# Reading a signal
> Every number and chip on a card, and why each one is hard to fake.
Every signal card carries the full case for the token. This page walks it top to bottom.
## The header numbers
| Element | Meaning |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **V** | 24h volume |
| **MC** | Live market cap, ticking in place |
| **Age** | Time since the token was created |
| **Holders** | Total holder count |
| **Crown %** | Developer holding |
| **+% and ATH** | 24h price change, and the highest market cap the token has reached |
| **TX** | 24h transaction count, with the green and red bar showing buy versus sell split |
## First alert
The blue line (**"2d ago @ \$9.2K"** on the card above) is the receipt: when the signal fired and
the market cap it fired at. It is frozen at signal time and never repainted, so what a call is
judged by later is exactly what you saw. The live multiple next to it is measured from that
entry.
## The chip row
Each chip is a check the token passed or failed. Tap any chip for the full detail.
### Safety
The shield runs the structural checks: mint and freeze authority, liquidity state, and the rug
checklist, summarized as a holders audit score out of 100. Green means the obvious rug levers
are not there. It is a floor, not a promise.
### Holders
The cohort chip breaks down who actually holds the token: top 10 holders (the LP pool can be
included there, so it counts less), snipers, insiders, bundlers, and the dev. Concentrated or
insider-heavy books fail quietly here long before they fail loudly on the chart.
### Top traders
Reads **"Top traders still in: N of M"**. Of the wallets that traded this token best, how many
still hold? Winners exiting while the chart still looks fine is one of the earliest honest
warnings you can get.
### Dex paid
Whether the team paid for its DEX listing profile, and whether it is running paid boosts. Paying
is a small commitment signal; it separates tokens with an operator behind them from pure
spray-and-pray deploys.
### F: all-time fees
Total fees ever paid transacting the token, in SOL. This is the anti-wash number. Real activity
burns real fees, so a token printing large volume on top of tiny lifetime fees is manufactured
activity. Volume is cheap to fake. Fees are not.
### NET: net buy flow
Buys minus sells over 24h, in SOL. Direction of the real flow: positive means money is entering
the token, negative means volume is distribution dressed up as action.
## Quick buy
The pink pill fills at your per-lane amount with your active [preset](/trading/presets). One
tap, wallet signature, submitted.
No single chip is the verdict. The card is designed to be read in one glance as a whole: real
participation, clean structure, honest flow. When all of it agrees, that is a signal.
