1. Support / Base
01Definition
A support area or base is a price region where selling repeatedly meets enough buying to prevent further decline.
02Why it matters
A stable base can become the foundation for the next move.
03What to check
- Number of successful retests
- Volume around the base
- Holder behavior
- Whether large sellers are being absorbed
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
Several retests meet buying within the observed period.
Dangerous
A single bounce is drawn as support despite repeated lower lows.
05Beginner mistake
Drawing support from a single bounce.
06Takeaway
A base becomes meaningful through repeated defense.
Find a sampled token and review its observed market history. Use Inspect's historical view or an external chart to investigate retests.
2. Resistance / Ceiling
01Definition
Resistance is an area where selling repeatedly overwhelms buying.
02Why it matters
Large holders may use these areas to exit.
03What to check
- Repeated rejection levels
- Selling volume
- Wallet distribution near the level
- Whether each rejection becomes weaker
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
Repeated tests and surrounding flow are compared over time.
Dangerous
Large selling repeatedly rejects the area while buyers weaken.
05Beginner mistake
Assuming price must break resistance because it reached it several times.
06Takeaway
A ceiling remains a ceiling until demand proves otherwise.
Review observed price behavior and activity, then investigate repeated rejection areas in a detailed chart.
3. Breakout
01Definition
A breakout occurs when price moves beyond an established resistance area and sustains the move.
02Why it matters
A successful breakout can indicate a change in supply-demand balance.
03What to check
- Volume
- Follow-through
- Retest behavior
- New buyers
- Whether major holders are selling into it
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
The move holds above the prior area and survives a retest.
Dangerous
A brief wick or one large buy supplies the entire breakout thesis.
05Beginner mistake
Buying the first candle above resistance.
06Takeaway
A breakout needs acceptance, not just a wick above resistance.
Compare sampled price behavior, activity, and liquidity. A ranking is a research lead, not breakout confirmation.
4. Fake Breakout
01Definition
A fake breakout is a move above resistance that quickly fails.
02Why it matters
It often traps late buyers and provides liquidity for sellers.
03What to check
- Lack of follow-through
- Immediate heavy selling
- Weak holder growth
- Large wallets reducing positions
- Price falling back below the old ceiling
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
Reassess when price loses the old ceiling; wait for new evidence.
Dangerous
Price falls back into the old range as selling increases.
05Beginner mistake
Assuming every breakout candle starts a new trend.
06Takeaway
Failure to hold the breakout matters more than briefly crossing the level.
Use historical candles where available to inspect range acceptance; buy/sell figures remain a separate bounded swap sample.
5. Repricing
01Definition
Repricing happens when the market establishes a materially different valuation range.
02Why it matters
After a major move, the token may stop trading around its old base and begin forming a new one.
03What to check
- New support range
- Holder turnover
- Liquidity growth
- Whether old sellers have cleared
- Whether demand persists without artificial support
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
A new valuation range persists with continuing activity and liquidity.
Dangerous
A short pump is labelled a new base before the market accepts it.
05Beginner mistake
Assuming every pump is a repricing.
06Takeaway
Repricing requires the market to accept the new valuation.
Compare observed persistence and current liquidity in the Longer-term view. Provider history is sampled and may have gaps.
6. Pullback
01Definition
A pullback is a temporary decline after an upward move.
02Why it matters
Healthy markets rarely move upward in a straight line.
03What to check
- Depth of the decline
- Volume during the decline
- Whether major holders are dumping
- Whether support holds
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
The decline meets buying near a repeatedly observed support area.
Dangerous
Support fails while liquidity and buying activity deteriorate.
05Beginner mistake
Treating every red move as the end of the trend.
06Takeaway
A pullback tests whether buyers still exist below the highs.
Compare historical candle ranges and nearby observed flow. Candle volume has no directional buy/sell split.
7. Panic Dump
01Definition
A panic dump occurs when selling overwhelms available liquidity very quickly.
02Why it matters
Thin meme markets can collapse far faster than traders expect.
03What to check
- Who started selling
- Whether large wallets joined
- Liquidity depth
- Whether buyers continue absorbing
- Whether the token recovers after the first wave
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
Reassess available liquidity and subsequent flow before drawing conclusions.
Dangerous
Selling overwhelms depth and executable quotes deteriorate rapidly.
05Beginner mistake
Assuming a low market cap automatically means price cannot fall much further.
06Takeaway
When liquidity disappears, price can gap downward rapidly.
Review sell sizes and surrounding swaps for the selected listing and window. The returned sample may omit part of the event.
8. Entry Liquidity
01Definition
Entry liquidity is the available sell supply that allows you to build a position without pushing price excessively.
02Why it matters
Entering too aggressively can create your own bad average price.
03What to check
- Pool depth
- Available sellers
- Price impact
- Position size
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
The planned order fits the current quote and pool depth.
Dangerous
Entering in one order materially raises your own average price.
05Beginner mistake
Using the displayed price as the average execution price for your whole order.
06Takeaway
A good thesis can still have a bad entry.
Review reported liquidity as context, then obtain a current executable quote externally for the intended order.
9. Exit Liquidity
01Definition
Exit liquidity is the future buying demand available when you want to sell.
02Why it matters
Paper profit is only useful if enough buyers exist to take the other side.
03What to check
- Current liquidity
- Trading activity
- Position size
- Large-holder exits
- Whether attention is growing or fading
04Healthy / Dangerous
Healthy
Review current exit quotes, depth, and ongoing demand.
Dangerous
Paper profit assumes future buyers will absorb a large position.
05Beginner mistake
Planning upside without planning the exit.
06Takeaway
Your exit requires someone else to buy.
Review observed buying and selling as current context. Past swaps do not guarantee demand when you exit.
Level 5 Checklist
Ask:
- Where is the real base?
- Where does supply repeatedly appear?
- Is a breakout being accepted?
- Is the token repricing or only pumping?
- Are pullbacks being absorbed?
- Could your position exit without overwhelming liquidity?
