September has historically been a bearish month for crypto markets, often signaling a difficult Q3. With this week’s erratic price action, experts expect additional volatility.
In this uncertain environment, seasoned analysts provide the strategic insight needed to navigate the turbulent conditions of the cryptocurrency markets.
Analysts Share Altcoin Trading Strategies
Miles Deutscher, a prominent crypto analyst, advises traders to target “quality altcoins” during significant declines. Deutscher defines quality as a strong narrative and relative strength against the broader market.
He recommends sectors that are expected to see momentum as retail investors return. These include real-world assets (RWA), artificial intelligence (AI), and meme coins. Deutscher highlights certain strong altcoins such as MANTRA (OM), SUNDOG, PEPE, Mog Coin (MOG), and Bittensor (TAO).

Moreover, Deutscher argues that asset allocation is more important than timing. He emphasizes that it is important to hold strong, narrative-driven coins rather than trying to time the market for minor price benefits.
“The worst thing that can happen is when you’re in a bull market and you see the market outperform, but your coins don’t outperform, because that leads to all sorts of mistakes, like switching from a coin you have confidence in to a coin you don’t have confidence in to chase the pump. Nobody wants that to happen in the market right now,” Deutscher said.
On social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Deutscher shared his analysis of the TOTAL 3 chart, an index that tracks altcoins excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum. He describes the current trend as a “classic downtrend retracement,” characterized by lower highs and lower lows.
Therefore, he advises caution until the uptrend is firmly established. His trading strategy involves buying significant dips at the bottom of the channel and investing after the structural breakdown has been confirmed in the uptrend.
Likewise, Ansem, another experienced crypto trader, emphasizes the need for selectivity. He emphasizes the importance of choosing altcoins with strong fundamentals and a compelling narrative. Despite the ongoing market difficulties, Ansem is bullish on Solana (SOL) due to its relative strength against major cryptocurrencies and increasing user engagement.
He expects positive developments in mid- to late-2025, along with macroeconomic improvements, including a rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve.

Analyst Crypto Nova also predicts a promising altcoin season in 2025. According to Nova, the market follows a pattern where a minor altcoin season begins, followed by a correction, and then a significant rally the year after the Bitcoin halving event.
Crypto Nova says, “The first minor altcoin season occurs in the year of the halving, i.e. 2016, 2020, and 2024. The major altcoin season is always one year after the halving, i.e. 2017, 2021, and possibly 2025.”
