How do you do it? Technical Analysis + Fundamental Analysis + Instincts + research?

What else? Please share your ideas.

Fundamental analysis is useless, nobody knows where this puppy is going. For he long term it is safe to say we are going up

Research is futile, so much bullshit is being sold.

I'm a HODLer, trading in this market will get you caught off guard and kill your investment.

TIP 1: Don't be greedy. Don't day trade

Actually I can say the following which is actually something in the lines of Warren Buffetts advice.
When people are barging to get in you must leave or HODL through the period.
When people are running for the exit you should buy more or HODL.
If you do what everyone does you will be just as big a bagholder as them.

TIP 2: Don't follow the so-called experts.

That said see this as a lottery ticket. I put in 5k and I have an exit goal.
The exit goal is a specific time or an amount, whichever comes first.

TIP 3: Firmly believe you have lost all your money (even if it is becoming a bigass pile of 5/6/7-digit dollars), it is no longer something you should feel emotions about.

As for day-trading (been there, done that, got the scars). Things happen quick and hard in Bitcoin.

TIP 4: Don't use a stop loss. You WILL get caught out.
TIP 5: Watch out with leverage. You WILL get caught out.
TIP 6: Watch out with going short. You WILL get caught out.
TIP 7: Best thing to trade on are anomalies. Where the price dips 20% in an instance. Grab the coins, wait for the correction, sell with profit.

That said the best of luck
