So the key is separating real rotation from noise.#KelpDAOFacesAttack #IranRejectsSecondRoundTalks #Altcoinseason2024
What actually matters here:
Resistance level → If DOCK clearly breaks and holds above it, then your thesis gets stronger
Volume quality → Not just spikes, but sustained buying (multiple candles, not one pump)
Market context → If Bitcoin and Ethereum are stable or trending up, alt rotations are more likely to follow
Red flags to watch:
Price making higher lows but volume fading
Quick wick above resistance → then rejection (classic trap)
Overall market turning risk-off
Real talk:
Rotation does start quietly — you’re right there.
But most early “looks constructive” setups never follow through.
Smarter approach:
Instead of guessing early:
Let it break structure first
Enter on retest or confirmation
Define risk clearly (low-cap = high volatility)
