What trend? You are talking about some kind of bullshit short-term trend that may or may not exist? I doubt that there is very many questions to doubt the trend that we are already in even if we are currently experiencing a correction that is so far only slightly more than 20%.
The most major trend is that between late 2021 and late 2022 we went from $69k to $15,479, and then from late 2022 to now we have largely been going up (even though we might not have realized that we were going up until around mid-2023 or even not until late 2023 might we started to feel more comfortable that we are most likely in an uptrend that started from late 2022), and so it would be hard to believe that we are stopping from going up, even if we may well have various degrees of correction along the way, and even if we were to go back down to $25k.. seems like a BIG so what? The trend is up, and don't get me wrong, I have my doubts that $25k is likely, even though it is not impossible to happen... but if we are largely longer term BTC holders and even BTC accumulators, we should always be attempting to prepare ourselves (Financially and psychologically) for both directions at the same time, including potential extremes that could end up happening.
It always coincides with my current personal situation. Where this morning my wife kept raving Bitcoin went down right after she bought it. btw he's been doing DCA once a week, now it's been going on for about 4 or 5 months, I need to be his mentor in dealing with unexpected situations like you said with extreme potential. There are many things that can be done including cultivating a strong mentality, avoiding negative media a little, and making sure not to look at Bitcoin prices too often. He just tries to buy, withdraw it into his wallet then forgets about it until next week when he goes in to buy.
Talking about trends definitely refers to longterm trends, we are still quite at the point of improvement, but if we are referring to shortterm trends then we don't have any targets in the near future, other than waiting for the halving which is around 100 days from now.
