Anyone who is new to bitcoin and who is trying to invest 4-10 years or longer (rather than trading) should be attempting to focus on ongoingly buying bitcoin rather than fucking around trying to figure out which way the price might go and/or if he might be in a position to realize profits. You may well be in the wrong thread if you are talking about trading rather than investing into bitcoin through ongoingly accumulating it.. through buying rather than selling.

You're very correct sir JayJuanGee when you said that anyone who is trying to invest 4_10 years should be attempting to focus on ongoingly buying bitcoin, and of course that's the real fact instead of waiting for the price to dip before they will think of buying bitcoin. Sometimes I keep wondering why most investors still get bothered when they already knew that the market is decentralized, Which means that no one have control over it even we the investors don't have any right to decide how the market will go. This is why we don't need to waste our time in trying to control the market, if all the low coiners will understand this definitely there won't be any challenges when investing in bitcoin.

I thinking you are mistaken buying the dip to mean trying to control the market. That is not the same thing and can never be the same thing in both context and application. Buying the dip simply means you are leveraging on the wavelike nature of the market, which is trending and correction, to get your orders filled at discount prices. The market will always make corrections because it is designed to move in that direction and when those corrections happen, that is the dip that investors can utilize to buy more bitcoin for the same amount of money they would have spent buying it when the price was much higher. Those who attempt to control the market are the traders that want to force the market to go in their direction so they can make money easily.

I agree with the later part of your response and that of JJG that making the buying process an ongoing one is better and that is exactly what I am doing via the DCA method. This eliminate the uncertainty of waiting for dips that will not happen when you expect thereby putting you at the risk of using the money for something else.
