Study Shows Market Timing Offers Little Advantage Over Dollar Cost Averaging for Crypto Investors
-
Analysts find negligible difference in monthly returns between bull and bear markets for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Timing the market is difficult.
-
Long term macro cycles and liquidity conditions are better indicators for buying decisions than market conditions.
-
Market timing historically has not led to consistent outperformance, especially long term. Patience is key.
-
Successful investors recommend dollar cost averaging (DCA) over trying to time the market.
-
DCA removes price concerns, establishes order, and eliminates volatility. It works magic long term.
