Ignas: Trading Meme Coins Requires Syncing with Market Rhythm; Entry Rationale Should Not Just Be "Price Is Going Up"
Odaily News: DeFi researcher Ignas stated on X that successful crypto traders need to stay "in sync" with market rhythm, the key being to patiently wait for trading opportunities they truly understand rather than chasing pumps and panic-selling dips. He pointed out that if you chase a token after it has already risen and then panic-sell during a pullback, it not only causes financial losses but also easily leads to rushing to recoup losses by piling into the next hot narrative when it pumps, forming a vicious cycle.
Ignas believes that before trading, one must first understand the market's current "playbook." For example, under the previous points model, projects subsidized data before TGE, and users sold after receiving airdrops; whereas currently, Meme coins and tokenized assets are forming a new trading logic. He believes that Meme coins may become a way to drive on-chain TVL growth for tokenized stocks. Rather than searching for Meme coins where it's difficult to determine whether insiders hold concentrated positions, it's better to focus on tokens that capture fees from trading activity, while assessing how much of that revenue actually flows to token holders and the corresponding valuation levels.
Ignas also stated that every trade should have a clear rationale beyond "the price is going up" or "it has already dropped a lot." If a position is so large that every decline makes you question your original thesis, it's often difficult to hold long enough for the thesis to play out. Therefore, one should appropriately reduce position size and remain patient.
