In this YouTube monologue, Alexander Lorenzo explains his conviction that position trading—holding altcoin positions for three months to two years—is more lucrative than swing trading. He outlines his strategy of allocating 70% of his capital to long‑term positions, emphasizing fewer trades, larger wins, and the ability to commit more capital safely compared to high‑risk, short‑term swings. Lorenzo provides concrete examples, such as investing $20,000 in a promising coin for a potential 25x return, contrasting this with smaller, high‑risk bets that yield high multiples but limited profit due to low capital exposure. The core message is that a disciplined, long‑term position‑trading approach has generated the majority of his earnings.

It is more lucrative than swing trades. I truly believe this. There's a reason why I believe I allocate 70% of my capital, right? Position trade means that you hold your positions. You're not worried about price entry too much, but you're holding a position from anywhere from 3 months to 2 years. This is why we say that, right? 3 months to 2 years, right? Buy low, sell high. That's a position trade. Within here, you're taking— you're buying a coin, an altcoin. By the way, I want to be clear with you. It is more lucrative than swing trades. I truly believe this. There's a reason why I believe I allocate 70% of my capital. Less trades, bigger wins, bigger money. It's not because there are better percentages. That is not the case. That is not the case. It's because you can allocate more capital safer, and it's a little step below the swings. So, so like, and if you look at the entirety of the strategy, I believe position trading is significant. It's made me— that's made me the most money by far. By far. So for example, you can get 100x all you want, but if you're putting in, you know, $200, who cares, right? That's great. But if you just— but if you put— if you, if you have a coin where like it looks good and you're dropping $20,000 and you're getting like, uh, you know, 25x, I mean, that, that's, that's crazy. Does that make sense? It's— but you can't drop that type of capital in such a high-risk coin.
