**How to Add a Limit Order** 🚀

1️⃣ **Choose Your Limit Order Type**

* **Market Cap (MC):** Buy when the token's **market cap** reaches your target.
* **Price ($):** Buy when the token hits a specific **price**.
* **% Drop:** Buy after the token **drops by a set percentage** from its current price.

2️⃣ **Set the Expiry Time**

* Use the format **"30s"** for **30 seconds** / **"5m"** for **5 minutes /** **"1h"** for **1 hour** / **"1d"** for **1 day**.
* The **minimum expiry is 30s and the maximum expiry** is **72 hours (3 days)**.

3️⃣ **Enter the Amount of SOL**

* Specify how much **SOL** you want to spend on this order.

4️⃣ **Set Your Trigger Condition**

* **Market Cap (MC):** Enter the market cap at which you want to buy (e.g., **20500**, **20.5k**, or **1.1m**).
* **Price ($):** Set an exact price you want to buy at (e.g., **"0.199"**, meaning when the token reaches $0.199, the order will execute).
* **Percentage Drop (%):** Specify how much the price should drop to trigger the order (e.g., **"10%"**—if the current price is **$0.2388**, a 10% drop would trigger at **$0.2149**).

Once all settings are adjusted, **preview your order**, review the details, and confirm! ✅

💡 **Your order will execute automatically once the conditions are met!** 🚀

You can **edit or cancel** your order anytime:&#x20;
