In my own case, I would consider DCA with discretionary funds as the most secure long-term course of action, whereas I would consider dips as an opportunity to be a little more aggressive provided that your financial capabilities permit it. In that manner you would develop progressively without putting aside money that you could require the next day.

Don't rely on the market to be aggressive in investing. Rather, you can be aggressive in investing as soon as you have prudent money depending on your ability. Whether or not to be aggressive in investing depends entirely on you and your financial situation. Being aggressive in investing is not wrong or obligatory. Being aggressive within your ability will take you a little further in your investment journey and will keep you moving towards your goals faster. Be careful that being aggressive does not put you at any financial risk and does not hinder your continuity.

That highlight is correct, Jewan420, since it seems that the ability of a person to be aggressive tends to relate to the strength of his finances rather than whatever the BTC price might be doing at any given time.

Sure a guy could have BTC buying systems in place that allow for him to buy more bitcoin based on certain drops in the BTC price, yet I doubt that he should be changing his level of aggressiveness based on such drops since he may well already have plans in place, and whatever level of aggressiveness he would have already had in place based on the strength of his already existing financial situation rather than whether the BTC price might have gone down or not.

So even if a guy had been buying $100 of bitcoin no matter what for the past 2 years, maybe he was saving an extra $25 per week for buying dips, and maybe he had some parameters for buying the dips, yet he had some flexibility too.. .. so there may have had already been a few times in the past couple of years that his buy on the dip systems were triggered, so if the BTC price dipped from $124.5k to $109k-ish, his buy on the dip systems may or may not could have had been triggered. If the guy has ONLY been practicing such system for a couple of years, he might not have a lot of confidence in regards to the parameters in which his dip buys would be triggered and/or even the extent to which he considers such buy on dip system might help him any better than just keeping on with his regular buys every week and perhaps he could just choose to roll the extra $25 into his regular BTC buys and there is nothing wrong with that, either. Guys can decide the extent to which they believe having some kind of buy on dip system might be helpful to their finances and/or their psychology.
