I don't see anything misleading concerning his statement maybe you didn't read well to understand what he's saying, you both are on the same page cause his question State "so is it not cheap to buy now?" and not the other way round, stating that there's a possibility of Bitcoin rising by January alone should've made you understand that he aware that it's more cheaper to buy at this point. Anyways, it's very true that we're still at the early stages of Bitcoin therefore I don't think anyone should be scared or worried about the price or even want to wait for more downslide before buying, while waiting the person would definitely miss several opportunities, the market has given us the opportunity of buying more so it would be best to seize the opportunity now and even buy more if it the price decrease more, that's considered as more buying opportunity. If you notice, big institutions and top business tycoons are still buying so i wonder why individuals would be having second thoughts instead of seizing this buying opportunity the market has offered.
