When Pump

Whipsaw trading refers to rapid price movements in the crypto market, causing traders to be caught off-guard by sudden reversals and volatility.

“When Pump” refers to a situation where the price of a cryptocurrency experiences a rapid increase due to heightened buying activity. This sudden surge is often the result of coordinated efforts by a group of investors, sometimes termed a “pump group,” who spread positive news or hype around a specific token.These groups typically use social media platforms and messaging apps to organize and encourage others to buy the asset, driving demand and, consequently, the price upward. This can create a short-lived spike, with prices sometimes rapidly increasing by a significant percentage in a very short time.However, such events can be risky. After the initial surge, many participants sell their holdings to realize profits, leading to a sharp price drop, known as a “dump.” This tactic can lead to substantial losses for those who buy in during the pump phase without understanding the potential for volatility. Always approach such situations with caution and conduct thorough research before investing.
