  • How I Grew My Crypto by 450% While Bitcoin Pumped 90%

    How I Grew My Crypto by 450% While Bitcoin Pumped 90%

    • If you want to skip the complex tech of cryptocurrency
    • If you have no idea when to position for altcoin season
    • And you want to invest in crypto without watch the charts

    Then this guide is for you.

    How to Position for Altcoin Season instead of Day Trading Crypto.

    I’ll share the exact pattern I used with a live copy trading account to grow a small crypto portfolio by over 450% in the past 149 days.

    No leverage. No day trading.

    My Money Works For Me

    Today I’ll share one of the four legs of our financial chair that will help ensure that you reach your financial goals sooner.

    The approach I’ll share today actually has the power to…
    entirely transform your crypto investing experience.

    You can go from

    • stressed
    • uncertain
    • addicted to the charts…

    …to

    calmly managing all your positions in just 20 minutes per day.


    How I Made $352 For Free

    This profit story actually began in September 2023 when I discovered that my referral earnings had accumulated over three hundred fifty dollars.

    After searching through the charts at the time, I selected BAKE and I put the free money into the token and left it sit for more than two months before the big price breakout. (watch the video)

    Throughout January, the BAKE holding profits were taken and the equity was dedicated to a Copy Trading account.

    The Copy Trading account has been connected to our PRO ALERTS trade tracking spreadsheet.

    Recently the original investment profits were reallocated into a range of 40 different coins and tokens at minimum trade size.

    Copy Trading Account – Open Percentage Profits and Risk Profile

    How it began:

    $323 Value on September 30 2023

    Starting with free referral earnings to show that anyone can do this.


    $1866 Value on February 26 2024

    Starting $323, open profits stand at $1866 for an actual 477% increase.

    WHY This Strategy Is Amazing

    Bitcoin gained an astonishing 90% during this time, yet our portfolio did better.

    Here’s why:

    This 20-minute-per-day crypto strategy combines three components to time the market entries and exits:

    1. AltSeason CoPilot market trends
    2. Small diversified positions
    3. Timing each market with the 1-2-3 pattern

    Over the past 149 days this strategy has provided us with yet another fantastic case study to share and study here today.

    Trade the pattern, not the market.

    Are You Trading or Positioning?

    Before –  

    Trading cryptocurrency can be a daunting task.

    First you have to learn…. how to find the trades that you’ve supposed to take.

    And if you’re trading hasn’t been successful in the past couple years…

    Most traders work harder… spending countless hours researching.

    Only to face high volatility, changes in regulations, and unexpected price swings.

    Even with the most diligent efforts, many traders end up with minimal returns or even losses.

    You feel like you have been wasting time and money on small time frame trading patterns that don’t pay off – its discouraging and frustrating.

    After –

    Spend only minutes each day to position a portfolio with dozens of coins and tokens.

    That was all I did for this account to grow.

    With the right strategy, you need only spend a few minutes each day to position your equity at the times and places where substantial growth is possible.


    No More Chart Watching?!

    ➞ What would happen if you could take your mind off the charts?

    ➞ What if your money worked for you while you were doing something else?

    ➞ What if you no longer put hours per day into news and research?

    ➞ What are the things you love – that you have been putting off until after your trading is successful?

    Pro Tip: 

    I’m so excited to illustrate the patterns that I use to position my own crypto.

    Here are three keys:

    ☲ ➀ ☲

    Time my investments around the AltSeason CoPilot

    ☲ ➁ ☲

    Focus on the pattern and not the market

    ☲ ➂ ☲

    Diversify the portfolio a little each day

    I didn’t know in advance which coins might achieve these returns.

    I diversified into many coin and tokens and for this post I’m highlighting two of the best performers.

    I share these strategies so you gain belief in your ability to make money work for you.

    Lets start with two charts that our copy trading profile is now showing greater than 100% profits.

    I’ll show you the exact pattern that was my signal to get in.

    You will immediately begin to spot this pattern in other crypto markets.


    Case Study One

    COTI Chart: 

    The ALERT for this trade was published on January 23.

    The spreadsheet monitored prices and the Signal was fired on February 5.

    Where is it now?

    Currently the trade stands over 200% open profits:

    The stop loss is way behind price to give this market lots of room consolidate. This is in Stage 3 of The Trade.

    We have managed risk and we have been proven correct on this entry.

    Nothing for us to do here – even if prices retrace…

    Results/benefits: 

    This trade has proven correct and we are in profit.

    In addition to watching a range of exit strategies to select from as time continues and the price pattern fills out, we are also watching for opportunities to add on to the successful trades that have proven correct.


    Case Study Two

    ARKM Chart: 

    The ALERT for this trade was published on early morning February 10

    and the Signal was fired soon after on the same morning, Feb 10:

    currently the open trade stands at

    and the stop loss is way behind in order to let the market have room to be wild.

    Benefits of This Approach: 

    These are fantastic example trades that have proven correct and we are in profit.

    We are in Stage 3 of the trade. Stop is above the entry and risk is managed.

    Now we review potential for adding on to the trade on the correct style of pull back – and also be ready for different exit strategies.

    We’ll select which Stage of the Trade matches the current market conditions…

    Prepare to add on with Stage 4

    Prepare to exit to Stage 5


    How it Works

    Step 1: Keep an eye on AltSeason CoPilot data which historically identifies trends of significant price movements.

    Step 2: Focus on cryptocurrencies that match our trading pattern, to spread opportunity to capitalize on various market sectors.

    Step 3: Manage risk for each trade in the portfolio by investing in small initial positions.

    Step 4: Rebalance your portfolio in 20 minutes per day as each coin achieves signal for the next stage of the trade.

    Step 5: Stop watching the charts.

    Build Healthier Trading Habits

    • Can you see the benefit of positioning instead of trading?
    • Would you rather save time and stress, instead of day trading the volatile crypto market on leverage?
    • Imagine if your portfolio grew by 450% in just minutes per day. How much more freedom would you have?
    • If you could change the way you trade so that you don’t have to watch the charts, how do you see that your life would be different than it is now?

    We want our crypto to grow while we’re doing something else.

    In other words if your system is set up correctly it will not take time from you through the day.   You will not have to watch the charts.

    The Value of a Proven Approach

    Myself and my team put in years research, countless hours of the stress, of trial and error, and hundreds of thousands of dollars invested to develop and refine this strategy.

    Yet all that means nothing for you – if you keep doing things the old way.

    The Cost of Old Habits

    What if you don’t do anything about this and you keep addicted to the charts and jumping in and out of trades too often?

    Well, I want to save you all of that… and give you free access to my course and all my data – for 7 days.

    The value this strategy can be fully unlocked simply with your commitment to learn.

    The value this strategy can be fully unlocked simply with your commitment to practice these principles.

    This can transform your your daily route, and just maybe your financial future as well.

  • Taking 180% Profit Was A Mistake

    Taking 180% Profit Was A Mistake


    Howdy fellas, I want to do a different style of video where I’m talking about some of the trades that have just happened in our system.

    I just closed a trade for 184% profit,
    and taking profits at that time was a mistake.

    In this video, I want to talk about that specific trade that we got the trading signal entry for AGIX back in February 3rd, and yesterday when the prices made a top formation,

    I took profit
    but I took profits too soon.

    So in this video, I’m going to talk about how my trade was actually against my trading system.

    First of all, I want to talk about the signal that got me into this trade because it’s really important for what I’ll explain at the end of this video.

    Then I’m going to talk about why I did the exit at this time and why that was a mistake, why I knew it was a mistake and I did it anyway.

    Then I’ll talk about what I should have done with the trade but according to our trading system.

    I think it was back in early February,

    ⟁ the agix versus Bitcoin price made a 123 formation that was a consolidation and it gave us a trading signal, and

    ➜ our system bought in with a copy trading account over on bitget.

    Now the trading system doesn’t give me an exit signal yet,

    but yesterday I closed that trade and I took profit at about 180%.

    Why I Took Profits Too Soon!

    And I took that profit for two reasons that are not related to my trading plan.

    First was my ego; I wanted to prove that I’m correct and take this profit so that I have the profit.

    I didn’t want to lose the profit, and that’s my second biggest trading mistake and I’ll explain more about that.

    I wanted impressive stats in my copy trading account over following my trading plan.

    The second reason I took that trading was so that I have that in my copy trading account so that the statistics are there of the 180% profit.

    Can’t go wrong when you start stacking those 180% profits in your statistics.

    That’s great stuff for the copy trading account, but it was actually against my trading plan rules.

    Start a Trading Journal

    So if you’ve ever written a trading plan for yourself and then you did something that was opposite to your trading plan,

    it’s really important to journal every step of that trade.

    A written trading journal takes you away from the charts to think.

    Get To Know Your Errors

    So that the next time you come around to that, you can make the decision whether or not you’re going to do that same error at that same time.


    Two Types of Errors

    This is really important because there are two types of errors that you make while you are a cryptocurrency Trader.

    First is the type of error that you get punished for; you lose money.

    So pretty soon you stop doing those kinds of errors or you have to quit trading.

    The second type of error, though, is those errors that you can make just like I had made right now that you will never know that you made an error until somebody points it out to you.

    Altcoin Season Secrets – The Wave and Pullback Strategy!

    And so I want to talk about stage four of the trade, and then I’m going to tell you where you can go and learn about this for free for the next seven days.

    Stage four of the trade is where the price moves up, and then it comes back and consolidates, and you add on so that you are bigger on your winning trades on these few trades that really do the big move and pull back.

    ➤ You want to add on to those, I’m thinking, because it seems to me that we’re at the very beginning of a very large three to five-wave stage.

    Elliot Waves

    So Elliot wave theorists are going to be super excited about what might be coming in altcoin season right now.

    And that’s because we’re coming out of an especially long Wyckoff Accumulation Pattern in the charts with the altcoins.

    And so I believe everything is building up for a wave and then a pullback and then wave again.

    Two Mistakes

    And so it was a mistake for me to take profit on my agix trade for two different reasons.

    ➥ First of all, I’m being fearful when I should be greedy, and

    ➥ Second of all, I’m doing an extra taxable event if I want to get back into that trade and make the profits as it continues the rest of the trade up.

    So it would have been better for me to sit still,

    but I took that profit so that

    • I have the money and
    • so that my statistics are in my copy trading account.

    What Is Next?

    And now I’ve taken that full wad of money, I took 17, we’ll say 17, and I turned it into 52.

    I took that full 52; I put it into another chart that’s making the very same pattern that AGIX was making a month ago.

    And now I don’t know, of course, if this new chart is going to do the same thing that AGIX just did but cross my fingers.

    Let’s see how this turns out.


    And so while I’m talking about the price chart pattern for one specific coin, it’s important to that all of the altcoins move together.

    And it’s better for us to, it’s less risk if we go across more coins in smaller trades and we stay into a spot position so that there’s no cost for holding the trade for a long time.

    Hidden Cost of Leveraged Trading

    Even if you’re doing low leverage, leverage trading Futures Trading, there’s always those ongoing costs as you hold the trade.

    Where as if you get into a spot position, you can relax more because that’s how many coins you have, and it’s easier to weather through some of the difficulties.

    And you’re also there for some of those coins that do the big moves that you would could never have known that they were going to go through.

    Exposing Trading Industry Secrets – Are You Being Manipulated?

    One of the most important perspectives is to know that the exchanges and most of the YouTube influencers, they make their money by your trading activity.

    For example, I was approached by one exchange to sponsor my videos, and then I contact another Exchange that had already sponsored me, and I said how much would you sponsor me?

    And they said it’s based on how much trading activity you generate.

    So the more I get everybody to churn their account, the more the exchanges pay me as a sponsor.

    Day trading crypto and leveraged crypto trading are encouraged only by exchanges.

    So then it encourages me to tell you that you should be day trading and that you should be trading and taking profits and then trading again and taking profits.

    Whereas I’m not sponsored by an exchange, I’m not motivated by how often you trade.

    I’m motivated by the fact that you sit on those trades for a long time and you make some phenomenal profits off of these things that change your life.

    This is the kind of story I want to hear, not how often you trade.

    Trade Smart – Step Away from the 15-Minute Charts!

    I say step away from those 15-minute charts; you should be looking at the charts 20, 30 minutes a day.

    And if you’re doing more than that, then you are micromanaging your money.

    And you should trade in such a way that you can relax and let your money watch the charts instead of you.

    Thanks again for being here; I appreciate your audience.

    Trade safe and keep those losses small.

  • How To Trade Crypto With Smallest Risk and Biggest Gain

    How To Trade Crypto With Smallest Risk and Biggest Gain

    In our video call this morning, November 13 2023, we Altcoin Season CoPilots reviewed the data for the onset of altcoin season and its implications on the price of tokens in the cryptocurrency market.

    The video from the call did not record but we did get the audio so we can share some of our strategies for investment in Bitcoin and altcoins, addressing the dynamic nature of the crypto market and how one can maximize their assets.

    Altcoin Season and Market Dynamics

    It is November 13th, and the emerging altcoin season suggests that Bitcoin dominance is showing a top formation and might soon decrease.

    Three Life-Changing Crypto Bull Markets

    This is seen as a sign of capital flowing into altcoins at a faster rate than into Bitcoin. This matches my understanding of the broader economic context, because of the ongoing bull market in stocks and precious metals, alongside increasing U.S. debt and global inflation.

    Investment Strategy in Cryptocurrency

    A key focus of the discussion is our trend following strategy for investing in cryptocurrencies.

    Our system has three phases:

    1. Holding cash unless Bitcoin’s value is increasing.
    2. Investing in Bitcoin unless its dominance is dropping.
    3. Shifting to altcoins when Bitcoin dominance decreases.

    Already Into Position Before Dominance Tops

    Here is a screenshot from our Oct 23 notification.

    Here is the same Altcoin Season Momentum chart for November 13:

    The current market conditions are passing our entry signals for small diversified investments in altcoins.

    However, the general strategy emphasizes staying mostly in Bitcoin and only shifting into altcoins as the alt/btc spread changes as noted above.

    Trading Perspective and Diversification

    Addressing a hypothetical scenario, the our system advise an individual with $1,000 in USDT (Tether) on how to approach the current market.

    The recommendation is to look through all the charts to find entry patterns that match our trading plan, diversify directly into different cryptocurrencies rather than converting to Bitcoin first. This approach aims to maximize the number of Bitcoins held rather than focusing on dollar value.

    Our system emphasizes the goal of growing Bitcoin holdings, the number of satoshi we own rather than the number of dollars we own, on the premise that Bitcoin’s value will significantly outpace that of the dollar.

    Altcoin vs. Bitcoin Performance

    The AltSeason CoPilot spreadsheet addresses the importance of choosing altcoins that are likely to increase in value against Bitcoin, rather than just against the US dollar.

    As a recent example, while the US dollar value of Litecoin might have shown some profit recently…

    …its performance against Bitcoin shows that holding Bitcoin would have been more profitable – and Litecoin now flags itself as a chart formation to watch for our signal to set up in the near future!

    Conclusion

    I want to finish this brief update with an emphasis on measuring success in terms of Satoshi, the smallest unit of Bitcoin, rather than in US dollars.

    Focusing on strategies that grow Bitcoin holdings, stay focused the long-term potential of Bitcoin compared to traditional debt-backed fiat currencies.

  • How I Turned $100 into a $10,000 Payday

    How I Turned $100 into a $10,000 Payday

    Midjourney Image by Author

    My first experiences with trading were terrible. I lost all my money. Twice.

    Both of my first two starting campaigns in trading were miserable failures. But you won’t believe how I turned my worst failures into my biggest win Ever!

    Think You Can’t Recover from a Trading Disaster? Think Again!

    The Trading Secret No One Talks About

    Many others would have taken this discouragement and just given up, especially after studying so hard for several months before each starting failing plunge. But I kept applying and practicing the strategies that you will learn about in this video series.

    I never stopped reading the charts and watching the markets build those patterns and I started to recognize them and in time I was able to enjoy my first ten thousand dollar day in profits.

    If I had quit if I had stopped practicing when I had no money, if I had not been willing to start again with less than a hundred dollars in funds. I never would have seen my money grow than more than 50 times in just a few years of cryptocurrency trading.


    The following was summarized from the YouTube transcript, assisted by ChatGPT, Writsonic and other Artificial Intelligence Tools. 

    The Journey of a Resilient Trader

    ⫸Trading can be a challenging industry. You may spend hours reading charts, analyzing trends, and carrying out in-depth market research only to lose it all in a matter of seconds. So, how do you bounce back from several failures in trading and become successful?

    This blog post showcases the inspiring journey of a resilient trader who refused to give up. Despite losing all his money twice, he kept applying and practicing strategies that brought him to his first ten thousand dollar payday. This blog post is for all cryptocurrency traders, stock traders, investors, money managers, and commodities traders looking to stay motivated and learning from others’ experiences.

    My journey into the world of trading was anything but smooth. I faced setbacks that would have made most people quit. But I persevered, and today, I want to share my story with you. It’s a tale of resilience, continuous learning, and ultimately, success. I hope it serves as both inspiration and a lesson on the importance of never giving up.

    The trader whose story we’ll share today didn’t have an overnight success story. In his early years of trading, he lost all his money not once but twice, but he never gave up. Instead, he analyzed his losses, looked for recovery opportunities and started practicing new strategies.

    My first experiences in trading were disastrous. I lost all my money in my first two trading campaigns. Imagine the emotional toll that takes on you, especially after spending months preparing and studying.

    The discouragement was overwhelming. I had invested not just money, but also time and emotional energy. The failures made me question my abilities and whether trading was the right path for me.

    The trader focused on learning trading patterns and market trends, understanding technical analysis, and staying up to date with current events. He started to recognize when a stock was about to soar or tank and noticed small but significant fluctuations in the crypto markets. In just a few years of trading, his persistence started paying off. He secured his first ten thousand dollars in a single trading day, something that would not have been possible if he’d given up earlier.

    Another crucial element of the trader’s journey was his fear of missing out (FOMO) and his emotions. In his earlier trading days, he was always second-guessing his decisions, leading to impulsive moves.

    Despite the setbacks, I decided not to give up. I continued to apply and practice the strategies I had learned. I spent countless hours reading charts and watching market patterns, determined to improve.

    Here’s How I Made It All Back and More!

    However, after losing all his money twice, he learned to manage his emotions and focus on technical analysis. He started setting targets for himself, sticking to them, and avoiding impulsive trading decisions. By managing his psychology, he became a better trader.

    I was willing to start again, this time with less than $100. It was a humbling experience, but it laid the groundwork for what would become a remarkable turnaround. My modest investment grew more than 50 times in just a few years of cryptocurrency trading.

    Additionally, the trader always reiterated the importance of education. He never stopped reading charts, analyzing data, and learning new strategies. He kept up with the changing market and treated each day as a chance to learn something new and improve his skills.

    As I continued to engage with the markets, I started recognizing patterns that I had previously missed. This skill became invaluable, turning my trading endeavors from a game of chance to a calculated strategy.

    I also learned the importance of adaptability. I tweaked my strategies based on my experiences, which allowed me to navigate the volatile world of cryptocurrency trading more effectively.

    By practicing and journaling his trades, slowly he started to show positive results that eventually led to his ten thousand dollar payday.

    How I Overcame Massive Losses

    After years of ups and downs,
    I finally had my first $10,000 day.
    It was an exhilarating moment, validating all the hard work, resilience, and adaptability I had put into my trading journey.

    It’s also worth mentioning that the trader diversified his portfolio. He invested in different markets and industries, and this helped protect him from losses. He didn’t put all his eggs in one basket and didn’t rely on a single strategy. He spread his investments and focused on minimizing risks.

    My journey serves as a testament to what can be achieved with the right mindset and a willingness to learn. Trading is not easy, and success doesn’t come overnight. But if you’re resilient, willing to learn from your setbacks, and continue to practice even when the going gets tough, you too can reach significant milestones in your trading career.

  • A Solution For Crypto Trading Addiction

    A Solution For Crypto Trading Addiction

    The elements of crypto trading addiction and gambling are a consistent risk that we must always be on guard against.

    Are you Addicted To Crypto?

    If you’re feeling muscle tension, if you’re feeling a slight background anxiety, if you’re checking the price of Bitcoin and altcoins several times through the day (and night), if you’re thinking about trading while you’re engaged in other activities, then you could be edging into the dangerous area of trading outside of your trading plan.

    I must say that I’m as guilty of “the risk to trade compulsively” in these markets as anyone. It’s something I have to constantly guard against.

    The emotions you feel while you are trading are much more important than many people acknowledge. The negative emotions created by the addiction-style compulsive need-to-watch-the-markets can begin to affect all relationships in all areas of your life – and even your health.

    Self-Talk of a Typical Trading Addict:

    • I can’t miss this opportunity, the market is going to explode any minute now.
    • I need to keep checking the price to make sure I don’t miss out.
    • If I don’t make a move now, I’ll regret it later.
    • I have to keep taking risks and making trades to stay ahead of the game.
    • I can handle the stress, I just need to keep pushing myself.
    • Maybe if I just make one more trade, I’ll hit it big and all my problems will be solved.
    • I can’t stop now, I have to keep going no matter what.

    Addicted Trader Holding A Loser:

    An addicted trader holding a losing trade might say to themselves:

    • “I can’t sell now, the price will bounce back any moment”
    • “I’ll just hold on a little longer, it will definitely go up eventually”
    • “I need to average down my position, then I’ll make a profit”
    • “I can’t let this trade be a loss, I need to keep holding and hope for the best”
    • “I’ve already invested so much, I can’t afford to sell now and take a loss”
    • “If I sell now, I’ll miss out on potential profits when the price rebounds”

    An Experienced Trader Self-Talk

    A long experienced trader may say to themselves while holding a losing trade:

    “It’s okay, losses are a part of trading. I have a solid trading plan and I know that over time my strategy will lead to overall profitability. I’ll use this experience to learn and adjust my approach in the future.”

    The difference between the two self-talk examples is that the experienced trader is more self-compassionate and focused on the long-term plan, rather than being overly self-critical and focused on the immediate loss. They understand that losses are a natural part of the trading process and use it as an opportunity for growth and learning. This type of self-talk helps the trader to maintain emotional balance and a level head while navigating the ups and downs of the market.

    The experienced trader is more self-compassionate and focused on the long-term plan, rather than being overly self-critical and focused on the immediate loss.

    Trading for Financial Freedom

    Take a moment to reflect on what’s the main reason that you got into trading Cryptos in the first place? For many, it’s for Financial Freedom which is time freedom, security, comfort and all those things. I want to have my crypto money work for me, I don’t want to spend my time working for my cryptos.

    So if I’m trading in such a way that it takes away from these reasons, then I am feeling stress. And so what’s the solution? The solution always is to change your thinking. To review your long term goals in all aspects of your life and then find a way to participate in the cryptocurrency trading that is going to open up more space for joy in your life – rather than causing muscle tension, background anxiety, constantly looking and thinking about the market.

    Finding a Low Stress Approach to Crypto Trading

    Instead of feeling stress when you can’t be there to make decisions on the market, instead of the feeling that the market may get away without you. Focus on a low time commitment way to trade crypto that opens up more time, more space for joy and success in your life.

    If your trading doesn’t feel good, you have to review it.

    It may require smaller trading positions, eliminate margin trading and eliminate leverage trading. And then refocus. Past performance is not indicator of future potential. Diversify your time in the many aspects of crypto trading and investing rather than just watching the charts to see when the prices are going to take off into the next pump.

    It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of the market, but if your trading doesn’t feel good, it’s important to take a step back and review your strategy. This is where emotional intelligence comes in. Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize and manage your emotions.

    When you begin to feel relief you are on the right track, when you begin to feel good you’re on the right track, when you’re spending less time managing your crypto trades (your crypto trades are working for you rather than you working for them) when you find yourself joyfully participating in other activities and you never even thought about your positions – you’re on the right track.

    Overcoming Crypto Trading Addiction:

    One of the first steps in overcoming crypto trading addiction is to develop emotional awareness.

    You need to recognize the emotions that are driving your trading decisions. Seek the guidance of a financial health professionals. Read the book “Money Is My Friend,” and start to unravel your emotional beliefs about money that were scripted while you were a child. By understanding your triggers, you can develop strategies to manage them.

    Once you’ve developed self-awareness, the next step is to develop self-regulation.

    This means managing your emotions and avoiding impulsive decisions. Self-regulation is managing your stress levels or your energy levels by choosing to tell a different story in your mind. Start to incorporate stress-reducing activities into your daily routine, such as exercise, meditation, journaling, or spending time with friends and family.

    1. For chronic or extreme stress, this author recommends attending a guided hot yoga class which combines physical movement with breath work and meditation.
    2. The emotional rehearsal meditations by Dr. Joe Dispenza are also highly recommended.

    These meditations involve visualizing a specific event or outcome that you desire, and experiencing the emotions associated with that event as if they have already occurred.

    The idea is to create new neural pathways in the brain that are associated with positive emotions and outcomes, which can then help to reinforce positive behavior and reduce negative emotional states such as anxiety and stress.

    Dr. Joe’s meditation retreats have been shown to be effective in reducing stress and improving both physical and mental health, including stress management and emotional regulation.

    Balancing Crypto Trading with Other Aspects of Life

    There is a time to work hard and put the hours into studying everything you can about Cryptos… to make your spreadsheets and to make your trading plans… but then there’s a time to stop thinking and to enjoy other aspects of life.

    If you feel the signs of Crypto Trading Addiction, if you have been spending way too much time watching the markets, if it is causing stress in other areas of life… it’s time for some changes so trading take less time to manage – and you focus on more joyful activities.

  • Unveiling the Secret to Our Success in the Crypto Market

    Unveiling the Secret to Our Success in the Crypto Market

    I am thrilled with the incredible results produced by our AltSeason CoPilot trading system! While there may be room for further optimization in the future, it’s incredibly satisfying to witness how this powerful system kept us firmly in the BITCOIN market during its meteoric rise!

     

    Thanks to our system’s long tested methodologies (that you can learn for free), we were able to avoid unnecessary risks by staying out of alts entirely after March 21st!

    It told us to prepare for altcoin season but kept us out of alts!

     

    Many coins flashed ALERT status, but few HOLD signals flashed

    Even more important, I’m excited to announce that The AltSeason CoPilot spreadsheet has now identified an incredibly promising group of coins for us to focus on. The AltSeason CoPilot spreadsheet lets us filter and sort data from prior waves when the alts were out performing bitcoin. This lets us get some insight so we can create a shortlist of coins to focus on.

    April Showers Bring May Flowers

    We can filter our data to find all the coins that spent at least one day in ALERT status from January 1 until March 21, and compare those against the group of coins that spent at least one day in ALERT status from March 21 until April 12.

    As Bitcoin Dominance makes a top formation the AltSeason CoPilot will be busy!

    Premium Members get more! Our preparation is complete, and we’re eagerly anticipating the opportunity to put our trading system’s daily action matrix to the test as these coins cycle back into ALERT status. With our innovative approach and expert insights, we’re confident that we’ll continue to achieve remarkable results in the weeks and months to come.

    Implementing Effective Trading Strategies

    To achieve success in trading the ALT/BTC spread, traders must implement effective trading strategies that consider a variety of factors, including market volatility, technical analysis, and risk management. By focusing on these critical elements, traders can make informed decisions and minimize the risks associated with trading cryptocurrency.

    The Altseason Co-Pilot for Cryptocurrency Portfolio Management

    Since 2016 our focus has remained on trading the ALT/BTC spread. We want to trade altcoins only when they will grow the number of Bitcoin we have – because we believe Bitcoin will go very much higher in value, while the US dollar… will not.

    To achieve success with this approach,
    traders must manage risk until the trade is in Stage 3,
    and then surrender the results to the market.

    By doing so, our traders systematically keep their losses small,
    and leave their winning trades to maximize their returns.

  • Preparing For Altcoin Season: Strategies to Succeed

    Preparing For Altcoin Season: Strategies to Succeed

    Learn about the top performers and emerging trends for the next altcoin season in 2023.

    In our March Altcoin Season Index update, our pie chart shows that our portfolio is almost entirely out of altcoins, and most importantly, our main system also crossed the threshold that tells us to move to FIAT currency and get ready for the next set of 1-2-3 bottom formations.

    Full EXIT For Many ALT/BTC Pairs

    The CryptoSmartWatch spreadsheet shows the ALT/BTC pairs have almost completely exited positions over the recent pullback.
    We’ve had seven opportunities like this since January 2021. The next altseason will be easy to see coming.

    AltSeason 2023

    Each time we complete an altcoinseason we can use our data to filter out the group of coins that made the best moves and compare that list against prior ALT/BTC price waves… …to come up with a HOT list of best potentials for the next altseason!

    In other words, we can now look back and sort out the coins that remained in HOLD status the longest from January 2023 until March of 2023, and compare that to the group of best altcoins from prior Altseason waves… and we can be PREPARED to focus on a higher probability group of crypto projects to invest in.

    The #altseasonindicator gives us the entries and exits…
    the spreadsheet makes the process into a simple daily routine that anyone can do.

    Crypto SmartWatch Control Panel

    The smartwatch opportunities gauge, and the smartwatch entry index gauge are two of our little known tools that give us greater confidence in deploying our portfolio.

    The blue line topping, and the red line bottoming – has proven to mark out when we should be prepared to run our sorting process on the hottest cryptocurrencies from our lists, because this is when the best altcoin seasons have started.

    In the graph below we can see how the smartwatch opportunities index (blue line), and the smartwatch entry index (red line) change over time.

    Four of the seven times since Jan 2021 were MASSIVE.

    No way to know the future, but we do have a low risk way to be ready for it.

    Preparing for Altcoin Season 2023

    As the cryptocurrency market gets smashed with bad news and fud, investors are reconsidering their altcoins. With Bitcoin’s dominance decreasing and altcoins crashing, investors should actually be looking for ways to capitalize on this trend. But with so many altcoins to choose from, it can be difficult to know where to start within all this FUD.

    Altcoin Season is a period when altcoins, which are alternative cryptocurrencies to Bitcoin, experience an increase in their US Dollar value faster than Bitcoin is increasing in US Dollar value.

    A little know fact

    A little known fact is that we can also have an altcoin season when bitcoin prices are dropping, but altcoin prices are not dropping as fast as bitcoin. By trading the ALT/BTC pairs, we can pull out value and profits in the price changes… even in a bear market.

    This phenomenon happens periodically, as it did in May and June in 2022. It can present a window of opportunity for our investors and traders to maximize their returns on growing the number of satoshi they hold, regardless of the price movement of bitcoin.

    However, it’s essential to have a strategy in place to succeed during the three phases of Altcoin Season. There certainly is a time when we should be holding fiat, and not crypto. And that should be built into your plan before you start.

    What causes Altcoin Season?

    Altcoin Season is often driven by various factors, including market sentiment, investor demand, and technological advancements. Altcoins with strong fundamentals, innovative use cases, and promising partnerships tend to perform well during Altcoin Season. Additionally, Altcoin Season can be influenced by macroeconomic factors, such as changes in government policies, economic growth, and geopolitical events.

    HOWEVER – you DO NOT NEED TO have a sound understanding of the market dynamics and the factors driving the Altcoin Season to take advantage of the opportunities it presents! Instead, a simple approach can work with just minutes per day to manage.
