Buying and selling

The trade panel, quotes, slippage and everything on a token page.

Every token page has a trade panel, and so does the Hottest build spotlight on the home page. A trade goes straight to the token's Meteora DBC pool and is signed by your wallet; BrickPad never holds your SOL or tokens.

Place a trade

  1. Pick Buy or Sell

    The two tabs at the top of the trade panel.

  2. Enter an amount

    Buys are in SOL (presets 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5). Sells are in tokens, with presets for 25%, 50%, 75%, MAX of your balance.

  3. Check the quote

    It shows what you receive, the trading fee in effect and the 2% slippage limit. It updates as you type.

  4. Confirm in your wallet

    Press Buy or Sell (Connect wallet first if you have not), then approve the transaction in your wallet.

In the first seconds

During the 30-second anti-sniper window the fee starts at 99%. The quote marks it, so check it before you sign. See Anti-sniper fees.

Slippage

Prices move while your transaction is on its way. BrickPad sets a 2% limit: if the price moves more than that against you before your trade lands, the trade fails instead of filling at a worse price, and you keep your funds (minus the network fee).

On a phone

A bar with the price and Buy and Sell buttons stays at the bottom of the screen until the trade panel scrolls into view.

After graduation

Once a token graduates, it trades in its Meteora DAMM v2 pool instead. Its card shows a Meteora button that opens that pool. See Bonding curve and graduation.
