Altseason can be one of the most exciting yet dangerous times to be in the crypto market. With high volatility, huge price swings, and some coins moving like crazy, it’s easy to get swept up in the hype. But if you want to make the most out of it, you need to know how to trade smartly — and that means knowing when to take profits, manage risk, and avoid common traps. Here’s your guide to surviving and thriving during altseason.
This method can possibly guarantee long term profit given a good entry point. But the method should be followed very precisely.

1. Timing Is Key – Catching the Right Moment

Altseasons usually happen after Bitcoin’s dominance starts to decline. The big players move their capital to altcoins, and prices can explode in all directions. So, the first step is to watch the market closely for signs that altcoins are starting to gain momentum. Don’t rush in when everyone else is going crazy; wait for altcoins to show solid price action, not just hype.

Open positions at support levels, meaning levels where the price has bounced off previously. Personally, to avoid major losses in case a dip happens, i can do 1 of 2 things:
1- Set a stop loss that is convenient to minimize and invalidate your expected price movement to prevent any losses.
2- Make sure your have enough margin to have a liquidation price BELOW the next support level (The lower price below your opening position where the coin bounced off previously).

2. Watch Bitcoin’s moves
Typically when Bitcoin moves up or breaks a critical resistance level, so do altcoins. This can help you in deciding when to open your positions.

3. Don’t FOMO into Pumping Coins
When you see a coin being hyped and pumped, resist the urge to jump in. These coins often have unsustainable price actions that could leave you holding a bag if the market turns. Instead, look for altcoins that are at their lows, have a strong project behind them, and show signs of potential growth. Solid coins with a real use case and strong fundamentals are your best bet.

3. Take Profits and Protect your positions
Altseason is volatile, and it’s crucial to take profits at regular intervals. Let’s say you’ve made some nice gains — don’t just watch the numbers grow; take out a percentage of your profits (I recommend 20-30%)
Next step is to divide that amount into the following:
- Move half of that 20-30% profit to yoir spot wallet and withdraw/ lock/ avoid reinvesting with it.
- Use 25% of that profit to add to the margin for that position. This strategy lets you ride the wave while protecting your initial investment. By using profits as margin, you can prevent liquidation by lowering your risk exposure.
- The final 25% can be used to open a new position in a NEW asset. (Apply same rules, and avoid greed)
Example: If you bought a coin with a total value of 100$ post leverage at 0.01$ and it’s now at a resistance price of 0.03$ and your position is now worth 300$. Take 100$ as profit (leaving 200$ in case of a bounce) and divide it into:
-50$ cashed out profit
-25$ added back to the margin (in case a drop below your opening level occurs)
-25$ can be used to open a new position, add to margin of position close to liquidation, or cashed out.
This way, even if the coin dips, you still have your initial investment covered and more funds to keep riding the altseason wave.

⚠️ In case you do end up adding your profit to your initial margin, make sure to cancel any SL order to avoid closing the position on a loss

Ps: i would advise to avoid stop loss orders on a profit if you think you might reinvest them. In other words, DONT ADD TO ANY OPEN POSITION THAT IS IN PROFIT.
4.Stay Calm, Stay Disciplined
Altseasons can be a rollercoaster, but don’t let the hype or fear drive your decisions. Stick to your trading plan, avoid emotional decisions, and don’t invest money you can’t afford to lose. Patience and discipline are the keys to navigating these high-risk, high-reward markets.
Remember: It’s not just about riding the highs — it’s about managing the dips and staying in the game long-term.
