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
- If price is near ATH, expect volatility — take profits gradually.
- Avoid buying at ATH just because it’s trending.
- 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.
