The Solana liquidity surge, explained
A focused breakdown of the liquidity surge strategy, what it triggers on, and where the gates apply.
what is the liquidity surge?
The liquidity surge is one of the strategies the MicroEdge scanner runs against every observation in real time. Different markets and conditions favor different strategies — running all of them in parallel surfaces opportunities that any single strategy would miss.
when does it fire?
The liquidity surge requires multiple supporting signals to align. False positives are expensive; missing real opportunities is forgivable. The gate is set such that ≥70% of raw firings get rejected before reaching subscribers.
code-level breakdown
// observation → score → reject → classify → alert
const score = liquiditysurgeScore(obs, baseline);
const rej = evaluateRejections({ obs, ageMs, baselinePriceChange1m, ... });
if (isHardRejected(rej)) return null;
if (!costDominancePasses(strategy, score, size)) return null;
if (!payoffViabilityPasses(strategy, tp, sl)) return null;
return { classification: classify(score), suggestedSize: sizeFor(...) };
common edge cases
- Liquidity drops while the pattern fires — gate refuses
- Move already vertical when detected — late-chase penalty drops score
- Fake volume from wash trading — unique buyer floor refuses
- Pool too new (<5 min old) — new-pool age filter refuses
- Cost-dominance fail at $1 trade size — refuses regardless of score
