How to play these big $BTC dumps in a bull market:

I'm going to give you some things to think about when trading/reacting to these #Bitcoin events. Probably will just be a long list of rambling thoughts. Image -If you're not around, on your computer during these events, probably skip it. Don't trade; the first few minutes are SO important to catching any sort of dip or shorting. This is VERY important to understand. Late longing/shorting 15 minutes means you've missed most of the move

It's really important to understand that Altcoins DONT always move up in USDT value when #Bitcoin is mooning/going strong.

Take a look at $BTC during the start of its strong run at the end of 2020.

$ETH #Altcoins

Short thread Image After spending most of 2020 in hibernation/chop/consolidation zone (after the March 2020 black swan event), BTC started to fucking moon. It went from 10k to 40k in the span of just a few months. Image

1 of the coins I want to add for a long swing trade this cycle is an alt layer 1

We've seen some huge moves for some of them recently: $SEI $NEON $TIA Monad and others.

Why are these types of coins really good bets for the next cycle? Short ideas below

Image

Image
Alt layer 1s have always been around during different altseasons.

2017 we had $EOS $NEO $TRX and others

2021 we had $SOL $LUNA $AVAX

2024 we're going to have all of the above coins and several others. Probably some sort of ZK narrative coming up as well.

Having different portfolios for different strategies is very key as a crypto investor.

You can do it how you want but how I do it:

1) HODL stack ( $BTC and $ETH)
2) Investment stack (usually lower cap shitcoins)
3) Swing trade stack
4) Short term / scalp stack Image 1) HODL stack: usually $BTC $ETH and sometimes 1-2 other alts. I don't usually touch these much, just let it sit until the bull run.

Why? Because I know I'm going to fuck it up and trade and lose this $ in choppy environments. It's better to always have a safety net

December and January are some of the absolute best times of the year to trade/buy Crypto.

$BTC nearly always does well (even in bear markets) and $ETH outperforms.

Altseasons are born during these times.

Quick thread: Image December and January are prime times for #Bitcoin moves. There is always a rally sometimes during those months over the last several years.

Even during bear markets, we usually see some sort of relief. Image

What is Opportunity Cost?

Why does it matter in crypto or any investment?

It's one of the many reasons why bagholding shitcoins can be very bad if you don't have a strong plan

Only longterm bags should be $BTC and $ETH for now IMO.

Let's dive in Opportunity Cost definition:

the loss of potential gain from other alternatives when one alternative is chosen.

What's this mean in crypto terms?

It means when you buy $SOL at $200 and hold it for 1.5 years and watch that liquidity be locked in for as long as you hold it.

Are you struggling with learning Crypto or $BTC Trading or NFTs?

Keep going. The work is front loaded (mostly), same with nearly all other endeavors

The hardest part is the beginning. Image What does front loaded mean?

Front loaded problems means that a lot of the hard work happens at the start.

It occurs in many other businesses. Real estate, computer programming, etc.

There is a paradox of only trading when $BTC conditions are good for your style and learning to trade in bad conditions to get to that point (of being an expert)

What does this mean? Image It means that to get good enough to become a strong trader and even understand your trading style, you have to trade in bad conditions while you are learning and likely lose a lot of $ in those conditions to level up and get to a higher level.

True altszns (the 1s where everything goes up cumulatively) might be over for a bit

That's not to say that there won't be periods where every alt goes up.

But with the pvp fragmented liquidity, there are going to be just a few that greatly outperform the rest.

$BTC dependent Image Ofc this was always the case to some degree but I think that the last true altszn we had was January/Feb 2021.

We really saw everything rip hard and it didn't matter what you had, you just woke up to 20% more each day.

0 skill needed for you to get rich.

Are you sidelined anon?

Are you mad and angry because you are seeing everyone print $ while you are uncomfortably in stables waiting for a $BTC dip?

Don't worry- you can still get exposure later. You have plenty of time. Image Don't fomo in. We might have a few days in a row but many alts are still not in a bullish market structure.

and we all know that few people actually have any bitcoin or eth exposure (sadly).

To be determined if and when altseason is coming. I do think a strong alt run comes...

Thread on #Bitcoin Dominance and how it relates to #Altcoins. $BTC dominance is super important to understand and I'll also go into alt/btc pairs and why they are selling off.

$BTC.D #Ethereum $ETH $ETHBTC This thread is partially inspired by a recent one I made in regards to why altcoins aren't moving right now despite BTC going super strong. Check this one out first.

$BTC is going up but my #Altcoins aren't moving? What gives?

Thread on where I think we're at in the market cycle and some context of 2020 for you with #Bitcoin and $ETH #Ethereum

Cliffs: If #BTC holds up, $ALTS are going to send strongly (eventually) To be clear, I don't think that the current cycle is going to be nearly as strong as 2020. That was a massive run from 10-60k, where btc accumulated for most of 2020 and collected A LOT of liquidity on the March 2020 crash.

Alts also bled for a full 2 year period in 2018-2019

If you're looking to run a small stack up to a decent one, emerging ecosystems are the best way to do it. Not only are air drops a great way to jump start your bankroll, but the new coins on the new ecosystem usually pump huge. @arbitrum is giving you that opportunity now $ARB Even if you missed out on the air drop, you can still print by finding new projects on arbitrum and buying those tokens. Many of those shitcoins should pump bc of the arb air drop; some medium % of that air drop money will stay in the ecosystem.

$BTC: Price left a 9 month range (which always is easy to spot in hindsight but impossible when you're in it) and the first 1D close above 25k since June 2022. First bullish 1D EMA trend since December 2021 and the next area up is the 30-40k region IMO.

#Bitcoin #BTC Image Higher time frames paints a more clear picture to me personally. Huge amount of volume transacted in that 15k-25k range, usually the sign of a short term bottom.

I think price goes to 30-40k, depending on how strong the macro environment is. Image

Notes on Taking Losses while Trading

$BTC #Bitcoin #Ethereum $ETH #Altcoins

Thread 🧵 To begin, I'm more talking about losses as a trader. You can DCA invest and hodl $BTC for years and probably not experience any losses- that's fine.

If you're 'investing' in Altcoins and holding them for many years, you're probably going to end up losing $ on the majority.

Why Being a Trader is Best For 99% of You

short 🧵

$BTC $ETH #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Altcoins First, let's talk about what a 'trader' is. A trader (in my opinion) is someone that sells their coins after a certain point in time when xyz criteria is met.

They don't hold it forever

They don't 'believe in the tech' and think it will be 'the next #Bitcoin'

Why you are destined to lose as a retail trader and who you are fighting against in this market.

quick 🧵

$BTC #Bitcoin $ETH #Ethereum #Altcoins Image As a starting retail trader, you are sitting at your computer staring at some charts. You have your favorite twitter influencer tweeting alongside a video of the top 100x altcoins on youtube.

You hear of riches and lots of $ and it's your time! Image

Thread on #Altcoin cycles and what to expect during this time of the year.

#Bitcoin #BTC $BTC $BTC.D $ETH #Ethereum $ETHBTC Some notes are on this chart. I'm using $ETHBTC as the macro indicator for altcoins right now; it usually is a good sign of how altcoins are doing (vs. bitcoin).

Educational Thread: How to ride a trend in this #Altcoin market. Liquidity hops from 1 narrative to the next, so be sure to understand

I'm going to use $ETH in July as an example. This is also relevant to the current $FET traders.

All dependent on $BTC being stable Step 1: Wait for #Bitcoin to be in a stable area. Very few altcoin runs can happen if $BTC is heavily volatile and downtrending. Alts are going to die (as we've seen) if this happens and it's a tough environment to trade in.

Brain dump, random thoughts here on the market. nothing in order of importance

$BTC $ETH #Crypto #Bitcoin Image 1) Every dollar you invest at the bottom could be worth $10+. I don't think it's a stretch to think that many tokens could be 10x the current prices in 5 years.

2) Treat your current liquidity as precious; don't blow it on stupid shit like you did in the bull market.

$SOL: Where is the bottom at? Nobody knows. The chart itself isn't super clear to me;I had to go all the way back to 2020 to find some support lvls. Have a few different screenshots on my levels and current outlook- I think that this current $11 area is a must hold area. #Solana ImageImageImage If $11 falls, I don't see any more support until $5-$3. It's really awful to see this price action and it's going to be very volatile in the short term. I personally would not bidding this for a while and would rather just buy higher vs. buying the dip (the dip could be v. low).
