but, market has the opportunity to do the most funny thing; ofc when the dude fully leaves.
maybe a decent CTO.

what a cook this would’ve been.

anyhoo, back in the trenches, let’s see if we can catch another runner.

The degen trenches is a very volatile play ground, where the PvP <Player vs Player> wars are quite intense.

RULES

•Always take out initials when up more than 2x
<very important to secure your capital>

•Try not to buy the top of coins; for example if I shill a play and it has already cooked maybe a decent 3-4x above, wait for the next and try to be early on it.
<focus on being the earliest bidder not the highest bidder>

•If you tryna build your portfolio, let’s say you’ve got a $100 portfolio for instance; ape just around 20% of it, get a 2-3x, remove your initials. If it eventually runs, take out profits then withdraw to a seperate wallet. Then you start all over again with your $100, ape 20% in the next play, rinse n repeat. That way, if another plays pops up while you’re currently in one, you’ll have the capital to ape.
<never go all in with 80-100% of your portfolio in a trade; literally the fastest and easiest way to get burnt>

HOW TO TRADE? ——— STUDY.

Trading Bots I use🤖

$SOL <Phantom Wallet>

•Photon trading bot ~> https://photon-sol.tinyastro.io/@stayincontrol

•SolTradingBot ~> @SolTradingBot

•Trojan on Solana ~> @helenus_trojanbot

Any of these trading bots works. Personally I use the first tho, but it’s web based. Can be used on a mobile device via a browser. First you’ll need to create an account with a desktop pc, then link to your mobile browser.
Apparently I’m more comfortable trading on PC as opposed to using a phone. You can track dev trades <buy/sell> live on a PC and in photon by just navigating through the holders.
<ps: this is available on the phone web version too, just way easier via a pc>

Photon also has a “memescope” section that shows you
•Newly Created
•About to Graduate
•Graduated
These are easier to use when trying to find decent bets on pump.fun

Hated pump.fun because it ruined the market a bit, it’s kind of a hub where users have the ability to create their own tokens with just a single click. But now the market adapted, if you play your cards well and with the right filters, you’ll be able to spot decent plays.

Yes this is true, but I figured out the reason dudes loose a lot, is because they’re stuck tryna place bids on coins that are still under the “Newly Created” section of pumpfun. Ofc that’s the best way to hit good bank if you’re lucky on one. But also the fastest way to burn your port in an endless hunt of a 100x or 1000x.

Focus mainly on “Graduated” tokens. That’s where the true fun at.
If you’re lucky to catch a good play around the $100-$200k zone, provided it’s a good narrative with a decent team running it <CTO or not>, it should run a bit.

Filters I use for the Graduated section:
•Dev holdings —— 3% <I prefer 0>
but in some really good cooks, dev holds, and maybe burns some units.
•Marketcap —— $100k.

When the filters brings up a decent coin on your radar, next thing you’ll wanna do is filter these “preferred coins” using tools.

THINGS TO CONSIDER

•Top Holders: Check the top 10 holders; they have the strongest power over the growth of a coin. if you see dudes with $100-$200 or lesser in $SOL, it’ll prolly nuke xD, well because imagine having $2k worth of a coin, and you have only $100 in $SOL. Yes they definitely dunking on you once you buy.
What checks sometimes is if you see whales in other coins in that particular coin you tryna vet ($100k-$1m type whales). Then you know it’s prolly worth gambling on.
Bots to use: @th_sol_scanner_bot or @Phanes_bot

•Bundled supply: in the past, devs usually just snipe a coin and split btw wallets, but that became too obvious via bubblemaps and other tools. Devs became creative, now they fund different wallets, then snipe their supply within the same timeframe. Quite harder to track via bubblemaps, but there are several bots you can use.
If a supply is heavily bundled, maybe 30-50%, it’ll def dump all at once at some point or not, depending on if it’s prolly just a kabal cook where they tryna control growth of a coin by holding the most supply.
Bots to use: @TrenchScannerBot or the web version https://trench.bot/bundles

•DEX paid: dexscreener is an app where you can track realtime price data, and also the socials of a coin. When DEX gets paid; most times this could be a buy signal on a newly created coin, shows the team is serious.
Bots to use: @RickBurpBot

yeah all these are prolly a lot, but if you’re consistent, you’ll be able to research quicker on coins before they blow up.
and prolly save yourself a lot of Ls.

now I deserve 1k subs, wen 1k?

hmmm, I aped this around the $60k zone.
$KUZA on $SOL
apparently it’s the same dude behind $BETH CTO, trying to CTO this too.

placing a bet that he knows what he’s doing, so I aped some units here.

spray and pray type shiii.
Let’s play.

still quite bundled tho and top holders look like shyte, so ape only units you tryna loose.

2x ——— $120k.

dex paid, dex ads paid, dex boost paid.

yup, same CTO team, second time’s the charm no?

clean bounce.
