Regarding the view on altcoins, the core still lies in sector rotation.
The liquidity in the market is limited, and most of it has been absorbed by mainstream coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Additionally, the on-chain activities further reduce the funds flowing back to older coins.
The simplest and most effective way to operate is to follow the trend, see where the market's attention is concentrated, and combine that with chart analysis of positions, cost-effectiveness, and potential for future development. If these conditions are met, then it can be worth trying to enter.
The current market situation is indeed quite friendly for swing trading. As for long-term holding, if one is waiting for market peaks, it may take until next year. However, even so, taking advantage of swing trading to exit at the right positions is also a good choice.
Moreover, even if one accidentally misses the subsequent rise, there will always be other coins or opportunities available in the market. There is no need to hold onto a particular project for too long; flexibility in adjustment is key. There are plenty of opportunities; the key is whether one can seize them!
