TWAP.

Buy or sell a big amount in small slices over time, so one order does not move the chart against you.

One order, in slices, over time

Step by step

  1. 1

    Open the TWAP tab

    On a coin’s page, open TWAP, or go to Tools. Choose Buy slowly or Sell slowly.

  2. 2

    Set the order

    How much, over how long (10 minutes to 30 days) and how many slices (2 to 500). Fixed keeps equal slices and equal gaps. Random varies the size and timing, which makes it harder for bots to predict.

  3. 3

    Set your limit

    Never pay more than, or never sell below. It starts 5 percent from today’s price; you can set it between 1 and 25. Each slice is also kept within 10 percent of the one before it.

  4. 4

    Review and start

    The review shows every cost before you sign. Paying with USDG or a coin takes one approval first, then Start TWAP.

What it costs

Starting it
one network fee, from your wallet
Each slice
the site swap fee and a small TWAP service fee, both shown in the review
Gas for every slice
paid up front; what is not used comes back

Good to know

It can pause in a falling marketIf the price runs past your limit, slices wait instead of filling. A stalled order is better than a drained one. It never refunds itself at the end: cancel to get the rest back.

Works on coins with a pool against ETH or USDG, and on Pons and Flap coins still on their curve when the order is in ETH. Each slice goes wherever pays most, the curve or a pool.

Common questions

Can I cancel?
Yes. “Cancel and refund” returns the unspent money and all unused gas at once.
Can I change it once it runs?
Yes: change the limit, extend it (never past 30 days from the start) or change the step limit.
Who fills the slices?
Our keeper, every few seconds. It picks the pool; the contract fixes where the money goes, so it can only ever go to you.
