There is no reliable way to accurately know or predict future price signals (i.e. exact future movements) in cryptocurrency with high certainty.
The market is extremely volatile, influenced by thousands of unpredictable factors (news, regulations, whale moves, macro events, sentiment, hacks, etc.). Anyone who sells you "guaranteed future signals" is most likely scamming or overhyping.
That said, here are the realistic approaches that serious traders actually use in 2026 to get an edge (probabilistic advantage, not certainty):
1. Technical Analysis (Most Popular Short/Medium-Term Method)
Study price charts + indicators to find high-probability setups.
Common tools that still work reasonably well:
Support/Resistance + trend lines
Moving Averages (50/200 EMA golden/death cross)
RSI (overbought >70, oversold <30)
MACD crossovers
Volume confirmation
Candlestick patterns (engulfing, pin bars, inside bars)
Fibonacci retracement/extension levels
→ Many traders combine 2–4 of these + price action and look for confluence (multiple signals aligning).
2. On-Chain & Market Cycle Indicators (Better for Medium/Long-Term)
These are often more reliable than pure price charts for spotting major turns.
Popular ones in 2026:
Bitcoin Dominance (↓ = altseason likely)
Funding rates (extreme positive = overheated longs → possible dump)
Open Interest + Liquidations heatmap
Puell Multiple, MVRV Z-Score, Pi Cycle Top
Whale wallet movements
ETF flows (especially BTC/ETH spot ETFs)
Many people watch CoinMarketCap or CryptoQuant / Glassnode dashboards for these.
3. Sentiment & News Flow (Very Powerful but Noisy)
Track X (Twitter) crypto influencers, especially when many suddenly flip bearish/bullish
Monitor Fear & Greed Index
Watch macro news: Fed rates, regulations, big company adoption, geopolitical events
Tools like LunarCrush or Santiment for social volume spikes
4. Paid Trading Signals Groups (Popular but Risky)
Many people follow Telegram/Discord groups.
