TOTAL3 Signals: Altcoin Season IncomingHello Traders 🐺
In this idea, I want to talk about TOTAL3, which represents the total Altcoins market cap excluding BTC and ETH. In my opinion, this is a very key metric to recognize the beginning or the end of an Altcoin season.
Everything is pretty clear on the chart, so I’ll keep the explanation quick and useful. As you can see, price is forming an ascending triangle, which is a very bullish sign according to TA. Also, when you apply Fibonacci tools, you can see that if price breaks above the current resistance — which is the ATH — the next target is at the 0.5 Fibonacci level, giving roughly 70% potential pump from here.
Moreover, in the RSI, we need to see a break above 70 to enter the real FOMO phase in the Altcoins section.
I hope you enjoy this idea, and as always, remember:

TOTAL 3 New Update (1D)As you know, capital first flows into Bitcoin, then into Ethereum, and afterward into other altcoins. This index serves as a good indicator to understand when altcoins, apart from Ethereum, will turn bullish.
It seems that one more corrective wave remains in this index, which could complete within one of the green zones. After that, we expect to see another bullish wave.
The targets are marked on the chart.
A daily candle close below the invalidation level will nullify this analysis.
For risk management, please don't forget stop loss and capital management
When we reach the first target, save some profit and then change the stop to entry

Alt season trigger level 0.2 - 0.25$(CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL3-CRYPTOCAP:USDT-CRYPTOCAP:USDC)/CRYPTOCAP:BTC
Description:
I’m closely watching the (TOTAL3 – USDT – USDC) / BTC ratio as a key signal for the next altcoin season.
📊 Expectation:
Once this ratio hits 0.25, I believe it could mark the beginning of strong capital rotation from Bitcoin into altcoins.
💡 Why it matters:
When this ratio rises, it suggests liquidity is leaving stablecoins.
Bitcoin dominance may weaken.
Altcoins tend to outperform when this setup occurs.
If the 0.25 level confirms and momentum builds, we could see the start of a strong altcoin rally.
⚠️ This is not financial advice, just my market observation.
***REMINDER*** of the TOTAL 3 Targets.We are on the cusp of price discovery in many key assets that will contribute to the upcoming alt season.
The Russell 2000 #RTY is close to all time highs..
#GOLD is charging ahead which often pulls up ~BTC
#ETHEREUM hit a new all time already and retraced ... so the next break above will likely see price discovery and vacuum price action to fib extension around $7.5k
#BTCd dominance has topped.
This cup and handle for Total 3 has been a long time in the making which suggests a powerful move is likely to occur.
Monthly logarithmic chart on total3 suggests it could 44x!On the total3 chart we can see the majority of altcoins (excluding ethereum) have been consolidating for quite a long time in this ascending triangle which s also a bullish pennant. These patterns break to the upside far more than they break to the downside and this current one is nearing its apex. If we clued the pole of the pennant to calculate the Bullish breakout target/measured move, we can see that the target is 44 x higher than the current price. Of course this beng a logarithmic scale pattern, it may not ht its full 100% breakout target for multiple years even, but the angle of the measured move line does suggest we could see it reach such heights by 2028 and possibly even before it. *not financial advice*
The Anatomy of a Trap: Total 3Chart, Wyckoff DistributionPrice action is beginning to show characteristics often associated with distribution. Multiple retests of resistance with waning momentum could be a sign of absorption rather than genuine strength. If this pattern develops further, the next move may involve a deceptive breakout attempt before revealing the market’s true direction.”
ALT SEASON is VERY soon! Everyone is aware (or I hope) of the giant Cup&Handle on TOTAL3.
Total3 in a very tight flag right at the breakout level.
BTC is oversold on the 3D and 4D charts and have pierced the 3D bands which has been the bottom since 2023 (or at least incredibly close).
Bitcoin has a Bearish Divergence on RSI which has many bears calling for the “Top”. I’m here to tell you that that “Bearish Divergence” is our rocket platform because it’s going to Undiverge very soon.
NASDAQ:COIN and NASDAQ:MSTR are have hit their bottom for the next wave (or at least are only 0-3% off).
I’ve been right so far on my calls for NASDAQ:TSLA and XLV which are both climbing higher. Alt season is my next major call. Watch and learn bears.
Altcoin Market (TOTAL3) Gearing Up for a Major Test at $1.12T🔥 Altcoin Market (TOTAL3) Gearing Up for a Major Test at $1.12T 📊
Hey guys, Kiri here – the FX Professor.
If you haven’t seen my latest video post, go check it out — I broke down the full story behind Powell, Trump, and the ping-pong match they’re playing with this market. But today, let’s zoom in on what really matters: the Total Crypto Market Cap excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum — TOTAL3 .
🔍 What’s happening?
TOTAL3 is still trading inside its large ascending channel. What we’re watching now is the setup for the third and most decisive test at the $1.12T level.
Why does this matter? Because this level has already caused two strong rejections. A third test here could either confirm the breakout … or become the market’s trapdoor.
🧠 Context:
• S&P 500 is holding above major resistance ✅
• Rate cut decisions expected in September (Powell’s words) 🗓️
• Bitcoin & Ethereum still acting strong — ETH especially outperforming 👑
🎯 What’s the expectation?
I’m leaning more bullish right now. With the macro picture improving and equities pushing higher, I believe we’ll see another test of that 1.12T level soon .
From there, it’s all about the breakout or the rejection.
🚀 If we break out:
Target zones open up at 1.39T and 1.51T — the upper bounds of this long-term channel.
📉 If we reject:
Expect a return to the lower boundary near 898B , adjusting slightly over time since it’s an ascending level.
🧭 Final thoughts:
Markets don’t lie — levels do.
The narrative, the noise, the ping-pong politics… they’re all part of the distraction.
But price? It’s still playing within the structure.
Keep your eyes on 1.12T. That’s the battlefield.
One Love,

Ethereum VS Altcoins: The Must-Watch RatioNew all-time high! The price of Ether indeed reached a new all-time high during the trading session on Sunday, August 24, surpassing 4,900 US dollars. The loop is therefore closed with a market that has returned to the previous cycle’s all-time high, the record set back in November 2021.
It now makes perfect sense for the market to take a pause and enter a consolidation phase after the vertical bullish move in place since last April. It is important to know how to secure profits when the market comes back into contact with major resistance.
In this new analysis, I will discuss the relationship between Ethereum and altcoins. Since the beginning of the summer, BTC dominance has significantly declined, but this cannot be considered an altcoin season. Indeed, this decline mainly stems from Ether’s strong rebound.
Today I present to you the decisive barometer that allows us to clearly distinguish between a period favorable to Ethereum and one favorable to altcoins.
1. The Ether token marked a new all-time high above 4,900 US dollars during the trading session on Sunday, August 24.
Technical target reached! ETH/USD therefore registered a new all-time high during the trading session on Sunday, August 24. The market briefly surpassed the November 2021 record before entering a logical and technically very healthy consolidation phase.
The new major support is located at 3,900/4,000$ on the technical analysis level, while the major resistance stands at 4,900$. A lateral transition phase could develop between these two levels before the underlying bullish trend resumes.
The chart below shows ETH/USD weekly candlesticks:
2. Here is the decisive indicator that helps clearly distinguish ETH season from altcoin season
Most investors misunderstood the decline in BTC dominance since the beginning of the summer. It was not an altcoin season but rather a period favorable to Ethereum.
Below you will find the decisive barometer that helps understand the relative strength between altcoins (TOTAL 3) and Ethereum. As long as the altcoins/ETH ratio trend (TOTAL 3 / ETH) remains bearish, the market is in ETH season and not in altcoin season.
You can observe a slightly upward channel chart pattern. It will therefore be crucial to watch the reaction of this ratio as it approaches the lower part of the channel. A rebound from the lower part could be a signal more favorable to altcoins.

Big Short or Big Pump? The Market is Playing Ping-Pong With Us🎾 Big Short or Big Pump? The Market is Playing Ping-Pong With Us 🏓
Hey guys, Kiri here – the FX Professor.
Lately, it’s been neither a big short nor a big pump… Instead, it feels like the market is just playing ping-pong with us .
Powell talks rate cuts → market pumps.
A day later → it dumps.
Trump and Powell, back and forth like a match, while the crowd watches — dizzy, confused, getting played.
That’s why I created this image — a snapshot of the real game being played. Trump and Powell at the table, meme coins in the audience, ETH as queen, BTC as king sipping espresso ☕👑
But back to the charts…
📊 What’s Happening on the Charts:
• BTC + S&P 500: Sideways — no clear trend.
• Total Crypto Market Cap (Excl. BTC & ETH): The only chart that really matters right now.
We’ve already seen 2 rejections in the middle of the channel (Red 1 and 2).
The 3rd test at 1.12T is coming — and that’s going to be the moment of truth.
🚀 If it breaks above 1.12T:
Targets become 1.39T and 1.51T. Momentum will likely return to altcoins.
⚠️ If it rejects again:
Look for a drop toward the 898B area of support (give or take, since the support is ascending).
🪙 Snapshot:
• Bitcoin: Still king. The new digital gold. Calm and collected. ☕
• Ethereum: Outperforming majors. Despite short-term dips, still parabolic. 👑
• Altcoins: Waiting. Still not breaking out. The 1.12T level will decide the fate.
⚠️ The Takeaway:
FOMO. FUD. Headlines. Distractions.
Trump and Powell may look like they’re battling it out… but it’s us getting hit with the ball over and over again. 🎾
The only edge we’ve got? Key levels .
Watch the chart. Trade the level. Ignore the noise.
I’ll be posting updated BTC, ETH, and altcoin charts later today — stay tuned, and stay focused on what matters: the third test at 1.12T.

TOTAL3 & Bullish ResistanceThe cup pattern. A bowl. A curve... If you draw a straight line from the last peak, left to right, you can get the pattern neckline, the base. When this resistance is being challenged it means the market is ready to move ahead. The more that it is challenged, the weaker it becomes.
See here the long-term TOTAL3 index chart. Very strong volume. Strong bullish conditions. Trading above all moving averages, everything looks great.
'Resistance' is being faced at the right end of the pattern, just as it happened back in November 2024. This is a bullish pattern. There can be a drop, retrace at resistance, followed by additional growth. The way the chart looks now we are aiming at a repeat of 2024. A rising line. Straight up.
While we have a steady rise since 7-April this is part of a period of bullish consolidation, the real breakout is yet to happen. The bigger portion of the bullish move is yet to show up. The best is yet to come.
Everything will be much better; higher prices, in the coming months.
The altcoins market will continue to grow. Market conditions will continue to improve and Bitcoin will stabilize at a high price only to continue with its eternal bull-trend.
Thank you for reading.
Namaste.
TOTAL3 double top with bearish divergenceThe TOTAL3 (altcoin market cap excluding BTC & ETH) has now climbed back to the $1T zone, almost testing its previous highs. But if we look closer, the chart is flashing a clear bearish divergence alongside a double top (M-pattern) structure.
Here’s the key takeaway:
If the pattern plays out, 950B support becomes the crucial line to watch.
A bounce at 950B could just be a healthy correction from the bearish divergence.
But if 950B breaks, the next strong support sits near 786B.
That zone could open doors for fresh altcoin accumulation opportunities. On the other hand, for those already holding, this level can also be considered a final profit-taking area before a deeper correction sets in.
Overall, the chart suggests the altcoin market is due for correction, especially with Bitcoin dominance on the rise. Patience and risk management are key here.
