Crime Playbook 101 that happened with $LAB
LAB just ran one of the cleanest trap cycles you’ll ever see.
+500% in 2 days → $260M added
$26.6M shorts wiped
Then…
-84% in 8 hours → $250M gone
$17M longs wiped
Same chart. Same players. Both sides rekt.
What actually happened?
Low float + controlled supply = easy playground.
Flow looked something like this:
➠ Kickstart a violent pump
➠ Shorts pile in → funding flips negative
➠ Squeeze them hard → forced buys = more upside
➠ New shorts enter thinking “this is the top”
➠ Repeat until everyone’s leaning one way
Then flip the script:
➠ Start unloading into strength
➠ Open shorts on the way down
➠ Nuke price fast → longs get liquidated
➠ Profit on both sides
Retail gets hit twice:
Short → liquidated
Long → liquidated
Game over. If supply is concentrated, price is just a tool.
