The two most asked questions among friends in the circle: How to find the truly rising coins among thousands of tokens? How to determine entry and exit points so that you neither miss out nor get trapped?

I have seen too many people holding real cash, yet getting cut during hot trends or stuck in the middle of bottom-fishing, feeling uncomfortable. To be honest, making money in the crypto world never relies on luck or secret shortcuts. Over these five years of ups and downs, I have developed a set of "simple methods"—no fancy jargon, no complex indicators stacked together, just four core logics to support: logical reasoning, decisive action, well-timed moves, and stop-loss to protect capital. Following this system can help you pay at least 80% less "tuition," based on my personal experience.

To clarify: I do not recommend any specific asset; I only share how to filter and how to operate, because truly making money depends on your own judgment.

**Step 1: Filter "Active Players" — Skip sideways markets directly**

Every day at market open, my first task is not to dig for rumors, but to pull up the recent two-week price increase chart and trading volume data. Focus on two types of assets: one with rhythmic volatility, not jumping randomly; the other with increased trading volume but no inexplicable surges.

Honestly—assets nobody pays attention to are like a dead pond; no matter how long you wait, no waves will form. Only those with main funds entering and market activity picking up can turn into opportunities. Those that have been sideways for years with very low trading volume can be discarded immediately—don’t waste time on them.

**Step 2: Look at the big picture — Monthly golden cross is the real signal**

Many beginners easily fall into the trap of getting overly excited by daily fluctuations—buying after a two-point rise, panicking and selling after a three-point drop. Brother, intraday movements are just "noise." What truly matters is the monthly golden cross—that’s the real signal of a big trend starting. Once the monthly chart shows a good setup, short-term pullbacks are opportunities to add positions, not reasons to run away.
