Stop Orders

Automatically sell tokens when price drops below a threshold.

Overview​

Stop orders protect your positions by selling when price falls. They're essential for:

  • Limiting losses
  • Protecting profits
  • Managing risk automatically

Supported Chains​

Stop orders are available on EVM chains — Base, Robinhood Chain, Ethereum, Polygon, Unichain, Arbitrum, BNB Chain and World Chain.

On Solana, stop orders are placed as Jupiter trigger orders, which take a 0.5% fee when they fill.

Basic Stop Orders​

Sell when price drops:

"sell all my DEGEN if it drops 20%"
"sell my BNKR if it falls 15%"
"stop loss on ETH at -10%"

With Specific Amounts​

"sell 50% of my DEGEN if it drops 20%"
"sell 1000 BNKR if price drops 25%"

Trailing Stops and Stop Buys​

A trailing stop moves up with the price and sells once it falls the given percentage from its highest point since you set it (EVM chains only). A stop buy enters a position when the price rises past your level:

"set a 10% trailing stop on my BNKR"
"buy $100 of ETH if it pumps 5%"

How Stop Orders Work​

  1. You set the stop — Specify token, amount, and trigger percentage
  2. Price is monitored — Bankr watches continuously
  3. Price drops below threshold — Stop triggers
  4. Tokens are sold — Swap executes automatically

Managing Stop Orders​

View Active Stops​

"show my stop orders"
"what automations do I have?"

Cancel Stops​

"cancel my stop order for DEGEN"
"cancel all my stop orders"

Use Cases​

Protect Against Losses​

Set stops on new positions:

"buy $100 of NEWTOKEN"
"set a stop loss at -20% for NEWTOKEN"

Lock In Profits​

After a token pumps, protect your gains:

"set stop loss on BNKR at -10%"

If BNKR is up 50% and drops 10% from current, you still exit with 35% profit.

Risk Management​

Standard risk management approach:

"buy $500 of ETH"
"stop loss at -5%"  # Max loss: $25

Combine with Take Profits​

Use both stop orders and limit sells:

"set stop loss on BNKR at -15%"
"sell half my BNKR when it rises 50%"

Limitations​

  • Execution price may differ from trigger (slippage)
  • Orders expire after 7 days unless you ask for a longer window when you place them
  • Requires sufficient gas balance
