I think grouping tokens based on the niche they belong can answer the question "what coin should I trade at the particular moment in time" as it helps to filter the noise and know where the entire market is focusing on. How do you do yours?
Well, I am not a token analyst, but when it comes to finding what to trade in the market, I would say that every crypto asset that is listed on all good exchanges, and have good liquidity and trading volume around them can be traded at any time and day, one doesn't have to only focus on what is trending alone, for sometimes, what is trending may not even give up the kind of profit we want.
Its like a person having a particular place he or she is heading to, but got to a junction where the road seperated, he or she knew that taking the road on the right will lead him or her straight to where he or she is going to, but then, he or she decided to take the road on the left side because alot of persons were going that way.
As a trader, it's important to learn to leave news alone and focus on your own goals, focus on a nitche of narrative that will help you achieve your trading goals, not on what exactly on what is trending, personally, I only give attention to what is trending only if and when there is something to benefit from there.
