How to Really Read Altcoins
It’s not just about chasing green candles — winning altcoin trades tend to follow a few key rules:
➡️ Track BTC pairs as well as USD — if your alt can’t outperform majors, it’ll likely keep lagging
➡️ Momentum beats “cheap” — strong trends see dips instantly absorbed, not left hanging
➡️ Catalysts lead the move — narratives, tech updates, and ecosystem shifts spark price action
➡️ Altcoin cycles are real — know when BTC dominance rules and when capital rotates into alts
