To me, it seems better if guys attempt to try to be purposeful with the extent to which they might be buying extra bitcoin on the dip, since it seems that whenever money is available to buy the dip, that money has either been purposefully set aside for buying the dip or it was a result of some kind of surprise income stream.
Surely, if it is a product of a surprise income stream, I have no problem with the idea of buying the dip with the money, even though there even comes a dilemma if the BTC price happens to be dipping, and then the person buys right away or how does he determine if more dip might come?
I think that if guys already have systems in place, then they are less likely to screw up their cashflow for buying on the dip purposes.
Surely guys who are regularly buying some kind of a budgeted amount of BTC each week, they may also decide to hold back something like 20% of their BTC purchase amount for buying on the dip. So then if they are already in the practice of holding money on the side to buy the dip, then as that money builds up they may well have to consider at which prices are they going to be buying the dip. For example, at a 10% correction, and then every 5% additional dip until running out of dip buying money.
Some guys likely consider that they are going to hold money on the side to buy the dip, and then they are going to attempt to maximize their use of such dip money by figuring out how much of a dip is a good dip, and that just seems like a fantasy to me. I personally think that guys should attempt to mostly be more systematic rather than imagining that they will be able to magically figure out the dip location. That kind of dip buyings seems too much like fantasizing and a form of gambling.
Although I am in favor of buying Bitcoin regularly, I still support dips. Because I can divide my money into three parts, for example, if I want to invest $50/100 every week, then (if it is $50) $20 for regular, $20 for dips, and $10 for emergencies. Suppose I buy $20 regularly every week, and keep $20 for dips and wait. I set a target like this, if there is a dip, I will buy Bitcoin with this dip money. In this way, I wait for two, four, six months, if desired, I will buy, otherwise I will keep depositing. And I have regular money, I will keep buying regularly from there. I think this method is good. If I buy with all the dollars at once, it will be seen that when there is a lot of dips, I do not have any dollars left. Then I will feel and regret it, so we need to create a fund called dip to buy Bitcoin. Sometimes there is a market crash, then we can use that emergency money. Or you can use it for any need you have. I think there is no alternative to saving to make your future life beautiful.
There's no need of mapping out some portion of your discretionary that you will be using to buy during the dip, if it is $100 you have in your discretionary fund and you intend to be putting $50 into bitcoin regularly, maybe you can choose to keep the rest $50 should incase there's any other business/ investment you will like to diversify into. If you don't have any other budget apart from your bitcoin investment, then I will advice you put the $100 in your bitcoin investment if your emergency fund and back up is available instead of delaying your accumulating journey in saving up some portion of your discretionary fund ahead of the dip that you're not even sure of when it will happen, once your emergency fund and your back up funds is available you can still deep your hand in any of this funds to increase your aggressiveness when there is dip, so there's absolutely nothing to worry about.
