Many people often ask me how to survive in this market without being too miserable, what are the secrets to choosing coins, and how to find good entry points. My answer is actually just a few words: stable, accurate, ruthless. It sounds simple, but few can truly do it. Today, I will break down this methodology completely for everyone, all based on blood, sweat, and tears lessons learned from crawling out of market pitfalls.

The core logic boils down to two sentences: only engage with coins whose trends are already clear; only aim for relatively certain profits. Don’t try to guess where the bottom is, don’t try to guess the top, and don’t care about those incomplete tail-end market moves. It may sound like old advice, but strictly following this discipline can help you avoid most loss traps.

**How to find truly worthwhile coins?**

My daily routine is very fixed. As soon as the market opens each day, the first thing I do is check the top gainers list, paying special attention to coins that have shown obvious anomalies and sudden increases in trading volume over the past half month. Why? Because only coins with real money pouring in have the potential to sustain a continuous rise. Coins that have been sunbathing at the bottom for a long time and have extremely low trading activity are a waste of time and mental energy to watch. Market funds always flow toward hot spots, and the more attention a coin gets from the market, the more likely its community and narrative behind it are vibrant.

For example, when AI narratives were particularly hot recently, related concept coins clearly saw institutional and retail funds rushing in. This is the most direct sign of "live coins." But I want to emphasize that seeing these opportunities doesn’t mean you should rush in immediately. My approach is to add them to my watchlist first, then wait for the right entry signals.

**Key signal: Monthly MACD Golden Cross**

This is the technical indicator I value most. A monthly-level golden cross is a real trend initiation signal. Entering at this point means you are riding the big trend, not gambling on short-term oversold rebounds.

Why focus on the monthly chart? Because it filters out short-term noise and interference, revealing the true intentions of big funds. Once the monthly MACD forms a golden cross, it indicates that medium- to long-term trend may be turning. Such signals often come with real money entering the market. Experienced investors understand that in the mid-stage of a bull market, those coins carrying big narratives are usually the main targets for sell-offs.

The core of this methodology is: replace luck with discipline, replace feeling with trend confirmation. The market will always give opportunities to those with patience.
