For many years, investors have maintained a rather simplistic, almost dogmatic, approach to investing. This strategy entailed purchasing an asset that you believed would head higher- and holding it until it became profitable. Generally speaking, this approach was most applied to the equities markets and was further reinforced by Wall Street. If an investment would go against you, your broker might advise you to “cost average” your investment. If you wanted to “take your profits” or “cut your losses” they might quickly remind you that “market-timing” has historically underperformed a typical buy and hold strategy.
