When it comes to positioning during dips, there’s really no outrageous way to operate— even if you don't get to enjoy big profits, you can at least avoid pitfalls. Especially the lows that panic selling brings out, the probability of making money by picking them up is actually quite high.
Chasing the rise is another matter. Nine out of ten times you get hit hard, especially if you rush in after a rapid surge; a short-term pullback can leave you confused, and a few times like that can completely break your mindset.
In the end, it comes down to this: reliable trades start from reliable entry points. If the entry point is off, the probability of stop loss skyrockets, and the vicious cycle of chasing highs and selling lows is basically set.

Buying low is indeed appealing, but I'm afraid of misjudging and becoming a dumb buyer.

Buying low really is stable, I won't play the chase the price strategy anymore.
To be honest, once my mindset crumbled, I knew it's still necessary to wait for the panic selling.
The entry point is crucial; one position can change one's fate.
The feeling of being trapped after chasing high is absolutely terrible, I don't want to experience it a second time.
Building positions at low levels is the beginning of making money, I understand that now.
One still needs to have some patience, otherwise, they deserve to be played people for suckers.
If the stop loss isn't well managed, just wait for the momentum investing cycle, a classic case of self-inflicted suffering.
The price during a panic is the real deal, don't mess around.
I now only recognize this strategy: buy low and sell high; everything else is just fluff.
If the entry point is right, everything else will be easy to discuss.

Building positions at low points is indeed a retirement strategy, the key is to maintain a stable mindset—don't panic during fear-driven dumping, that is actually a good time for buying low and selling high.
Chasing prices, to put it bluntly, is just helping the market maker lift the sedan chair, and there's a high probability of becoming a dumb buyer [GT].
The entry position determines life and death, and I believe this. I've seen too many people turn from arbitrageurs into trapped individuals just because they missed a position by a little.

Buying the dip indeed has a high probability of making a profit, but how many can really hold on without moving? Every time I want to buy the dip, I end up being forced out before I even reach the bottom.

Buying on dips is truly the most stable way to live; chasing the price is an old trick that has long been overplayed.
