But all u hear is just "buy the dip," and nothing practical.
Here’s the first detailed playbook on how to buy the dip.
(+ tips on how to hold through 1000x) 🧵👇

Before I start this mega-thread...
Most people would charge $1,000+ for this info, but I’m sharing it FREE cause I’ve been through it and want to help others who are still in the trenches.
That’s why don’t forget to follow me, like this & repost⬇️⬇️⬇️

1/➮ Buying the dip means buying at the lowest possible price
The question immediately arises: how and who can predict this?
The answer is no one can
But we can get as close as possible to it by having the right strategy👇
⬇️⬇️⬇️
2/➮ "Buying the dip" consists of 3 factors that need to be followed for max success:
- when to buy
- what to buy
- how to buy
If we have the answers to these questions, we’ll successfully buy the dip
Let's dive into each one:
⬇️⬇️⬇️
3/➮ When to buy
To understand when to buy, let's look at the typical bull run pattern
It looks like this: Halving -> 18 months -> ATH
This entire period can be divided into two phases: growth and peak
Now, let's break down the stages in more detail
⬇️⬇️⬇️

4/➮ Bull Run Stages
Growth: The stage where you need to accumulate your positions and build your portfolio, lasts for ~14 months
Peak: The stage where you need to actively take profits from your positions and move them into stables lasts for ~4 months

5/➮ Bull Run Cycle Psychology
An additional method that will help you navigate is the Wall Street Cheat Sheet
It clearly shows the bull run chart and its psychology
Evaluate the situation in the crypto community and estimate which stage you're in

6/➮ What to Buy
Everyone wants to make maximum profit, 100x and more, but the main thing is not to lose it all
You can make 50%-100% profit on $BTC or $ETH
But the real profits rn come from altcoins (AI, DePin, RWA, AI Agents, Memecoins)
⬇️⬇️⬇️
7/➮ Build a portfolio with both long-term plays like $BTC, $ETH, $SOL
As well as short-term on-chain plays like low-caps/memes
This way, you balance the risk % of your portfolio through diversification
Also, remember to keep a % in stables
⬇️⬇️⬇️
8/➮ Now we've discussed when to buy and what can be bought in general
But the main aspect of "buy the dip" is the correct execution of the purchase.
For this, we will use the cost-averaging strategy
Let me explain more
⬇️
9/➮ Cost-averaging strategy in simple terms, is buying in parts, lowering the avg buy price
For example, with a $1k portfolio, it will look like this:
- 1st buy $100
- 2nd buy $200
- 3rd buy $300
- 4th buy $400
But we need also to know when exactly to buy by such parts:

10/➮ Usually, it's best to use $BTC as the baseline price
So, as soon as $BTC drops by 5-7%, we buy more
Also, remember that altcoins/memes drop by 10%-20% during this time
It's important to understand that some altcoins don’t react to $BTC's price movements
⬇️
11/➮ Let's summarize our cost-averaging strategy, and it will look like this:
$BTC drops by 5% -> 1st buy $100 -> $BTC drops another 5% -> 2nd buy $200, etc
This way, we will minimize the average buy price and get closer to buying the dip

⬇️
12/➮ Knowing when to buy, what to buy, and how will definitely lead you to buy the dip.
But for successfully taking profits and building a portfolio, u also need good risk management strategy

1. Overdiversifying Your Portfolio
Mistake: Holding 20+ altcoins spreads your capital too thin, diluting your potential returns.
Solution: Prioritize 5–10 solid, high-conviction projects with real utility or growth potential.
Why It Matters: A $1,000 portfolio spread across 20 coins offers little impact. Concentrate on quality to maximize your gains while managing risk.
2. Failing to Take Profits
Mistake: Holding indefinitely, expecting prices to rise forever.
Solution: Set realistic price targets and systematically take profits as you go.
Example: A $10,000 portfolio can quickly drop to $2,000 in a flash crash if profits aren’t locked in. Take gains incrementally to secure your success.
3. Falling for FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)
Mistake: Buying coins after a massive pump, hoping for more.
Solution: Focus on accumulating promising tokens during low-activity phases.
Tip: The best opportunities arise when you invest early or during corrections—not when chasing hype-fueled price spikes.
4. Ignoring Emerging Trends
Mistake: Sticking to outdated projects while skipping new, promising narratives.
Solution: Diversify across strong narratives like Layer 1 blockchains, AI tokens, gaming, or real-world assets (RWAs).
Why It Matters: Missing trends like DeFi in 2020 or NFTs in 2021 can leave you out of the biggest gains this cycle.
5. Trading with Emotions
Mistake: Letting fear, panic, or greed dictate your trades.
Solution: Create and stick to a logical, research-backed plan for all trades.
Tip: Emotional decisions lead to overtrading and poor timing. Remember, markets recover faster than emotions.
6. Lack of a Strategy
Mistake: Trading without clear entry/exit points or profit goals.
Solution: Document your buy levels, sell targets, and overall strategy before entering the market.
Example: If $1,000 grows to $10,000, take partial profits to lock in gains while sticking to your plan for the remainder.
7. Leaving Funds on Centralized Exchanges
Mistake: Trusting centralized exchanges with all your funds.
Solution: Transfer funds to secure hardware wallets like Ledger, Tangem, or Trezor.
Lesson: Exchange collapses (e.g., FTX) have wiped out billions. Don’t gamble your security—control your keys.
8. Believing in Unrealistic Targets
Mistake: Expecting 1000x returns on every project without understanding market dynamics.
Solution: Analyze market caps, fundamentals, and growth potential to set achievable goals.
Reality Check: A $1 billion market cap token is unlikely to reach $1 trillion. Focus on what’s possible.
9. Ignoring Taxes
Mistake: Forgetting to track your gains, losses, and transactions.
Solution: Use tools like Koinly, CoinTracker, or similar platforms for compliance and planning.
Reminder: Taxes can significantly impact your net profits. Stay ahead to avoid surprises during tax season.
10. Skipping Your Own Research (DYOR)
Mistake: Blindly trusting influencer calls or market hype.
Solution: Dive into a project’s whitepaper, tokenomics, partnerships, and real-world use cases.
Example: Memecoins may see short-term pumps but often lack sustainable value. Don’t end up holding worthless tokens.
11. Bonus Tips for a Winning Edge
Time Management
Mistake: Spending hours staring at charts without taking action.
Solution: Use your time effectively to learn technical analysis, market cycles, or behavioral psychology.
Smart Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA)
Mistake: Going all-in during market peaks.
Solution: Invest gradually through DCA to lower your average cost and mitigate risk.
Follow the Whales
Tip: Monitor whale wallets—they often signal where smart money is flowing. Use tools like Etherscan or Whale Alert.
Celebrate Small Wins
Tip: Lock in profits as you go and reward yourself. Waiting for massive gains can lead to missed opportunities.
Risk Management
Tip: Never invest more than you can afford to lose. Always use stop-losses to protect against downturns.
Portfolio Tracking
Tip: Tools like CoinGecko, Zapper, or Delta help you manage and rebalance your portfolio efficiently.
Final Words: Build Smart, Grow Big
This bull run could be your chance to achieve life-changing gains—but only if you approach it wisely. Stay informed, disciplined, and strategic. Bookmark this guide and refer back whenever needed. Play smart. Stay safe. Profit big. Let’s dominate this bull run—one calculated move at a time!
