For those who trade to increase the stash and not to DCA...
When was the last time you should have sold NVDA, GOOGL, AMZN, AAPL, etc etc in the last, say, 15 years?
The correct answer is probably "never".
A. Back in some interviews (
https://youtu.be/ykLZ_xg6FB4?t=669 or even better articulated here:
https://youtu.be/o0Qe1CZssek?t=1829) said that when you are 'in' an exponential asset, it is difficult to sell thinking that you'll buy back. Most likely, you won't be able to, unless, buy-sell is your "granular" DCA strategy that @philipma1957 and @JJG are espousing.
For me, it seems that it is never (or almost never) a good time to sell btc...I tried a couple of times with a non-insignificant sells and was never able to buy those coins back. Lesson learned.
and remember I am running the mine to do
DCA prime. which at the moment took me a long time to set up.
the mine adds 0.001047 btc a day for DCA prime
the ladder up ladder down on kraken which gains btc when things move enough
the buy the dip on PayPal which gives me fully kyc'd btc
So I add to coin in 3 ways
to do this all after the 4 way partnership ended took all of 2024 and part of 2025.
fo a simple approach DCA and hodl is easier
.
I should dca and hodl'd years ago. but I had mining partners went the mining route
made money but a few hundred's of thousands are not a few millions.
