Buy presets
Buy presets are the quick amount buttons shown on the buy panel. Tap a preset in settings to change its value, or reset the full preset set to defaults.
Degen mode
Degen mode is a fast-execution mode for users who intentionally want fewer protections.Auto TP/SL
Auto TP/SL automatically creates matching limit orders for future market buys across supported chains. When enabled, every new market buy can attach a take-profit order, a stop-loss order, or both.
- Auto take profit
- Auto stop loss
Auto take profit creates a sell order once the token moves up by your selected profit percentage.In the example below, Cove sells 50% of the position when the token is up 100%.
Auto TP/SL applies to future market buys. Existing positions are not changed retroactively.
Execution protection
These options help keep execution predictable during volatile markets and unusual liquidity conditions.Slippage
Slippage
Slippage is the maximum price movement Cove will tolerate between submission and execution.Use presets such as 10%, 20%, 40%, or 80%, or set a custom value. The custom range is 1% to 100% with up to 2 decimals.
Liquidity protection
Liquidity protection
Liquidity protection blocks buys that would consume too much of the token’s reported liquidity pool.Cove blocks a trade when your buy is more than roughly 33% of the pool’s reported liquidity. For example, a $30 pool blocks buys above $10.
Auto-adjust max buy
Auto-adjust max buy
Auto-adjust max buy reduces your order to the contract’s maximum allowed buy amount when you try to buy more than the token allows.
Gas surplus budget
Gas surplus budget
Gas surplus budget lets Cove cover network fees above the sponsored cap up to a per-trade limit from your USDC balance instead of failing the trade.Set it to Off to always ask before charging surplus. Presets include $1, $3, $5, $10, and custom.
Group link controls
Group link controls define how shared buy and sell links behave when someone opens them from a group, channel, or external post.- Group buys
- Group sells
Group buy sets the maximum amount that can execute instantly from a shared group buy link.Trades above your limit ask for confirmation first. Set the option to Off to disable group buys entirely.
Position panel settings

| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Sell 100% in Positions | Shows a one-tap full-sell action from the Positions panel |
