When I started trading ETH in Spot mode within my personal strategy, I realized that many people had the same doubt that I saw every day:
"What is the best time to buy in?"
That's why I decided to share my approach, which I have been applying consistently and that can help those who are lost in OTC or in chart analysis.

🔎 1. Identifying the Strongest Moment of the Market
In my strategy, the ideal entry occurs when the market shows real signs of reversal, and not just random movements of volatility.
The signals I observe:
✅ 1. The candle closes above the recent support zone
This shows that buyers defended the price.
At this moment, I usually wait for the candle to close to avoid false breakouts.
✅ 2. Progressive appreciation movement
Recently, for example, ETH had an increase of about 8% in a single day.
This kind of movement shows buying strength.
In this scenario, I could have entered at the beginning of the impulse and exited in the afternoon with profit — without waiting to break previous highs.
✅ 3. Analysis of the new day (daily candle)
At 00:00 (candle change time), I observe:
How the previous day's candle closed
It opened with a gap
If it started with buying or selling momentum
Generally, if the daily candle starts with positive momentum, it strengthens the buying decision.

🟩 2. My Personal Confirmation Rule
Before buying ETH in Spot, I always follow this simple logic:
✔ If the candle closes strong above the support → I buy
✔ If the candle closes weak or with a long lower wick → I wait
✔ If the price touches the support again and holds → I buy with even more confidence
And yes — sometimes I believe that the price might not correct to support again (like in the recent movement).
When the market gives this signal of continuous strength, the strategy is to enter earlier, with a shorter mental stop.

💰 3. How I Will Proceed with the Trade
After entering a buy position, I follow a very objective plan:
📌 1. Monitor the strength of the next candles
If the following candles show continuity, I maintain the position.
📌 2. Take partial profits at the first important peak
Ensuring profit is never bad — especially in Spot.
📌 3. Maintain position until clear signs of exhaustion
This includes:
Long upper wicks
Reversal candle
Loss of a mini-support
📌 4. Never trade with high leverage
My personal preference is x50 at most, but only when the scenario is very obvious.
For Spot trades, market strength is usually sufficient.

🧠 4. Conclusion: The Secret Is Simplicity + Discipline
There is no “perfect moment” to buy ETH — but there is the most likely moment.
The combination that works best for me is:
🟢 Strength + Confirmation + Closed Candle + Defended Support
This simple rule has guided me safely, avoiding hasty entries and protecting my capital.
If this article helps you organize your thoughts before entering a trade, it has already been worth it.
Good trades, family! 🚀
Any questions, I'm around.
