C Correct answer
Explanation

Investment strategies like cost averaging (investing fixed amounts regularly), value averaging (maintaining a target portfolio value through varying investments), and active switching (moving between funds based on market conditions) are all behavioral tools that must align with the investor's psychological risk tolerance. Market conditions (Options A and D) may influence when to apply these strategies, and investment amount (Option B) affects feasibility, but the fundamental decision of which strategy to adopt depends on risk tolerance. Option C is correct.
