New to the world of Bitcoin I'm an amateur who's yet to dive into the game of cryptocurrency. I've never even played around in stock markets. Ok so the price of Bitcoin fluctuates, and you can do things like buy, sell, trade, wire transfer, and even cash out. But here's my question.

Can I walk away from the table temporarily and come back in at a later time or date? I'm a guy that likes to pick his spots, sort of speak. Can you pull in and pull out as you wish? Or are my options only to remain on the table, buy, sell, trade our cash out? 

I wouldn't want to have to buy back in at a higher price.

Sure you can. 

It isn't a perfect analogy, but think about bitcoin as if it were a dollar bill in your pocket. Some people will obtain a dollar bill, and then stash it away in a safe, not touching it for years. Others will take that dollar bill straight to the casino, keeping it on the table to bet and play with. 

There is no requirement to continuously buy/sell, bitcoin is not some sort of game. It is just an asset you can own, and do with as you see fit.
