❓ FAQ

🚀 Getting Started

What does this bot do?
It analyzes crypto tokens across chains using AI, sentiment, liquidity metrics, and whale movement.

How do I use the bot?
Send a token address or use the /analyze command to get insights.

Which chains are supported?
Solana, Ethereum, Base, Sui, BNB, Cronos, Blast, Fantom, Polygon, Optimism, Sei, TON.

What’s the minimum token age for accurate analysis?
Tokens older than 1 hour provide more reliable insights (~80–90% accuracy).

Can I analyze brand new tokens?
Yes, but results will be based on early signals and flagged accordingly.

Does the bot auto-detect the chain?
Yes, for supported chains, it can infer the correct network.

Can I track tokens automatically?
Yes. Use the “Track Token” button or related commands (if enabled).

Does the bot support private tokens?
Only if metadata and liquidity exist via Tradex or public DEX APIs.

Do I need to hold the token?
No. Analysis is public and works for any token address.

How often can I analyze?
Unlimited use, but cooldowns may apply to prevent abuse.

🔐 Security & Risk

Does the bot detect honeypots?
Yes. It checks sell behavior, locked LPs, and burn addresses for risks.

Can it detect rugs?
It flags conditions like liquidity drains, centralized holders, and custodian exits.

Is this a safety audit?
No. It’s a risk signal and behavioral audit, not a formal smart contract audit.

Can I trust the analysis?
Use it as a tool — not a guarantee. It’s probabilistic, not deterministic.

How are wallet types detected?
By using on-chain labels, Tradex lockers, and custom heuristics.

What is considered risky behavior?
Rapid liquidity removal, dominant holders, or absence of sells (honeypot).

What’s the top holder threshold?
20%+ ownership in LP triggers a warning for centralization.

How are early drains flagged?
If multiple criteria match: LP drain, low price move, volume spikes, etc.

Is sentiment manipulated?
We score cross-sourced sentiment, and spammy or bot-like behavior is filtered.

Can I verify findings?
Yes. All findings are sourced from public data via APIs like Tradex, DexScreener, and others.

📊 Recommendations & Confidence

How is the final recommendation made?
It's based on a weighted score of sentiment, liquidity, whale movements, and technical indicators.

What does “Buy” or “Sell” mean?
It means the indicators favor that direction — not financial advice, just a probabilistic forecast.

What if the confidence score is low?
A low score means conflicting signals or low data quality — act with extra caution.

Does the bot detect breakouts?
Yes. It uses volume, wicks, VWAP slope, and price acceleration to detect early breakouts.

How is whale sentiment used?
Whale/dolphin activity over 30–60 minutes is scored and influences recommendation strength.

Are early tokens analyzed differently?
Yes. The bot applies special early token scoring when < 1hr or < 30 candles of data are available.

Does every analysis use the same algorithm?
No. It adapts based on token age, volatility, and data availability per chain.

Why are some tokens marked 'Unknown'?
Lack of metadata or price info from APIs like Tradex or DexScreener causes fallback conditions.

How should I use these insights?
Use the analysis to support your own strategy — not to replace personal judgment.

Is it possible for scores to change?
Yes. Token conditions change rapidly. Re-run analysis for updated scoring.

💧 Liquidity & Volume

How is liquidity measured?
The bot checks LP reserve value and 24h volume to determine liquidity health.

What’s a liquidity drain?
It occurs when liquidity drops by 30%+ and price moves <10% — often a bad signal.

What does volume/liquidity ratio mean?
It's the ratio of 24h trading volume to current LP — used to flag volatility risks.

What is a pump spike?
A sudden surge in price over the last 5 candles, often >100% rise, used as a breakout indicator.

What causes an early volume spike warning?
If 10-minute volume exceeds 20% of daily volume, it triggers a caution flag.

Why is low liquidity risky?
Small LP sizes are prone to manipulation, slippage, and extreme price swings.

Can burned LP be detected?
Yes. LP tokens sent to burn addresses are tracked and shown with 🔥 status if applicable.

What is the 'top holder %'?
The top LP holder’s share, used to identify centralization risk. >20% = high risk.

How is liquidity lock determined?
LP locks are detected using Tradex lock status and fallback checks for custodians or lockers.

Are custodian wallets flagged?
Yes. Known lockers and vesting addresses are identified and reflected in the lock message.

🧠 Technical & AI Analysis

What technical indicators are used?
RSI, MACD, VWAP, EMA, SAR, Bollinger Bands, OBV, ATR, Stochastic RSI, and more.

What does the Signal Score mean?
A sum of bullish/bearish indicators weighted to compute overall bias.

Can I view indicator categories?
Yes. They're grouped under Momentum, Trend, Volatility, and Volume Analysis sections.

What if indicators disagree?
The scoring engine balances them. Conflicting indicators usually result in Hold signals.

What is the Advisor ML model?
A trained ensemble model that forecasts expected return and confidence for each token.

Is ML prediction shown?
Yes. If enabled, it shows predicted % move (positive or negative) and model confidence.

Does the ML engine improve?
Yes. It learns over time as more analysis records are logged and scored.

Is wash trading detected?
Yes. Suspicious repetitive patterns with same wallets are flagged.

Can AI make mistakes?
Yes. Like all models, it can misinterpret abnormal or manipulated data.

Where is historical data stored?
All analysis snapshots are stored in your bot backend for transparency and audits.

🧾 Audit & History

Can I view past analysis?
Yes. Use the /summary or /history commands for recent token analysis logs.

Can I fetch historical predictions?
Yes. Each audit entry includes timestamp, ML prediction, confidence, and sentiment.

Can I export audit logs?
Yes. Admins can export CSV or JSON summaries of past bot activity.

What is shown in audit entries?
Timestamp, indicators, advisor score, sentiment label, ML forecast, and risk flags.

How often is audit stored?
Every time a token is analyzed, a snapshot is stored unless filtered by bot limits.

Can I share analysis?
Yes. Each token result can be shared by forwarding the message or copying the summary.

Are audit records private?
Yes. Only the user or admin can fetch their personal query logs unless public API is used.

Do you log IPs?
No. The bot respects privacy — only user ID, token address, and timestamps are stored.

How long are logs retained?
Depends on your deployment policy — usually 30–90 days rolling.

Can I purge my data?
Yes. Use the /delete or /clear commands if enabled by the admin.

⚠️ Warnings & Disclaimers

Is this financial advice?
Absolutely not. This tool is informational only. Always do your own research (DYOR).

Can tokens change behavior suddenly?
Yes. Liquidity, sentiment, or whales can shift rapidly. Re-analyze often.

Is any token guaranteed safe?
No. Even locked tokens or old projects can rug. Nothing is 100% safe.

What are your sources?
Tradex, DexScreener, Pump.fun, CoinGecko, Birdeye, and internal scoring models.

How should I act on analysis?
Use it to confirm or challenge your own view. It’s a decision aid — not a directive.

Can I lose money trading tokens flagged as 'Buy'?
Yes. Crypto is volatile. Use stop-losses and manage risk wisely.

What’s the best token type to analyze?
Tokens with real liquidity, >1 hour age, and regular volume are ideal candidates.

Can I contribute or improve the bot?
Yes. Reach out via Telegram or GitHub if you’re a dev or analyst interested in contributing.

Where can I get support?
Use the /support command to send a message to admins directly.
