You write and reply so many posts, in the end all no point. No conclusion on what you're trying to emphasis.

Reminds me of an action movie I watched in the past.. it was pretty hyped that time. So much special effects boom here and and there, with sword fighting, robots somemore.. but the whole movie no plot, no character development.. as I watched it halfway decided I have enough and switched off the TV. 

Yea.. your posts remind me of that movie. 

You like all hampsap things? hehe

He really something else. One off.

In hot markets, the sexy thing to do is play tops.
Bad markets? Play those with rounded bottoms.

You play at the rounded bottoms once, then if there is another rounded bottoms next to it and you have new money, what do you do? Ignore or DCA? Assuming fundamentals still strong.

For me, my thought process is the same as yours. But I wanted to know what is Boon Gor's approach but he went silent on this part. Doesn't want to tell me.

Hi I think he is a trader then one common strategy to earn monies is to do shorting on stock when it is on a downward trend. You sell "empty" stock shares to buyers. Then later you buy back the same stock at a lower price so effectively you earn the difference. But some brokers place limits for this shorting. You need to have funds before you make the purchase or hold the shares before you can sell "empty". You need to settle the buy trade before you can do a sell trade for the same stock.  There are a lot more strategies besides that and to me those are highly trading strategy not investing strategy depending how you look at it. Once you know he is a trader mindset you can understand why DCA is not a good strategy for them. They earn monies through trade and within a single trading day in out so many times with a single aim to make monies.

If he has revealed earlier he is a trader then I can understand all his posts. Now I get it. But to me as investor DCA is a viable strategy.

for spx and dca lovers... fib channel on log scale



blue arrows show the zero line, touched a few times in the past... yellow numbers are how many fib levels dropped from high... and generally it takes twice as long to recover vs the drop...

soft landing could bottom in 2024 @2800 points... trump wins and pump market ath again... or ww3... lol...

didn't bother with fibonacci time... that can give some indication when bottom... chart just shows where it has been... we can speculate where it might go next is all... charting is a planning/observation tool... not crystal ball...

anyways... your money your choice... i'm firm believer in learning hands-on good or bad... as long as don't get injured or dead... after all money is only money... 

lol... a lot of bs... and edca might as well go full martingale... lol

fact is a lot of ppl can only dca because waiting for payday... and must buy something... and not financial savvy enough...

anyways...

"Although averaging down offers some aspects of a strategy, it is incomplete. Averaging down is really an action that comes more from a state of mind than from a sound investment strategy. Averaging down allows an investor to cope with various cognitive or emotional biases. It acts more as a security blanket than a rational policy.

The problem with averaging down is that the average investor has very little ability to distinguish between a temporary drop in price and a warning signal that prices are about to go much lower.

Proponents of the technique view averaging down as a cost-effective approach to wealth accumulation; opponents view it as a recipe for disaster.

This strategy is often favored by investors who have a long-term investment horizon and a value-driven approach to investing. Investors that follow carefully constructed models they trust might find that adding exposure to a stock that is undervalued, using careful risk-management techniques, can represent a worthwhile opportunity over time."

2. Buying the good stock but at the wrong price.

Isn't this what most are seeing now? They bought XXX. It's not that XXX suddenly has gone bad or what not. Fundamentals are sill strong. But... they over paid for it. For example, paying over 200 times earnings for XXX.

When market goes bad... naturally XXX could only fall to below 100 times earnings or even 80 or lower.... which means the stock price could really fall.

Again... addressing this issue from day one is much better than contemplating to average down that earlier mistake.

Intel plans to catch up to TSMC by year 2025, let's see if they can:

I would say Putin too soft on this war, This war was created by Nato and US, not Russia

In this view, probably next year 2023 may spike another War, but we don't know who, respect the cycle

no he is correct...

when gorby dismantled ussr... it was because nato/usa promised gorby not to expand nato membership and eastward expansion towards Moscow... Ukraine was part of ussr at the time...

nato and usa have since renegade on the deal... expanding nato and slowly ostracized Russia from the international arena... putin is painted into a corner... has repeatedly ask nato/USA not to include Ukraine... nato/USA only have to say ok...

most of the world problems is because of USA... BTW the Israel problem is created by USA/UN...

Hey guys,

Let's not escalate the Ukraine-Russia war disputes in this thread.

How about continue to talk about what's next for the market and how we can make money! 

I think likely SPY wants to revisit 375 area shortly. We may have to follow the bears track for a while.
Time to put some small bets in place.

US Fed wants throw in full 100bps next week.. let's be ready for it.

Also, dont' forget, it's Quad Witching this Friday... need to make some moolah by weekend.

Whatcha think? 

Did some buying today. But we have still some ways and time to go till bottom i believe.

Yesterday bull trap. Lol.

For myself,.. I'll buy when the mkt goes down.

ADBE 250? Covid low still tak cukup? 

Watching now, bro,... 

Watching now,...     

But in a high interest rate environment, these techs may not reach back their previous high-flying prices anymore. Their valuations would have been reduced a lot due to higher borrowing costs.
