin and they had not been buying during that time.


Those who are waiting for Bitcoin's retracement may have missed the opportunity to buy in 2022, and now the market is seeing a small decline, they may miss this decline. Because a person who waits for a decline can never buy. Because they always think that it may decrease further and then they will buy. While they are thinking like this, they see that your market has corrected its own position before investing. An investor never needs to worry about what will happen in the market. An investor should always continue to buy until his portfolio reaches the goal.

Those who wait for a decline are never long-term investors. They are always a business. Because an investor will always love to continue buying.
There is a class of investors who want to invest but they just wait for the market to go down and they will invest in Bitcoin at that time. This is not a bad thing for investors but it is definitely a bad thing for them if they do not invest in Bitcoin. When the market goes up relatively, they think that the market will dump from here so those who wait and when the market goes down a little, they think that since the market has started dumping then the market will dump more and they wait more but the market does not dump as they wish and when the market goes up again they cannot invest and they wait again.

Waiting to invest in Bitcoin is not really a good idea because I think that you can invest in Bitcoin at any time. The more an investor delays in investing, the more he misses the opportunity to gain something good from the investment.

let's be realistic here, I do not consider any kind of investment in Bitcoin to be any form of greed, as a matter of fact it takes self discipline and a great deal of integrity for one to invest in Bitcoin which is a legitimate platform and for anyone to even think of someone else's investment as being greedy is somewhat demeaning in my own opinion, perhaps there are so many people out there that have the resources but would rather invest in stuff that are not even as realistic as Bitcoin, some even prefer gambling in casinos which is more greedy and addictive not Bitcoin.

Yep, you know i have search  around bitcoin investment to see if there is any area that a guy can be term for being greedy but no idea. So I have come to conclusion that there is nothing like greed in bitcoin investment, so long as bitcoin investment is not mandatory.
Let me correct this impression. Greed exists in bitcoin investment and it happens just like in every other areas of human investments. When an investor invests in bitcoin with a sole purpose of making a huge gains in a very short term period, he does it out of greed. Greed occurs and it's the major reason behind bitcoin gambling where a bitcoin trader pushes himself beyond what he can do financially and focus more on profit instead of HODLing ability. Greed leads to disappointment when your intentions are not met. Anyone who is intentional about long term holding of bitcoin would not suffer some levels of disappointment in bitcoin. Take for instance holding your bitcoin for the 4 to 10 years initial holding target. Such people wouldn't have lost any money in the last drastic drop that happened days ago because 4 years ago, bitcoin was as cheap as anything and anyone who had acquired bitcoin by then would still be in profit.

Greed is the reason behind borrowing money to invest in bitcoin and also selling off your property to invest in bitcoin whereas it should be done strictly with discretionary income. Greed is the cause of FOMO and consequent panic selling.


Just like you said earlier that there are some folks out there who prefer to engage themselves into other things instead of bitcoin even if it's the least Investment or business they wouldn't mind, because they feel that the risk in bitcoin investment is very big for them to persevere. Which they can't be forced to do that and we can't even say that they're greedy because they're doing what they think is best for them, so whoever you see investing into bitcoin really deserve an award because is not easy to coop considering the higher volatility yet guys don't feel panic instead they keep staying more stronger so there's nothing like greed here moreover I think they need to be encore some respect no matter how small thier weekly purchase is.
The risk emphasis you are talking about here still boils down to bitcoin traders here. Even though no one is sure about what happens to bitcoin next, but the risk associated to long-term holding of bitcoin is very minimal and almost insignificant. For the  16years of bitcoin existence it has proven to be consistently improved after every bitcoin cycle that happens approximately after every 4 years. Records and history may not be perfect in the future but history is a light unto the future. Below is the bitcoin price chart so far;




Source

As a beginner in bitcoin investment, records are the only basic facts available and the records available has made us to believe in bitcoin of which anyone is entitled to whatever view he decides to see about bitcoin. But Bitcoin would stand the taste of time for every disciplined investor.

[Edited out]
In the context the person you quoted above, it's relates to being overly aggressive to the point you're overdoing it and using funds that aren't your discretionary income to invest into Bitcoin and this is a very bad practice to be employed in your buying and holding Bitcoin because it's not sustainable for long and worse case scenario when the need which you should've used those funds for arises you might be forced to tamper with your portfolio to take care of those needs also someone being overly aggressive may not even be building out backup funds since he goes overboard to invest into Bitcoin.
Being overly aggressive in bitcoin investment is not a good approach to bitcoin accumulation due to many reasons ranging from inability to hold a certain amount of aggressively stacked income for a very long period of time to investing beyond your financial capacity. This is not characteristic of a real investor and tilts towards a bitcoin trader whose FOMO has led into overly accumulating bitcoin aggressively due to his personal suspicion about the near future when he would eventually sell. Any form of investment that does not allow you the liberty to take your mind out of your bitcoin stash for at least 4 to 10 years time is not a healthy investment strategy. The sharpest drop in bitcoin in 24hours just occurred few days ago setting everywhere in panic (among the gamblers and short term Investors). This is not supposed to be no matter how the market behaves.

The record loss of over $19 billion which was recorded must have happened basically due to panic sellers especially among the gamblers. Bitcoin doesn't depend on anyone or any body's opinion. Panic sellers lost so much days ago when bitcoin snapped from $125k to $102k. They couldn't withstand it anymore and many sold theirs of which we all can see that it's already on the rise back up.

Bitcoin is good for long-term investment and it's great to approach such investment with discretionary income which is the money remaining after taking care of your expenses. The resulting discretionary income should be further split into fractions and spread across investing into Bitcoin and building out backup funds like emergency fund and other variances of backup funds.
The emphasis when it comes to bitcoin investment remains the discretionary income and that still remains the safest way to succeed in bitcoin investment. This is because of it's workability and stress-free nature. Discretionary income can help you maintain a long term HODLing no matter how the market behaves and keeps your mind off the chart. I personally didn't notice the snap from $125k to $102k until when it has risen back to $113k which I only realised through the news because I was kind of busy since few days ago. When I returned to read the news I felt for bitcoin gamblers and some people that invest beyond their discretionary income.

Another thing I would say is that investors should learn to understand that bitcoin investment is not a basic source of income . It is called an investment which implies that you already have something you depends on and only want to plan for the future through investing in bitcoin. So we have to take out the Idea of taking profits and gambling bitcoin daily. Anyone who has such mindset would not grow and instead of making profit, he has a higher potential to loss cumulatively.

Maybe he can share it into 50% for Bitcoin investment, 20% for emergency funds and the other 30% for other variances of backup funds and floating cash. It is important to be as aggressive as you can be without overdoing it so your accumulation journey can be sustained for long
Your discretionary income sharing formula into bitcoin investment, emergency funds and back up funds should solely depend on your stage of bitcoin accumulation. As a beginner, it would be better to concentrate more funds in your emergency funds than bitcoin investment until you have established a responsive emergency funds. Let's say as a beginner, you could spread your Discretionary income as this; 40% for emergency funds, 35% for bitcoin investment and 25% for backup funds. This would continue until you have accumulated at least 3 months of your basic income in your emergency funds then you can adjust your sharing formula to (Probably); 50% Bitcoin investment, 25% for emergency funds and 25% for backup funds. If accumulation continues over a long period of time that your emergency funds keep growing without any occurrence that would warrant spending all or part of your emergency funds, then you can even temporarily suspend allocating any more funds into emergency funds and possibly become more aggressive by improving your DCA allocation and better still creating some reserved funds too all aiming at increased aggressive buys periodically.

In a properly regulated investment process, all things fall in place effortlessly, buying by DCA, becoming aggressive and improving your aggressiveness too. A good investor can do all these without getting financially stressed out because he has a good Cashflow management skills which is very basic for the success of every one coming into bitcoin investment.
According to my analysis not all people sell coins it is basically the stop losses which get hits and the market moves further down and then quickly gains momentum back making a large wick.
The incident you mentioned happened and will happen in the future but still many people will be aware and will stop trading while some will continue trading. I have seen many new traders who panicked and sold their Bitcoins after seeing the red candlesticks in the market. Some people watch for some time and when they cannot recover their losses or their losses are too much, they start selling in panic which pushes the market further down. If investors can invest regularly with confidence in Bitcoin and hold Bitcoins for the long term, they will not have to worry after buying Bitcoins, rather they will smile brightly after a long time.

Actually I read some stories on Meta that all his 6 years of hardwork doing DCA on Bitcoin got wasted.



It seems that the writer of this story got pressured on huge market downfall happened recently. Also that lose or liquidation can be avoided if he just hold his Bitcoin amd didn't sell it.

Looking at current situation market is slowly recovering back and for sure he or other people would regret why they sold their Bitcoin.

So instead of getting panic they should buy more and take those dump as best opportunity to get more Bitcoins. Since thinking about panic and do those act like what traders do would result to negative the same as what he experience.


The truth is that bitcoin gambling is such a big risk of which anyone who doesn't have the mind would stand the chance to develop BP in the process. This is what happens most times among the bitcoin community.

I like where he made emphasis on his story helping the community because there are still many doubting Thomases who would assume that he wasn't wise enough and that was why he lost all he has got over a 6 years sweat. Bitcoin volatility is real and could be devastating. No one would expect what happened few days but Bitcoin HODLers wouldn't panic, they only watch and wait. So I hope everyone will learn from his experience and invest basically what you can afford to HODL at all time and also learn to fight off FOMO which could lure you into making some grievous mistakes you will regret later.

Such class of investors mostly never get to invest in bitcoin or even when they have had initial investment, the never get to buy again and end up selling without buying back. Most of those set of investors are actually bitcoin traders that claim to be investors. Any real bitcoin investor who trusts in the future will buy regularly as long as he has his discretionary income no matter how small. An investor may decide to keep a reserved funds aside in case of dips for more aggressive accumulation, but it does not hinder him from buying by DCA regularly which allows him not to miss opportunities due to volatility. Bitcoin is too volatile to be monitored and anyone who concentrate on the chart may never invest in bitcoin.

For instance, some of these your set of investors who have waited for dips almost all their days never caught up with the last drastic dip to $102k due to various reasons basically due to the fact that bitcoin didn't spend time in the dip. When such person misses such dip,  he might get discouraged or decide to stay off completely. A person who waits for dip is not yet ready to invest in bitcoin and may never invest in bitcoin.

I was just thinking that when there is a very bad news that had a bad impact on the stocks and the crypto does it really mean that people sell so much of the coins that the prices of Bitcoin and altcoins fall like water ? I am talking about the recent dump which liquidated almost everyone who was in future trade.

According to my analysis not all people sell coins it is basically the stop losses which get hits and the market moves further down and then quickly gains momentum back making a large wick.
I guess it was market being manipulated. Actually swept a lot of liquidity from the market , the dumb was that massive , leading to some loss of lives due to folk losing their money through liquidation. Many that got liquidated in the process didn’t not make use of stop loss I will say most of them cause some folk prefer to hold for longterm with leverage just to get a better return. And bitcoin is still fully bullish now we will see more of up after it beat the recent supports
I have carefully looked at the risk involved in trading and came up with the conclusion that it is not necessary to take such high risk when I can achieve the same result by just holding our Bitcoins in our private wallets. To me I chose the part that will give me peace of mind, and will not make me worry about what Donald Trump want to do with China or Russia. Funny enough, those traders that have not committed suicide, who were made poor by Trump's tweet will see the market recover and hit the target they aimed for but then they are liquidated and rendered poor. I will still insist that buying for the long term is the way to go because the advantages just outweigh anything we might fear about long term investment.

As with many market corrections in bitcoin, those who end up doing the worst are those who are either trying to trade bitcoin or leverage bitcoin, and also those who are screwing around with shitcoins can get themselves in trouble, including that they may well end up putting their value in questionable locations, so they end up getting wiped out.

Guys who are holding their own bitcoin do end up suffering some short term volatility and perhaps even sometimes devolving into extended downward corrections, yet at the same time, they still have their coins and they likely can accumulate more upon such corrections or just hold through the whole situation adn still end up being better off at some later point down the road.

Largely the price of bitcoin in the past 24 hours has been right around the same price that it was at the end of September, so it should be difficult to be getting  upset even though there was an extreme up and an extreme down.. that largely brought us back to the same place we were at the beginning of the month (a mere 2 weeks ago).

1) Self-Custody is a right.  Resist being labelled as: "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

Yes sir, those who are more worried about this volatility of Bitcoin are those who are investing in the short term or those who are trading. I think that those who are trading are ruining the beauty of Bitcoin. Because 100% of people trade, out of them 2% can be successful and the rest fail and when they lose all their money while trading, many people blame Bitcoin. But if they had held it for a long time, then maybe they would not have been subjected to such a situation.

Sir, it seems to me that we may be in the middle of the situation of previous years. The reason for saying this is that when in these two years 2023 and 2024, the volatility of Bitcoin was much higher in October and November as it is now. But this month it has created a new ATH again. If that happens, it is not possible to say what will happen in the future. But if it repeats like in previous years, then maybe we will see a new ATH of Bitcoin very soon.

Additionally, buying during periods of low trading volume can also be advantageous. Low trading volume typically results in less price volatility, making it a more stable time to make your purchase. Overall, the key is to buy when the market is down and sell when it's up

Exactly, Every time Bitcoin sneezes, traders catch pneumonia. 😂 People forget this game rewards patience, not panic. If you’re trying to “outsmart” Bitcoin with 100x leverage on some sketchy exchange, congratulations, you’re basically gambling with turbo mode on. Those who keep their Bitcoin safe in self-custody wallets might occasionally cry into their coffee when prices dip, but at least they still have their coins. The rest? They’re out there refreshing charts, praying their liquidation notice got lost in the blockchain. Funny thing is, Bitcoin can dance up and down all week, only to end up exactly where it started. Traders lose sleep, traders lose hair, and traders lose money, meanwhile, the HODLers just lose track of time. The lesson is to Stop babysitting the charts. Don’t romance every altcoin that promises “the next BTC.” Most of them are like relationships that look cute on Telegram but vanish at first red candle. Hold your coins, secure your keys, and touch grass once in a while. Because at the end of the day, the guy who didn’t panic-sell, didn’t overtrade, and didn’t fall for “next Bitcoin” coins is the one laughing when every one else is re-downloading trust wallet. 😎

When the market goes up relatively, they think that the market will dump from here so those who wait and when the market goes down a little, they think that since the market has started dumping then the market will dump more and they wait more but the market does not dump as they wish and when the market goes up again they cannot invest and they wait again.

Waiting to invest in Bitcoin is not really a good idea because I think that you can invest in Bitcoin at any time. The more an investor delays in investing, the more he misses the opportunity to gain something good from the investment.

I think there is nothing wrong if a good investor happened to wait for Small dump or dip in the market but where the wrong may occur about the investor is when is been greedy  because I see greed and emotion as major problem that can kill such investor because it will run out of target, for me the market is best provided the DCA is of knowledge to the investor nothing should stop such investor of accumulating what it can afford at that moment and when it dip too he accumulate accordingly to because any thoughts of waiting for greatest dip may be a mere dream probably it will be that such investor expectations will be cut short and the money can't afford the desire because some opportunities has be let go while waiting, that may result unsettled mindset where conclusion of when to take the actual decision to invest may be difficult for the investor, knowledge is very important, it's even unwise for investor who may have the mindset to accumulate to think of greatest dip before entering the market to accumulate provided the investor lack what it takes to lump sum, waiting for dip any time any will drain the investor not achieving it's dream because it statistics figure he may expect the dip to hit may not be reached therefore breaching the investor dream, in my opinion the best is anytime and moment one has what it takes to accumulate is enough without waiting dip.
Additionally, buying during periods of low trading volume can also be advantageous. Low trading volume typically results in less price volatility, making it a more stable time to make your purchase. Overall, the key is to buy when the market is down and sell when it's up

Is obvious that you are a trader mind you is a Bitcoin discussion thread and not some trading kind of thread you can go to the trading discussion board to layout this your emphasis, who told you that the key is to buy when the market is down and sell when it is up? You are only being deceived perhaps you don't really know that potential of Bitcoin accumulation regardless of the market conditions, don't mislead other newbies, trading is so complicated and complex with lots of emotional traumatization and devastations, for investors the key is to buy any time they have their discretionary income available without considering if the market is low or not, with DCA accumulation strategy you will be save from the stress of trying to time the market before buying Bitcoin.

the key is to buy when the market is down and sell when it's up
NO that's not key the key is to accumulate continuously and hodl for long and not to accumulate only when the market is down and sell when it it's up it is traders who does this and not an investor.
I see that you are new to the forum and also don't know the right way to make a good Bitcoin investment if you must get started never delay to accumulate Bitcoin when price is low you can accumulate regularly, consistently and persistently using the DCA strategy which enables you to accumulate Bitcoin weekly or monthly and hodl for 4-10+ and then can sell small portion of your Bitcoin holding when you have reached out to your accumulation phase and still stacking up some Bitcoin when you feel.

I was just thinking that when there is a very bad news that had a bad impact on the stocks and the crypto does it really mean that people sell so much of the coins that the prices of Bitcoin and altcoins fall like water ? I am talking about the recent dump which liquidated almost everyone who was in future trade.

According to my analysis not all people sell coins it is basically the stop losses which get hits and the market moves further down and then quickly gains momentum back making a large wick.
I guess it was market being manipulated. Actually swept a lot of liquidity from the market , the dumb was that massive , leading to some loss of lives due to folk losing their money through liquidation. Many that got liquidated in the process didn’t not make use of stop loss I will say most of them cause some folk prefer to hold for longterm with leverage just to get a better return. And bitcoin is still fully bullish now we will see more of up after it beat the recent supports
I have carefully looked at the risk involved in trading and came up with the conclusion that it is not necessary to take such high risk when I can achieve the same result by just holding our Bitcoins in our private wallets. To me I chose the part that will give me peace of mind, and will not make me worry about what Donald Trump want to do with China or Russia. Funny enough, those traders that have not committed suicide, who were made poor by Trump's tweet will see the market recover and hit the target they aimed for but then they are liquidated and rendered poor. I will still insist that buying for the long term is the way to go because the advantages just outweigh anything we might fear about long term investment.

As with many market corrections in bitcoin, those who end up doing the worst are those who are either trying to trade bitcoin or leverage bitcoin, and also those who are screwing around with shitcoins can get themselves in trouble, including that they may well end up putting their value in questionable locations, so they end up getting wiped out.

Guys who are holding their own bitcoin do end up suffering some short term volatility and perhaps even sometimes devolving into extended downward corrections, yet at the same time, they still have their coins and they likely can accumulate more upon such corrections or just hold through the whole situation adn still end up being better off at some later point down the road.

Largely the price of bitcoin in the past 24 hours has been right around the same price that it was at the end of September, so it should be difficult to be getting  upset even though there was an extreme up and an extreme down.. that largely brought us back to the same place we were at the beginning of the month (a mere 2 weeks ago).
I must say that you’ve made quite a very solid observation that reflects something that keeps repeating amongst investors every single cycle in the history of Bitcoin. Those who are always in fond of attempting to always outsmart the market through leverage, excessive trading or even filling their bags with all divers types of shitcoins are often the same folks who usually end up in the most compromising positions during market corrections. These kind of strategies are only bound to be effective for only for a little time, usually because the approach is mostly backed by a short term plan and so depend on short term luck and not long term conviction. When the market becomes very volatile, traders who depend on leverage gets liquidated, and even folks who are holding shitcoins often realize at that point that their so called project is just not as resilient as they actually thought they were.

If you also consider it on the other hand, folks who only put their focus on buying and holding their coins for the long term, often tend to come out stronger than others over time. Yeah, they do have to sit around the ups and downs of the market and watch their portfolio fluctuate, but even if the value of the coin might change drastically, they still have the same number of coins, and those who have studied or known about the history of Bitcoin would know that Bitcoin mostly rewards those who are patient. That’s why every DIP and every correction the matter experiences should be considered as another opportunity for true investors, either to ride it out till the market bounces back or another opportunity to accumulate more coins.

I also love the point you made the current price movement. I know a lot of people are feeling a lot of pressure by the recent price drop, but if you really zoom out, you’d be able to see vividly that the recent price volatility doesn’t really make much of a difference or change much,  where the price is currently at now is roughly where it was at around the end of September, and yet a lot of naive folks who only expect the price of Bitcoin to only be on a green are panicking seriously over these small short term declines, forgetting to see how very little this decline actually affects the market when you decide to look at it on longer time frame. If not for anything, this type of market correction often helps to shake out the weak hands and reset the market for this who are ready for the next leg up.

People who are only investing in bitcoin for the long term are the once meant to be called investors, right now that their is a so much anticipated dip in the price of bitcoin most people would definitely take the opportunity of buying more bitcoin because they are excited about the dip and it’s an opportunity for them, but their are also people who are investing in bitcoin that wouldn’t have an opportunity of buying the dip, because they already bought bitcoin before the unprecedented dip, bitcoin is always volatile and it’s very hard to predict the price of bitcoin, which is why many people wouldn’t have the opportunity of buying through the dip.

However people who have different cashflow and people who also have other financial flexibility would definitely know how to keep money aside for taking the opportunity of buying a dip, but right now people who do not have a so much grate income to discretionary, would rather prefer buying little by little through the DCA.
The easiest strategy to invest in Bitcoin is to buy Bitcoin with the money that have after spending on essentials. Experienced investors should make good use of all the strategies for Bitcoin accumulation because the strategies have been developed depending on the market situation. All strategies can be used when needed, and only the strategy that is needed can be used. I think it is best if someone uses both strategies. For example: doing DCA regularly and keeping some cash in reserve, so that if there is a big dip like this time that can buy more. If anyone have extra money in hand, their should not neglect any opportunity. Because it also involves long-term stacking, and anyone can also profit from market volatility.
I don't understand what you mean by the bold words and the last time I checked that is not a strategy, there are only three (3) strategies to invest in Bitcoin which are the Dollar cost averaging (DCA method), Buy dip and Hodl and lastly the lump sum method or stretagy. DCA method was not develop because of any market situation because the DCA method can be use at any given price or value of the market and as such it is the best strategy so far when it comes to Bitcoin investment because it has help a lot of people without strong or good financial strength to still scale through.
I think what he’s trying to say In the very sentence you bolded was that people should always invest with their discretionary income, I.e the amount left with you after you might have sorted out your other major primary financial obligations including payment of your utilities and other bills etc. and of course, such strategy when applied to our bitcoin investment helps to mitigate the risk involved with the volatility of bitcoin. Almost certainly goes in line with the DCA method of accumulation and investment in bitcoin
Absolutely, I agree with your opinion, investing only from discretionary income is indeed a wise move, By ensuring that basic needs and other financial obligations are met first, we can be calmer in facing market fluctuations, especially like a few days ago when the market experienced a very sharp decline, however, I think if we have big desires in the future then we must get out of our comfort zone to seek greater income to invest.

Is obvious that you are a trader mind you is a Bitcoin discussion thread and not some trading kind of thread you can go to the trading discussion board to layout this your emphasis, who told you that the key is to buy when the market is down and sell when it is up? You are only being deceived perhaps you don't really know that potential of Bitcoin accumulation regardless of the market conditions, don't mislead other newbies, trading is so complicated and complex with lots of emotional traumatization and devastations, for investors the key is to buy any time they have their discretionary income available without considering if the market is low or not, with DCA accumulation strategy you will be save from the stress of trying to time the market before buying Bitcoin.
Buying when the market is done on its own is not a bad approach to bitcoin investment, it's is buying the DIP as long as you don't wait for it then it's a good play, but selling when the price goes back up is what constitutes a trader mentality and should not be encouraged, people should be informed on the difference between investing and trading in relation to bitcoin and they should know that in order to make anything of of bitcoin you need to be a long term investor.
Additionally, buying during periods of low trading volume can also be advantageous. Low trading volume typically results in less price volatility, making it a more stable time to make your purchase.
One thing we should know is that no matter how obvious it is that bitcoin trading will lead to a loss there will always be people who are still going to do it out of greed and excessive trading is one of the cause of bitcoin price volatility so buying during low trading volumes can be advantageous but to very little significance if an investor is already investing with the DCA, DCA investors are not concerned with the changes in bitcoin price, their deal is just to keep accumulating at a steady rate regardless of price fluctuations.
