A few signals before the meme pumps

If the leader doesn’t break out with volume, I don’t listen to any of the “small coins” stories.

Use price change percentage and trading volume for the sentiment—don’t use how hyped it is in groups.

BONK 0.00000366 (+4.87%), WIF 0.2414 (+4.01%), SHIB 0.00000584 (+2.46%), DOGE 0.0957 (+2.41%)

Comparison: BTC 84,391 (24h +1.33%).

BONK’s 24h +4.87% is clearly stronger than BTC’s +1.33%—there’s independent buying. But PEPE is only +1.42%; the sector isn’t resonating. We only trade the leader, not wishful thinking about “catching up” later.

If the spread between the leader and the weakest one narrows to within 2 percentage points, the independent buying disappears—clear the position.

When the pullback comes, will you set your order, or wait for the candle to close?
