The rotation trap is one of the most subtle ways to lose money in crypto.

You have two coins: one has grown, the other is stagnant. The desire arises to sell the weak one and buy the leader of the growth. It seems logical, but often it's just the effect of "what recently grew."

The problem is that in crypto, this sometimes actually works — which is why the trap is not obvious.

The only decent filter: has your idea changed or just the price.

If only the price has changed — it's better to do nothing. In most cases, you're just chasing the movement and already too late.
