⚙️ Trading Strategy

Trade alt multiplier effect on BTC moves

When Bitcoin drops 5%, alts typically drop 7-10%. Barry watches for BTC capitulation, then buys alts knowing they'll bounce harder.

🎯 Best Suited For

High-beta altcoins during BTC volatility

"As Bitcoin goes, so go the alts. But the alts go harder."

📜 Why This Strategy Works

Studies show 70-90% of altcoin moves correlate with Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the reserve asset of crypto.

📊 Entry Signal (Alt Beta Play)

📈 Entry Signal (Alt Beta Play)

                        BTC 24h Change ≤ -5% (BTC capitulation)                    

→ BUY XRP or SOL - expecting outsized bounce due to strong mean reversion

📉 Exit Conditions

                        • TARGET: Price ≥ entry × 1.10 (+10% gain)                    

                        • STOP_LOSS: Price ≤ entry × 0.93 (-7% loss)                    

                        • MAX_HOLD: 7 days
