Altcoins Psychological analysis

440
As I’ve said many times, altseason began in 2024. After a significant correction, we entered the second bullish wave in April 2025.

As shown in the chart, the orange zone represents the break-even prices for most retail investors. FOMO will begin as we enter this zone, which will encourage whales to dump their coins, since liquidity will be returning to the market. Retail investors may then struggle to exit their positions as theire positions are not so profitable.

To take advantage of this wave, you should reassess your break-even prices and begin selling gradually throughout this ongoing trend.

After many attempts, the major resistance level has finally been broken with significant volume.
This breakout is expected to push the altcoin market cap toward the $1.2 trillion target. At that level, the majority of retail investors are likely to be at breakeven.

As previously said, the TOTAL2ES chart has now entered what I refer to as the "Retail Breakeven Zone" a crucial psychological phase where many retail investors are holding onto their positions, not because of strategy, but because they’ve endured deep corrections and are finally seeing their portfolios back in the green. They think this is the beginning of the altseason, but it’s important to remember that the the altseason started in 2024 as I explained many times before and many quality altcoins have already seen substantial gains.

As retails are adding fresh money into the market , it creates the perfect conditions for whales to begin distributing their holdings at high prices.

In short, just as I warned several weeks ago, this is the final leg of the altseason that started in 2024. For me, this phase is more about profit-takings.

As always , free insights are not taken seriously. Did you know that people are paying monthly subscription to get theses kind of insights ?
Anyway, I didn’t like the low boosts on this idea. It’s very underrated 😏
