📈 Step 2: Understand Basic Chart Patterns

You don’t need to be a pro trader, but here are a few degen-friendly signs:

🚀 Bullish Signs:

• Gradual uptrend with consistent volume

• Pullbacks with strong recovery

• Lots of buys, small sells

💀 Bearish Signs:

• Huge spike followed by sharp dump

• Dev wallet selling

• Decreasing volume, chart goes flat

📉 Dead Chart:

• No volume

• Liquidity pulled

• No more memes on Twitter

💸 Step 3: When Should You Take Profit?

Here’s a simple strategy used by many memecoin traders:

🪙 Rule of 2x:

• If your token 2x’s — take out your original investment

• Let the rest ride "for free"

💰 Scaling Out:

• Sell 10–20% at each milestone (2x, 3x, 5x, etc.)

• Use limits or manual sells to avoid panic

🧠 Psychological Tips:

• You will never sell the top, and that’s fine

• Always sell into strength (green candles, not red ones)

• Track your wins/losses. Learn from them.

🤯 Step 4: Avoid FOMO & Get Unbiased

Memecoins move fast. Don’t get emotionally attached.

• If you’re up big — take something off the table

• If you missed a play — move on

• Don’t chase green candles unless you have an entry plan

Pro tip: Your goal is to survive the market, not win every trade.
