A ten-minute check

Every Price Surges alert gets the same checks at Iron Apes.

  1. Use an amount you can lose completely without stress.
  2. Check holder concentration after excluding pool and burn wallets.
  3. Search the contract in the Empire Telegram network to see other alerts on it.
  4. Work from the contract address; tickers repeat across chains and copies.
  5. Look for bundled launch buys: several wallets buying in the same block.

Why Price Surges

A Price Surges alert means a token's price jumped against its recent range.

Price and volume spikes are common on Solana. Most fade within hours. Iron Apes keeps the Price Surges feed open to measure how many do not.

For Iron Apes, a fast chart can come from real demand or from a few wallets trading with themselves. Iron Apes uses Price Surges to find the move and the checks below to explain it.

First look: Check whether the move started before or after the first public call. Look at how many distinct buyers joined during the move, not only the volume total.

Sniper
An address that buys at the first possible moment after launch.
Contract address
The address that identifies exactly one token.
Liquidity
Pool depth: the larger it is, the less a single trade moves the price.
Multiple
Current or peak market cap divided by the market cap at the first alert.

The desk's screen

Iron Apes narrows the Price Surges lane on Solana with a simple, public screen:

  • market cap at least $20.0K
  • at least 100 holders
  • top-10 wallets holding at most 40 %

In the 34 most recent lane alerts at build time (about 3 hours), 27 passed this screen. The passing group sat at a median $250.8K cap with $55.4K in the pool and roughly 695 holders. Thin pools were common: 7 of 34 had less than 10 % of their cap in liquidity. The median top-10 holder share across the lane was 23 %.
