Set the target
For a dip, choose a downward preset or enter a market cap below the current cap, such as 800k. A custom percentage such as -20% also sets a downward target.Accepted market-cap shorthand includes 45k and 12.5M.

Example
Assume a token’s current market cap is $1 million. You want to buy $100 if it falls to $800,000. Choose custom → 800k for the trigger and custom → $100 for the amount, then review and place the order. An equivalent -20% target uses the market reference at placement; a fixed 800k remains that specific target. This is an illustrative setup. The actual fill depends on the quote and liquidity when the order executes.Buy a breakout
Use the same flow with an upward trigger preset or a custom target above the current market cap, such as +10% or 2x. Review the direction and target preview before creating the order.Enter a custom trigger
Tap custom under Trigger to see the formats Cove accepts. The sell prompt groups examples by how Cove will interpret them:
The trigger sets when an order can run. Choose the buy or sell amount separately. Check the reference shown on the panel, the resulting target, and the order direction before creating it. On a sell, an unsigned 100% is a positive trigger; it does not mean “sell 100%” until you select that in Sell amount.

Edit limit presets
Open Settings → Trade panel settings → Buttons and controls → Limit preset amounts. Choose Limit buy presets or Limit sell presets, then switch between Triggers and Buy amounts / Sell amounts. Each side has seven trigger slots and three amount slots. Tap a slot to edit it; Reset defaults restores the selected list. These presets belong to the active profile. These quick values are separate from Order Presets P1–P3, which store a complete Limit form across your login. Save or recall a full order preset when you want to reuse triggers, amounts, steps, and expiry together. The default buy triggers are +20%, +50%, +75%, +100%, -20%, -50%, -75%, with $200 / $500 / $1,000 amounts. The default sell triggers are 1.5x, 2x, 5x, 10x, -20%, -50%, -75%, with 20 / 50 / 100% amounts. Your saved choices may differ. A trigger preset can point up or down on either side.
