I think it all depends on your goals, whether you want to profit in dollars or profit in Bitcoin. I even want to profit from Bitcoin, but I have several friends who earn in Dollars and for them it is very good because the trade is easier to make when it is in dollars because the variation is smaller than in Bitcoin.
Today I want to increase my amount of Bitcoin so I always see my altcoins when values are higher in satoshi, but that is my goal.
