The chaotic visualization of overlapping user activity on the price chart visually reinforces the post's complaint about clutter, alert spam, and the negative impact of following others' trades on the Fomo platform.

> **Visual Note:** The image compares 30-day trader profitability on two Solana memecoin platforms, showing Fomo at 6.16% (18,152 of 294,742 traders) and pump.fun at 44.56% (181,210 of 406,675 traders) in profit. The accompanying post disputes these figures, arguing the real Fomo win rate is closer to 20% and that pump.fun's high percentage is inflated by bundling and rugging profits, putting the true honest-trader success rate around 2-3%.  

>

Just absolute slop 

Fomo winning % is around 20% 
Pump is all profits from bundling and rugging so that doesn’t count. True trader % prolly close to 2-3%
