From my opinion, it is better for you to buy top 5 coins with reliable function and very well known existence.
If you buy some new coins, there is no guarantee the coins will make you gain
yes, and with choosing the top 5 coins, at least our chance to make a profit will bigger especially if we can do scalping trade which can help us to gain more profit. but still, to choose the right coins is too difficult because I think that not only the top 5 coins that can be profitable but the other coins can also have the profitability too. so we can only choose the right coins by doing analyze in the market and we can collect much information about the coin so we know where the coins want to move.
