What works incredibly well for me on @nansen_ai is tracking smart money wallet sells near local tops.
This approach helps me discover some of the best swing traders in DeFi.
Once I find them, I just:
- Add their wallet to a watchlist
- Create a smart alert
- Specify exactly what I want to track
You can customize alerts by:
- Transaction value thresholds
- Specific tokens (exclude noise)
Nansen sends these alerts directly to Telegram, Discord, or Slack.
The timing of these alerts is instant.
What’s amazing is that many of the wallets that are great at selling tops... are just as good at buying bottoms.
So even if you’re not copying their trades, you’re learning live from the best.
You’ll start to see:
- When and why they enter
- How they size in (all at once vs. in parts)
- What they do when a position goes against them
- Where they exit, profit or stop loss
This is how I’ve learned the most.
I do this every day:
- To check my current wallet watchlist
- To find new wallets to track (since smart money often rotates to fresh wallets for privacy)
Not all of them are smart, some just got lucky. Don’t be naive and copy everyone blindly. But if you take this seriously, you’ll discover the best.
Used the right way, this can completely change your trading.
If you’re trading solo, it’s easy to get lost in the noise.
Tracking wallets gives you real-time visibility into:
- Early accumulation
- Top selling
- DCA in or out
- And so much more
Just find the right wallets and set the right alerts.
Nansen is the best tool for that.
Next time, I’ll dive deep into another powerful Nansen feature I use daily.
I’m sure you’ll love it, if you love the market as much as I do.
