Looking at the recent market data, it's quite interesting. PEPE has increased by 50%, ASTER and JOE have both risen by 40%, small-cap coins are indeed performing aggressively this wave.

I previously analyzed a pattern: the key to each market cycle is that after BTC pulls back from a high, it no longer crashes straight down but starts to consolidate sideways. Once this rhythm appears, altcoins tend to be shaken out more aggressively, and the market needs to loosen liquidity. Looking now, these conditions are basically all met.

No matter how long this bull market lasts, at least so far, we've already kept up with the rhythm.

PEPE-2,1%

ASTER-3,01%

JOE-3,86%

BTC-1,93%

PEPE 50% this wave is really amazing, but I always feel like this is the main force inducing the rally... Shanzhai rotation has indeed arrived, but it's easiest to get caught in such times. Be careful. I've heard of the sideways consolidation and shakeout theory, but honestly, each time is different. If I can keep up with the rhythm this time, it’s considered a win. BTC is most dangerous when it’s sideways, I faintly feel something is about to explode... This round of gains looks comfortable, but I’m worried it’s just a rebound. Don’t mistake a rebound for a bull market. Keeping up with the rhythm is real, but preserving profits is the real issue. Reasonable take-profit is not shameful. I wouldn’t chase a 50% increase; I’m afraid of catching the last wave. The bull market is long, and in the end, those who stay calm will still be the winners.

btc consolidation thesis finally printing... told y'all the liquidity depth would shift once we cleared that resistance. alts dumping 40-50% gains rn is textbook capital rotation, not conviction. opportunity cost is real when everything pumps at once tho
