Buy The Dip (BTD)
strategy · meme
Buying after a price drop in the hope that the decline is temporary and the asset will recover.
Buy The Dip (BTD) means purchasing an asset after a decline, usually because the buyer believes the long-term thesis remains intact or the market overreacted. It is a form of market timing and can fail if the decline reflects real deterioration.
BTD became a crypto meme because volatile markets create frequent pullbacks. The phrase should not replace risk management, position sizing, or checking whether liquidity, security, or fundamentals changed.
