On ripr, the day's biggest movers are a sort rather than a news story: open Explore, pick the Gainers sort, and Solana's 24-hour gainers are ranked live in front of you, with Losers sitting right beside it. Reading that list is the part that takes skill. The coin at the top of a raw gainers ranking is usually the smallest and thinnest thing on the screen, so the job is to filter the list first, then check the move on the coin page before you act on it.

Here is how to run that, screen by screen.

## Where today's gainers and losers live on ripr

[Explore](https://ripr.trade/explore) is ripr's market screen, and the row of sort chips across the top of it is the part worth learning. It includes Trending, Market Cap, Gainers, Losers, Txns, Holders and Creation Time. Gainers and Losers both rank by price change over the past 24 hours, so "today" means a rolling day: the list keeps moving as the clock does.

The figures behind those two lists come from ripr's own in-house Solana data and execution layer, which decodes transactions from the chain itself. Prices, charts and trade feeds then update over a live streaming connection instead of waiting for a page refresh, so a coin can climb into view or drop out of it while you are still reading.

One distinction saves a lot of confusion. [Trending](https://ripr.trade/?tab=trending) ranks coins on how fast trades, volume and distinct buyers are growing, and it lowers coins whose activity looks manipulated. Gainers ranks on price change, full stop. A coin can head the Gainers list on a handful of buys and never show up in Trending at all.

## Filter the gainers list before you read it

Price change is a ratio, and ratios flatter small numbers. A coin whose pool holds two thousand dollars can print a three-figure percentage gain on a few hundred dollars of buying. That tells you about the size of the pool, not about demand.

So filter before you read. ripr's screener carries eight range filters. On a movers list the two that matter most are liquidity and 24-hour volume, with market cap, holder count, coin age and the day's trade count behind them, and you can narrow by venue too. A workable starting point:

1. Put a liquidity floor in place, high enough that your own position would not visibly move the price on the way in or out.
2. Add a minimum for 24-hour volume or trade count, so you are looking at coins that are genuinely changing hands.
3. Set a holder minimum. A 400% gain spread across eleven wallets is a private party.
4. Add an age range if you want a real trading history behind the move.
5. Re-run the same set later in the day. The coins that keep clearing it are the ones worth opening.

ripr already applies one floor of this kind for you. When you sort by market cap it holds back coins with under $5,000 of liquidity or fewer than 100 holders, unless you set those bounds yourself, so a long-abandoned ticker cannot sit at the top of your screen.

## What a 24-hour move actually measures

A 24-hour change compares the price now with the price a day ago, so a coin needs a full day of trading behind it before that comparison means anything. Pull a coin that launched a few hours ago out of ripr's data and there is no day-old price to measure against; the figure you get is the move since it opened. One such coin was up roughly 245% since launch, on a pool holding about $2,400, with 87 wallets in it.

So check a mover's age before you read its percentage. A few hundred percent since breakfast and a few hundred percent over a full day are different animals.

ripr's market data also records how each figure was worked out, whether from an executed trade or from the reserves sitting in a pool, and when it was taken. A figure it cannot work out is left empty rather than printed as a zero, so an empty cell means "nothing to compare yet" rather than "flat".

If this morning's launches are what you are after, sort by Creation Time instead, or browse ripr's [newest coins](https://ripr.trade/?tab=latest). Gainers is for coins with a day behind them.

## Check why a coin moved today

Buying a mover is a bet on why it moved, so open the coin page. ripr's web chart gives you eight timeframes from one second to one day, in price, market-cap or volume mode, and volume mode is what keeps a percentage honest. A gain on rising volume is participation. The same gain over flat volume bars is one wallet and a thin book.

Below the chart, the coin page runs a live list of recent trades as fills land, which tells you whether buyers are still arriving or the move already finished. Then read the ownership. ripr shows how much of the supply the top 10 and top 50 holders and the creator hold, with pools and vaults left out, and it lists the other coins that creator has launched, so a serial launcher is easy to spot.

Scale changes what a percentage means. An established Solana coin pulled from ripr's data showed over 60,000 holders and roughly $347,000 of pool liquidity behind some 14,500 trades in a day, split almost evenly between buys and sells, for a price move of a couple of percent. Heavy trading, small net movement: that is a liquid market. Every trade behind any move is public on [Solana's explorer](https://explorer.solana.com/) if you want to audit it yourself.

## Reading the losers list without catching a falling knife

The Losers sort is the half of this question most people skip, and it is the half with teeth. A coin falls because attention moved on. It also falls because somebody took the liquidity. In a percentage column those look identical.

So read the warnings before you buy anything that is down. ripr shows warnings for known rug patterns on a coin, such as a creator who holds unlocked liquidity, liquidity that has already been pulled, or a coordinated launch, and it says plainly that not seeing a warning never means a coin is safe. Those checks cover newly created coins too, so the shape of a launch gets flagged alongside the shape of an exit.

On a very fresh coin the checks can still be running, and the app tells you that instead of showing a clean result. On iPhone and Android the coin page also says when a coin is under review, has low liquidity or has paused prices.

Explore has a Hide warnings filter that keeps the coins ripr has flagged out of your lists whenever you want a cleaner screen. It works on what has been checked, which is why the coin page stays the read that counts. The help centre explains [why price moves so quickly on new coins](https://ripr.trade/support/why-does-price-move-so-quickly-on-new-coins), and our guide to [spotting a risky meme coin](https://ripr.trade/blog/how-to-spot-a-risky-meme-coin) has the rest of the checklist.

## Keep today's movers and size them like movers

Lists are for finding. A watchlist is for following, and Explore keeps watchlists on web, iPhone and Android. Add any coin by searching its name, ticker or full contract address, and paste an address in full when two tickers look alike. ripr's notifications cover price and launch alerts, capped so your phone stays usable.

On iPhone and Android, Narratives group coins that share a theme word in their name or ticker and label each group Hot, Rising or Cooling. Follow one and you get a notification when it turns Hot or moves sharply. That is the theme-level version of the same question: not which coin is up today, but which idea is.

When you do trade a mover, let the app set the tolerance. ripr's Auto slippage works your maximum out from how much the coin moved in the last five minutes, between 3% and 15%, or you can set a figure by hand.

Then the unglamorous rules. Keep entries small, keep some SOL aside for network fees, and read the help centre on [trading more safely](https://ripr.trade/support/how-can-i-trade-more-safely) before you chase anything.

A gainers list is a question, not an answer. It tells you where price moved and nothing about why it moved. Run it on [ripr's Explore screener](https://ripr.trade/explore) with your own floors on liquidity and holders, read the move on the coin page, check the warnings, and keep whatever survives in a watchlist. The movers worth your money tend to appear on that list twice.
