# Casual Trading

**Trading new pairs can be a blind gamble without knowing how to read a contract or a consultant.**

**Trading new pairs is not recommended for casual users by Flash.**

**This channel has the highest level of safety against rugpulls and scams. The tokens here tend to have better wallet distribution and quality users.**

**You should always Do Your Own Research**

* **Check a tokens socials like twitter/x and telegram. Communicate with the team.**
* **Use a quality token chart site for trade volume and confident opportunities to buy or sell.**
* **Use the contract checker embeds and** [**etherscan**](https://etherscan.io/) **to see what projects are doing with users taxes and marketing/development funds.**

**Using Contract Embeds:**

* [**Flash Trusted**](https://flash-analytics.gitbook.io/flash-analytics/flash-trusted) **embeds are contracts that are** [**verified**](https://flash-analytics.gitbook.io/flash-analytics/verified-pairs)**,** [**renounced**](https://flash-analytics.gitbook.io/flash-analytics/renounced)**, and** [**locked liquidity**](https://flash-analytics.gitbook.io/flash-analytics/locked-liquidity)**.** 
* **This can assure users that the tokens team is actively giving up direct control of the contract and access to the liquidity pool, which is a step towards a safer trade.**
