Every thread is still not the same, even if there might be forum goals that members improve themselves, the goals of improving yourself may well be to stay the fuck on topic.. that helps you and it helps other members.

This thread does have a little bit of a problem because surely it emphasizes buying and holding, but also buying on the dip, so as soon as we try to time the dip, then there can be questions about whether that is like trading, so maybe part of the reason that DCA comes so much into this thread, even though it is not the topic of the thread, is because DCA is compared with buying on the dip as one of the accumulation methods, including suggesting that DCA is better than buying on the dip, even though not everyone is going to agree, it is way more on topic to talk about various BTC accumulation methods than to get into discussions of trading.. and then what would you expect this thread to be?  all topics? 

Probably the ONLY thread on the forum that permits more free-wheeling of topics is the Wall Observer thread... in that thread you can talk about most things.. except if you get into shitcoin pumping, then you are likely going to get a lot of pushback

Trading would always be off topic in this thread cause its the exact opposite of what this thread is all about, Holding, trying to time the dip is just the same as trying to trade, such rules don't apply on here, cause it has been proven with facts so many time on this thread that you can't time the price cause bitcoin is unpredictable and volatile all we do is speculate what we think might happen.

I actually agree with you cause I myself have and still DCA, every one have different reasons for using DCA but I do use it cause I don't have to worry about the best time to buy since I'm always buying, and @Hewlet no one said buying on dip is bad but actually trying to time the market makes it sound like your trading cause your more focus now on the profit you would make on your Portfolio in a short term than thinking about accumulating for the long term hold
