Warning signal

One-Sided Trading

The pair has buys but no sells - either honeypot or pre-launch silence.

Analyzer: Distribution Analysis
Slug: one_sided_trading

What it means

Across the recent swap history, sells are either zero or below 1% of buys. Buyers exist; nobody is selling. Distinct from `buy_only_pattern` because this looks at swap volume, not transaction count.

Why it matters

Healthy tokens have a roughly 50/50 buy-sell ratio after a few hours. A persistent one-sided trade pattern is either a honeypot or fake-volume from the team's own wallets.
