$PORTAL +78% in a day. Currently ~$0.019, 1B max supply = sub-$20M FDV.
Don't fade it just because "it pumped already."
Low FDV + high control + front-runners adding with profit + OI rising + shorts stacked above = setup for leg 2.
Why FDV matters:
A $20M coin can 2x to $40M. A $1B coin needs 10x the liquidity to do the same move.
MM playbook isn't "accumulate forever at the bottom." It's:
Control supply → pump → use unrealized P&L to add more → tighten control → push phase 2.
That's why alts look random but aren't.
You're not looking for coins that already ran. You're looking for:
- Still small FDV
- Supply still concentrated
- MM hasn't distributed after leg 1
That first +50% or +80% candle? Often just the warmup.
But if control is weak, that candle can also be the exit liquidity. Watch the tape.
