i dont think there is any sure shot way yet. investing for gains requires a lot of research on your part. some techniques you could use to be fairly certain that your investments are in good hands but then again it isn't guaranteed, ICO's usually market aggressively and it could feel like u are missing out on a great opportunity but dont worry there is no such thing as too much research.
1. company background
2. company HQ
3. team members backgrounds
4. maybe pay a visit if you stay close by the HQ
5. see who is financially backing the ICO

the above are just some precautions you can take, but you still have to be vigilant.
