It would be wrong to say that the dip is the ideal time to buy, but you can definitely use that time to
maximize your gains. Maximizing gains is a trading, rather than an investing concept.
Sure if we are able to buy on dips, then we would be able to buy more BTC with the same amount of fiat.... yet if we are holding back and waiting for dips, we might end up with fewer btc (satoshis) than what we would have had by just buying BTC persistently, consistently, regularly and perhaps aggressively.
In other words, no problem taking advantage of dips if you happen to be in a position to take advantage of such dip, yet hopefully not too many BTC accumulators are causing too much whimpiness in their BTC accumulation strategy based on waiting for dips rather than buying BTC regularly.
Exactly JJG, when a person talk about maximizing profits, it's obvious the person just buying to resell when the price goes higher and not buying to obtain higher stashes of Bitcoin at lower price margin in order to fast track their accumulation journey.
Those looking out for dips only to maximize profits are only concerned about short-term market fluctuations and may never be able to boast of good Bitcoin portfolio, if at all they have any. The profits they get from such trading practices are nothing compared to the profits that comes from the compounding effect of Bitcoin price appreciation over a longer period of time which still validates the fact that investors who accumulate Bitcoin persistently are going have more bitcoins and would be in more gains in the future than traders fucking around with Bitcoin price and only seeing the need to buy Bitcoin at dips in order to sell it back immediately there is an upward price correction.
Most of this gamblers are laced with regrets in the future when they calculate how much profits they've missed while gambling with Bitcoin instead of investing into it.
