Buy Buy Buy or Sell Sell Sell?

Those who make such comments are attempting to mislead newcomers; equating trading to investing should be avoided at all costs, as newcomers will become confused and will never understand the distinction between the two stages. So, due to their desire for more money, they may reach the training level and become confused about their holdings, so they should never take a different course at this time.

The only viable long-term investing strategy is to buy Bitcoin at the appropriate time and keep it for an extended period of time. If you invest in Bitcoin using the DCA method, Your investment will undoubtedly be successful, and it will be easy for that person to keep it for a long time, allowing him to increase his portfolio with the minimal amount of money.

I see the point you’re pushing at, and I agree that DCA plus long-term holding is one of the most practical ways to approach Bitcoin investing.
But  saying it’s the only viable long-term strategy is a bit too strong. Yes it works very well for reducing emotional decisions and avoiding market timing stress, but it doesn’t automatically guarantee success on its own. Even with DCA, investors still need a very clear plan, things like risk management and balancing investments with real-life financial needs. So I think DCA and long-term holding are solid foundations, but they only work best as part of a broader, flexible strategy rather than a strict one-size-fits-all rule.

DCA is not a strict rule. It is the best way of investment. People feel much more comfortable investing through DCA. It can be invested in all types of source of income . And before doing DCA, it is important to do fund management. And you have to understand how much your discretionary income is and invest through dca . It reduces risk, reduces stress, maintains consistency and is much more beneficial for long-term investment.

For me, Bitcoin is can be bought and sold anytime whether it is low or high. It is not like normal market trade and the rest. Bitcoin can be bought anytime and also sold anytime depending on your interest and investment. For me since I am still a beginner, I will like to buy buy and buy and hold because I know fully well that it will one day rise again. Buying and selling of Bitcoin is not influenced by the rise and fall of Bitcoin but by your choice and when you want to. Buying now since it is low and holding it will one day yield a great profit when I is high.

Saying that bitcoin can be bought and sold anytime also implies that one can buy this month and sell next month it seems that you are seeing bitcoin investment as what that can be traded for a short period well there are people who trade bitcoin and trading is too risky that i wouldn't advise anyone to go into trading moreover this thread talks about bitcoin long term investment and not some kind of trading for a short time gain.

Your statement can easily mislead beginners. It sounds more like a traders mindset than an investor and that’s something to be careful about since a lot of people here are still learning. Bitcoin is better approached as a long-term investment. Its real value comes from patience and not chasing quick profits. Buying and selling frequently is what traders do because they focus on short term gains but investors usually focus on accumulating and holding for a long time. As an investor you should stick to your plan even if the price goes high you don’t just sell because of that, you move based on your long term goals and not short term movements.

The statement you have presented to us is the essence of trading. A real investor will never sell his holding before the expiry of the period and if someone sells his holding before the expiry of the period then he is never a real investor. An investor can buy at any time but he cannot sell at any time. What you have said is what a trader always does. They sell their holdings after seeing a small amount of profit which is much less than the long term profit. In this topic we always discuss long term investment if you are interested in long term investment then you talk about long term investment and if you are addicted to trading then you can present your discussions here.Trading Discussion

DCA is an investment method through which we can invest and DCA method provides us more benefits than all other investment methods. However, DCA method never guarantees our investment to be successful. No one can ever say that you will be successful in investing, but yes, the chances of being successful in long-term investing are much higher. But no one can ever say that you will be successful.

This is more about a person's personal decision in determining their investment direction. If someone makes a short-term investment it includes the direction they are trading. I believe they only want to make a profit immediately after completing their accumulation this month. They immediately sell next month with the sole goal of achieving results or profits beyond their initial investment. So what I need to ask is why they do this if they have healthy capital or finances when if they do it long-term they might get more than they would have earned with a short-term investment.

Indeed the decision is up to each individual who does it but more people feel the risk when doing it in the short term because the market price cannot be predicted to increase regardless of what they do on the accumulation, sometimes the price in that month immediately goes down so that this is what causes problems and what often happens is that in the end they feel not the profit but instead the risk that they will definitely get unless they are able to hold on first and wait for the price to rise again based on the desires in their minds who sell in such a fast way.

This kind of mindset will not be helpful to you in any way and if you think it will ,then it’s time to rethink it or you’ll learn the hard way.
Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme neither is it a quick money tool, it’s better for you to picture it as a long term monetary asset that is highly volatile, that way you’ll be able separate noise from reality and make decisions based on patience and not irrational emotions like panic selling or selling when you’re not supposed to.
Another thing you should know as a newbie is that you don’t need to go all in at once , starting small as a newbie is the best approach and a good strategy you can use is Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) because it allows you buy Sats (small units of bitcoin) regularly so you don’t have to start timing the market or waiting to have a huge amount before you can buy. Mind you ,this should be done with your discretionary income which is the money that remains with you after you have taken care of all your basic expenses like food, utilities e.t.c.
Lastly, focus on custody, you should have control over your bitcoin by learning how wallets work especially self custody wallets. Exchange wallets are fine for buying but when it comes to long term storage, self custody wallets is the only best option. With these few points I’ve listed, if you appy them to your investment then you’re on the right track .

For beginners who have seen Bitcoin's history progress from its lowest price to its highest, they may have the confidence to buy Bitcoin now or when they are ready to do so at a certain time. Because of the several price increase cycles I have seen, they all stem from the growing interest and purchasing power of many people. Even when there is a slight panic in many people's minds, the Bitcoin price begins to decline, as happened at the end of last year and again at the beginning of this year. However, the possibility of further price increases in Bitcoin is always very open because interest in Bitcoin never wanes, even though corrections and price changes in the market always occur within days.

Now, if you're still a beginner, but already quite confident in Bitcoin, my advice is to consistently buy Bitcoin without being influenced by the market price. Especially if you don't have much Bitcoin yet, you can focus on buying at the current price, both daily and weekly, because the current price of Bitcoin isn't too high compared to its highest price ever reached.

I agree with you, with bitcoin, buying and selling anytime sounds easy, but it is not that simple. The market is volatile, so just buying and selling based on feeling can lead to losses. Buying low and holding has value, but only with patience and understanding, not just blind belief that price will always go up.

A smarter approach is to treat it as a long-term asset, not quick money. Start small, use DCA, and avoid going all in. This removes the pressure of timing the market. Also, take profit with a plan and secure your coins properly. Discipline, patience, and strategy matter more than just a buy-or-sell-anytime mindset.

You are misleading the newbies as every investor wants to invest in Bitcoin according to his own strategy. In this case, investing in Bitcoin according to the DCA method is the best plan, but the buying and selling you are talking about in the current position is probably referring to trading, so newbies can sell their investment if they make a small profit, according to your advice.
So it is better not to mention such advice, because Bitcoin investment is the only long-term investment that is most consistent, where the risk is much less and it is possible to use your money properly, and Bitcoin investment plays the most important role in meeting financial needs in the future. Therefore, Bitcoin is the only long-term investment that is most acceptable, in which Bitcoin investors can be self-sufficient.

What do i  expect from a newbie, you're here to learn and learn you'll. Bitcoin can be bought anytime, that's very correct but selling it everytime is very wrong, it's not wise to sell when you've not got to your overaccumulation stage and even when you do it's still very unwise to sell during the dips cause it's selling at lose.

 You don't spend time and effort to hold a precious digital currency like Bitcoin for many years just to end up taking profits at lose cause you've done so or taking profits when you've not gotten to overaccumulation stage. Also no one can correctly predict what would become of Bitcoin in years to come, even though it has increased as time goes for the past years you can't say you're sure that it would continue increasing but hope it does, please take corrections so you don't go doing the wrong stuffs or misleading people.

Who would love trading? Yes, there could be some of us who do that, maybe as a job or side hustle. But you need to have a lot of time in your side and be in constant with your laptop or pc. And then it's like a game or gambling itself, because you are looking at what could be the future price as we all know, no one has the crystal ball to see what the future holds. So for the majority, it's very hard and complicated. As compare to just be a long term holder, just accumulate let's say in the first 4 year as a Bitcoin enthusiast, and then see how it goes. Of course it's not that easy too as there could be temptations along the way specially when you see your X amount investment has been profiting Y amount. However, if you really look for the bigger picture and thinking about building generational wealth, I would suggest just to continue to accumulate as much as we can. We just hit 20 million Bitcoin being mined already. So everyone is going to be fighting for the remaining. So it will be scarce and with that, demands goes up. Others have a target to own at least 1 BTC in their life time. To be part of that group. So it's really better to continue or period of buying before we start thinking of selling if we have at least enough in our Bitcoin journey of 1 BTC in our wallet.

You're correct, trading is a "full time" job and is a really complex one than it just being a way to earn loads of money without even trying, its correct that is a full time and people oftenly mistake it as a hobby and the "crystal ball" usually leads to a burnout. The only safe and genuine way is BTC investing and that too DCA not just timing dips, DCA really stacks over time and you can even own a "whole Bitcoin" and the only thing that requires it is discipline.

Lol… you’re sounding like a trader who just got someone to support his stand. You might actually be a trader or someone with such mindset. Trading is not something you can say is a full time job, even when you apply all the technical and fundamental analysis nothing is guaranteed cos you don’t really know it, only speculating…, it’s like saying someone gambles for a living.
Most of the individuals who you see as professional traders are not really making their money from just trading, they have other sources and it’s just you being deceived.

Yes, that's generally the case, but remember, when you start investing in Bitcoin, you must have good intentions so that your Bitcoin holding journey can run more smoothly. If you're currently talking about holding it long-term, but then you see a small profit from it, I remind you to ignore it. I believe many beginners in Bitcoin investing are tempted by small profits and ultimately lose sight of their initial goal. That's why I'm reminding you of this.

In my experience,, it's sometimes very difficult for me to follow my own instructions. For example, when I intended not to sell my Bitcoin for over 10 years, I often found myself wanting to reap the benefits of my Bitcoin investment, even though I had already committed to myself that I wouldn't sell my Bitcoin for 10 years. Well, that's where we have to be strong. Fortunately, I've also frequently discussed this topic, and ultimately, I never sold my Bitcoin, which I had targeted for 10 years. So, I hope you understand my point, and I hope you can become a successful Bitcoin holder, my friend.

I think that the cause of this is inpatient and greed and because of these most of them invest with money that is not there discretionary income, most of them often believe they can outsmart the market and they losses more at the end of it. There is these things that most of don't know buying and holding bitcoin for long is not that difficult and it's not a must that we should buy either weekly or monthly if an investor is buying regularly doesn't mean he can't hodl when he doesn't have any discretionary income at the moment they can actually hodl and continue with they have their discretionary income again.

With your own ideology on bitcoin investment, it's very clear that you are still a newbie that knows nothing about how Bitcoin investment works, because you can't just buy and sell anytime you like without building any stash of bitcoin and call that investment in bitcoin, that's trading if you don't know.
If you really want to learn the ideal way to invest in bitcoin and be successful, you needs to stopping talking and do more reading of the post of knowledgeable users like jayguangee, that way you are going to learn faster on what you need to do while accumulating and investing in Bitcoin. Because you need to buy and accumulate Bitcoin consistently, since you have to build a reasonable stash of bitcoin, that defines how successful you may be in the future when Bitcoin has risen up to a million dollar in the future.
Furthermore, when investing in Bitcoin, you should only be thinking long term, because that is the only way your investment may be successful, since it's an asset that appreciates in value overtime.

We buy to invest and also sell to gain profit in other to buy again and sell. This two things works together. Buying or selling depends on the investor and the pattern or strategies he is operating with. You don't buy just now and say you want to sell unless you want to trade with it. At least you buy in other to hold and see that market is running so fine before you sell.
For me as a newbie in the Bitcoin business, I buy and hold using the DCA method. The Market whether it is low or high does not affect me when I do that. When I buy and invest in it, I make so much profit when because of how the market has favored me. Unless is a newbie that may be scared of the risk of loosing his money may be when the Market crashes that will rush and buy Bitcoin and sell suddenly. When we buy, we hold it to accumulate more profit that can be useful. Every method is all good but depends on the process and view that can be suitable for you.

I think is very wrong to put profit at the back of your mind when starting your Bitcoin investment because that is how traders behave. If you buy and sell when the price is high so what next. Keeping fiat with you that depreciates overtime or you will be planning to buy back cheaper. That shows that you don't understand how bitcoin works and you will regret your actions in future because all traders run at loss in the long run since bitcoin price appreciates over time.

A brand newbie should only focus on accumulating bitcoin with DCA for 4-10 years and above until he have reached his bitcoin target. He shouldn't think of selling during the period of accumulation until he gets to his over accumulation stage. Bitcoin is a long-term asset and a store of value overtime not a tool for trading.

Just because this thread title is buy buy sell sell doesn't mean that we encourage trading or random selling of part of your bitcoin when you are still accumulating bitcoin.

Where is your discussion headed? It's true that you can buy and sell Bitcoin at any time, but the most important thing is to have a goal. Because Bitcoin's price is highly volatile you buy it this month and then it drops next month, how do you sell it?

Investing in Bitcoin isn't as simple as saying you can buy and sell anytime. But if you have a long-term goal you can buy Bitcoin at any time because any time is the best. But selling requires extra patience to wait for the right moment to achieve your goal. That's why people recommend beginners use the DCA method for the long term so you don't have to worry about price fluctuations when buying Bitcoin. What I'm saying is that buying and selling Bitcoin isn't as simple as you say if you don't have a goal for investing in Bitcoin.

Lol, guy you are so funny. Hope you're not taking bitcoin to be one of those normal market commodities we do buy on a daily basics. Because to the best from what I can gather so far from your post you are sounding more like someone that literally have no idea concerning bitcoin investment, and I will advise you should be more open to learn more than saying what you don't know.

And also, I can also perceive some element of trading from your comments and as a newbie that's just coming up it's not that healthy for you, I will kindly advise you stay off that path if you really want to go far in your investment journey. Perhaps Long-term investment plan is just the way out to greatness as long as bitcoin investment is concern.

[Sulegzy39]

The investor's pattern or strategy determine whether he buys or sells. You don't buy right now and declare you want to sell unless you want to exchange with it. At the very least, you buy to hold
and observe how well the market is performing before selling.

As a newcomer to the Bitcoin business, I buy and hold using the DCA strategy. When I do this, it makes no difference whether the market is low or high. When I buy and invest in it, I make a large profit because the market has favored me. Unless you are a rookie who is afraid of losing money, when the market crashes, you will rush to acquire Bitcoin and then sell it quickly. When we buy, we keep it to earn more profit that can be used. Every way is beneficial, but it is up to you to determine which process and viewpoint is best for you.
