Covers all the tricks/tips I've learned to become profitable trading low caps
Let's take a look:
1) Buying dips using 40%/60%/80-90% strategy:
The 40% strat: - Coins with high volume/narrative/constant ATH retests don't often reach the 60% pullback
- Dips become shallower when the coin begins to go parabolic (25-35%)
- When dips get to less than 20%, blow off the top soon



2) Buying dips 40% strat P2:
- Holders usually go parabolic during this phase
- Check Twitter Cashtags, few posts a minute gives you a good idea
- Once the blow off happens, thats when you get your first 60% pullback
- That first 60% pullback should be bought (2-3x+ follows)

3) Buying dips 60% strat:
- 60% pullback is the pattern you will see the most
- Aligns with the .618 Fib retrace + the Golden Pocket (.618-.65)
- Works on nearly every coin
- Volume must follow to back up the retrace
- You buy the first 60%, 2/3rd are a lot more risky




4) Buying dips 60% strat P2:
- Works on fresh launches, if it isn't doing the 40%- that first 60% pullback likely sends it to ATH's and beyond
- Can go as deep as 65%, if the 60% fails you'll be looking at a 80-90% retrace
- Highest strike rate when it has confluence w/prev ath



5) Buying dips 80-90% strat:
- First demand area forms after launch (OB)
- Price gravitates towards it
- Usually get ample time to buy/retests as token is deemed "dead"
- Buy volume has to stay consistent -
Distribution gets better
- Higher risk
- betting on the team + community
6) Buying dips 80-90% strat P2:
- Stick to LTFs when drawing the demand area (1s/1m/5m)
- Rounded bottoms form
- invalidation is easier (below OB/bottom of the range)
- Usually comes from a heavily sniped launch + some type of FUD
- Betting on the team to deliver
7) Buying dips 80-90% strat P3: Understanding it:
- Insiders/Snipers/Twitter runs it up first
- Large holders dump + FUD
- Community stays strong, holders increase
- Snipers out
- Less holders with 2%+ of supply (needed)
- Devs ship
- People who TP'd on initial run chase again

How to play launches: Types of launches:
1) Presale launch

- Never ape the first candle unless you're sniping
- Small window to exit (1-2hrs)
- Don't knife catch - wait until it forms a range below listing price
- Track presale wallets
- Entry: Buy range lows/ Buy breakout retest
- Exit: TP Post listing high
2) Fair launch Let's break down the price action + how to trade them below

- Fresh narrative + volume - latter price action
- Extremely shallow pullbacks until parabola/trendline breaks
- Once trend breaks- first 60% pullback happens
- Chasing really only works under 300k mcap
- Buying first 60% pullback is a safer bet
Trading fair launches P2:
Two different types of price action
1) Latter price action (Volume + Hype + Narrative)
2) Consolidation/Sideways before expansion (Low holders + No cashtags + No tweets + Small community)
Latter PA is easier to trade - Sideways is a gamble



Trading fair launches P3:
Consolidation price action:
- If token launch doesn't go well (latter) teams dip
- Better to bet on sideways tokens that aren't a fork/late narrative token
- Between 20-50k mcap
- New narratives: Longer holdtime
- Recycled: Dump after an hour or 2
Using marketcaps as SR levels / TPs
Mcap Resistence:
- 100k
- 250-300k
- 850-1m
- 2.2-3m
- 7-12m
- 25-30m
- 100-200m
If your token is going up, flipping each mcap is a good sign it will move to the next target
If your token can't hold previous mcap resis, take profits
Marketcap support/resis P2:
- 1m is the main hurdle to get over
- 2-3m (depends on conditions) is where more hyped coins temp top
- 10m is usually the blow off area
- Clean 10m flip -> 20-30 follows
- Clean 30m flip -> Narrative leader and 100-200m+
Marketcap support/resis P3:
- If your coin fails to gain previous mcap support, take profits/dump bag
- The 3m-1m mcap dip is around a 60% pullback- good place to buy if you're targeting 10m
- Coins generally touch 12m-> flipping 10m hard easy road to 30m
- Use resis for TPs
Marketcap support/resis P4:
- Narrative leaders can pretty easily go to 20-30m
- Forks/Beta plays trade about 10% to the mcap of the leader (30m leader-> 3m mcap beta play)
- Any beta that runs above the 10% mark is rare
- Use the 10% idea to find TPs for beta plays
Sizing your trades:
- 0-50k: $50-$250
- 50-150k: $250-$500
- 150-500k: $500-$1000
- 500-1m: $1000-$2000
- 1m-3m: $2000-$5000
- 10m+ up to you
0-50k is incredibly risky- .1-.2 gets you 1-3% of the supply
1m+ is a bit "safer" as in- Proof of concept+ Community + Liquidity
- Sizing also comes down to liq/mcap ratio. Coins launch with a 10-20% liq/mcap ratio (100k liq/1m mcap)
- Sizing at 20-50k: Clip in, dont 1 buy it. Attention on wallet + people will use you for exit liq
- Use large sells to enter / Large buys to exit
