As for the other questions...what month from now until spring training do you think will be the best for price hunting? When do you predict the next peak will come?
And here are my most recent pick ups!

I feel like spring training hype starts earlier and earlier every season. It was to the point where we didn't see much of a dip in the off season last year. To be honest (and I'd need to look further), but we may be near the low end of Ohtani pricing, at least for rarer cards. The disappointment of him slumping already has some impatient people cutting bait. I'd probably start picking some stuff now that has seen substantial dips and slowly add later in the year. Like any investment, nobody times it 100% correctly.
I just picked up that Bowman Blue auto that popped up and sold. The seller was antsy and relisted it for best offer after a deadbeat bid and accepted 7.5. That's comparatively a steal to where base is ending ($5k+). I'll gladly cash out an impatient seller with house money.
