Buy high sell low means FOMO. Entry price is important. Buy to reap profits, not to try your luck. Preparation, do our homework before any purchase. Patience is more important in a volatile market. Volatility is best time for trading, akin to gambling. Company fundamentals should guide investors, not traders, in stock purchase, so that you can assure that the stock will eventually rise in the long term.
Buy high only hurts when you don't have holding power and force to sell low. Buy high hurts more if the company is making losses and may take years to turn from red to green.
Buy high hurts the most if you keep DCA down, and the share price keep going down and down, with little chance to average the price. And you sell either losing hope or lack of holding power.
Just sharing views only since invited by Tiger to chat on this topic of Buy High Vs Sell Low.
Ultimately to be in the market depends on our own persona investment objectives and psychology.
Best wishes
