This is my ULTIMATE guide to managing a #crypto portfolio.
Here I show you EXACTLY how I manage my portfolio. Including how I manage my #alts, my #hodl bags and what I do when I want to go full degen and ape into shitcoins.

1/ -- PORTFOLIO SPLIT ---
I split my portfolio into three sub-portfolios
HODL (40%) - I don't touch this much other than to DCA.
Trading (55%) - Where I take most positions I share on CT.
Ape (5%) - More on this later.
2/ -- HODL ---
My HODL portfolio is simple. It currently holds $BTC, $ETH, $SOL, $LUNA n $LTC.
I've taken profit aggressively on SOL and LUNA though.
Even though this is a HODL portfolio I occasionally TP everything that isn't BTC or ETH.
3/ -- Trading ---
This is my day-to-day portfolio that I use to invest in medium/low risk projects.
I manage these trades regularly by taking profit and resistance and buying back at support. Some of my biggest bags in this portfolio atm are $GMT and $PYR. I'll share more below.
4/ -- Ape ---
We all have a little bit of degen inside us. That's why we trade crypto and not stocks.
My ape portfolio is for letting the degen out and apeing into unresearched, high risk, shitcoins when I just want to burn some money.
5/ -- Cheat Sheet --
Here is a handy little cheat sheet that breaks down the above. Keep reading for a more in-depth breakdown ๐
6/ -- Stable --
Keeping stable sidelined is vital for buying dips.
In a bull market I keep min 20% stable on my Trading portfolio and 10% in my HODL.
In a bear market I keep min 60% stable on my Trading portfolio and 40% in my HODL. I aim for more stable though!
7/ -- Stable cont --
My Ape portfolio is 100% stable unless I'm apeing at which point I risk at most half of it per trade.
8/ -- Why Ape? --
Sometimes taking dumb undisciplined trades is fun, which is why I allocate 5% of my portfolio to apeing.
This way I can satiate that thirst for degen trades without it impacting me too badly if I lose.
9/ -- Ape Losses --
The 5% of my capital allocated to my Ape portfolio isn't counted towards my total capital on my tracking spreadsheet.
Psychologically this helps because I consider the capital already lost. So if I ape into a trade and get rugged I don't care.
10/ -- HODL & DCA --
I move gains made in my Ape and Trading portfolios over to my HODL weekly which allows me to DCA into $BTC and $ETH.
In a proper bear market, I'll narrow my HODL portfolio down to BTC n ETH and hodl just those two. They are the only safe bets.
11/ -- Staking --
I put my stable to work for me by staking it for high APY. 4% to 19% depending on where it's staked.
I stake different stables in different places to spread my risk. $UST $USDT $USDC $DAI and I'll do $USN soon too.
12/ -- Current Holdings --
HODL - Mostly $BTC and $ETH n little $LTC n $METIS. Sold most $SOL n $LUNA.
Trading - Biggest holds are $GMT, $PYR, $UOS, $NEAR & $ILV. I've taken enough profit on all of these to be way up even if they dump!
Ape - Nothing atm.
13/ -- Vesting --
I am an early investor in several projects which I am vested into for up to 2 years.
I do not calculate vested amounts as crypto holdings.
If I did then 95% of my capital would be in crypto but I couldn't take profit ๐

Here are 30 or so #crypto tiips, divided into categories for your reading pleasure.

1/ -- MANAGING MONEY --
- When you're up 100% take your seed investment out.
- Stake stable for APY. Your money should always be working for you.
- Split your portfolio up between HODL cryptos like $BTC n $ETH and medium/high risk plays.
2/ -- FOMO & GREED --
- Never chase big green candles, wait for a retrace.
- Get used to missing out, you can't catch every move.
- Get used to losing, you can't always be right.
- Cutting losses and moving on is often better than waiting for a bad investment to turn around.
1/ Most people should be investing long term and not trading. Just DCA and #HODL.
But how?
It's actually easy to DCA in #Crypto, here is a guide.
-- PICK YOUR CRYPTOS --
Pick five, I would day $BTC, $ETH, $LUNA, $SOL and $MATIC or a dinasour like $LTC or $ADA
2/ -- SPLIT --
You need to decide on a split. In my HODL portfolio, I've started focussing on #Bitcoin as my biggest hold. My split is 30% $BTC, 20% $ETH, 20% $LUNA, 20% $SOL and 10% $LTC.
Everyone has their own opinion on what to HODL and what not to and splits. You do you.
3/-- AMOUNT --
Calculate an amount of fiat per month you can contribute to buying crypto. This should be money you can afford to lose. Once you know the amount you can move on to the next step ๐
1/ Finding a 10x project in this bearish #crypto market isn't easy if you don't know what to look for.
Here are a few tips on EXACTLY what I look for when researching a project.

2/ -- TEAM --
I always look for a good team with experience and connections. I basically turn into a stalker and find out everything I can about the team. Who are they working with? Who have they worked with in the past? Do they have connections with big exchanges?
3/ -- TEAM cont --
This info is found on google, Twitter, LinkedIn, articles, press releases and sometimes by asking people. A team with exchange connections or who has worked with exchanges can get fast-tracked to exchange listing. Also, a team with experience is always ๐
