ATH (All-Time High)

The highest price a cryptocurrency has ever reached in its history.

ATH, or All-Time High, means the highest price a cryptocurrency has ever reached.

For example, Bitcoin’s ATH in 2021 was around $69,000 — the peak price before it dropped again.
When a coin breaks its previous ATH, it’s called a price discovery phase, since there’s no resistance above that level.

Why it matters

  • ATHs show market confidence and hype peaks.
  • Traders often use previous ATHs as psychological resistance levels.
  • After an ATH, prices often correct sharply, so it’s a risky moment to FOMO in.

How to use it wisely

  1. If price is near ATH, expect volatility — take profits gradually.
  2. Avoid buying at ATH just because it’s trending.
  3. Track ATHs to understand where we are in the market cycle.

💡 Lanzo Tip

When everyone on social media is celebrating new ATHs — that’s your cue to stay calm, not greedy. Markets always cool down after euphoria.
