scripts/bankr.sh "What's the liquidity for TOKEN on Base?"

# Small entry
scripts/bankr.sh "Buy $20 of TOKEN on Base"

Rules:

• Max $20 per snipe
• Sell 50% at 2x, rest at 5x or stop loss
• Max 3 snipes per day

Strategy 2: Momentum Trading (MEDIUM RISK)

Trade established tokens showing strength.

Entry signals:

• Price > 20-period MA
• Volume increasing
• Higher lows forming

# Check momentum
scripts/bankr.sh "Do technical analysis on TOKEN"

# Enter with limit order
scripts/bankr.sh "Buy $30 of TOKEN if price drops to X"

Strategy 3: DCA Blue Chips (LOW RISK)

Steady accumulation of proven tokens.

# Weekly DCA
