There is a quite practical trading idea in the minute chart—when the price pulls up and forms a pin bar to the upside and the volume increases simultaneously, this is a clear short-selling signal. Set the stop loss right at the tip of the pin, and keep the take profit cycle around 1 to 2 minutes.
Many people ask why not set a wider take profit? Honestly, because we are doing minute-level trading. The current one minute indeed shows a bearish trend, but no one can say for sure whether it will turn upward in the next two or three minutes. The advantage of ultra-short-term trading is that the win rate is indeed not low, but the cost is frequent monitoring and significant psychological fatigue.
This method is especially suitable for traders who have a keen sense of the crypto market and can handle fast-paced trading. Mainstream coins like Bitcoin and ETH are sufficiently volatile to provide enough room for ultra-short-term operations.

Pinpoint smashing is indeed very useful, but you need to have a tough mentality. I used to watch the market so frequently that my hands would shake...

Pinpoint smashing, I've played this set before. It’s indeed fast but mentally exhausting.

This strategy sounds good, but how many can actually stick to taking profits within 1-2 minutes? Most still get greedy and end up getting hit back.

Inserting pins to increase volume and shorting sounds like a good move, but it depends on whether your reaction speed can keep up and if your mindset can handle the frequent monitoring of the market...

Pin insertion volume decreases and closes bearish. I've played this trick before; it can indeed be a bottom-fishing strategy, but you have to keep an eye on it all the time. It's exhausting.

Pin insertion volume increases and closes bearish? Sounds simple, but in practice, you need a bit of resolve. I have to stare at the screen for 1-2 minutes.
