Bear season is the best time to buy Bitcoin, all you need to do is continuously accumulate as much as you can, because price can only go up from there, it's when DCA method is most profitable. Inasmuch as you have a source of income that takes care of your expenses, then there's nothing to worry about, because it's not advisable to sale during bear run, only to continue buying till bull run, then sale or keep hodling. So the next step if I'm experiencing a great bear run is to keep buying or pause till it's bull run, but try as much as possible not to sale.
Whenever you see bear season, show that the time to buy BTC is arrive and you will begin to see those that saved money for bear season to come will start buying from the market and hodl them in a secure wallet that will make them safe until bull season come before they can put them for sale.
If you have only one source of income, and you depend only on your BTC investment, it will be difficult for you to hodl your BTC for long because issues can occur in the bear season that will make you to sell all your BTC to solve the issue in the bear run.
It will be a good thing to hodl your BTC till bull season occur before you can sell to make profits, and you will not regret for selling your BTC at that moment because that is the season people use to make profits to establish themselves.
