Buy Buy Buy or Sell Sell Sell?

If you ask me, trying to use or merge all three strategies at once because you have the financial ability might lead to lack of concentration and a clear vision of the direction of your investment. I like to say that there is power in consistency.

Uniting all the strategy on your investment will not stop your concentration in one because money is what speaks the possibility of it, as those strategies are different that is how they also been use differently, it doesn't mean you will be using all of them as a DCA so there is a time for each of them to be use but DCA is been more time specifically defined than when you use buy in dip because you can decide for every five days to buy Bitcoin but you might not say it in buying at dip because is only when you see dip your targets for it will be explored but DCA is an irreplaceable strategy for me.

and regarding investing using emergency funds or taking loans i would clearly say no. because the market does not understand your plans. it does not understand emotions either. today there may be profit tomorrow there could be a big loss anything is possible. if you do not have cash in hand during emergencies or you are under debt pressure. then even a good investment can turn into a curse for you. moving slowly understanding your limits and controlling greed are what bring better results in the long run. in my experience this is the most realistic truth.

Using your emergency funds to invest, it's a clear capital NO!, because emergency situations that will erupt and you fail to handle because you have used it for investment will put your investment in risk and possibly unprepared sells and sometimes in loss.

For loan, it's No if your means of repayment is dependent on the profit that will be made from the same investment, Nope. But it can be considered if you have another sure means and plans of repayment, either from your other business or work or something else. If that's your plan, then borrowing sometimes can be allowed since it will help you front load your investment. Bitcoin price is never steady and the next price in the next minute is not assured, so whatever is to be done should be considered both ways to ensure you dont screw up things for yourself and investment

the most important things in investing are clear thinking and patience. there is no problem in knowing or understanding multiple strategies but in practice you should use one strategy at a time. every strategy has a different purpose and a different time to be used. buying the dip depends on opportunity because you can never know in advance when the price will fall. but with dca you buy on a fixed schedule so the mental pressure is much lower. you do not have to constantly change decisions. for me dca is the most realistic and safest strategy because it teaches discipline and helps control greed. moving slowly understanding your limits and following rules bring better results in the long run.

For me personally, using the DCA method feels heavy on the funds I have.

If the DCA strategy seems heavy on your funds, it means that you have not set aside your emergency fund. Or your DCA installment amount is high, weekly or monthly, it is putting pressure on you. That is why it seems heavy to you.
The solution for you is to lighten the DCA. For example:

If you buy weekly, then do it in monthly purchases.
Or if you buy monthly, reduce the amount by some amount, for example, if you buy $ 20 last month, reduce it to $ 15.
This will make your funds no longer feel heavy.

It's possible to trick it with a small investment, but is it worth the results we'll get later?

The important thing about the DCA strategy is to be regular in the market, not to make big ammount. Even if you buy small amounts, you are buying regularly and investing constantly. This will reduce your mental stress and you will be able to continue investing for the long term. It is also important to be stress-free to maintain discipline in long-term investments.
It cannot be called cheating by investing small amounts, but it is better to invest small amounts than not investing at all. You may feel that investing small amounts will make you lag behind. But the reality is, it's just the effect of time.
By investing small amounts, an investor learns a few things:

• to avoid big mistakes,
• consistent in the market staying,
• big investment risks in the future.

If you have a stable income, it's possible to have a discreet income stream at the same time. You can increase your investment amount over time. And this can be an effective way for your long-term investment.

[Derekfunds]

I agree with you to some extent, buying with large amount of money on regular basis is not actually lump summing but rather the person is DCAing because DCAing is purchasing Bitcoin on a steady which can be every week, month or depending but where I disagree with you is where you said buying this way is a big mistake, how do you mean is a big mistake to buy in that manner? See anyone who has the capacity to be using big or large amount to be DCAing there's nothing wrong and it is not stated anywhere that your DCA money must be a little amount. The amount we use in DCAing depends on our capacity if I have that capacity to be accumulating with such amount I will do it as far as it is something I can afford to lose and it is from my discretionary.

I totally understand where you're coming from,  and you're right there's nothing wrong with using a larger amount for (DCA) if you have the means and it fits your risk tolerance. However buying with a larger amount while doing the DCA is not actually bad so long as there's no fixed amount that is set aside for all DCA guys, as a matter of fact we all have different source of income which most guys might have multiple source of income and this can make them to be more aggressive than a guy that only have one source of income so it almost impossible for everyone to accumulate with a certain amount.

Are you trying to say that investors should use huge amount of funds to accumulate bitcoin as a newbies? I know that is not good for newbies to start using this method dollar cost to accumulate bitcoin with huge amount of funds because the price of bitcoin is unpredictable, these are some of the things new investors will consider before using what they can afford to lose in bitcoin, i agree with you that we have different sources of income and the capital of every investors accumulating bitcoin will never be the same, and their income will be different also, For those that use little amount to buy bitcoin and hold, I think this is another opportunity to buy more because the price has decreased for investors to add to their bitcoin to hope for another huge income in the future.

I think you are confused, there's no law or theory of Bitcoin investment that state that a newbie should use a small amount of money to start their dollar cost averaging (DCA) accumulation and if there is any that I'm not aware of maybe you should refer me so I can lsee and also learn because no one is above learning. The fact that someone is a newbie doesn't limit them from using a good amount of money to accumulate Bitcoin using the DCA method. There are some newbie who's parents are wealthy and therm also are very stable financially so you don't expect their discretionary to be less and if there discretionary is huge and they decide to use it there is no problem with that stop making it look like newbies are limited in doing this, they are not provided it is form their discretionary I believe everyone should know their capacity.

[Muba20]

You actually made a very good point here, but in my own opinion the best and the smartest way to accumulate Bitcoin is by using two of the accumulating method to accumulate Bitcoin, and what am trying to say is that is either you are accumulating through the dca accumulating strategy or through the lump sum strategy, then along the line, if their is a dip in the market,

Among the strategies you mentioned, the DCA method is the best and highest quality strategy. By using this DCA method, all investors can be successful, because an investor can use various strategies to bring about his success, among which the DCA strategy plays one of the roles. So, if you use the DCA method in Bitcoin and buy Bitcoin weekly and hold it for a long time, then Bitcoin holding will definitely be successful.

Using DCA reduces risk and it is possible to be successful using this method. But I do not think that using only DCA automatically guarantees success. A person will be successful only when he can maintain a long-term mindset, financial management, financial stability, risk tolerance and regularity in investing in addition to using DCA and DCA will be effective only when one can keep investing actively in the long term. Determine the amount according to your ability on a weekly or monthly basis, which must be additional money after meeting basic and urgent expenses. If there is a financial deficit or financial stress, DCA does not work. DCA is a good strategy but you have to stick to it to ensure success. Only strategy will not bring success.

Yeah, using emergency funds to invest is really not the best idea.. The reason for the money is for real life issues..  Once something urgent comes up and the cash is in Bitcoin investment, it can lead to a lot of panicking and selling yes..

But i think, let’s say your emergency fund is already solid, like 2x or 3x your monthly income already, and a proper dip comes, I will say taking a small part of it, to take advantage of the opportunity make sense.. But you have to be discipline enough to replace it..  And not touching everything, just a little part of it..

[7juju]

You should know that the three strategy can work depending on your plans, remember most investors usually hope to buy the dip but they don't wait for dip to happen before making their purchase rather they keep buying little by little at the same time waiting to buy the dip, this way there will be no regret because they didn't miss any opportunity even when they where waiting for the dip. So if you plan yourself very well there's no way you would be affected by any of this strategy.

If you ask me, trying to use or merge all three strategies at once because you have the financial ability might lead to lack of concentration and a clear vision of the direction of your investment. I like to say that there is power in consistency.

That consistency power should come from you buying bitcoin regularly and not just maintaining one buying method. Buying bitcoin is the main thing that matters. You can explore all three methods of buying bitcoin and still be consistent. Each methods have it's own advantages, so imagine the position of your portfolio if you are combining all three methods. If you are financially capable, it is possible to maintain consistency with all three methods, just know when to deploy them and you are good.

[Nightwatchmare]

In my opinion, all three strategies are good in accumulating Bitcoin however we should not let's our emotions be the basis of investments because the capital is there. If Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) can get you 4 BTC on a normal, during a dip that same DCA can get you more BTC there by fast tracking your BTC accumulation.

If you are saying that all three strategy are good,  you are implying that waiting and buying only the dip is a good approach, so how does waiting before buying good, when you might not even buy at all if the dip you are anticipating for did not come?

If you ask me, trying to use or merge all three strategies at once because you have the financial ability might lead to lack of concentration and a clear vision of the direction of your investment. I like to say that there is power in consistency. It's okay to concentrate on one strategy(DCA), and maybe buy the Dip if there is an available opportunity and of course if you have extra cash to do that. Trying to DCA, lump sum and buy the Dip all at once may screw up things as such investor may be too aggressively involved and may over buy, I mean tapping into the wrong funds just to buy Bitcoin, at such risky his investment. Buying slowly but with consistency is a more better investment approach rather than rushing over everything and making mistakes at the end

There is nothing wrong mixing up strategies when you have the enough leverages to do that, and I don't understand what you meant by it will lead to lack of concentration and a clear vision of your investment even when you have the financial strength to do so without struggling, one can be consistently buying Bitcoin with the dca, Lump sum and even buy the dip if all the preparations has been made at their convenient without seeing their investment as a burden and they have their other areas of life going well, it is all about what works for you or sit well for you as a person which might differ from that of others.

I think the reason some investors do not make use of the strategies of accumulating Bitcoin at the same time to buy Bitcoin is because they lack sufficient funds at their disposal to freely accumulate Bitcoin without struggling to foot their day-to-day expenses, so i agree that there is nothing wrong if investors are financially okay and they want to utilise the strategies of accumulating Bitcoin and buying Bitcoin at the same time with the strategies because it will help them to accumulate a good amount of Bitcoin in a short period.

Every strategy works accordingly besides there’s a timing to when an investor can apply any strategy gradually, the dca is commonly used either weekly or monthly depending on an investor choice. Buying the dip is not regular compared to other strategy including the lump sum method, when the market is experiencing a decline that’s a better opportunity to accumulate more. Investors wait for such opportunity but, doesn’t necessary mean the buying process has to stop instead consistent buying of bitcoin will build a good portfolio faster reason why other strategy are available.

You're right about this, and surely trying to follow the three strategy at once can be problematic just as you said that it can probably make investors not to concentrate and that is true, because when a guy employ the three strategy at once their attention will be divided as they will be trying to meet up with their lump sum buying and that of the DCA at the same time waiting for dip to happen, this way investors can probably get confused or run out of discretionary income and then, they might be attempting to temper other funds  Just so that they would stick to that method. So it better for investors to employ one strategy  instead of applying the whole strategy.

Personally, i see it a little differently. For me, the concept of the DCA method is not a strategy tied to a specific time or price level. I make purchases when discretionary funds are actually available, not because the price is falling to a certain level.

That said, aggressive buying when prices fall can be done, but it should be done using reserve funds that have been set aside for such conditions, not by forcing oneself when discretionary funds are not yet available, this will only jeopardise your Bitcoin investment. A decline is indeed a good opportunity to accumulate more, but a good opportunity can only be taken advantage of if we have good preparation/planning from the start.

When Bitcoin buyers are able to understand more methods for purchasing Bitcoin more regularly because they're financially stable, their portfolio will undoubtedly continue to grow without having to wait too long to accumulate a large amount of Bitcoin if each purchase is a fairly large amount on average. However, if you can't understand more methods for purchasing Bitcoin, or only understand one method for purchasing, I think that's not a bad thing for those who like to buy Bitcoin, as it's still much better than being a market spectator who doesn't dare to do anything in the current conditions.

Buying BTC using multiple methods is indeed a good thing if we have a large income, and we will surely accumulate a lot of BTC quickly. Surely, everyone who understands BTC wants to use multiple methods to quickly obtain a lot of BTC.

However, using just one method is also a good idea rather than not using any at all. But in my opinion, the most important thing is to remain consistent with whatever method we choose and, most importantly, to hold onto BTC for the long term. This is because there are many people who have a lot of BTC because they bought it using multiple methods but were impatient and ultimately couldn't hold onto it for the long term. So, in my opinion, the most important thing is to hold onto BTC for the long term because the more BTC we have, the greater the temptation to sell it, especially when BTC hits a new all-time high. However, if we only hold onto BTC for a short time, we won't make a significant profit.

This is a fast way to achieve significant results because our income is always sufficient to buy BTC, as it has a steady source of income. Having this kind of income certainly provides us with many ways or methods without worrying about the burden of buying BTC, allowing us to accumulate BTC more quickly.

Generally speaking if our income is so easy the method of using it is certainly very easy. Sometimes many people know the methods or methods but are constrained by insufficient income to buy BTC. If forced it will certainly be difficult for them to meet their daily needs. It all depends on the direction of our income. However people with a stable monthly income find it very easy to use any method or method to buy BTC with the aim of investing the large amount of BTC they have making it easier for them to invest over the long term.

Your argument is compelling but I must say that if you are trying to just do a 1 method bitcoin investment then it should be with the DCA, the other method have drawbacks that make using them exclusively a bit tricky, take buying the DIP now, if you decide to invest in bitcoin solely with this method then you are guaranteed to have to wait for a DIP before you can buy and that's not a smart move for an investor to make as good buying opportunities will just keep slithering by while you wait for a DIP that may or may not happen anytime soon. Lump summing as your only investment method also facilitates the same problems, why wait for discretionary income to pile up when you can consistently buy with the DCA, at the end of the day the DCA method is the only method you can use as a standalone method.

That's how it looks easier on paper, but in reality that's not the case. An individual have a stable income doesn't guarantees stability in his or her Bitcoin investment because not everyone can easily figure out their discretionary income as you think, and if such person went ahead to invest without figuring out their discretionary income, that's no longer an investment, but it's gambling, because they will likely temper with their holdings just to take back the money used to invest that shouldn't have been used to invest with in the first place, because the needs for that money is at hand, so a stable income doesn't guarantees stability in your Bitcoin investment, it's only those that can figure out their discretionary income very well that can say such.

DCA will only work especially if this one aligns with our discretionary fund. That aggressive accumulation during market dumps or decline they are saying would also work in favor to us if we are already prepared for so long and have capital to use during in that situation.

If it happens that they don't have concrete plans and no discretionary funds available to use those chasing for buying at dips might turns against them. This will put their portfolio at huge risk and they might lose everything especially if the market dumps more. That's why its good if they just do DCA and try to be more consistent with it rather than thinking about chasing those possible best entry thru waiting for dips.

[Sticky Bomb]

You actually made a very good point here, but in my own opinion the best and the smartest way to accumulate Bitcoin is by using two of the accumulating method to accumulate Bitcoin, and what am trying to say is that is either you are accumulating through the dca accumulating strategy or through the lump sum strategy, then along the line, if their is a dip in the market, you might decide to accumulate aggressively if you have a reserve funds in place to carry it out, and after that you can still focus on your dca or lump sum accumulating strategy, but trying to utilize all of them when accumulating can cause confusion that can be avoidable.

I personally believe that if you want to choose two strategies to mix when accumulating bitcoin, DCA should be your first priority and any of the two either buying the dip or lump sum because You need to keep your bitcoin accumulation ongoing through DCA consistent and persistent every week for 4-10 years and above while if you have set up your reserve funds, you can use it for the dip or you mix lump sum with your ongoing DCA whenever, you have the funds to lump sum.

Imagine when a new investor chooses lump sum and buying at the dip, these two strategies are the worse combo because it keeps you waiting and waiting is never a strategy when accumulating bitcoin because it limits the quantity of bitcoin, you can accumulate overtime and leaves you with very little bitcoin in future.

No accumulation strategy is better than the other, it all depends on your choice and the amount of discretionary income available to you upon starting out your accumulation journey. As long as the investor does not fold his hands and wait for the dip, if he has a large discretionary income available to him, he can choose to lump sum right away and if he sees a dip that he likes and has more discretionary income available, he can lump sum again on the dip and get lot more quantities at cheaper rates, such an investor can still choose to continue buying bitcoin with DCA on a regular note depending on how his income arrives which is still good.

The goal is not to practice the waiting strategy upon starting out your investment journey, also having a long-term investment plan, refraining from selling much too soon and have an accumulation target. Whichever way the investor wants to combine the accumulation strategies is at their own discretion.

Having this kind of income certainly provides us with many ways or methods without worrying about the burden of buying BTC, allowing us to accumulate BTC more quickly.

Buying BTC isn't a burden but a commitment you go into in order to secure your financial future in bitcoin, accumulating large amounts of bitcoin quickly depends on the quantity of discretionary income available to you and not on how steady your job is.

However people with a stable monthly income find it very easy to use any method or method to buy BTC with the aim of investing the large amount of BTC they have making it easier for them to invest over the long term.

This is not true because not everyone with a stable income can identify to having discretionary income and those who do not have discretionary income yet, despite having a stable income should not invest into bitcoin but work around their finances to ensure they have discretionary income available before investing.

Secondly, not everyone who has steady income and whom can identify to having discretionary income would have the ability to buying in large quantities and in such a case the investor cannot use the lump sum strategy but can use DCA to buy small amounts periodically, it is important to be as aggressive as you can without overdoing it so that it can be sustainable for longer.
