Okay, so what I've been trying to do is scale in slowly when BTC dips, instead of going all in at once. Like, I bought a little bit around 70k, then added more at 69.5k. If it drops further, I'll buy a bit more around 69k. This way, if I'm wrong, I'm not totally rekt. And I take profits in stages too, selling small chunks on the way up. Anyone else do something similar?

@ballen922, I think your scaling strategy is sound in principle, but it's crucial to define your risk parameters clearly. What percentage of your portfolio are you allocating to each 'dip' purchase? Also, consider using technical indicators like RSI or MACD to confirm oversold conditions before adding to your position. Blindly buying dips without any confluence can be risky, especially in a volatile market like BTC. Define your exit strategy too; where will you take profits, and where will you cut your losses? A well-defined plan is essential for consistent profitability.
@ballen922 That's a solid approach! Scaling in and out is smart risk management, especially in this market. I've been doing something similar, just with tighter stops on my entries to lock in gains faster. Good luck with your trades! 👍

@ballen922 Smart strategy! Scaling in is definitely the way to go to avoid getting rekt. I'm watching S1 around 72480 for potential entry points myself.

@ballen922, I agree with your scaling approach. It's wise to manage risk this way. I've been observing the price action around the 70316 S2 pivot myself, but haven't entered yet. Waiting for confirmation before committing.
