Hey all. Been trading crypto futures on Binance for a bit now. Stuck on this... how do you choose which token to trade each day? There are over 300 options and my alerts for my strategy are just too much to handle. Any guidance would be awesome.

Alerts can be a nightmare, especially if you're getting pinged every time the price hits. I just ditched them altogether. Stick to one or two coins max. No need to spread yourself thin with lots of coins. Just set TP or SL on your open positions instead.

I think I messed up my question. I'm not talking about managing trades. I mean, how do you pick the tokens that could perform best for the day? Futures let us both long and short, so there's gotta be a way to shortlist them.

No one's gonna hand you that info here. You gotta figure it out for yourself. I'd say go with well-known tokens like bitcoin. They'll give you a better chance.

Why wouldn't anyone help? I don't want specific tokens every day, just trying to learn how people decide. If there's any courses or discussions, I wanna know. Not asking for financial advice though, just want to learn.

I usually check the daily gainers and losers and pick a few from there. I like shorting coins that are oversold in the gainers. Everyone's got their own strategy that fits them, I guess.

You don't just wake up and think, I’ll trade this one. You gotta analyze the market, find a coin that fits your narrative, usually with some chart analysis. Trading on specific symbols limits you. But hey, if you understand the charts, you could trade anything you think will be profitable.

+1 to that. If you're gonna trade based on strategy, why not focus on the trending ones? The top 5 listed coins on coinmarketcap are usually more reliable.

It really boils down to your trading method. Some traders use historical data, others focus on high trading volume. I'd say stick to high-volume tokens for better movement and opportunity.

We all have different methods! I look at the top 30 tokens by their 24-hour volume and analyze them for opportunities. If nothing stands out, I'll check the top 50. Higher volumes mean less manipulation, generally.

High trading volume is key. It helps your trades move faster. Plus, no need to swap out coins daily, that can eat your time. Trading Bitcoin or those top 10 coins could be a solid choice.

Picking a solid token involves guessing if its price will rise in the next few days. Keep an eye on news like listings, burns, and events that could spike the price. News affects prices way more than technical analysis sometimes.

True, we'd rather not see you lose money. Better to research yourself than just ask everyone here. For starters, check the top 100 on Coingecko or Coinmarketcap and narrow down your list from there. Make sure you align with your trading budget too.
