IOTA/USDT - Complex overview for USD altcoinsIOTA / USDT (Binance) - A comprehensive look at the trend of altcoins in USDT pairs
IOTA is a token that was among the first in my portfolio in 2018. Overall, this is probably one of my first purchases ever, so I always have a bit of nostalgia in this chart. It is not fundamentally bad at all, but at the same time it has not yet delivered a revolution on the Internet in a similarly broad-spectrum Internet of Things (IoT). However, I don't want to write specifically about this pair, but it seems to me to be a good example of an average altcoin in terms of chart.
👌🏻The current altcoin market takes three forms:
1. - Charts such as HNT, STX, SOL, BNB. They recorded tough corrections, but their growth in the previous bullrun was so impulsive that even such a tough market correction failed to send them to long-term PoC structures and their long-term up-trend is maintained (including Bitcoin).
2- Charts like IOTA - Despite strong growth during the last run, they failed to get prices above their ATH and the current market situation sent them to the historically strongest Point of Control levels (in the case of IOTA - $ 0.285)
3. Newer charts like MINA, DYDX and others - haven't warmed up in the market for a long time, they have managed to make nice impulsive structures, but their chart has not yet experienced a bear market. This puts them at a disadvantage, as the structure lacks long-term PoCs as in the case of IOTA or BTC. It is these last 2 types of charts that are beginning to suggest that perhaps due to the influence of LUNA, perhaps only the macroeconomic situation, USDT pairs will have to create longer-term accumulation zones (about 1 year) before a possible next bull run.
👍🏻Still, the vast majority of long-term charts are in sharply declining bullish patterns (most in falling wedges). Although the slope and pattern may indicate the end of the correction, and following a hard pump breakout, it makes more sense to the exact opposite. Of course, strong pumps can come and we will see 100-200% growth in the market again, we will probably have to wait for a new trend to start.
- This view may be one of the most basic things on the market and that is CYCLE. Each cycle on each asset of the international financial world takes place in 3 phases. Uptrend / Downtrend and subsequent consolidation. The condition of the enormously declining altcoins is beginning to indicate the bottom. Personally, it would make sense to me to create one short-term low in the form of a wick, which would come after the SL and liquidators of the currently recruited longs. However, I would venture to say that there will be an area of LONG-TERM BOTTOM.
❕Current prices for HODL perspective are more than luxurious, we didn't even dream about it half a year ago, and therefore the period of the coming months is more than suitable for the accumulation of favorites for long-term (HODL) positions. As in every market, only the meaningful will survive, so choose projects that have a product / ecosystem or global implementation. My modest estimate (of course it could be wrong) is that in the next year there will be a chance to take 100-200% profits on the altcoins several times, but we will probably have to wait for some more significant bull run and REAL alt season, maybe up to one year.
✅ Gradually, after creating a new low, I will start to accumulate the HODL portfolio on a large scale. At the same time, we will use this drop to gain middle-term positions with targets of 50-200% and we will try to use the lower volatility on HTF for LTF trades to multiply the USDT portfolio before the re-green year, which could come about 1 year before the halving (the one for so far it is published on August 12, 2024). As a result, we will focus our strategy on next summer.
