Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe, a renowned crypto analyst and the CEO of MN Trading Consultancy, recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to share<\/a> his insights on a perennial challenge in the cryptocurrency market: how to strategically enter the altcoin market without falling prey to the pitfalls of FOMO and market hype. His guide, dubbed “The Ultimate Strategy to Step into Altcoins,” aims to arm investors with the knowledge to make informed decisions.<\/p>\n

Crypto Guide: When To Buy Altcoins<\/h2>\n

Van de Poppe opens his discussion by framing the issue as a “Million Dollar question,” emphasizing the difficulty many face when trying to navigate the highly volatile altcoin market. “How do you position yourself into an Altcoin running upwards? How do you avoid chasing FOMO and hype<\/a>?” he queries, setting the stage for a deep dive into the complexities of market timing and investment strategies.<\/p>\n

He starkly highlights a common misstep among investors, pointing out, “Between 80-90% of buyers who purchase an asset do that in the last 10% of the price movements.” This statistic underlines the herd mentality prevalent in the investment world, where many are drawn to an asset only after witnessing significant gains, often too late to realize similar returns.<\/p>\n

A crucial piece of advice from van de Poppe centers around the deceptive nature of market hype, especially as it manifests on social media platforms. “Once you start to see the hype increase on social media, it means that you’re probably still relatively late to the party,” he states, cautioning investors against making decisions based on the heightened visibility of an asset, which often signals it is nearing its peak.<\/p>\n

Van de Poppe argues for a contrarian approach to investing, suggesting that the greatest opportunities lie in moments of widespread doubt or negativity. He offers a compelling comparison, “After the collapse of FTX<\/a>, Bitcoin’s price was swimming around a value of $15,500 per Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

During this period, almost no one was interested in getting into a position.” He contrasts this with the period leading up to the ETF approval when Bitcoin was trading at significantly higher prices, to illustrate the heightened risks associated with entering the market during periods of optimism.<\/p>\n

One of the most emphatic pieces of advice from van de Poppe is to avoid the temptation of chasing rallies. “The risks are just not worth it to chase a rally. It’s always better to wait for a correction,” he advises. He elaborates on this point by recommending that investors wait for an altcoin to correct by 25-60% from its recent peak before considering an entry.<\/p>\n

“This means buyers are likely to take over and the risk\/reward is more positive,” van de Poppe explains, highlighting the strategic benefit of patience and timing in maximizing investment returns.<\/p>\n

Another option is to examine the total market capitalization of the altcoins, either with Ethereum (“TOTAL2”) or without ETH (“TOTAL3”) on TradingView.com. The two metrics can give an indication of what stage the market is currently in – a Bitcoin dominance phase or an emerging altcoin season<\/a>. At press time, TOTAL3 stood at $546 billion after surpassing the crucial resistance at the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement level.<\/p>\n

Through his extensive work with wncen.com and Bitcoinist.com, Jake has become a trusted voice in the crypto community, guiding newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike towards a deeper understanding of this dynamic field. His mission is simple yet profound: to demystify Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and make them accessible to everyone. With a professional career in the Bitcoin and crypto scene that began right after graduating with a degree in Information Systems in 2017, Jake has immersed himself in the industry. Jake joined the NewsBTC Group in late 2022. His educational background provides him with the technical prowess and analytical skills necessary to dissect complex topics and present them in an understandable format. Whether you are a casual reader curious about Bitcoin or an investor seeking to navigate the latest market trends, Jake\u2019s insights offer valuable perspectives that bridge the gap between complex technology and everyday usage. Jake is not just a reporter on technological trends; he is a firm believer in the transformative potential of Bitcoin over traditional fiat currencies. To him, the current financial system is on the brink of chaos, propelled by unchecked government actions and flawed Keynesian economic policies. Drawing from the principles of the Austrian school of economics, Jake views Bitcoin not merely as a digital asset but as a crucial step towards rectifying a failing monetary system. His libertarian views reinforce his stance that just as the church was separated from the state, so too should money be freed from governmental control. For Jake, Bitcoin represents more than just an investment; it's a peaceful revolution. He envisions a future where Bitcoin fosters a sustainable and responsible financial framework for generations to come. His advocacy is not about opposition but about evolution, about laying the groundwork for a system that prioritizes transparency and equity over secrecy and inequality. As a journalist, Jake\u2019s articles are crafted with the precision of a scholar and the passion of a true believer. He provides not only news but also thoughtful analysis that connects the dots between daily developments and larger economic theories. His work is a beacon for those lost in the technical jargon often associated with crypto discussions, illuminating the practical implications and benefits of these technologies. In summary, Jake Simmons is not just reporting on a revolution; he wants to be part of it, fully committed to enhancing public understanding and adoption of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. His work is more than just a collection of articles; it\u2019s a resource, a guide, and a companion for anyone ready to explore the potential of this digital frontier.
