Bottom-fishing is all about timing and patience. During consolidation phases, many people tend to be drawn in at high levels to provide liquidity, only to get trapped later. Instead of rushing in and losing money, it’s more prudent to stagger your entries. Set your target price levels and enter in two or three stages, which helps avoid being caught all at once and leaves room for flexibility. The key is not to chase highs; let the market come to you rather than chasing the market. The process of waiting for the right opportunity is often the hardest, but patience at this time is usually the most valuable.
