During an altcoin season, it is recommended to diversify holdings, add positions gradually, and take profit and stop loss in a timely manner.
In a possible #altcoin season, if we get rich on the spot market or experience a move like before, how should we manage the wallet when it grows 10-20 times, and what will happen? I’ll talk about that.
1- Capital Management
Burying all cash into a single coin at a single price is something none of you will do anymore; you’ve learned this over time. If you want to manage your portfolio as close to a professional as possible, opportunity cost is the most important factor, friends. Instead of allocating the entire cash to very risky, zero‑balance projects, you should distribute it among risky‑balanced altcoin projects.
When making this distribution, you must set aside cash; even if you didn’t set aside cash, you should prepare cash on the side by taking profit sales whenever you see profit. This helps you during a downturn and also gives you capital to seize extra opportunities.
Purchases must be made gradually; the opportunity will come again, don’t worry. Instead of trying to catch the bottom, when the trend starts, joining even 3-5% above the rise is fine, don’t worry.
2- Position Management
On top of what we discussed in capital management, there’s no need to stubbornly add to a losing project to lower the average cost. That’s exactly what the market expects from you.
By selling winners and adding to losers you are serving the market. Don’t do that; cutting losses at certain points can save your life. Position building should be done with strong projects, for example $HYPE is a very good recent example. When the market is positive, you have no chance to make money in a project moving negatively unless you’re lucky.
4- Exit Mechanics
When making spot investments, a deadly mistake is to set target prices that are detached from reality. Targets should be set based on FDV and network‑project usage, not on price levels. Because in bull periods, those factors determine the price. When you feel the project has reached saturation, you should start selling slowly and watch your path.
5- Rotation
One of the biggest mistakes is leaving realized profits idle. Especially profits from speculative positions should be immediately transferred to quality projects, revenue‑generating projects, with part of the capital taken out of the market. If the money the market gives you stays in the market, eventually it will be taken back from you. This rule never changes.
Including crypto, I have seen and lived through multiple bull markets, friends. Even if many of you didn’t notice, the US was in a bull market, and the Borsa Istanbul fund market was also in a bull market.
Gain experience, be aware of what you’re going through.
