There's been a news on the Internet since past couple of months about some websites using mining script which run on client browser. I Googled about it, but couldn't find it's working. Does anybody know how coin mining scripts execute? Is it PHP/JS code injection or something else? Or more specifically, how does it work?

It's Javascript, and done in a very sneaky way often.

I've read that, and similar ones a lot. Any guaranteed tutorial on how to achieve it? ;)

I'm thinking of using coinmarketcap and cryptocompare APIs. Shall post here as soon as I finish developing it.
I use TabTrader app for that exact purpose, although most of the crypto ticker apps have alerts options.
As for trading advice I usually go to https://www.tradingview.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and lookup what the most rated analysts suggest which is far from being 100% accurate.

Fun fact, the guy that created that repo created a machine learning library which I used for my master thesis :)

Does anybody know what price correction means?
A simple definition or useful links?

When everyone starts either buying or selling a lot of bitcoin (or something else), the price tends to move, A LOT. I'll give you a recent example I experienced.

I had just bought my first Etherium coin for about $190 USD. Shortly after, Everyone started selling their coin, causing the price to drop pretty quickly to about $126. I ended up selling the coin I had just bought for around $160 (while it was going down), and buying back at around $130. The price correction kicked in, and the price of Etherium was adjusted to about $170.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It works on my machine...
