Not gonna lie this was probably 90% luck and 10% timing.
I wasnt even actively hunting for a memecoin play. I was just scrolling through fomo last night, half distracted, when I noticed one of the traders I follow jump into $PENGUIN. No long thread, no fancy thesis, no screenshots, just a clean entry from a wallet that’s usually early on these things.
I almost ignored it. Ended up copying the trade with an amount I was fully prepared to lose mainly out of curiosity more than confidence. Didnt set alerts, didn’t stare at the chart, didn’t try to scalp it. Just let it sit and went to sleep.
Woke up the next morning and it had moved way more than I expected. I closed the position instead of getting greedy and walked away with around $1450 in profit.
I am not pretending this is some repeatable strategy or that I suddenly figured out memecoins. Most of the time copying random trades ends badly. This could have easily gone the other way. But it did make me think that watching what proven wallets are actually buying might be more useful than chasing anonymous calls.
