1. Buy During Dips (But Not Just Any Dip)
• Look for major corrections (e.g., 15-30% drops from recent highs).
• Be cautious: not every dip means it will bounce back soon.
Tip: Use tools like RSI (Relative Strength Index) — if RSI < 30, the asset may be oversold (a possible buy signal).

2. Avoid FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) Buys
• Don’t buy during hype peaks or when a coin is trending everywhere — often, prices crash afterward.

3. Use Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)
• Instead of trying to time the market perfectly, invest a fixed amount regularly (daily, weekly, or monthly).
• Helps you buy at both highs and lows — averaging your cost.

4. Consider Time of Day (Short-Term Traders)
• Early mornings (UTC time) often see more volatility and trading volume.
• Some traders observe lower prices during weekends when institutional volume is low, but this isn’t always reliable.

5. Monitor Market Sentiment
• Use sites like:
• CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko – for real-time data.
• Fear & Greed Index – to judge general market emotion.
• News & macro events – Fed rate decisions, regulations, etc., can impact crypto prices.
