It is a better strategy taking profits after hodling for 4-5 years of your bitcoin accumulation.
Am really surprised that you are not learning and getting the right knowledge, first of all, you don't sell in your accumulation stage, regardless of what so ever, because it is not logical in anyway.
Secondly, holding for 4-5 year interval, and start taking profit is not investing, you are actually a trader that is selling some of your asset for minimal gains.
Investing by DCA and Discretionary income can help you take off your mind from your bitcoin wallet which ythe only way you can be able to Hodl for long. Instead of spending time and energy trying to convince someone to Hodl for long, same energy should be channeled on letting them understand why they should only invest with discretionary income and best by DCA. By so doing, beginners won't have any reason to withdraw their bitcoin before long.
Investing with your discretionary income only does not defines your holding ability, it just helps you to keep your eyes off your investment for the time being, it's your source of income, emergency funds and a possible backup fund that determine your ability to hold till any season of your choice.
I'm beginning to think if you actually know how to calculate your discretionary income because from what you have written, it looks like you are writing from a single perspective. Maybe you don't know that your emergency fund which is the same as your backup fund and all may be gotten from your discretionary income.
Your discretionary income is what is remaining when you have cleared your necessity bills(rent, tax, utilities etc) when you have gotten your weekly or monthly pay. This money is an extra fund remaining you can use for a vacation, investment, savings etc depending on what your goals are and the kind of person you are. From your discretionary income you can save for you our emergency fund and investment fund which are important for anyone that want to have other investments,b maybe crypto or non crypto projects.
You don't have to confuse yourself or others when you are using things up. It takes a disciplined person to save for time of emergency especially when they have different investment plans. Once you have your back up fund intact, you wouldn't be bothered about the market ranging because you know that even though you need funds to take care of some bills, your backup funds can come in and solve their problems with ease. Every investors need to know what they are doing to avoid selling part of their holdings when the motive of investing has not been accomplished.
