#### **For Limit Buys, BONKbot will let you create two types of orders:**
1. **Buy Dip:** Buy Below the current price
2. **Buy Breakout:** Buy Above the current price

### **How to Set a Limit Buy:**
1. Type a new coin address, or go to an existing position.
2. Select the **Limit** ✅ option in the menu.
***Either***
3. Click the Preset Buy Amount (in the example above it is 5 SOL)
***OR***
4. Click Limit Buy X SOL, and type in how much you want to buy in this order.
***Then, you can choose your trigger condition.***
5. You can use any one of the following triggers:
* **Market Capitalization (MCap)** in thousands (K), millions (M), or billions (B). For example, "2B" means the order will trigger when the token's market cap hits 2 billion.
* **Price in USD**: Specify the price at which to execute the buy (e.g., “0.05” for $0.05 per token).
* **Multiple**: You can enter a multiple of the current price or market cap (e.g., “0.8x” or "0.5x").
* **Percentage Change**: Set a percentage increase or decrease from the current price (e.g., “+5%” or “-5%”).
6. Confirm the details of the order, including the trigger and amount.
6. Your **Limit Buy** order is now set and will remain open until the condition is met or you cancel it.

### Example Limit Buy with GIF:
* Amount: 0.5 SOL
* Trigger: 0.5x (this is half the current MCap)
The bot will execute the order if the market cap drops to 0.5x the current value
*Please note that while limit orders guarantee a price trigger, they do not guarantee that the order will be filled if market conditions fluctuate quickly.*
