Bitcoin price is moving up gradually and if you know that you are interested for investing in bitcoin I believe this is the normal time we can invest in the bitcoin, so their no time we invest that is waste of time but the problem is to know when is dip so that you will make a profit in cryptocurrency investment, things I know of bitcoin is that we are not supposed to be believing in the speculation of bitcoin because speculation is one of the things that makes people to invest when they are not supposed to invest in bitcoin
Although I can't vouch for myself as a Bitcoin specialist but I am pretty sure I have learnt a couple of things here on reading the teachings of JayJuanGee and other members here through their conversation and I believe we don't actually have to make it compulsory for us to actually buy the dip in other for us to start an investment and please correct me if not wrong. Bitcoin I believe is an asset that has full potential to grow although it's has some downtrend that is useful if we get to buy then but I think we can also be successful Bitcoin holder if we careful start a good plan and execute it and by good plan I mean using the DCA strategy which requires strategic plan of buying specific or in some case any amount we can afford on a continual basis until our supposed target is reached although some tend to hold for much longer till another ATH is achieve.
And I believe also that you can be very successful in buying the dip but that really doesn't cut it and the real issue is whether if you can hodl it because I tend to perceive that buying of Bitcoin is another and holding of it is also that's why this thread is also here I think, to discuss on various way in which we all can be successful Bitcoin holders through buying the DIP and HODLing.
Of course, some of the ideas behind buying the dip and HODL can vary, including figuring out how to interpret such concepts under your own system, and it might not exactly matter what OP might have thought about the significance, even if he did have his own interpretation of it, which surely is a reasonable one.
If some of the initial thoughts of the thread is that the BTC price is going up, but there might be some dips along the way that would be better to buy rather than buying on the way up, but then the idea of HODL could signify that if any of us might be early in our BTC accumulation phases, then it is better to HODL rather than to sell and to expect to be able to buy back at lower prices, but also HODL could be a concept that if you run out of money from buying on dips and the BTC price keeps dipping, then it may well be better to HODL rather than to sell and expect to buy back even lower. but still the concept of HODL on the way down could also be supplemented by some kind of a DCA in the way that cashflow might continue to come in, but there might be questions regarding if the BTC price is going to dip any further, so someone who might have run out of money might decide to DCA with cashflow that is coming in.
These various kinds of BTC accumulation practices can become controversial because guys are going to come to this whole situation from their own framework of what they might believe will work better, which may or may not end up playing out well... and there are tradeoffs to various strategies, even if we might be able to figure out some common goals, guys might still choose to approach their BTC accumulation differently.
Regarding target accumulation levels, those could change the ways and the extent to which guys would choose to accumulate, and some times guys might mostly transition out of accumulation.. absent some extraordinary circumstances... or even if someone believes that s/he has reached his/her BTC accumulation target, there could be some changes in personal circumstances or even some changes in the market that might contribute towards needs to reconsider whether and/or how to accumulate more BTC.

Until bitcoin crosses it's ATH we are still in dip. Most people don't understand that one thing that makes bitcoin investment interesting is the dip. We are not supposed to see the dip in bitcoin as a bad or a crash as most people who are newbie thinks, but rather we should see every dip as an opportunity to increase our bag.
There is a popular saying that if you don't buy the dip you won't sell the top. Whenever I see bitcoin dipping am always happy because I know that after the bear comes the bull. I always feel pain when I don't have more money to invest during the dip, but I make sure I add something to my bag whenever bitcoin dip below the price I bought last.
I am not really opposed to anything that you are saying Justbillywitt, yet that expression: "if you don't buy the dip you won't sell the top" sounds like both a traders statement and implying some kind of abilities to figure out what are tops and bottoms... sure no problem with buy on the way down and sell on the way up, but there ar problems with any strategies that try to figure out tops and bottoms, even though sometimes getting some sense of tops and bottoms can help us to figure out likely current BTC price direction... which even that is much easier said than done.. and easier to accomplish by looking back at what happened rather than figuring out where we might be going from here, especially in the short-term.
