Anatomy of a Signal

Let's break down each section:

Header Information

πŸ’Ž ML Confidence Tier (Premium Only)

What it is: Our AI's confidence that this token will hit 2x

Possible values:

  • πŸ’Ž Diamond (0.85+): 90.8% success rate
  • πŸ₯‡ Gold (0.60-0.84): 80.2% success rate
  • βœ… Verified (0.50-0.59): 68.6% success rate
  • (No label): Below threshold (30.6% baseline)

How to use: Prioritize Diamond and Gold picks. They have the highest probability of success.

πŸ’° Market Cap

What it is: The entry point market capitalization

Why it matters:

  • Lower MC ($5K-$50K): More room to grow, higher risk
  • Mid MC ($50K-$500K): Balanced risk/reward
  • Higher MC ($500K+): More established, lower potential

How to use: For 10x+ potential, focus on tokens under $100K MC. For safer bets, look at $200K+ MC.

πŸ’§ Liquidity

What it is: Amount of SOL/tokens in the liquidity pool

Lock status:

  • "100% locked": LP tokens are locked (can't rug via LP withdrawal)
  • "X% locked": Partial lock (some risk remains)
  • "Not locked": Creator can remove liquidity anytime (high risk)

How to use: Look for at least $5K liquidity with 100% lock. Higher liquidity = easier to buy/sell without slippage.

πŸ” Authorities

What it is: Contract permissions that control minting and freezing

Status indicators:

  • "Both disabled" βœ…: Best case β€” no one can mint more tokens or freeze accounts
  • "Mint disabled" ⚠️: Good β€” supply is fixed, but freeze risk remains
  • "Both enabled" ❌: High risk β€” creator has full control

How to use: Always prefer "Both disabled". If authorities are enabled, expect higher rug risk.

Risk Assessment

🚨 Rug Risk Score

What it is: Composite risk score (0-100) based on multiple factors

🟒 LOW (0-30)

Safest picks

🟑 MEDIUM (31-60)

Some concerns

πŸ”΄ HIGH (61-100)

Avoid if possible

Factors considered:

  • Bundled wallet percentage (>40% = red flag)
  • Top 10 holder concentration (>30% = risk)
  • Creator's rug history (previous rugs increase score)
  • Authority status (enabled = higher risk)
  • Liquidity lock status (unlocked = higher risk)

How to use: Aim for LOW risk. MEDIUM is acceptable if other signals are strong (Diamond tier, good creator). Avoid HIGH unless you're very aggressive.

Why Risk Explanation Matters: When you see "Reason: Creator has 5/8 rugs (63%)", that's actionable intel. It tells you WHY the risk is high, not just that it is.

Smart Wallet Alerts (Premium Only)

πŸ‹ Smart Wallet Alert

What it is: Notification when elite wallets enter positions early

Why it matters: These wallets have proven track records of picking winners early.

Tier levels:

  • Elite: 85%+ win rate, 15x+ avg peak
  • Legendary: 75%+ win rate, 10x+ avg peak
  • Power: 65%+ win rate, 8x+ avg peak
  • Smart: 55%+ win rate, 5x+ avg peak

Example:

πŸ‹ Smart Wallet Alert: Elite tier detected
Win Rate: 88% | Avg Peak: 15.2x

How to use: Smart wallet alerts are extremely valuable. When combined with a Diamond label, it's one of the strongest possible signals.

Creator History

πŸ‘€ Creator Track Record

What it is: Historical success/rug rate of the token creator

Metrics shown:

  • Success count: How many tokens hit 2x+
  • Total launches: How many tokens they've created
  • Success rate: Percentage that succeeded
  • Best launch: Their highest peak token

Example:

πŸ‘€ Creator: 12/15 successful (80%)
Best Launch: $PREV (45x)

How to interpret:

  • 80%+ success rate: Elite creator, very trustworthy
  • 50-80% success rate: Good creator, above average
  • Below 50%: Risky creator or new deployer
  • "New deployer": First tracked token, no history

How to use: Strongly prefer creators with 70%+ success rates. Be cautious with new deployers (but they can still win β€” many diamonds come from new creators).

Pro Tip: Click the "πŸ‘€ Creator" button to see their full launch history, including past rugs and famous coins. This context is invaluable.

Holder Analysis (Premium Only)

πŸ‹ Top 10 Holders (Excluding LPs)

What it is: List of the largest holders and their percentage of supply

Example:

πŸ‹ Top 10 Holders (excl. LPs):
1. E6Ac...esnp β€” 3.75%
2. BoBo...8teE β€” 3.38%
3. 94Dt...CkJR β€” 2.25%
4. 9Xya...Df9C β€” 2.08%
5. d12X...39Kg β€” 2.08%
Total: 20.6% supply

How to interpret:

  • Under 20% total: Well distributed (good)
  • 20-30% total: Moderate concentration (acceptable)
  • Over 30% total: Heavy concentration (risk)

Why it matters: If top holders own too much, they can dump and crash the price. Well-distributed tokens are safer.

How to use: Click addresses to view on Solscan. Check if they're known whales or bots. Bundled wallets are automatically excluded from this count.
