TL;DR
Auto-sell automatically executes sell orders when a token reaches a preset price target (take-profit) or drops below a threshold (stop-loss), removing emotion from exit decisions.
You set conditions at the time of purchase: “sell 50% at 3x, sell remaining at 10x” or “sell everything if price drops 40%.” The trading bot monitors the token’s price and executes the sell automatically when conditions are met. MadeOnSol’s launcher includes auto-sell triggers that activate immediately after your token purchase confirms. No manual monitoring needed.
Tiered take-profit is the most popular approach: sell 30% at 2x (secure your initial investment), 30% at 5x (lock profit), and let the remaining 40% ride. This guarantees you’re profitable even if the token dumps after your first take-profit. More aggressive: sell 50% at 2x and trail the rest. More conservative: sell 100% at 2x and move on. The right strategy depends on your risk tolerance and the token’s momentum.
Stop-losses prevent catastrophic losses but have trade-offs in the memecoin market. Tight stop-losses (20%) get triggered by normal volatility, potentially selling you out of a winner. Wide stop-losses (60%) limit your downside less but keep you in through natural dips. Some traders skip stop-losses entirely on memecoins, using small position sizes as their risk management instead. Auto-sell removes the “it’ll come back” emotional trap that turns traders into bag holders.
