How to Select Coins for Spot Signal Trading

• Volume & Liquidity
  Choose coins with high daily trading volume (e.g. >$10M daily volume) to ensure easy entry/exit and avoid slippage.
  Use CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko filters for volume and liquidity metrics.
• Volatility (Price Movement)
  Look for coins with volatile price patterns — these provide better entry/exit opportunities.
  Use ATR (Average True Range) or Bollinger Bands to gauge volatility.
• Trending Coins / Momentum
  Focus on coins that are trending upward with increasing volume.
  Check social sentiment on Twitter/X, Reddit, or Telegram (tools: LunarCrush, Santiment).
• Technical Indicator Confirmation
  • EMA crossovers (e.g., 20 EMA > 50 EMA)
  • MACD bullish crossover
  • RSI between 50-70 (momentum)
  • Breakout of horizontal resistance / trendline
• Support from Whales / Smart Money
  Use on-chain data (e.g., Nansen, Whale Alert) to find coins that are accumulated by big wallets.
  Whale activity often precedes price spikes.
• New Listings or Airdrop Hype
  New exchange listings (especially on Binance, Coinbase) often lead to short-term price surges.
  Airdrops and farming incentives can pump short-term interest.
• Catalyst Events / Roadmap Milestones
  Coins with upcoming updates, partnerships, token burns, or ecosystem news are likely to surge.

   • Entry: When 9 EMA crosses above 21 EMA on the 1H or 4H chart.
   • Exit: Cross back downward or RSI diverges.

   • Entry: Bullish divergence between MACD histogram and price.
   • Exit: MACD lines cross again or after a 10–15% gain depending on coin volatility.
4. RSI Bounce (Buy the Dip)
   • Entry: RSI hits oversold zone (<30) on a strong trend coin.
