Those who have been investing for 5 years can be called new investors in many cases because their portfolio depends on it. For example, consistency is very important in investing. And it is very necessary for a new investor to start investing. If a person knows what Bitcoin is and through which method it can be invested, be it DCA or DIP and if there is a discretionary income, then it is never right for a person to wait to invest. Because many people think that investing requires a lot of expertise or a lot of knowledge. Along with investing, you can achieve everything. If you do not invest, how will you gain experience. And a person has to be patient.
Time never makes you an experienced investor or an old investor. There are some investors whose investment funds are 5 years old, but we can call them new investors. Even a person who has invested for 2-3 years can be called an experienced investor.
In this case, how consistent you are in your investment practice is important. Suppose you bought $100 Bitcoin today and kept it and in between you did not practice any investment. Then we definitely cannot call you an old investor. You are still a new investor after 5 years.
If you keep practicing investment regularly and keep spending time and gaining knowledge to improve your skills, then we can call you an experienced investor even after 1-2 years. Because you are consistent with investment and are investing consistently in the DCA method.
The main purpose of this sentence is that long-term planning alone may not be enough for investment. Rather, you have to be consistent with long-term planning and run to achieve the goal.
