# 7. Hold Times & Trade Size Analysis

## ⏱️ Hold Time:

* Avoid extremely short holds (under 5 mins)
* Fast flipping often reduces profit potential
* Look for strategic holding periods
* Slower-paced trades show better consistency

## 💰 Trade Size:

* Watch for oversized trades vs liquidity
* Large buys can spike token prices
* Poor entry/exit prices affect copying success
* Prefer balanced trade size relative to mcap

## ✅Optimal Trading Patterns:

* Medium hold times (15+ minutes)
* Reasonable position sizes
* Good liquidity matches
* Sustainable trading strategy
