there are only two viable strategies for those accumulating bitcoin in my opinion.
- you either consider yourself a trader which means you have to be buying the dips and each time you see a good opportunity like the correction after we hit $5500.
- or you are just dumping your fiat every time you have some extra laying around and turning it into valuable bitcoin. in which case it really doesn't matter when you buy specially since that strategy is a long term one and whether you buy at $5000 or $5500 doesn't make much difference when price goes up in long run as it doesn't matter if you bought at $220 or $240 back in 2015 now that price is 25 times more!!!

It matters. Buying the dip is more efficient, you can buy more, and it supports the price whenever the whalecumulators are dumping hard on our faces. Enjoy the aroma, sooner or later they'll find out that selling is a mistake. Cool

of course everyone wishes to get the best offer possible when they are buying anything specially as an investment but as in investor you don't have that luxury all the time. for example imagine you were putting something like 5% of your paycheck every month into bitcoin. when you get paid you can't just sit around waiting for a dip to occur to buy bitcoin with it, you just buy it because waiting around can mean a rise or not change at all too.

That's what I used to do. But it's better to place a low bid, especially when the market has lately been more predictable.

In the current market situation, I believe placing bids spread on $4,500 - $4,700, waiting for the Bart Pattern to complete, is better than buying on market.
