STEP (Step Finance) — Solana wake-up alerts

MicroEdge watches Step Finance (STEP) on Solana 24/7 and fires PROBE / STRIKE alerts when wake-up patterns, momentum bursts, post-pump retraces, or stake-derivative arbs cross our cost-dominance gates. This page covers what we look for, what triggers, and how to act on a STEP alert.

how we score STEP

Every observation of STEP runs through five strategies: wake-up, momentum-burst, post-pump-scalp, route-imbalance, and stake-derivative-arb (when applicable). Each produces a 0–100 score with breakdown. Anything below the cost-dominance toll is rejected before it ever reaches your phone.

Premium subscribers get the full alert. Free tier gets a delayed teaser. Each alert includes the strategy that fired, the score breakdown, suggested position size based on liquidity and confidence, and a Solscan link for the mint.

STEP risk filters

Before any STEP alert fires, our rejection engine checks: liquidity ≥ $1k, spread ≤ 100 bps, freeze authority off, top-holder concentration sane, signal age < 15s, no recent same-mint cooldown, no rug-pattern match. About 60% of raw signals are rejected at this stage.
