If you are a retail investor who doesn't know how to choose a coin from a technical perspective, don't force yourself to play with the trend. It is a wise choice to follow the trend and speculate on the leading coin at this time.
The characteristic of the leading coin is that it is relatively independent of the trend of the market. It leads the market when the market rises, it goes sideways when the market falls back, and it continues to rush when the market stabilizes!
However, many retail investors lose because they have no sense of faith and cannot stand sporadic small fluctuations. Once there is a callback or a period of stagflation, they will start to doubt and make various tricks. In the end, there will be fewer and fewer good leading coins.
If your skills are not very advanced and you are optimistic about a coin, the best operation is to hold it.
