I think that we will continue to need to remind newbies to the thread, since there are so many people who get the impression of trading as soon as they see "buy the dip," yet at the same time, I think that the thread has a history in which "buy the dip" is the premise, and it even took the OP author (Wind_FURY) several years before he even began to realize that DCA is a better strategy than buy the dip....and that is o.k. too.. since it seems to me that so many folks get lured into thinking that they need to start investing in bitcoin with "a good entry point," and so they do not even realize that waiting for a good entry point is not as good of strategy as getting the fuck started and start buying as soon as they can figure out if they have discretionary income.
Thanks to @Wind_FURY for creating this interesting thread because it has helped a lot of us here not only newbies to understand the dynamics of investing in bitcoin rather than trading and it has also exposed us to the knowledge of the DCA which is the most convenient way to acquire bitcoins without much difficulty because you will still be presented with the privilege to buy at a DIP price along the intervals of your DCAing and it has also helped us to have an understanding that waiting for a DIP before buying is not a good strategy because it can be problematic while waiting for a DIP and it end up not happening but instead increase more of which if one had acquired at that interval when the discretionary income is ready, they can realize that they actually bought when the price was cheaper when considered with the current price of bitcoin.
We need to know that as more newbies are flooding the thread, they will always come up with the idea of trading since they feel they can buy at DIPs and sell when the price has risen not knowing that it is a very wrong approach to bitcoin so except for someone who has been accustomed to this thread and understands that it is much better to invest in bitcoin than trading it.
In the end, some newbies are going to learn, and some will continue with a trading kind of mindset that they have difficulties to shake...and if we are in bitcoin and if we are wanting to continue to talk to newbies, then we likely have to realize that many of them are going to gravitate towards wanting to talk about trading, gambling and even shitcoins, and so some of them will come around and others will take time to figure out that trading, gambling and shitcoins are either inferior ways to treat bitcoin or to think about bitcoin in those kinds of distracted (and lack of focus) ways.
Of course, newbies first get enticed when they are introduced to shitcoins that promises to turn their investment to x100 to x1000 and since they have that initial mentality that they can get quick rich within a short interval of time all their mindset is geared towards trading and that is the reason why when we are talking about the risks associated with trading they become so adamant until they have encountered losses severally and within those times they might start having the true reality of the disadvantages of trading over investing so yeah at the initial stage it is always difficult to draw newbies away from trading.
