Finding tokens
Axiom Pulse: the complete guide
Pulse is Axiom's live view of the Solana launch pipeline. Three columns show tokens as they are created, as they near the end of their bonding curve, and as they migrate to a DEX. Fourteen filters cut the feed down, and a Quick Buy button on every row executes without leaving the screen. It is where most Axiom users spend their time, so it is worth understanding what each column and filter actually measures.
The three columns
| Column | What it shows | Character |
|---|---|---|
| New Pairs | Tokens that were just created on pump.fun and similar launchpads | Highest volume of tokens, highest failure rate, speed matters most |
| Final Stretch | Tokens close to completing their bonding curve and migrating | Some proof of demand; the migration event itself is the catalyst |
| Migrated | Tokens that have just reached a Raydium pool, newest first | Real liquidity pool exists; Axiom's docs call this catching the pump |
Axiom pitches Pulse as a replacement for watching the launchpad's own site, which it describes as "laggy and unusable at times". The direct link is axiom.trade/pulse once you are logged in.
The 14 filters, and what each tells you
| Filter | Measures | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| Age (mins) | Minutes since launch | Very new means very unproven |
| Top 10 holders % | Supply held by the ten largest wallets | Lower is more decentralised |
| Dev holding % | Supply the creator holds | High means one wallet can crash the price |
| Snipers % | Share held by early bot buyers | High suggests bot activity at launch |
| Insiders % | Share held by team or private-sale wallets | Axiom flags this as a pump-and-dump signal |
| Bundle % | Supply in wallets that bought in coordinated bundles | See the bundle checker |
| Holders | Number of unique wallets | More usually means broader adoption |
| Pro Traders | Share of experienced traders involved | Indicates traders active on other platforms |
| Liquidity ($) | Value in the pool | Higher means your order moves the price less |
| Volume ($) | Trading volume in the period | Activity, but can include wash trading |
| Market cap ($) | Price times supply | Target small or large caps |
| Txns | Number of transactions | Activity level |
| Num Buys | Buy count | Buying pressure |
| Num Sells | Sell count | Selling pressure; compare with buys |
Filters are reached from the filter buttons on each column. Axiom's docs are clear that these are tools for assessing risk, not guarantees; a token can pass every filter and still go to zero.
A starting filter set
This is a conservative configuration for someone new to Pulse. It removes the most obviously manipulated launches and leaves fewer, slower candidates.
- Dev holding below 5%, Insiders below 10%, Bundle below 20%, Top 10 holders below 30%
- Holders above 100 and Pro Traders present
- Liquidity above a level where your intended buy is under 1% of the pool
- Buys meaningfully higher than sells over the last few minutes
Experienced traders loosen these for speed. Whatever you choose, pair the filters with Trader Scan on the token page before sizing up.
Quick Buy
The lightning-bolt icon on each row buys a preset amount of SOL in one click, using your current settings. Set the preset small before you first use it. New Pairs is the most volatile list on the platform, and Quick Buy removes every pause in which you might reconsider.
The Twitter preview popup
Many Solana launches are built on a tweet. Axiom added a preview popup inside Pulse so you can read the source tweet without leaving the feed. Axiom's docs note it works for tweets, not for profile handles. More in the Twitter tracker guide.
Pulse with the wallet tracker
Axiom's wallet-tracking docs point out that you can watch what your tracked wallets are buying in real time while looking at Pulse. Seeing a wallet you respect buy a token that also passes your filters is a stronger signal than either alone. Setup is in the wallet tracker guide.
Pulse FAQ
What is Final Stretch on Axiom?
The Pulse column for tokens close to completing their bonding curve and migrating to Raydium. The migration is often a price catalyst, which is why the column exists.
Is Pulse free?
Yes. It is part of the terminal for every account. You pay Axiom's trading fee only when you trade.
Does Pulse show tokens from launchpads other than pump.fun?
Axiom's docs describe pump.fun and another launchpad whose name is redacted in the public docs. Check the live feed for the sources currently covered.
Can Pulse filters make a token safe?
No. They remove some of the worst distributions. Axiom says its detection methods are not foolproof, and a clean-looking launch can still be dumped.
