You need to learn market strategies before investing strategies cannot be found without proper knowledge of the market altcoin is a good investment with bitcoin to make a profit as the price of bitcoin rises so does the price of altcoin. There are many investors who are making a profit on altcoin and investing in bitcoin so their currency is doubling this is a good opportunity to buy profits can be made from both sides.
I find it vague on your stand here about market and investment strategies, I think market was specific and investment was the more like the broader concept.
Of course I hodl Bitcoin but I had to go into investing on these altcoin as I couldn't afford to purchase 1Btc at a time. So what I literally do is take profit on these altcoins and buy more Bitcoin regardless of whatever price its sitting.
Newbie should learn about this regardless, they can make profit even just by investing on Bitcoin. Many are worried about the dollar value and not with how much sats or Bitcoin they can afford. This day you got 1 BTC for your BTC balance but mostly if your portfolio are on alts and the other day it goes down and the tendency was it go down fast compare to BTC, that balance would decrease too, let's see it will become 0.95 or something.
