Preparing for the Altcoin Wave: Opportunities and Risks in the Last 4 Months of the Cycle

This year, the crypto market is almost certain to have another strong wave for Altcoin. The issue is not whether it will happen or not, but whether you have the right "bowl" – that is, the ability to choose the right coin to ride the wave – or not. Opportunity to multiply by 5 times? Yes, but not for everyone. In this rhythm, some Altcoins may appear that could increase by 5 times or more, but only for those who choose the "star" correctly. For popular Altcoins with larger market capitalization like $TRX, $HYPE, $LINK, the potential increase is safer, only around x1 to x2. If the expectation is to triple, the likelihood is very low. Dreaming of x10 or x20 is nearly impossible during this period, as the growth cycle is less than 4 months. The most important thing: Exit plan Most investors do not lose because they choose the wrong coin, but because they do not have a selling plan. When the price rises, many people refuse to take profits, thinking it will go even higher. When the price falls, they panic and sell off, and in the end, the actual profit is only around x1. Therefore, starting from now, prepare a specific selling plan, and do not let emotions take control. Big waves often come at the end of the cycle. During the final stage of a bull run, altcoins often experience the strongest surge. In the last 2 weeks, many coins may crazily multiply several times. But remember: no one can sell at the exact peak. Be satisfied with a good enough profit, instead of trying to "catch the entire wave." Why is ETH not performing yet, while SOL is very strong? ETH is currently held quite a lot by retail investors after the previous surge. This has weakened new buying pressure. On the contrary, SOL was previously overlooked due to its weakness, and retail investors did not accumulate much. That is the reason why when it bounced back, it surged extremely strongly. This is similar to the current LTC – very few people want to buy. But when it suddenly explodes, the FOMO money will flood in. The biggest risk: The illusion of a "perpetual bull run" Don't put too much faith in the "bull market forever" story. Large institutions, from Wall Street to U.S. funds, are promoting products like spot ETFs, options ETFs... not to "make the community rich", but to generate profits and hedge risks. Crypto trades 24/7, and you can also long/short, which is very attractive for the financial sector. When expectations have been pushed to the peak, it is also the time when the risks are extremely high. Final advice Only use capital that you can afford to lose, absolutely do not go all-in or borrow money. Be prepared for daily fluctuations of 5-20%. Most importantly: do not be greedy. A bull run is when many people make money, but it is also the period when the majority lose the most. 👉 In summary, the opportunity is still there, but the window of time is very short. If you don't have a plan, then even if a bull run comes, you will be the last one to leave the party with a meager profit.
