Do you still have the guts to keep buying the dip？
My $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ are tanking so hard, they're almost extinct! It's a total bloodbath, I'm telling ya![]()
Let's be real, I'm getting cold feet about diving in to catch this falling knife. But thank my lucky stars, I'm not in too deep! So if this rollercoaster keeps plummeting, I reckon it might just cough up a golden opportunity. As for my dip-buying strategy? I've got my eagle eyes on these 2key areas![]()
1.Dollar-Cost Averaging into US Stocks
Dollar-cost averaging into Nasdaq-related opportunities - the deeper it dips, the more I'm gonna scoop up! The VIX index has actually taken quite a tumble lately. And you know what? When volatility shoots through the roof like this, history shows we're often in for a short-term bounce. Don't believe me? Just feast your eyes on these stats below!
So, for a quick play, you might want to dip your toes in now. The easiest way? $Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ.US)$ $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ $NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$ is your ticket! If you're looking at a medium-term strategy, you might want to consider setting up a dollar-cost averaging plan. Moomoo's got this feature down pat - it's pretty slick if you ask me. Just a few clicks to set it up, and you're good to go!
Let's talk about the S&P 500's historical nosedives. This current dip hasn't hit the -20% mark yet, but hold onto your hats - we've seen a stomach-churning plunge of over -10% in just two days! You know how rare that is? We're talking only four times in more than half a century!
October 1987
November 2008
March 2020
April 2025
The first three times were all opportunities to get rich, provided you survived. That's why position sizing is crucial
2.short volatility
Historically, the probability of the VIX index maintaining levels above 45 has been relatively low. Therefore, a decline in the VIX could present a good opportunity. If the VIX continues to surge to levels of 50 or 60, and subsequently retreats to around 40, this would actually create an opportunity to short volatility
As for how to short volatility, I believe there are two main approaches
①Directly buying inverse volatility ETFs ( $ProShares Short VIX Short-Term Futures ETF (SVXY.US)$ + $-1x Short VIX Futures ETF (SVIX.US)$ )
②Buying $CBOE Volatility S&P 500 Index (.VIX.US)$ puts or longing calls on inverse volatility ETFs is an excellent strategy. The options feature on Moomoo is very useful for this, and I use it frequently. It's fantastic!

Keiith : You think NVDA’s dip is worth averaging into now or wait for more carnage?
Tliet : Bro, my NVDA bags are HEAVY right now… you really think this is a buying opportunity?
WoodYouLikeSomeCash : Do not buy for another few months. Retail is the only one buying, once that steams runs out we will see a free fall.
