It is commonly presented by means of charts called Japanese candlestickswhich, if interpreted correctly, help us to understand which is the predominant force of the market, whether it is the buyers (upward movements, the price goes up) or the sellers (downward movements, the price goes down).

Also, you can put together several variables such as change models or trend continuity, volume and indicators, to create a strategy that is right for you. You can practice your strategy for analyzing cryptos for free on platforms such as Tradingview y Poopcoin.app.

-Fundamental Analysis: In the case of cryptos you should find out about news of the sector, how it is going economically and politically; because these are part of the causes that affect the market.

But you must also select projects that in the medium and long term provide real and practical solutions. For this, analyze the whitepaper of each project, identify what type of cryptocurrency it is and what it will be used for (stablecoins, security tokens, utility tokens, etc.), governanceetc) and evaluates the team and stakeholders in the project.

Remember, overvalued assets should be avoided, while undervalued assets are more ideal because of their growth potential.
