The Wave Report #13 - Altseason Ignition: Phase 3 is loading

Altseason isn’t a date on the calendar.
It’s a chain reaction.

Once it starts, it doesn’t stop until retail is all-in on dog coins and your Uber driver is pitching you low-cap gems.

Right now, that chain reaction is starting and the charts are lining up exactly how they should.

1. The roadmap

Every rotation follows the same phases:

1️⃣ BTC Dominance peaks: Bitcoin crushes alts.
2️⃣ Ethereum outperforms BTC: the first rotation trigger.
3️⃣ Large caps run: SOL, XRP,BNB,… lead the charge.
4️⃣ Mid caps surge: liquidity spreads down the list.
5️⃣ Low caps explode: peak speculation phase.
6️⃣ Meme season: final euphoric blow-off before the exit door slams shut.

We’re currently in phase 2.

2. Ethereum leads the way

Every altseason starts the same way. Bitcoin runs the show… until it doesn’t.

The hand-off always goes to Ethereum first. And if you know where to look, you can see it before the crowd.

That signal? ETH/BTC breaking down.

It’s happening again.
ETH/BTC just printed a clean breakdown on the monthly. RSI broke below the moving average for the first time since Jan 2020 right before Ethereum took the lead vs Bitcoin.

This is the crack in Bitcoin’s dominance.
When ETH starts to move, the floodgates open for the rest of the market.

The chart is telling us ETH is stepping into the lead.
And when that happens… phase 2 isn’t coming. It’s here.

3. How phase 3 will start

Phase 3 is where the pure altcoin market wakes up.
After ETH takes the lead in Phase 2, liquidity spills into the rest of the field, starting with the large caps.

The chart above is TOTAL3 (on the monthly chart): the total crypto market cap excluding both BTC and ETH.
In other words: the combined value of every other altcoin out there.

Here’s why it matters:
Phase 3 kicks off when TOTAL3 brakes above its previous ATH.

Right now, price is wedged between two forces:

• Major horizontal resistance overhead

• Long-term trendline support underneath

It’s a pressure cooker.
Every candle that forms in this tight range builds more energy.
The monthly stochastic RSI has already fired a bullish cross: a signal that momentum is shifting before the breakout even happens.

When it breaks out, large caps like SOL, BNB, XRP,… will sprint first, pulling the rest of the market into the run.

This is the moment the market stops feeling “selective” and starts feeling inevitable.

Phase 3 isn’t months away, it’s right in front of us.

4. My play

Here’s exactly how I’m positioned right now:
✅ 80% out of BTC - profits locked.
✅ Riding ETH - the phase 2 leader.
✅ Scaling into large caps - ready for Phase 3.

When this music stops, there will be no warning. You either have a plan, or the market will make one for you and you probably won’t like it.

I’ve seen it happen many times.
Traders ride the wave up… but when it’s time to exit, they hesitate, they guess, they hope. And the market takes it all back.

That’s why I built The Ultimate Take-Profit Blueprint: a simple, repeatable framework to scale out without guessing, emotions, or hopium.
