Meme Coins

Always do your own research (DYOR). Not financial advice (NFA)

Strategies are only strategies, every play won't be profitable and there may be extraneous factors that can lead to unexpected outcomes. Learn from them and move on.

Trading memecoins can be your next 100x or your next rug pull. This is a game characterized by high volatility, high risk, and even higher rewards.

Essential tools:

• DEX analyzers

  • DEX Screener and DEX Tools

• Token safety

  • Token Sniffer (Ethereum) and Rug Checker (Solana)

  • Telegram and Discord bots

• Telegram Bots (under Tools tab of each chain)

Micro Caps

• Market Cap: $500 - $10K

• Capital Range: $10 - $500

These coins are most likely to be rugged but have the highest potential to multiply your capital very quickly.

Strategy 1: Finding quality apes

• Find new tokens on DEX analyzer

• Evaluate token safety

  • Telegram and Discord bots (ex: BonkBot alerts and Rick scanner)

  • Characteristics of a good coin:

    • Low distribution among top holders (<25%)

    • Low market cap ($1k - $5k usually)

    • Safe on rug-checking tools (can change as token launches)

      • No mint authority

      • Locked liquidity

      • No freeze authority

      • Contract renounced

• Use Telegram Bot to ape

  • 10% - 20% slippage

  • Set transaction priority to highest or set custom amount to slightly above highest

Strategy 2: Sniping new pools

• Find new pools (ex: BonkBot alerts)

• Evaluate token safety

  • Avoid obvious instant rugs (ex: freeze authority)

  • Good sniping bots should be able to enter and exit before liquidity is removed

• Use Sniping Telegram Bot to ape (ex: Magnum Bot)

  • Set high slippage

  • Set high transaction priority

  • Will take trial and error to get the settings right

Small Caps

• Market Cap: $10K - $100K

• Capital Range: $100 - $1K

Most of these coins have passed rug checks and have the potential to quickly 2 or 3x.

Strategy 1: Ape reversals

• Look for -20% or more in the past 5 minutes

• Examine if makers are still increasing and volume is shifting

• Coin may:

  • Pump 20% and reversal players will take profit and coin goes to 0

  • Pump back to local top and continue to increase

  • Just continue dumping and go to 0

Strategy 2: Ape big momentum coins

• Look for consistent 20% to 40% increases in token price over the past 5 minutes

• Momentum may carry the coin for a few minutes as you ride the pump

• Make sure to take profits as the momentum may shift quickly

Mid Caps

• Market Cap: $100K - $1M

• Capital Range: $1K - $10K

These coins can handle more capital and volume. The coins that reach this range are successful meme coins and can potentially last a few days.

Strategy 1: Ape reversals

• Look for sell-offs in a relatively short time frame (varies case-by-case)

• Examine if makers are still increasing and volume is shifting

• Coin may:

  • Pump 20% and reversal players will take profit and coin goes to 0

  • Pump back to local top and continue to increase

  • Just continue dumping and go to 0

Strategy 2: Long hold

• Research the factors that will allow the coin to continue to grow

  • Community (ex: Telegram, Discord, Twitter)

  • Socials (ex: Twitter)

  • Team (ex: Devs selling off or grinding?)

  • Attention/Narrative (ex: are influencers shilling this coin?)

  • Meme (ex: is this funny/relatable?)

• Aping large capital can lead to wins much bigger than playing microcaps, even with "small" profit margins

• Set a target and stop loss

Large Caps

• Market Cap: $1M - $10M

• Capital Range: $10K+

These coins usually have some project backing to give the coin or narrative some value. The biggest pumps to these coins come from influencer shills on Twitter.

Strategy 1: Ape reversals

• Look for dips (varies case-by-case)

• Examine if makers are still increasing and volume is shifting

• Coin may:

  • Pump a few percentages

  • Just continue dumping and go to 0

Strategy 2: Long hold

• Research the factors that will allow the coin to continue to grow

  • Community (ex: Telegram, Discord, Twitter)

  • Socials (ex: Twitter)

  • Team (ex: Devs selling off or grinding?)

  • Attention/Narrative (ex: are influencers shilling this coin?)

  • Meme (ex: is this funny/relatable?)

• Aping large capital can lead to wins much bigger than playing microcaps, even with "small" profit margins

• Set a target and stop loss

Blue Chips

• Market Cap: $10M+

• Capital Range: $10K+

This is where you see $DOGE, $BONK, $WIF, and $SHIB. These coins have most likely been shilled and will move very slowly compared to smaller meme coins, making them great for apes in the thousands. These coins are usually the safest if all else fails.

Strategy 1: Accumulate during dips

• Dips will usually last a while and can be grounds for accumulation

• Research and/or have conviction that the coin may pump again

Strategy 2: Long hold

• Research the factors that will allow the coin to continue to grow

  • Community (ex: Telegram, Discord, Twitter)

  • Socials (ex: Twitter)

  • Team (ex: Devs selling off or grinding?)

  • Attention/Narrative (ex: are influencers shilling this coin?)

  • Meme (ex: is this funny/relatable?)

• Aping large capital can lead to wins much bigger than playing microcaps, even with "small" profit margins.

• Set a target and stop loss
