Interpreting Reports
How to read and act on DeepDive analysis reports.
Interpreting DeepDive Reports
A DeepDive report contains a lot of information. Here's how to extract actionable insights.
Reading the Summary First
Every report starts with a summary. This gives you:
- Quick verdict — Bullish, bearish, or neutral outlook
- Key strengths — What's working for this project
- Key concerns — What could go wrong
- Action points — Suggested next steps
If you're short on time, the summary often tells you what you need to know.
Evaluating Market Data
Market Cap Categories
| Market Cap | Category | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| Over $10B | Large Cap | Established, lower risk, lower upside |
| $1B-$10B | Mid Cap | Growing, moderate risk/reward |
| $100M-$1B | Small Cap | Higher risk, higher potential |
| Under $100M | Micro Cap | Very high risk, speculative |
Volume Analysis
- Volume/Market Cap above 10% — High activity, very liquid
- Volume/Market Cap 1-10% — Normal trading activity
- Volume/Market Cap below 1% — Low activity, be careful with large positions
Price Context
- Compare current price to all-time high
- Check how far from recent highs/lows
- Look at price change over multiple timeframes
Understanding On-Chain Data
Holder Distribution
| Top 10 Holders | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| Under 20% | Highly distributed, lower dump risk |
| 20-50% | Moderately concentrated |
| Over 50% | Highly concentrated, whale risk |
Note: Always exclude exchange wallets and known burn addresses from this analysis.
Transaction Trends
- Rising transactions — Growing usage and interest
- Falling transactions — Declining activity
- Spiky transactions — Often speculation-driven
Smart Money Signals
When sophisticated wallets accumulate or distribute:
- Accumulating = Potential bullish signal
- Distributing = Potential bearish signal
Remember: Smart money isn't always right.
Reading Technical Levels
Support Levels
Support is where buyers historically step in:
- Strong support — Multiple bounces at this level
- Weak support — Only tested once or twice
- Breaking support — Bearish signal
Resistance Levels
Resistance is where sellers historically appear:
- Strong resistance — Multiple rejections
- Weak resistance — Tested briefly
- Breaking resistance — Bullish signal
What to Do With Levels
- Consider buying near support
- Consider taking profits near resistance
- Use levels to set stop losses
- Don't treat levels as guarantees
Weighing Risk Factors
DeepDive highlights risks. Here's how to evaluate them:
High Severity Risks
- Very concentrated holdings
- Anonymous team with large allocation
- No audit on smart contracts
- Declining user metrics
Medium Severity Risks
- High correlation to Bitcoin
- Limited trading venues
- Short track record
- Competitive market
Lower Severity Risks
- Price volatility (expected in crypto)
- Regulatory uncertainty (affects all crypto)
- Market conditions (external factor)
Developing Your Own Thesis
A DeepDive is a starting point. Build your thesis by asking:
-
Do I understand what this project does?
- If no, research more or skip it
-
Why would this token increase in value?
- Use case growth? Token utility? Speculation?
-
What would prove my thesis wrong?
- Identify your exit triggers
-
What's my time horizon?
- Day trade? Swing? Long-term hold?
-
How much am I willing to lose?
- Position size accordingly
Common Mistakes
Over-relying on DeepDive
- It's AI analysis, not a crystal ball
- Always do additional research
- Consider what the report might miss
Ignoring Red Flags
- Every token has risks
- Don't dismiss warnings that conflict with your hopes
- The risk section exists for a reason
Analysis Paralysis
- You don't need perfect information
- Make decisions with incomplete data
- Set rules and follow them
Combining Multiple Reports
For best results:
- Run DeepDives on competing tokens
- Compare metrics side by side
- Look for outliers (good and bad)
- Consider which fits your strategy
