• Quick sell command (/s [address])
• Default sell button percentages
• Position quick-sell suggestions

How to Change

1. Go to Settings
2. Tap Sell Percent
3. Select preset or tap Custom %

Recommended Settings

Strategy	Recommended Percentage	Use Case
Gradual Exit	25%	Take profits in stages
Balanced	50%	Reduce exposure, keep upside
Quick Exit	75-100%	Fast liquidation

TIP

Set your default to 50% for balanced profit-taking. You can always override with custom amounts when needed.

Slippage Tolerance

What It Controls

Maximum price movement you'll accept during swap execution:

• Protects against unfavorable price changes
• Balance between execution success and price protection
• Applies to all trades (buy, sell, limit orders)

Understanding Slippage

Example with 5% slippage:

Token price when you click: $1.00
Maximum you'll pay: $1.05
If price exceeds $1.05 → Trade fails (protects you)

How to Change

1. Go to Settings
2. Tap Slippage Tolerance
3. Select preset or tap Custom
4. If custom, enter percentage (0.1-99)
5. Confirm selection

Image Description: Slippage settings screen showing:

• Information box explaining slippage
• Preset buttons: 1%, 5%, 10%, 15%
• "Custom" button
• Warning for high slippage values
• Back button

Recommended Settings

Token Type	Recommended Slippage	Rationale
High Liquidity	1-2%	Stable prices, tight spreads
Medium Liquidity	2-5%	Most common
Low Liquidity	5-10%	Higher price impact
Very Low Liquidity	10-15%	Necessary for execution

WARNING

Slippage vs Price Impact:

• Slippage: Maximum price change you accept
• Price Impact: How much your trade moves the price
• High slippage doesn't mean you'll get worse prices. It just allows trades in more volatile conditions
