Topic: What does 'Pump and Dump' means in crypto trading ? - page 5. (Read 6684 times)
it's when a group of traders, or a trader with a big stash, try to influence the market by first buying (increasing the price) and after more people have bought into it (by seeing the awesome gains), dump it shortly after (sell)
Pump means the coins price or value is increasing while dump means it is decreasing, so basically if traders do short term or long term trading when the coin is pumping they set them to a sell order thus selling the coin to a higher value and if it is dumping they set them to the lowest buy order to buy coins at its lowest price.
Pump is when the market value of the coin is high or has increase while dump is when the market value of the coins has drop significantly or has fall. A good investors will buy or invest in a coins when the market value has reduce and wait till when its value increase before selling it.

from basic understanding dump means DROP,
does the PUMP means buy ?
For me, PUMP is the increasing of price of coins which means most of the user/investor buy the coins so the supply will increase. At this time, if you want a profit, it is the time to sell the coins because price is high your coins from wallet has an opportunity to get a profit. This tine the greediness come.i am not a day trader , so i dont know much about these terms.,

The DUMP is the decreasing of price of coins, the dump is the panicking of people because they can't get a profit from their capital, most of this time the user sell their coins because they want to convert in local currency because bitcoin can't use to buy/pay directly to other stores.
Ahh... A couple of weeks ago, I experienced and learned how pump and dumps (PnD) operate..From what I have seen, only the people who orchestrate it get any good dough. unless you are lucky enough to be holding the coin that was pumped before hand and can sell in time. This is just from my experience however.
Its hard to say about pump and dump in the btc trading. You can say so about some shitcoin trading tho.
Pump and dump is not a mechanism of up and down in price. Its a mechanism that describes the rapid changes in the price that results mainly in the lose in popularity in the endresult. That is not the case with bitcoin. Bitcoin changes in price, results in an increase in popularity, volume, and price, after a small, normal to market corrections in value of btc.

Bitcoin pump and dumps work in a very simple yet straightforward manner. Pump and Dump schemes comprise of two groups of people. The first group is players who play by artificially increasing the price of the Bitcoin by endorsing or promoting it. This category of individuals spends their time finding cheap coins to purchase then wait for when they are ready for dumping and build a buzz about the coins. The process of finding and buying cheap coins can take as quick as minutes or as long as hours or even days.
It seems to me that for today it is necessary to restore this process of finding coins or even commerce. It is necessary to wait for the moment when there is a fall or at all it is not clear what happens at the crypto-exchange exchanges. Although very tempting and is the fact that buying cheaper coins May in the future bring a very good profit. Perhaps you need to take advantage of such a moment.
In my own understanding and also according to what I have learned, pump and dump is what they meant for the price of each token in the market rise from the initial spot to the highest limit it would reach, while dumps or dumping is the opposite or below the initial price.
That's basic same as buy low and sell at high price , Pump is not only means a price to up but it have some like pump due to hype or it is pump because of a update or new launch that happens to a coin to have a hype price. Dump sometimes a coin dumps hard if a coin is like a scam coin which created and added in a exchanges for the creator of the coin to earn from us sadly but its true , every single word have many means that's why experience is a must.

Yes, it is right, dump mean drop and pump mean up and buying.
If anyone know about this meaning than it mean now we are ready to start trading in sense of making money.
But sometime we miss the chance to make money and than we are going into lose. But sometime we think that we will get profit but by chance coins take turn and dump and pump give us surprise.

Simple, pumping means the price or value of the coin is increasing while dumping means the value of the coin is decreasing. That applies both, either long term or short term in trading. I think that's the simplest explanation so not to confuse newbies in trading.
Yeah this is a very good definition precise and easy to understand by any of the person. Especially for the new comers who are not used to with the crypto market terminologies. I appreciate you explaining it in such an simple way. More precisely I will say price up is pump and price down is dump. Many terms about pump and dump but almost all answer here are the same or both are good meaning about the definition they give..
But i think its including the margin if they are talking about a pump and dump coins which is they are making their own margin to pump the price of coins or dump the price of coins..

Hope this helps and also if you are going to buy while the coin is pumping there is a possibility that you could lose your money,
Because we all know that if the coins price goes up the holders or owners would sell their coin.

Just like what it happens in a real life situation, when you are doing a pump you are putting a pressure that results into the rise of a certain object. That is also what really happen in the market industry. Price values of various types of cryptocurrency undergoes a certain process of pumping and dumping which normally happens with the sudden exchanges of price value in the market. Also in cryptotrading. The rise of the btc value for buying a certain altcoin is an indication that it is now time to sell some assets you are holding for trading.i am not a day trader , so i dont know much about these terms.,

Indeed we actually have some time to look for profits in one place and also some time to find other views outside the venue. For every time of life definitely has some changes which we should want to follow those changes. BTC and cryptocurrency is the very thing that has an attachment, if you want to get a lot of advantage then must know and use both of these. But the science of trading you must have for the dump and pump that is discussed in this thread is very dangerous. As the above said, the agan so fix your way of thinking
So many wrong answers and such an easy way to get better info. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_and_dump
Quote
"Pump and dump" (P&D) is a form of microcap stock fraud that involves artificially inflating the price of an owned stock through false and misleading positive statements, in order to sell the cheaply purchased stock at a higher price. Once the operators of the scheme "dump" sell their overvalued shares, the price falls and investors lose their money. Stocks that are the subject of pump and dump schemes are sometimes called "chop stocks".[1]
While fraudsters in the past relied on cold calls, the Internet now offers a cheaper and easier way of reaching large numbers of potential investors.[1]

Yes.
The "pump" is not the increase in price. The pump is the promoting that causes victims to buy, which causes the price to rise. The scammer buys before the pump so that they can get the maximum profit when they sell.
The "dump" is not the fall in price. The scammer dumps the shares at inflated prices to the victims that buy as a result of the pump. The fall in prices happens after the dump when there are no more buyers to support the inflated price.
A "pump group" is a scam. Here is how it works:
1. The scammer creates a "pump group" convincing each member that they are on the inside and that they will profit.
2. The scammer selects a coin and buys it doing their best to pay the lowest price possible.
3. The pump. The scammer announces the time and date when members are supposed to buy.
4. Smarter members buy early, the rest buy at or after the announced time and date.
5. The price starts rising and members and others start buying.
6. The dump. The scammer starts selling as the price rises.
7. The buyers dry up and the price falls.
8. The scammer and some members make money, but everyone else loses.
The pump group scam works because of the belief that the pump is the rise in prices and the dump is the fall in prices.
Finally, this is not all theoretical. I know a guy that does this now, and some old-timers might remember Fontas, who was (and probably still is) a master of pump-and-dump.
Of course most of these pump and dump groups can be considered scams since they'll use the foolishness of the many that participate to earn money for themselves. Most of then always buy before announcing and sell before announcing it. The way they do it can definitely be labeled as a scam.
It is manipulation, and with some market's you can manipulate with 1000 dollars and for some you need a fortune. Pumps and dumps are economy terms and they exist for a long time, much before crypto currencies. Alts, stocks, or anything else that have low value is submissive to manipulation.
With buying and selling some coin they are creating a fake demand, but pay attention they have a lot of coins stashed. When they pump the price enough they start the dump, selling all the coins from their stash, dumping them to others that are late and they get out from the game, and coin without this pump group, that made this fake trading volume, will go down to zero.
They're everywhere, not just crypto. The difference is that in traditional markets it can be against the law. There's no such thing with crypto. Perhaps there will some day as it's outrageously blatant.
There could be laws against market manipulations but when traders doing it in group they are not getting noticed and still getting their benefits of pumps and dumps.@OP
Pumps and dumps are nothing but manipulating market prices as per one's wish. It is possible with a trading asset when it is not having enough volume. Almost all cryptos are currently vulnerable to get pumped and dumped as there are whales to do so. But when cryptos grow with more userbase who will be adopting, these whales will lose their power then crypto will become secured from manipulations.
so that they can get the best from trading. 
In my own understanding and also according to what I have learned, pump and dump is what they meant for the price of each token in the market rise from the initial spot to the highest limit it would reach, while dumps or dumping is the opposite or below the initial price.

yes that is right when the price of bitcoin start increasing from where it is trading for some time as stable we call it as pumping position, and if the price of bitcoin start decreasing from that potion where it was trading then it is called as dumping potion. i think these are the common world use for the increase and decrease of the price of bitcoin.
