Putting too much concentration on how the market appears volatile can be discouraging to us, and we may also take a wrong move because of fear of missing out, which has cost a lot of people, we should also at this moment try as much as possible to do away with some event of breaking news that could be discouraged in especially when the market plummet, because many will use that to create fear in the minds of others as a result of the market fall, which could trigger for selling at loss by the ksr who couldn't afford to continue holding.
The news is shocking and this is a manipulation of the market that is indeed regulated, affecting fundamentals with all kinds of negative news that ultimately makes retail traders panic and whales wait to buy below.
This kind of practice happens all the time and many of them panic sell at a loss for fear that the price will continue to fall.

Even though when you already hold Bitcoin and buy at a fairly low price, there is no need to worry, because some rise to the new ATH will also occur.
Panic that results in a loss-making sale will only result in regret.

It's not worth it to trouble your emotions over short term volatility because it's certain that the price will rise again breaking out to historical price even when price has seem to fall down to the bottom.
Whalers will also find manipulating the market as strategies to buy more bitcoins in cheaper price after faking news to sell  that moves others especially the plebs who tends to copy the actions of the whalers.
There had also been scenario's that the whalers try to tricks us with their buying or selling news which we're supposed to treat as speculations and never to take them to heart because they can always make U-turn after all. Then those fallen on the trap to sell out of fomo becomes sources to get the rich richer.

Only people who want to perform day trading and are actually capable of making a profit with that strategy should look at the short term fluctuations and concern themselves with such things. Anyone else who considers themselves "investor" should only focus on the long term changes and currently we are in a dip which means even if there is more fluctuations, the current price is a discount as well and anyone who wants to accumulate should do it already (ie. don't just HODL, start buying).

This calls for a lot of experience that many don’t have. It’s obviously one of the ways to benefit the most from market movements but without the skill and knowledge on strategy, one might end up loosing even more.

The difficulty that is associated with this strategy is one of the major reason why people resort to holding, it’s more reliable and you need no experience to hold, just the willingness to buy some more and a lot of patience. Profit would always be waiting for you at the long run.

Current price hasn't varied much from a 5k range for 2 months it looks like.    Don't pay attention to something barely moving seems fair but be ready for when it does move might be better time and energy invested.

   The problem here is we have gone sideways so long the 50 day average which looked like it might recover and start a gain is sideways and even back into negative gradient, its flat at best.  Also so long as we remain below the 200 day average, we cannot hope to correct that popular measure back to positive movement.     All that can happen in this path is that the average moves down to us and eventually we get a resolution and find confidence to gain momentum higher.  Its not doing either at the moment just stalled, almost like a standstill then development of BTC price action.  Time will correct eventually I guess, price is not worth the attention as said.

Anyone can adopt a holding strategy, provided they have purchased a certain amount of Bitcoin and possess the patience you mentioned. However, many long-term Bitcoin investors do not limit themselves to this simple method; they often seek to increase their holdings through incremental market purchases, taking advantage of opportunities to buy when prices are low. Ultimately, it comes down to the individual's preferences and investment level, as holding only a small amount of Bitcoin is unlikely to yield substantial returns.

Yeah, I agree with you on this. Checking the price often can stress an investor out and lead to a mistake. A fast decision based on emotional swings most of the time can be a bad one. If you are a long-term investor, just let it be. Put your trust into it because you won't be deciding to be a long-term investor if you didn't do your research first.

Plus, if an investor bases his research on the history of Bitcoin, it shows that it always goes back up after a plunge. Might as well wait for that if those hands are itching to sell them. When it comes to Bitcoin investing, patience can be the biggest weapon of all.

Talking about the bold words in your statement. I agree with you that holding is more reliable, but if you want to hold strong without selling when you never wanted to, having knowledge on what is required to hold strong is very important, if not you will likely sell when emergency struck, if you have no emergency funds in place to protect your investment.

I may have the desired or zeal to stick to my holdings, but if I fail to put down emergency funds in place, my Bitcoin holdings will be vulnerable to any emergencies that comes up, so having emergency funds in place to protect your investment is what makes an investor to develop a strong holding hands, not just desire.
