My Crypto Trading Plan for This Summerš
#Bitcoin is in a clear bull market. Altcoins? Still lagging badly.
So hereās how Iām trading crypto this summer
A strategy built for todayās market, not the last cycle š§µš
1/x This cycle is playing out differently.
Bitcoin has completely decoupled from the rest of the market.
So Iāve split my entire strategy into two separate plans:
1ļøā£One for $BTC.
2ļøā£One for altcoins.
You canāt treat everything the same anymore.
2/x For #Bitcoin, my playbook is simple and technical.
I use two indicators on TradingView:
š¹The 20-week Simple Moving Average (SMA) = entry trigger.
š¹The 50-week SMA = bull market confirmation,
Right now, my next ideal buy zone is around $94Kā$95K.
As long as $BTC holds above ~$83K (the 50W SMA), itās still in a clean uptrend.
3/x When it comes to large cap altcoins, Iām keeping it tight and high conviction.
These are coins I believe will 100% come back once dominance flips.
My current basket:
š¹ $ETH ā The #1 institutional coin.
š¹ $SOL ā The #1 retail and technology coin.
š¹ $XRP ā The TradFi dark horse coin.
š¹ $TAO ā The #1 AI coin.
š¹ $SUPER ā The #1 Gaming coin.
š¹ $PEPE ā The #1 meme coin of this cycle only behind doge.
4/x I only size heavily into large caps that sit in the top 20ā30 rankings.
If itās not top-tier in its sector, itās a trade, not a core hold.
š¹ 5%+ allocation for majors.
š¹ <3% for anything outside the top 30.
š¹Max 10 coins total in my long-term bag.
Keep it tight. Be ready to rotate fast.
5/x So, when am I buying small-cap altcoins again?
Short answer:Ā Not yet.
Weāre not in āeasy modeā altcoin season. Most low caps are still bleeding vs $BTC.
Buying too early means watching your portfolio bleed slowly for months.
6/x A quick look at #Bitcoin dominance tells the full story.
Weāve had 3 mini alt pumps in the past year, each one failed:
š¹Q1 2024: $BTC ran, alts popped, then dumped.
š¹Nov 2024: Trump news + $XRP/AI/Narratives, then retrace.
š¹AprilāMay 2025: $TAO, memes like #Fartcoin popped, then fizzled.
Every time, $BTC dominance resumed its climb and drained the altcoin rally.
7/x So if you're saying now is the time to ape alts, youāre making a bold call:
1ļøā£That $BTC dominance has peakedĀ this exact week
2ļøā£That itās about to break into a macro downtrendĀ now
Unless we see clearĀ lower highs and lower lowsĀ on the weekly BTC.D chart, Iām not buying it.
8/x But IĀ amĀ still trading altcoins, just differently.
Iām usingĀ 10% maxĀ of my portfolio to farm short-term trends:
š¹1ā2 week holding time
š¹No emotional attachments
š¹Exit quickly before the trend dies
Itās all about staying sharp without risking too much.
9/x For those saying āIām not rich enough to hold #Bitcoinā
Ask yourself honestly:
1ļøā£Are you spending 12 hours a day glued to new launches?
2ļøā£Are you beating the DEX bots, the insiders, the full-time onchain grinders?
Because unless you are, $BTC is your safest play.
10/x So when will I go heavy into altcoins?
Hereās my checklist:
ā
$BTC dominance shows a confirmed trend reversal.
ā
Global liquidity turns back up.
ā
Fed pauses QT / QE stealth starts.
ā
ETHBTC, SOLBTC, XRPBTC all break out.
ā
Alt narratives align with macro catalysts.
OnlyĀ thenĀ do I rotate heavily into low caps.
11/x Until that time, Iām holding a focused large-cap basket and trading small caps with discipline.
If youāve been holding $ETH, $SOL, $TAO, etc this year, youāve likely outperformed $BTC.
If not, itās time to pivot and preserve capital.
Stay active but donāt chase.
12/x Timing is everything. I believe Q4 is the moment to watch.
By then, weāll likely see the Fed shift gears and macro tailwinds return.
If $ETH, $SOL, and $XRP lead the way, altseason will follow.
Until then? Stack strength. Trade with care. Donāt burn out before the real move.
13/x The altseason opportunity is coming but only for those whoĀ preserve their capitalĀ and stay in the game.
Are you ready?
