Higher lows + slight volume increase can look like early accumulation, but in low caps it is not that simple.

The same structure can also be: • dead cat bounce
• liquidity grab before another drop
• short-term speculative spike

Key is separating real rotation from noise.

What actually matters: • Clear break and hold above resistance
• Sustained buying across multiple candles, not one spike
• $BTC and $ETH stability to support alt rotations

Red flags: • Higher lows with fading volume
• Wick above resistance then rejection
• Overall market turning risk-off

Real talk: most “early breakout” looking setups in low caps do not follow through.

Smarter approach: Wait for confirmation → enter on retest → always define risk.

Not financial advice.
