According to Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL), the key tip for traders entering an altcoin bull market is to avoid using leverage and refrain from excessively monitoring trades. He advises that spot trading alone will be sufficient to generate significant profits. Van de Poppe warns that during these periods, volatility and trader emotions can surge, and corrections are likely to be harsh, making it crucial for traders to maintain emotional stability and 'stay sane' by sticking to simpler, less risky strategies.

According to Compounding Quality on Twitter, two of the most common trading mistakes investors make are panic selling during bear markets and panic buying during bull markets (source: @QCompounding, May 10, 2025). These impulsive actions can lead to missed opportunities for gains and increase the risk of losses, especially in volatile markets such as cryptocurrency. Traders are advised to establish clear entry and exit strategies and to avoid emotional decisions that drive poor timing, which can significantly impact crypto portfolio performance.
