# Limit Sell

{% hint style="info" %}
You can set a **Limit Sell,** and BONKbot will automatically sell at a specific Market Cap, Price, % Return, or X Return. 
{% endhint %}

#### **For Limit Sells, BONKbot will let you create two types of orders:**

1. **Take Profit:** Sell Above the current price (secure profit!)
2. **Stop Loss:** Sell Below the current price (protect downside)

***Either***

3. Click the Preset Sell Amount (in the example above it is Limit Sell 100%)

***OR***

4. Click Limit Sell X%, and type in how much you want to sell in this order.&#x20;

***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 sell (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 Sell** order is now set and will remain open until the condition is met or you cancel it.

### Example Limit Sell with GIF:

* Amount: 50%
* Trigger: 2x

The bot will execute the order if the market cap increases to 2x 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.*
