If so, what wallet(s), exchanges, etc. are you using? And more specifically, what crypto do you recommend converting BTC to, in this situation?
Any help is appreciated!
That's the normal and very basic trading technique. Buy at dips and sell at high. However, to know when to buy and when to sell, you need to monitor the market continuously and then only you will be able to determine that.
Also I won't recommend you to use any altcoin with btc trading because their price are really volatile. So unless you monitor that market very closely, you may make loss from your trading. Instead, I will suggest you to use btc/usd pair only because it is easy to monitor and understand.
