does anyone actually profit from trading alts or just getting chopped up

feels like every time i try to trade alts they pump before i can enter or fake out and dump right after. even with a good setup it’s just constant chop and stop hunts.

been testing Banana Gun trading bot to see if better entries actually help. it snipes fast but still not sure if it makes a real difference or if this market just eats everyone who isn’t already ahead of the move.

is anyone actually making consistent profits trading alts right now or is it just a gamble every time
