So I hardly see any purpose to suggest to beginners to be worried about whether a correction may or may not end up happening this time around, and they likely should just be spending most of their efforts buying bitcoin regularly and persistently, at least for a whole cycle, unless if they might be able to front load their bitcoin investment.
JJG I think buying regularly and persistently using the most reliable and convenient approach is the best for any beginner in Bitcoin investment because it will help them not to run into trouble that is running out of finance and..., buying regularly will help them maintain and stay in the right track if they are determined but front loading is what a beginner should stay off from because if they don't have management skill it will result to a trouble too because if one don't have management skill, one can front load more than he or she is suppose to... That is why buying regularly using the DCA method is preferred for mostly beginners because they will have a particular amount they will be accumulating with unless there is a change in there source of income.
Front loading your Bitcoin investment those not require you to have a special skill, when you talk about having a management skill before fronting loading yeah you are correct but not only on front load even if you are using the DCA strategy you still need to have a management skill.
Having a management skill is very important in every investment and Bitcoin investment is not excluded no matter the strategy you are using.
Encouraging a beginner to front load his bitcoin investment from the beginning might look a bit unethical for me, the beginning stage for every investor is always the learning stage, and it always has to do with your emotions and your psychological strategy, the beginner can just see a sudden dip and he would panic beyond the normal expectations especially when he has front loaded enough, so for me I would rather advice a beginner to DCA with some level of caution and take out time to understand how the market works, so probably after 2 to 3 years of experience, he/she can then front load his investment, because at this point, he wouldn't easily give in to panic no matter how fluctuating the market price is. At least a child should learn how to creep before learning how to walk and run.
You are right however if a beginner understands that dip is part of Bitcoin growth I don't think he will panic after front loading and a dip happens, now there's something you need to understand from what SuperBitMan said he said those who can front load as a beginner are those who has the financial strength to do that and not those who don't, now some biggers who are rich can front load there Bitcoin investment with $10k for example and when a dip happens they won't panic because first they understand that dip is part of Bitcoin growth and secondly the money they used to front load is there discretionary income or money they can afford to lose so for a rich beginner into Bitcoin investment to front load is not too much of a big deal, it all depends on your mindset some newbies who are accumulating slowly still panic when a dip happens.
I believe Sir JJG will address this matter very well to everyone's understanding when he comes online.
Although you have a point but then, your financial strength as a beginner should be used to maintain your DCA strategy, you don't begin to front load from the beginning of your investment when you have not understood the volatility of the market, as times goes on and as your level of understand expands, you can as well increase your DCA amount.
If you are to advise a millionaire in your locality about investing in Bitcoin and he agrees, would you advise him to front load his investment from the beginning because his a millionaire? Of course I believe your answer will be No, rather you will advise him to start investing strategically with the DCA method with a certain amount to build his portfolio, then he can gradually increase it over time.
