DryFlip is a Chrome extension that lays a simulated SOL balance and buy and sell buttons over Axiom's live charts, so the tokens and the price action are real while the money is not. I spent time with Kuho Trades' walkthrough of it, published on September 28, 2026, and the part worth keeping is a ladder rather than a single button: practise on fake SOL until one SOL becomes ten, then start the ladder again. No deposit, no invite and no funded wallet are needed to follow along.
What Axiom paper trading means here
Axiom is a non-custodial web trading terminal for Solana memecoins at axiom.trade. Non-custodial means the coins stay in your own wallet: you connect it, and the keys never leave your control. Paper trading means practising with simulated money, so a bad entry costs you time instead of funds.
In this setup, the simulated money lives in DryFlip, a browser extension, rather than in an Axiom demo account. DryFlip draws its own balance, position size and order buttons on top of whichever terminal you pick, and the chart underneath stays the live one.
That matters beyond Axiom. The platform list includes GMGN, Photon, Trojan, Bullx, Jupiter, Dexscreener and Raydium, and the settings list six networks: Solana, BNB Chain, Base, Ethereum, Sui and Avalanche. If you move to a different terminal later, the habit of practising first carries over with you.
Memecoin trading is extremely volatile, and the usual beginner mistake is learning an interface with real money already in the position. A practice balance lets you make that mistake on a chart that is doing exactly what the live market does, then look at what it cost in simulation.
One number you will meet on every memecoin chart is market cap, or MC: the token's price multiplied by its circulating supply. Traders watch it instead of the price because it roughly says how big the thing has already become and how much room is left for another leg up.
Install DryFlip and connect it to Axiom
An extension that draws a trading panel over a page can read that page, so check who published it and what it asks for. The Chrome Web Store listing has 4.7 stars and more than 40,000 users, a reasonable starting point rather than a guarantee. Read the permissions and ask whether an overlay that draws buttons needs each one. Two minutes spent there beats installing something careless next to a wallet that holds real money.
Then the install:
- Go to dryflip.com and press Add to Chrome, then Add extension. The creator links the site in his description; I would type the address myself instead of trusting a link under a video.
- Approve the browser prompt. DryFlip opens its own page with a list of supported trading platforms.
- Select Axiom from that list.
- Sign in to Axiom in your browser first, then press Start trading. DryFlip logs you in on its own.
- Open any token on Axiom. Nothing changes on the terminal until a token chart is open, and that is when the DryFlip panel appears beside it.
At no point does this ask for a seed phrase or a private key. A seed phrase is the list of words that restores a wallet, and anyone who has yours controls the funds, so close any page that asks for one.
You can drag the panel to the side of the screen once it is up, and a small button hides it entirely when you want a clean chart.
Read the DryFlip panel before you trade
The panel is small. The balance sits at the top, with a field for the amount you want to add and a Confirm deposit button next to it. The creator adds 10 SOL and the balance then reads 13 SOL.
Under the balance sit the quick buy buttons and the fee and slippage fields, which he describes as the same as Axiom's. Slippage is the gap between the price you expect and the price you actually get, and on a fast-moving memecoin it is often the difference between a small win and a loss. The rest of the panel is settings, and they are worth a few minutes before your first trade.
| Setting | What it changes | Value used in the video |
|---|---|---|
| Execution delay | adds a pause between your click and the fill, closer to a live fill | 0.2 to 0.5 seconds |
| Quick buy amount | sets the size the one-click buy button sends | 0.5 SOL |
| Widget size | changes how large the panel is drawn | 100 |
| Sound | plays a sound on buys and sells, with a volume control | on, adjustable |
| Take profit | closes part of the position at a set multiple | 2x, selling 50 percent |
| Networks | the chains you can practise on | Solana, BNB Chain, Base, Ethereum, Sui, Avalanche |
The execution delay is the setting I would not leave at zero. A real fill on a moving memecoin rarely lands at the exact price on your screen, and half a second of delay in the simulation keeps the practice honest. The creator wants the same realism from it.
Quick buy is the other setting to think about. It sends a fixed order size with one click, which is convenient and the fastest way to take a trade you had not planned.
Place a paper trade from open to close
Repeat this loop until it feels boring.
- Open the token you want on Axiom and park the DryFlip panel beside the chart.
- Type the size of your practice stack into the balance field, for example 10 SOL, and press Confirm deposit.
- Set the slippage field to the value you would use live and leave the fee field as it is.
- Watch the chart and press buy when the price dips.
- Press Sell 100% to close the position and read the profit or loss on the panel.
- Open Trade history to see the trade written down.
The simulation charges fees and slippage, as the creator points out, so a trade that goes nowhere still costs a little. His first example turns a buy into a gain of $50 on the panel, and he closes the whole position. The second is a scalp that closes at 20 percent.
He wants to be in a coin and out again as fast as he can, and he uses the paper balance to practise that rhythm. Whether the style suits you is another question.
Write down why you entered before you press buy, even in a practice account. The reason is the part you are actually training.
Check the trade history and the PnL card
Trade history is where practice turns into information. It lists the total number of trades you have taken, your win rate and your recent activity, and it can draw a profit and loss candle and a profit and loss calendar. I would look at the calendar first, because it shows whether your results cluster on a few good days or spread evenly across the month.
There is a share card too. After a trade closes you can put an image on it, either one you upload or one of the presets, and send it to a friend to show the profit.
Win rate is the number people screenshot and the least useful one on its own. A high win rate with one huge loser is worse than a lower one with small losses, and a dozen trades say almost nothing about skill. Use the history as a record of what you did, not a scoreboard.
Limit buys, take profit and stop loss
The panel also takes orders that fire while you are away from the chart. A limit buy needs a target market cap, and the format matters: type 1M for a million and add K for thousands, or the order will not behave the way you expect. His example buys 5 SOL once the market cap reaches 100K. Point the same field at 20K and you have an order waiting for a dip instead of chasing one.
A top sell does the reverse, and take profit and stop loss levels close part of a position. A take profit closes you out once a trade is up by a set amount, a stop loss once it is down by a set amount, and both remove the decision from the worst moment to make it. The preset here sells 50 percent at 2x, and custom levels can go anywhere on the chart.
Practising these on paper is the point. A stop loss you have never set is one you will fumble when it matters, and the order fields behave the same whether the balance behind them is real or simulated.
Scale one SOL to ten SOL before you risk real money
The routine the creator recommends is simple and repeatable. Reset the balance to 1 SOL, try to turn it into 10, then reset to 1 and run it again until you are confident. Only then would he put 1 SOL of real money in.
I like the ladder because it forces sizing. With 1 SOL you cannot buy a large position and hope, so you have to pick entries and take profit on the way up. It also hands you a defined loss: on paper, losing the stack costs nothing, and the lesson still lands.
He adds a condition that is easy to skip past. Make sure you have some skill before you try the fastest versions of this, he says, and he would not recommend the scalping style to a beginner. That warning is worth taking seriously.
What paper results do not tell you
A paper fill is not a real fill. The simulation can show a clean entry at the price you clicked, while the live market fills you a few percent worse when a token is moving, or does not fill you at all. The creator does not explain how DryFlip calculates fills, fees or available liquidity, so read the extension's own documentation before you treat a paper result as a benchmark.
Emotion is the second gap. A 20 percent drawdown on a simulated balance is a number on a screen. The same move in real SOL makes people freeze, average down or close at the bottom, and no practice account rehearses that for you.
Quick buy is the third. The creator uses it in his final example and warns against it in the same breath. "I would never use quick buy. I would always open the chart, look for a dip, and then buy." His quick buy scalp made 0.1 SOL, around $15, a small reward for the most demanding style in the walkthrough. That trade assumes you can click faster than whoever is on the other side, and on a live chart with real money I would not assume it.
A practice balance never tests whether you can leave a position alone. Most of the damage in memecoins comes from the trade after the trade, the one made because a loss stung.
Before you connect a wallet to Axiom
Axiom runs at axiom.trade, and that is the address to type or bookmark before anything else. Lookalike domains are cheap, and a wallet connection on the wrong one is the quickest way to lose funds. Connect a wallet you keep for this purpose alone, keep the balance small at the start, and never share a seed phrase or private key with a site, an extension or a person in a chat, whatever they claim to be.
If you want an account, axiom.trade/@code20 is this site's referral link, and the site may earn a share of the fees of people who join through it. It changes nothing about the free practice setup. When you are ready to trade real money, our Axiom setup walkthrough covers the filters, order types and risks in more detail.
Memecoins are volatile and many of them end at zero, which is why the ladder matters more than any single $50 paper gain. Pick one token, run the 1 to 10 SOL drill until the panel is boring, then check the extension's publisher and permissions again before you let it sit next to a funded wallet.
