Margin Bloodbath as BTC Implodes

COINEX:ETHUSDT   ETHEREUM / TETHER
Hi Traders, Investors and Speculators of Charts📈📉

One of the most important parts of trading is following the macro phase and planning your trades. The only way to do this, is to pre-identify the macro market cycle that's currently playing out. Why am I reminding you of this? Well, because despite the recent liquidations, we are still in a CRYPTO BULL MARKET.

Bitcoin recently dropped to around 25K from a previous 30K ish. This caused a significant drop in the value of cryptocurrencies across the board, but micro caps didn't plummet as hard. Traders lost an estimated $1 billion in liquidations in a 24-hour period. This sell-off was one of the most severe downturns for digital assets this year. And yet, according to the macro, things are looking extremely bullish for smaller cap altcoins. Most smaller cap altcoins have not plummeted as hard as BTC and the other top alts by market cap. This means that the liquidity could possibly go into micro cap coins next.

(Liquidation is when an exchange closes a leveraged trading position due to a partial or total loss of the trader's initial margin. This happens when the trader is unable to meet the margin requirements for the position, or when the price of the asset falls below a certain level. Margin trading is a type of trading where traders borrow money from an exchange to buy more assets. This allows traders to amplify their profits, but it also increases their risk of losses. The liquidations that occurred during the sell-off were caused by traders who were forced to sell their Bitcoin positions due to margin calls. A margin call is a notification from an exchange that a trader must deposit more money into their account to cover potential losses. If the trader does not deposit the required funds, the exchange will close their position, which can lead to losses.)

The Bitcoin price drop was unexpected, but so far the support zone around 25K holds well.
My strategy at the moment is the same as it was before this bloodbath; I won't touch BTC or the top 10 by market cap, especially not with leverage trades. Instead, I will continue to seek out under valued micro caps and accumulate for the next altrun.
