🚨Why Selling in August is a Big Mistake🚨

Markets look shaky. FUD is everywhere. But if you sell now, you could miss the best setup of the year.

Here’s why I’m staying patient and what I’m doing instead 🧵👇
1/x The fear is real:
🔸 Tariff headlines
🔸 Weak job data
🔸 Liquidity dip
🔸 ETF outflows

But zoom out, none of this changes the bigger picture. In fact, it’s setting up a perfect Q4 storm.

Let’s break it down.
2/x  Tariffs are just noise. Trump’s tariff pause now ends August 7. But he always uses tariffs as leverage, this is the same China playbook.

Markets might wobble short-term, but once the news is out, the uncertainty fades. Don’t panic sell on headlines.
3/x The recent weak jobs report actually boosts the odds of Fed cuts.

May & June job growth was revised down by 258K. That’s massive.

Markets went from 39% to 86% odds of a September rate cut. Easing is back on the table. Image
4/x The Treasury might pull $500B to refill its General Account, and yes, that could cause short-term chop.

But it’s not a liquidity collapse. It would still form a higher low on global liquidity charts.

But by Q4, we could get:
🔹 Rate cuts
🔹 QT pause
🔹 SLR exemption

August is the shakeout. September is the setup.
5/x Historically, August is #Bitcoin’s weakest month.

TradFi slows down. Volumes drop. Chop increases.

But seasonality isn't the same as bearish trend. A slow August doesn’t mean a bearish cycle, just a pause before a potential Q4 breakout. Image
6/x #Bitcoin dominance bounced off its 50-week moving average, just like in prior cycles.

If it climbs to 66%, altcoins will bleed.

But more likely, we get a lower high followed by a breakdown. Until we see that breakdown, low caps stay risky. Image
7/x  Let's take a look at $BTC:

🔹 Still far above $91.5K support.
🔹 $103K-$104K = healthy buy zone.
🔹 $140K-$150K target still intact.

A small dip today isn’t worth exiting. This is a market to buy, not sell. Image
8/x $ETH, $XRP, $SOL outlook:

🔹 $ETH looks solid as long as we stay above $2.7K.
🔹 $XRP needs to hold 0.000022 BTC and is still a buy between $2–$3.
🔹 $SOL has a must-hold $BTC ratio is 0.0012. That gives a USD floor around $110–$130. Still early on all three. Image
Image

Image
9/x The large caps are holding up and this is where I’m focused.

🔹 $BNB (undervalued + benefits from Project Crypto).
🔹 $ADA (regulatory clarity as a commodity).
🔹 $DOGE, $TRX, $HYPE (near support).

Focus on safer names first. Rotation always starts here. Image
Image
10/x My strategy right now is simple:

🔹 Stack $BTC, $ETH, $XRP, $SOL, $ADA.
🔹 Rotating into large caps near support.
🔹 Use grid bots to auto-buy dips and take profits.

No need to trade every move, let the bots work the chop while you position for Q4.
11/x Don’t get shaken out now.

Rate cuts, QT pause, and SLR easing are all on the horizon.

Stay focused, stay patient and if you want to automate your dip buys and sell targets:

How to Survive This Crypto Bull Run Without Losing Your Mind🧠

Altcoins pump, then dump. #Bitcoin dips, CT panics.

If you’re stuck between FOMO buying and panic selling, this thread is for you.

Here’s how to play this bull run with calm, conviction, and capital intact🧵👇
1/x Every bull market has two traps:
🔻 Panic selling after a red candle.
🚀 FOMO buying every time an alt pumps 30%.

This cycle is no different but if you want to thrive, not just survive, you need a long-term mindset.

Here’s how I’m approaching it👇
2/x 1️⃣ Don’t overreact to small dips.

When the market pulls back 3-5%, it’s not the end of the cycle. If you're panicking, you’re either:
❌ Overexposed to microcaps.
❌ Overleveraged.
✅ Or just emotionally exhausted from 2022.

The bull run isn’t over, it’s still early.

🚨New Buy Zones for #Bitcoin and #Altcoins🚨

$BTC and altcoins have pumped hard but in every bull run, corrections happen.

I've updated buy zones for all major coins using grid bots.

If you’re DCA’ing or trading, these levels will help you buy dips smartly.

Let’s dive in🧵👇
1/x Altcoins are finally gaining traction but this isn’t a confirmed altseason yet.

Bitcoin dominance has dropped 4 weeks straight, though it's now bouncing off key support (50W SMA).

If it breaks below again, that’s the altseason trigger. Image
2/x Let’s have a look at the $BTC bot

🔹Buy range: $89,380
🔹Target: $200K

This aligns with the 20-week SMA, a historically strong bounce zone. If price chops between $90K–$120K, this bot thrives.

Bot is up 13.8% since July 1, compounding consistently.

🚨#Ethereum Nears All-Time High: 10 Altcoins Set to Explode🚨

$ETH is heating up and if it breaks ATH, Ethereum linked altcoins could go parabolic.

Here are the top 10 tokens most likely to pump and what not to touch.

Let’s dive in and front-run the crowd🧵👇
1/x First, a warning: Altcoin season is NOT confirmed yet.

Yes, $ETH looks strong but it’s still lagging $BTC, and ETH/BTC hasn’t broken out.

We're entering Week 5 of BTC dominance falling. In Week 6 last time, alt gains got erased.

Give it 1–2 weeks more, patience as always is key here.Image
2/x Don’t ape every $ETH token just because ETH is moving.

Let’s separate signal from noise. This thread will cover:

✅ ETH-linked altcoins with momentum.
✅ The stablecoin + RWA narrative institutions are backing.
✅ ETH-native memes.
🚫 Narratives to skip.

🚨Bitcoin Breaks $120K, Is It Time for Altseason?🚨

$BTC just hit a new ATH at $123,000. But where are the altcoin pumps?

I’ve gone back through the last 3 $BTC breakouts to find patterns and the signs are finally lining up.

Here's what to expect next for $ETH, $SOL, $XRP, and the rest🧵👇
1/x Bitcoin is deep in price discovery.

But altcoin momentum has lagged, and many large caps haven’t moved.

Let’s look at what happened after previous breakouts.
2/x Every $BTC breakout since mid-2023 led to altcoin rallies:

🔸$30K ➡️ $44K
🔸$45K ➡️ $71K
🔸$71K ➡️ $105K (after Trump’s win)

Each move gave altcoins a 3–5 week window to run hard.

Then $BTC consolidates, dominance rises, and gains get erased. Image

🚨 #Bitcoin Hits New All-Time High! 🚨

We're at $118,000 per $BTC. Is this the start of the real crypto bull run?

And more importantly, is alt season next?

Let’s break down the key signals, Fed policy shifts, and trade setups I’m watching🧵👇
1/x Bitcoin breaking ATH is huge but it’s not the whole story.

We’ve seen this setup before: $BTC leads, alts lag until liquidity shifts.

So today we’re diving into:
🔹 $BTC & altcoin technicals.
🔹Liquidity trends.
🔹My bot setups.
🔹Why Q4 could change everything.
2/x First, Bitcoin’s market structure:

The 50-week SMA (~$87K) is the bull market line. Every dip near the 20-week SMA has been a value buy for 2 years.

✅Above 50W = bullish trend intact.
✅Below 20W = prime DCA zone.

That’s your playbook. Image

My Crypto Trading Plan for This Summer📈

#Bitcoin is in a clear bull market. Altcoins? Still lagging badly.

So here’s how I’m trading crypto this summer

A strategy built for today’s market, not the last cycle 🧵👇
1/x This cycle is playing out differently.

Bitcoin has completely decoupled from the rest of the market.

So I’ve split my entire strategy into two separate plans:
1️⃣One for $BTC.
2️⃣One for altcoins.

You can’t treat everything the same anymore.
2/x For #Bitcoin, my playbook is simple and technical.

I use two indicators on TradingView:
🔹The 20-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) = entry trigger.
🔹The 50-week SMA = bull market confirmation,

Right now, my next ideal buy zone is around $94K–$95K.

As long as $BTC holds above ~$83K (the 50W SMA), it’s still in a clean uptrend.
