#### Global Settings Overview

✅ **Turn ON | ❌  Turn OFF**

* Enable or disable automated trading with a single click.
* Status: **✅ ON** means trading is active; click **❌ Turn OFF** to pause it.

♻️ **Toggle Mode**

* Switch between the four trading modes:
  * 🥇 **First Trending**
  * 📡 **Signal**
  * 📈 **ATH**
  * 🤫 **Insider**

**✍️ Mode-specific Settings**

✅ **Enable MoonBag | ❌  Disable MoonBag**

{% hint style="info" %}
What is MoonBag?

Have you had a situation where you sold too early and the token mooned x100? MoonBag is a method aimed to prevent that from happening.&#x20;

You can sell only 90% (or any other amount) of your holdings when it hits first TP and leave the remainder to be sold at a second, much higher TP.
{% endhint %}

* Enable or disable holding MoonBag
* If you see : **✅ ON** means trading is active; click **❌ OFF** to pause it.

🔴 **Set Stop Loss (SL)**

* Define your risk tolerance by setting a percentage for automatic sell when the price drops below this level.

🟢 **Set Take Profit (TP)**

* Maximize gains by setting a percentage for automatic sell when the price reaches this level.

⏰ **Deploy Time**

* This setting allows you to choose how recently a token was deployed. For example:
  * **Short timeframes** (e.g., 24–72 hours): Focus only on brand-new tokens with high early adoption potential.
  * **Longer timeframes** (e.g., 3000 hours or \~4 months): Include older tokens that have had time to stabilize or build traction.

&#x20;👛 **Top 10% hold**

* This setting ensures no single group (top 10 holders) controls too much of the token supply, reducing risks from large sell-offs or manipulation.

💰 **Set Buy Size**

* Specify the size of each automated buy (e.g., 0.1 SOL).

Once you’ve adjusted these global settings to your liking, proceed to select a trading mode. Each mode has its own specific configurations, explained in the following pages.
