I'm trying a new strategy where I scale in on BTC dips. Like, I bought a little at 71000, then a bit more at 70700. My thinking is, if it keeps dropping, I get a better average price. But if it bounces, I'm already in. Gotta be careful with leverage tho, don't want to get rekt. Anyone else do this?

oh and another thing about scaling IN... I'm using the Bollinger Bands as a guide. Like, if BTC hits the lower band, I'll add to my position. But if it breaks through, I'll hold off. it's not foolproof but seems to help me avoid catching a falling knife lol
Hi @lwilson17, that scaling in strategy sounds pretty smart, especially for a beginner like me! I'm still a bit scared to use too much leverage, but trying to get better with managing risk. I like your idea of using the Bollinger Bands as a signal for adding more. That makes sense – if it’s hitting the lower band, it’s definitely looking like a dip.
I haven't really tried scaling in like that yet, usually I just enter once and set my TP and SL. But seeing the price drop today has made me think about different entry methods. It’s a bit scary though, because what if the lower band just keeps breaking? Did you have a specific stop loss in mind for those scaled-in positions, or do you just let them run until they hit a certain average price?
