September BTC Pullbacks Likely to Drag Altcoins Lower

I’ve noticed Bitcoin historically posts a notable pullback in September, and when BTC drops, most altcoins tend to fall even harder. That pattern increases downside risk for alt-heavy portfolios this month.

Given that correlation, I’m reducing exposure to smaller alts, tightening stops, and shifting a portion of risk into BTC or stablecoins until I see clear market stabilization. I’ll wait for confirmed support and lower correlation before adding new alt positions.

Recommendation

I recommend not buying altcoins now: trim alt exposures, tighten stop-losses, consider moving proceeds to BTC or stablecoins, and re-enter alts only after clear support and reduced correlation.
