"If funds are limited", then the only option should be to look for a job, and/or a second job. Suggesting altcoins as a "second option" is stupid.

I can't afford to buy bitcoin when there is a decline again later either at the end of this year or in early 2020, I only have a little capital and only enough to buy some other cheaper Altcoin, in some time I feel being played with by bitcoin prices this time
You do not really need to buy one bitcoin you can buy whatever you can afford, I know that is very tempting to buy altcoins because you can buy a very huge number of them for a very low price but what it is the point of buying an altcoin that is going to go down in value and it is never going to recover? It is better to use your money to invest in something that you know that no matter what happens it will go up in value during the next years.
Actually, if funds are limited, the second option is to collect from trading altcoins, but the fact is that it is now increasingly difficult to make a profit from altcoins.  when bitcoin goes down and altcoin is even more destroyed. because I myself experienced this, and my assets are getting down due to buying some altcoin that is increasingly destroyed.
And that is the issue that I'm describing, at first sight it may seem as it is more profitable to buy altcoins, but altcoins only outperform bitcoin under very special circumstances and as you can see the market of cryptocurrencies is not in the middle of an a scenario like that, during the whole year of 2019 bitcoin has been outperforming altcoins and now that the price of bitcoin is going down we do not see altcoins recovering but the opposite.

PayPal CEO Dan Schulman was interviewed, was asked if he owned cryptocurrencies. I believe this was the reply, in big letters,

In as much as i believe that crypto is in its early stage and its likely to increase much more later.  But buying every dip you see will just lead you huge and enormous loss. Before you buy the dip of any coin you see make sure you have done a proper research on if the project is likely to grow over time, if research is not done properly,  you end up buying plenty tokens that might never increase in price again.  To be safe take out time and study each project well before investing

You don't have to buy a whole Bitcoin just buy commensurate to what you can afford, some altcoins are good but with the coming halving the go to coin is definitely Bitcoin, I am buying on every dip and from my rewards from my current campaign, we should like an ant storing foods for the rainy days however small we stored, because it's going to worth it next year.
Yeah, we should buy some bitcoins that we can afford I think one should not stress himself about investing just buy as much as you think is suitable for you. So it’s good to buy at a low price because you will not have to spend so much but you will have so much profit. Investing at Dip and in normal routine has huge profit differences.

That's alright, buying altcoin can still give you profit at the right time, this market just move based on BTC movement and therefore we can expect that if the market will rise, its gonna be BTC that will lead it but like I said, the right time will come that altcoins will also rise.

personally, I also hold a lot of altcoins with almost worthless of value now, this is cause by the long bear market but I understand this is how it works because the pump created FOMO during the last bull run and the market was overvalued, so correction happened.
correction has occurred over the last 2 years making a lot of altcoin worthless, you are a great person still holding and holding your altcoin, maybe for new users to throw at cheap prices, I once got a message from my trade teacher, no one loses in trading except we sell cheap because of a need which means to sell cheap because it is forced and depressed ,, I want to see a change also in the next year that many people are waiting for it

Buying every dip is easy to say, but difficult to identify the dip (for me at least!)

Every time the price of bitcoin drops I am afraid of the point that it is going to stop or it will be ongoing for a long time. Looking at charts and trying to make my TA sometimes prove me wrong!

Yes, I agree with you, it's very easy to say, but it's quite difficult if practiced. for example, right now the price of bitcoin is down from $ 9,000 to $ 8,800 in my opinion this is a good opportunity to buy. but sometimes people are afraid that the value will go down again so they postpone buying hoping the price can drop even lower. but if I will still decide to buy even if the value of bitcoin goes down again I won't regret buying. because I'm sure that in the future bitcoin prices will pump even higher. I just need to wait and be patient until bitcoin is bullish.
Buying the dip is better practiced regularly, if you try to predict when the market has reached the bottom then you are going to be disappointed with your performance, it is better to buy bitcoin whenever you have some money available and the price is going down, on average you will obtain a better price than those that buy all the bitcoin they can in one go, but this strategy requires from you that you hold your coins for a long time before you see good gains.

Im going to disagree with the thread titled strategy for today and probably for this week as I think it might be best to take a breakout type buy or sell depending on where we move from here.



So on this cap if we are moving above 200 day average it could be taken as positive from there on, the speculators might actually want to take this level here with a tight stop loss, 8820 or above.     Then I do think its a sell if we can move past and confirm below the 50 day average which is about 8560.   On this occasion buying the dip is not that attractive to me, I only back that idea when its part of a regular pattern of both lows and highs and its too irregular right now.

So at what price level would you consider to "buy the dip" ?
For sure at this condition I think it’s much better to buy some coins at low price as we know market is low and price of these coins will be high after some years but at that time it will be hard to get profit in selling but we can make bright future by holding so that’s why I am dreaming to sell after year or more but now is the best time as market is at Dip these days.

And about which coins are you talking ? The regular Bitcoin Dip buy or some altcoins ?

Buying the dip I think only works in a bull market. During a bear market it gets trickier because there’s always going to be a lower price in the short term until it hits bottom.


Buying the dip during bear markets works as dollar-cost-averaging, to reduce your loss, and to lower your average-buying-price.

Wait a few months after the halving, you might regret not buying more.

This is the most fundamental strategy of staying safe in the world of crypto currencies. You are simply supposed to buy expensive coins like bitcoin when the market is down like it was this year. Why it is important to buy bitcoin specifically in dips? Because in pumps this is the most expensive coin and that is the ideal situation for cashing out profit. Right now market is great for buyers.

wrong. this is only important in "world of bitcoin" and basically any other asset that has a potential for rising or is on the rise. otherwise in "cryptocurrencies" this not true at all. most of them are in long term dumping mode forever with some short term pumps which means when you see a drop you can not call it a "dip" and it won't be worth buying it since after that drop there will be more drops unlike bitcoin where after the drop there is more rise instead.
actually if you are a typical trader who loves taking big risk , to buy every dip is your perfect way to gain big percentage of profit.

the risk could be worth , but if you are prefer to play it safe then i think to buy in the bearish run is a big mistake , you will feel that the drop is like never ending and guess what you will do? buy high sell low and buy high sell low again!
buy it on the bullish run if you want lower risk and sell it right after you have the profit in your pocket even it is only a little bit. that is how it works.

finding the real dip never easy , you have to monitor the movement every single minutes even seconds to get the very dip!

You have no other option. I joke about the whalecumulators, but what else can we plebs do? Buy the dip, and HODL! You do not want to end up empty handed on the next cycle, https://twitter.com/misir_mahmudov/status/1118243131584065537


I do believe when one is able of buying the DIP he should, but besides the DIP one should buy whenever he can like every monthly wage take a % of what you save and buy corn with it instead of all saving it in a dumb bankaccount ....
^
This of-course counts especially for those who have read a bit about BTC and have a believe that its here to stay....

people should do these two at the same time. meaning to set aside a portion of their money to buy bitcoin with but don't buy it right away when they get their paycheck for instance. they should instead try to look for a dip specially when the market is in sideways mode not a bull/bear run since during the bull run you want to buy right away without wasting any time but these days dips are more common and the bottoms are established already.
