Flipping Smart: How to Read Candles, Pumps, and Dips Like a Trader
Flipping newly listed tokens isn’t just about catching hype ,it’s about reading behavior. And to flip with confidence, you need to understand one powerful tool: the candlestick chart.
A candlestick shows how price moves in a specific time frame. It tells you four things:
1. Where the price opened
2. Where it closed
3. The highest point it reached
4.The lowest point it dropped to
A green candle means price closed higher than it opened. A red one means it closed lower. Long wicks (lines above or below the body) can mean strong rejection — a sign the price tried to go higher (or lower) but failed.
So how do flips come in?
After a listing, you’ll often see a pump fast upward movement as people rush in. But smart traders wait. Why? Because what goes up fast usually dips just as hard.
This is where patterns help. You don’t need to memorize every candle name just focus on momentum:
A big green candle followed by a tiny red one? Price may slow down.
A long red candle hitting a previous low? That might be a support area.
Two or three candles showing indecision (small bodies, long wicks)? A breakout or reversal might be coming.
The key? Don’t just guess — react to what the chart shows you.
And always remember: flipping isn't gambling. It's timing, patience, and quick decision-making. Don’t flip out of FOMO. Flip because the signs say go.
If you're new, spend time watching charts before risking money. Practice spotting fake pumps and real breakouts. In this game, knowledge is your edge not luck.
