I have come to understand and appreciate the saying that "little drops of water make a mighty ocean", the DCA method of buying Bitcoin brought me to that understanding. I have had this poor mindset of making huge profits from trading thereafter, invest part of it into Bitcoin holding as a hedge to my trading. This mindset have held me moving round the same cycle of profits and losses for over two years with no progress despite the pains and psychological torture that comes with losing streak in trading. Little did I know that buying little by little would have made me achieve even bigger results than I was targeting through trading. It was when I started being active in this forum I noticed that there is something called Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) that enable someone buy Bitcoin even with small amount of money on a regular basis. I embraced it and it has changed my life!
Today I am a proud Bitcoin investor, with a portfolio that I can call an achievement even though it may not be something too big for some people. I am not making this post because of Bitcoin is rising in price, my focus is on the quantity of Bitcoin and not necessarily the dollar value. Besides, the DCA method has molded me to appreciate bear markets because that is the opportunity to collect more Bitcoin at lower prices.
I am sure there are many people with similar thing to say about the DCA method because I have engaged in many discussions where a good number of forum users confirmed to be using the DCA method, so I expect they will also be proud of what they have achieved through it.
To those who really helped in sharing their wealth of knowledge free of charge in this forum like @JayJuanGee, @Wind_FURY, @tranthidung and many others, you are all highly appreciated.
It's my father's favorite quote too, he believes in savings and he is old school but he evolved very quickly, he knew savings his old and he even recommended investing in new assets, today, savings aren't bad but investment just makes things more easier for you than savings.
A little drop of water thus makes a mighty ocean, only if you believe, many people see savings or slow growth as a waste of time but it's not, and in this crypto space, you need to use the DCA method because it has better accumulation advantage, since bitcoin value isn't waiting for anyone, buying bit by bit is the best buying strategy after all.
Practice makes perfect, and a little drop of water makes a mighty ocean, these two lesson quotes goes well together, growing slowly makes you stronger, your foundation will be as hard as rock but may people lacks the patience, they want to make money very quickly, that's why many are not even into Bitcoin investment today, and they are missing out big.
