๐ŸŽฏ Pump Detector โ€” Signal Guide

How to read alerts, decode fields and make trading decisions.

Alert anatomy

Every MidasFlow pump alert packs six information layers: detection trigger, ML scores, volume flow, accumulation, forecast and risk. This page decodes a real alert line by line.

ML models

Four ML models score every signal simultaneously โ€” Scalp, Pump, Trade and Risk. Agreement between them matters more than any single number: three or more aligned models is a quality setup.

Signal history

The history line shows how the same symbol behaved after previous signals โ€” repeat rate, average move and time to peak. It turns a single alert into a track record.

Volume & Flow

The volume line compares current buying pressure against the symbol's own baseline: multiplier, buy/sell ratio and net flow. A pump without volume confirmation is a trap.

GP Verdicts

GP verdicts come from genetic-programming formulas evolved on millions of historical candles. They act as an independent second opinion next to the ML scores.

Accumulation

Accumulation flags quiet pre-pump buying: rising OBV, shrinking sell walls and stealth volume before any visible price move. It is the earliest structural tell.

Forecast model

The forecast line projects expected move size and probability bands from comparable historical pumps. It sets realistic targets instead of hype numbers.

Movement phases

Every pump moves through phases โ€” accumulation, ignition, FOMO, exhaustion. The phase decides whether an entry is early, optimal or already late; IGNITION with rising price is the entry window.

Cross-Exchange

MidasFlow watches 9+ exchanges in parallel and times how coordinated buying spreads between them โ€” pumps often appear on smaller venues up to 30 seconds before Binance.

Early Detection

EARLY DETECTION fires when coordinated buying appears across venues before the Binance move. Roughly 60-70% develop into a real pump โ€” the rest fade, which is why phase and ML confirmation matter.

Decision making

A signal is not an order. The decision framework chains phase, ML consensus, risk line and tier rules into a clear go / reduce / skip checklist.

Risk management

Risk rules cap the damage when a signal fails: position sizing by liquidity tier, stop placement, and the combos you should never trade. Survival first, profits second.

Signal patterns

Recurring alert patterns โ€” continuation chains, fade setups, cross-confirmed igniters โ€” repeat across symbols. Recognizing them speeds up every decision.

14 FAQ

The system sees an impulse attempt, but the price can't break through. This is normal, but entry is not recommended โ€” wait for phase = IGNITION with rising price.

The symbol is not traded on Bybit (only on Binance or spot only). You can't open a futures position via the system โ€” monitoring only.

Cooldown is adaptive: for repeated signals on one symbol within a single move, it progressively grows. If price moved >0.5% in a new direction โ€” counter resets. This is designed to not miss continuations while avoiding spam.

Scalp and Pump can often diverge by 10โ€“15% โ€” that's normal, they look at different timeframes. The important thing is to avoid combos like Scalp 85% + Pump 40% + Trade 30% โ€” that means the model sees noise, not a pattern.

Yes, but with limits: 50% size, tight SL (โˆ’0.8%), only with CONFIRMED cross + ORGANIC propagation. On micro without cross confirmation โ€” large slippage and false signals.

Yes. Roughly 30โ€“40% of early warnings don't develop into a full pump on Binance โ€” these are fade signals. That's why EARLY DETECTION acts as a trigger, but the entry decision must account for Phase + ML + Risk lines.
