ICYMI: Trade Travel Chill Highlights of the Week
Greetings, trailblazers! It’s Friday, and you know what that means – time for our weekly round the world trip of all things TTC.
💸 TRADE
“It’s been an incredibly choppy few days on the 15-minute time frame, making it difficult to count levels. When it’s like this, rather than forcing the count, focus on the time frame that is behaving.”
– Aleisha, CABIN CREW
Annii’s Analysis 📈
In Sunday’s YouTube update, Annii said she was cautious about Bitcoin’s bullish price action due to the absence of significant pullbacks and decreasing volume. She noted that significant price movements in the US session on Fridays often get reversed in the following week, suggesting the gains might be reclaimed this week. And … she nailed it. ✋🎤
Important Copy Trading Update 🚨
Annii announced a few weeks ago that she has had a rethink on copy-trading for a bunch of reasons that you can read about here and here. TL;DR: anyone copy trading Annii on Bitget should manually CANCEL it ASAP, or risk getting burned on average entries.
Bull Market Buying Strategy🐂
“Based on previous Bitcoin halving cycles, there’s an assumption that we should break out of this accumulation range sometime in September, so best case scenario we’ve got the next 10 weeks to buy whatever altcoins we want for the rest of this cycle and also to top up on Bitcoin you still want to it add to your portfolio as well.”
– Annii
Annii released her brand new buying strategy this week with this must-watch video where she covers her DCA plans, and which coins have made the cut for the TTC portfolio for this cycle. Make sure you have your Discord pings set up properly so you don’t miss when Annii makes purchases – channel notifications aren’t enough!
How to be part of the 1%
Are you feeling some post-halving accumulation-phase lethargy? 🥱😴 Well, SilverWolf wants you to WAKE 👏 UP!👏 It’s time to sit up, pay attention, and make some hard decisions.😁 Here are his tips on maximizing profits and mitigating risks this cycle, and how NOT to be a delusional Dave.
SilverWolf Alpha 🐺
In just a short couple of weeks, SilverWolf has shared an astounding amount of analysis on the technicals and fundamentals of the alt coins he is watching this cycle. Read his summaries in the silverwolfbtc-updates channel in Discord, and nominate and vote for which coins he will drop the alpha for next.
- Jupiter ($JUP)
- VeChain ($VET)
- Celestia ($TIA) – publicly available on the TTC blog
- Render ($RENDER)
- Alephium ($ALPH)
- Oraichain ($ORAI)
- NEAR Protocol ($NEAR)
- LayerZero ($ZRO)
- Router Protocol ($ROUTE)
- AIOZ Network ($AIOZ)

There’s a no such thing as tight stop loss. Either it’s a good stop loss or bad stop loss. Tight stop loss means price will hit it sooner.

Deep Dives 🤿
This week in the community hang-outs:
- Cajun digs into the high-volume “900 trade”, day vs swing trading, re-entries + profit taking.
- Jarrid explores bull/bear yield curve changes, inflation trends, and BTC on chain metrics.
- And Cody recaps the entries this week, talks back-testing, and explains the importance of the 50% Asia line.
All the hangouts are available in the Live Session Recordings section of the website.
When I started with TTC I thought I was smart and was always backtesting and trying to find like some sort of crazy unicorn strategy to make it better, but eventually I realized that was dumb and you can just trade the model and it’s profitable. I still do a crazy amount of backtesting, but it’s all just within the model now.

Macro-Econ 📊
As Casper noted out yesterday, we are looking at a CRAZY week ahead of real world news and macro hi-jinks which could mean volatility the markets. 😲 Buckle up, listen to your Cabin Crew’s instructions, and make a note of where your nearest exit is!
On the Road to Alt Season: are we there yet mum?
If Alts followed a similar path to last cycle, then their Alts vs their BTC pairs should bottom sometime after the first rate cut and around the second cut. Market expects the first rate cut in Sept and a second in Nov (A possible 3rd in Dec). If things played out like last cycle then Alt season might start late 2024 – early 2025.
– Jarrid J, CABIN CREW
Jarrid shared this amazing chart in Discord this week depicting how the world tends to move in 80-90 year cycles. I love when boring data can tell a genuinely compelling story! Will history repeat, or will crypto break the mold?
Humble Brags 💪
Look at this beautiful ribbon strategy trade by haxel. 🤩
I wasn’t up to monitor, so set the TP to just under the AOI I’d mapped out on the 4 hour. If I had been awake, I could have ridden it up to a nice 14:1, but I am learning to take my profits at sensible levels if I can’t monitor.

Netflix + (Trade Travel) Chill 📺
The Olympics are starting🥳 How will we ever find time for anything else? 😅 If you are not interested, or you’re boycotting now that breakdancing is an Olympic sport 🤷♀️, here are some recommended weekend watches to keep you from missing the charts too much:
- For a Forex-focused perspective on the market maker method, check out Steve Mauro’s YouTube channel, Beat The Market Maker.
- Try spending 10 minutes with one painting and no distraction (the original focus challenge was 3 hours, so 10 minutes should be easy by comparison, right?)
- Capital Club members can download Annii’s new DCA Tracker tool from the materials tab of the Bull Market Portfolio Update video.
- Never be at a loss for what to read: TTC Blogs.
- And ICYMI, catch up on last week’s Friday Flight Log.
