You seems to be contradicting what I said, I didn't said Bitcoin investment and trading doesn't have strategy off course both trading and investing has their strategy and principles to follow but that of trading is not certified I mean it is not sure or guarantee that someone will make profit from it because the market is very volatile and it is not easy to predict the possible direction of the market and this is also the reason why people are not always encouraged to trade Bitcoin because the possibility of losing your funds is higher but in Bitcoin investment you don't need to worry about any of these because no matter the Dip it will always surge and we have experienced it.

Of course.. it is important for a new investor not to rush for profit. Their investment objective will be to accumulate one full cycle of Bitcoin. If they can successfully complete this they should do another cycle and another cycle as long as they have discretionary income available. If you expect to make a profit at the beginning of your Bitcoin accumulation you will not get very far because the temptation of a price increase will make it tempting to withdraw your Bitcoin holdings. Regular buying targets rather than focusing on profits will support you to keep buying at every price point in the market and is a great way for new investors to learn investment discipline.

If they are focusing only on short time profit for sure that aside that they could possibly miss lots of great opportunities, this can also make them panic especially if they see that market is declining and the don't have any idea about other things to do on that situation.

We could see that volatile movement is normal on Bitcoin, but if they go long term with this also if they have confidence that Bitcoin have good future, those small steps they made can possibly give them good result in future especially if they remain consistent will not get bothered by any short term fuds happening with this coin.

Starting up with $10 is really fine since with that they can already practice to do DCA strategy and it can help to learn engaging on a investment with minimal rick.

If they already have good trust on the process and gain great experience this time they could able to take advantage on each situation happening on the market and also can able to increase raise up their investment sizes.

dca method is appropriate to use in any period in market and uptrending price don't make DCA less appropriate. dca is the ongoingly buying of bitcoin without giving a fuck about what the price it is.

Nobody can outwit the market . And if you get all picky in choosing when you buy and when not to buy that can get you timing market  and with that you can't builded enough bitcoin stash

Provided there's discretionary income you can ongoingly buy bitcoin in the uptrending and downtrending market.

And that’s the very reason why people, especially newbies shouldn’t just blindly delve into something they have absolutely no idea about, especially when it involves them putting their money into it. It’s true that everyone must not use the same strategy in Bitcoin investment, but also using the wrong strategy can land you into much bigger trouble, which is why everyone should first do their due diligence first, have a solid understanding of what they are going into, know the ins and outs, the cons and pros before finally entering, this is exactly what helps people make better decisions about their choices of investments.

You are not wrong, yet if we are making these kinds of weekly buys for a couple of cycles or longer, the timing of the buys are likely not going to make very much difference in regards to which day of the week that you buy or even if you attempt to buy the dips within the week.  It still can be fun and even make you feel better to try to buy the dips during the week.. even though in the whole scheme of things after a couple of cycles or longer, it may well not change your average cost per BTC in any meaningful and/or material way (or cause you to accumulate a meaningfully/materially significant larger amount of BTC). 


I have my doubts about the abilities for any of us to make up for our past times in which we might have had been investing into bitcoin more whimpily.  Sure, it is an idea to invest more aggressively to make up for lost time.. - yet we still have limits in regards to how aggressive we can be..

So let's say that a guy learned about bitcoin, and he decided that he was going to invest into it at around $30 per week, while he is orienting himself and becoming more comfortable.. so perhaps he knows that he could invest $100 per week, but he just is not comfortable enough...

So as he invests he little by little raises his amount, and maybe he even goes up to $120 per week or even $150 per week, and part of his motive is to make up for the times in which he was more whimpy.. I question the extent to which that would work.. even though I do recognize that people will do things like that... there are even provisions in American investment laws that gives tax benefits and even abilities to "make up" invest once a guy gets over 50 years old.. under the assumption that sometimes guys will realize that they had not invested enough prior to 50 years old, so when they turn 50, they are allowed to invest at a higher limit into some of the tax benefitted accounts.


Sure.  There is nothing wrong with assessing and reassessing from time to time, yet the conclusion may or may not be to continue to accumulate bitcoin. There could be assessments that the person has enough bitcoin or even assessments to change the level of aggressiveness in accumulating bitcoin (such as making the accumulation less aggressive).


Stop being patronizing.  If a newbie to bitcoin can figure out that he has discretionary funds and he knows that he has common sense, then he can get started right away.  He hardly needs to know anything beyond whether he has an extra $30 in his pocket in order to get started.

Now in order to continue to invest, and as the amounts become larger, he may well have to improve his understanding of both his cashflow situation, and also look into bitcoin a bit more in terms of considering self-custody and getting some ideas how bitcoin works and why it is a good long term investment for 4-10 years or longer.

Sure, there may be some people who determine (based on their common sense) that they have some time, energy and value constraints, so they might identify that it could take them a bit of time to decide the place in which they are going to start to source their bitcoin.  Perhaps they heard about a few possible options, yet feel that for their own comfort level, they are going to need to investigate into their bitcoin source possibilities, and perhaps spend a few hours looking further into that.  Maybe also they have some income and expense issues that they feel that they need to look into also, yet there still might be some importance that they figure out their matters.

It’s not about being hard, but more about knowing what to do, how to do it and possibly when to do it. Not saying people need to know everything, but do you think it’s everyone that knows they should invest with their discretionary income? That’s part of the basic things every bitcoin investor should know. You can just expect a complete newbie to realize that he needs to invest with his discretionary funds or that they need to have some sort of a financial cushion. Just knowing they need to be accumulating bitcoin for the long term isn’t enough, when they don’t have the basics of investing.

As much as it's not out of place to engage in discussions you see others commenting on, it's equally expedient to give you view in a coherent manner that relates properly with what's being discussed or else, you're seen to be someone that's just spamming the thread with a not sk meaningful contribution.

Of cause, newbies both the ones that are new to bitcoin and the ones that have known about bitcoin but are relatively new to actually investing in bitcoin tend to face a lot of challenges at the early phase and most of them might be looking at imidiate profit which is why the word trading doesn't seems to leave Thier mouth. We can't condem them so much because they are still learning but at our own end, we just need to educate them properly and let them know that bitcoin works better when the investor looks at it from a long term standpoint. Trading and any form of short term expectations of reward is nothing far from gambling with Thier asst.

I blame them because for someone that has common sense, they should be able to differentiate between investment and trade/gambling.
Anyone who wants to invest already knows that investment is all about building something for a while and reach a certain benchmark or milestone before it matures for profit taking and in bitcoin investment, using DCA strategy, the investor should be interested in accumulating bitcoin for a while and reaching your accumulation target before you start thinking about profiting from it.

Coming into an investment with a mind to make profit without first committing the necessary work to build your investment prospect for a while is already a defeated mindset and such hardly records tangible success therein.

Even the bible says it for Christians that "There is a time to sow and a time to reap" Ecclesiastes 3:2, so the person who comes with a mind of reaping while he should be more concerned with sowing properly first of all would not necessarily have much, if any at all to reap when the supposed time for reaping arrives.
