Buy now or wait for the dip? The trader's dilemma amid the altcoin correction?
The crypto market remains in mixed territory this morning. While some altcoins show recovery, others continue to correct slightly. This context presents the classic dilemma for many investors:
Is it time to buy now or is it better to wait for a deeper correction?
Conflicting strategies:
1. DCA – Dollar Cost Averaging:
Buy in parts over time, regardless of the current price.
Advantages:
• Reduces the risk of buying at the peak.
• Allows for accumulation without stress or technical precision.
• Good for long-term accumulation.
2. Wait for the dip:
Patience to enter when the market shows signs of greater weakness.
Advantages:
• Better entry points if the market falls further.
• Allows for calm analysis of key support areas.
Risk:
• You could miss the movement if the “dip” never arrives.
Market signals today:
• $XRP and $ADA continue to show strength.
• $HBAR and $ONDO maintain slight bearish pressure.
• $BTC remains above $104K, consolidating without major movements, while $ETH stands out with +3.16%, indicating possible reactivation of institutional interest in smart contracts.
The market is in a phase of definition. Whatever your strategy, the important thing is to have a plan and execute it with discipline.
