If it bottoms at 40, and you still have cash to buy, your method works. But if it bottoms at 100, you end up with a trivial-sized position. That’s why I do simple old-fashioned $-cost averaging. Your method is safer, but misses opportunities. If I have spent the time to study and follow a stock, I want to end up with a meaningful position.

For example: I have a meaningful position in BABA, at prices from 160 to 110. So my method doesn’t always work perfectly….
