A strategy that has worked out well for me was buying set amounts daily for a month or more. Usually I wait and hope for a dump each day, and then buy up into sells if i cant get them dumped. A month later i have a decent avg buy in price and stakes starting to fire off daily. I guess the downside to this approach is running the wallet 24/7, i don't mind though. I have no problems selling stake the market absorbs dumps much better than you would expect when looking at the orders.

Also i will sell some stake and try for 10% trades, sell at x price then use the btc to buy 10% cheaper resell that 10% higher rinse repeat make more btc or more tek. If i cant flip the tek on a downswing ill wait only a short time and then just send to wallet and restake.
