The first hour after a new coin goes live is the most perilous: some coins surge straight to nearly $200 at the open, then fall by 97.8% within an hour. People who chased the price are basically wiped out. In the first hour, the price is driven almost entirely by sentiment and low liquidity matching—it can’t establish a true price. A violent pump with no turnover to support it is simply a distribution window.

At the moment, capital is more willing to go into coins that have fundamentals. NEAR, for example: current price 2.42, up 5.6% over 24h, with volume and price coordinating steadily upward—completely different from that kind of open-to-rush blowout. Don’t chase new coins in the first hour; wait for the first hourly candle to close and for the trading volume to stabilize, then reassess the pullback levels. If you really want to play it, test with a small position; set your stop-loss within 15% below your entry price.
