Do you know that moment in the market when everything suddenly changes? I’m seeing some very interesting signals right now, and I think it’s worth talking about.
We call it alt season — this period when altcoins start to gain real strength. And it’s not just a small increase — we’re talking about movements that can surpass Bitcoin’s growth in percentage. When this happens, many people holding BTC end up moving capital into these alternative coins, seeking higher returns.
What makes this phase so special? First, Bitcoin’s dominance decreases. This opens space for new projects and alternative technologies to gain visibility. Second, speculation skyrockets. Tons of promising projects emerge, fueling even more price increases. It’s a self-sustaining cycle.
But look — alt season is exciting, but also dangerous. Volatility is through the roof, and you can make a lot or lose everything quickly if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Looking at the Altseason Index chart, it’s at 37, which is a good indicator. It means we’re still at the beginning of this trend. And Bitcoin? It dropped from 88,000 and is now around 79,500. This kind of movement usually precedes a stronger alt season.
And then there’s $BONK. This coin is forming a very interesting pattern — a wave (4) inside a triangle. The charts suggest an upward movement is coming. The stop loss is set at 0.000019 if things don’t go as planned.
My advice? If you want to participate in this forming alt season, do your homework. Use good risk management. And if you want more detailed analyses with Elliott Wave, I’m here sharing these opportunities.
