Trading is not a bad idea, same as hodling btc, most persons don't have the patience to Hodl btc for a long time, so it all comes down to the individual, we all know what works for us individually and as such we should focus on it, I personally will prefer the DCA strategy, because it has worked for me severally, I see every DIP as an opportunity to invest massively, but same can't be said to another person who thinks another strategy is better, so it comes down to the Individual and the experiences he or she has gotten.
Since when is trading the same as hodling BTC? It seems like you have made a mistake in responding to this and even deviating from the discussion of many people who do not assume that here. And when you are someone who likes to take advantage of the Dip by implementing the DCA strategy for large-scale investments, you also shouldn't accuse other people of not having patience for this if you don't have enough accurate data regarding this. Even though everyone's patience is different, in terms of taking advantage of the Dip and holding Bitcoin for now, there are quite a lot of people who are happy to do it.
So you should not assume that other people do not have enough patience to do their best and it is also not appropriate to equate any trading with people who hold Bitcoin for a long time because people who hold Bitcoin for a long time rarely think about trading. Even though sometimes they also like to make money in different ways in the market, holding Bitcoin will always be their priority in the long term because it doesn't just start from now, but long before times like now.
