Of course, it signals the beginning of bull period but patience must be exercised. I agree with you that having a good plan is important. However, this is often not enough. Most investors lack basic understanding of the market and that, more than any other reasons, is what usually cause FUD. The negative or outside influence like government attempt at regulation is, to me, the secondary cause of FUD. When investors educate themselves well, they will not panic when the price of cryptos tumble. They will recognize when to join the bull run or hodl on. The bottom line is to have a good plan and be well-educated about crypto investment.
