The overall crypto market is likely going to continue to remain quite dull for a while yet and not provide many opportunities to swing trade outside of small pockets here and there.

Most of the action will likely be in scalps that are a "See BTC, take BTC" scenario.

I am still weighing the option of more XMR paired trades than BTC for the remainder of this cycle and then converting on the way out.

Not commited either way yet, been focused on BTC pairings since January 2022 and have not had any regrets on that decision.

However, at around 0.002 BTC = 1 XMR I'm liking the XMR pairs more from a long term BTC perspective
