# AI Trading & Bots on Dexana Dexana offers AI‑powered trading bots that help you automate strategies on Solana while you stay in control of your funds. This guide covers: * Types of Dexana bots * How to enable and configure them * How to monitor performance and manage risk *** ## 1. What Are Dexana Trading Bots? Dexana bots are automated strategies that run on top of Solana DEX liquidity. They: * Analyze market data using AI/ML models (trend, volatility, sentiment) * Turn signals into trades automatically (buys, sells, rebalances) * Respect your allocations and risk settings You always keep custody of your funds. Bots only initiate transactions that you approve via your connected wallet. *** ## 2. Bot Types ### 2.1 Grid Trading Bot * Designed for **sideways / ranging markets** * Places a ladder of buy and sell orders within a price range * Buys on dips to grid levels, sells on rebounds **Best for:** assets that oscillate within a band. ### 2.2 DCA (Dollar‑Cost Averaging) Bot * Buys a target asset at regular intervals * Reduces timing risk by spreading entries over time * Lets you accumulate SOL, DEX, or other tokens passively **Best for:** long‑term accumulation. ### 2.3 Trend‑Following Bot * Uses AI signals to detect uptrends and downtrends * Enters when the model sees an edge, exits when trend weakens * Can adjust position size based on conviction and volatility **Best for:** trending markets. ### 2.4 Advanced / Arbitrage Bots (Future) * Arbitrage between pools or routes * Market‑making strategies within defined risk limits * Likely reserved for Premium/Pro tiers *** ## 3. Access Requirements Depending on your plan: * **Free tier** – Limited access or caps on allocation * **Premium/Pro** – More bots, higher limits, advanced controls * **Institutional** – Custom strategies and dedicated support In the UI, premium‑only strategies are clearly labeled. After you upgrade and log in, they unlock automatically. *** ## 4. Enabling a Bot ### 4.1 Navigate to Bots 1. Open the Dexana app. 2. Connect your wallet. 3. Go to **Trading Bot** or **Live Bots** in the navigation. You’ll see a list of bots with: * Strategy type * Supported pairs (e.g. SOL/USDC, DEX/USDC) * Historical performance metrics (win rate, profit, trades) ### 4.2 Choose a Strategy Click a bot card to open its details: * Strategy explanation * Risk level (Conservative / Balanced / Aggressive) * Historical PnL and drawdowns (where available) * Minimum and recommended capital If you accept the risks, click **Enable Bot**. *** ## 5. Configuring a Bot When you enable a bot, you’ll configure: 1. **Pair** – e.g. SOL/USDC, DEX/USDC 2. **Capital allocation** – how much the bot can use 3. **Risk parameters**, such as: * Max drawdown per bot * Take‑profit / stop‑loss * Grid spacing or DCA frequency * Max open trades You’ll then confirm a transaction from your wallet authorizing the bot logic to operate with those parameters. *** ## 6. Monitoring Bot Performance Use the **Bot Dashboard** to track: * Live and cumulative PnL * Win rate and trade count * Open positions * Recent trades (timestamp, side, price, size) You can also see the impact of bots on your overall holdings in the **Portfolio** view. *** ## 7. Managing Risk Dexana provides tools to help you manage risk: * **Pause/Stop bots** at any time * **Adjust parameters** (allocation, thresholds) as market conditions change * **Set hard limits**: * Max daily/weekly loss * Global allocation cap across all bots If a limit is hit, bots can automatically: * Stop opening new trades * Close positions (if configured) * Notify you to review settings *** ## 8. Stopping a Bot To stop a bot: 1. Go to the **Bot Dashboard**. 2. Select the bot. 3. Click **Pause** or **Stop**. 4. Confirm in your wallet if a transaction is required. Depending on settings, positions may be: * Left open to be managed manually, or * Closed by the bot to realize PnL and return to cash. *** ## 9. Fees Bots may involve: * **Subscription fees** – monthly cost per tier * **Performance fees** – a small share of positive PnL for certain strategies (optional) * **Network fees** – Solana transaction fees for each trade (very low) Exact pricing is shown on the **Premium** or **Pricing** page in the app. *** ## 10. Important Disclaimers * Past performance is **not** a guarantee of future results. * AI models can fail, especially in extreme market regimes. * You are responsible for the strategies you enable and your risk exposure. Always start with smaller allocations, and only risk capital you can afford to lose. *** ## 11. Next Steps * Read the **Dexana Whitepaper** to understand the full vision and tokenomics. * Explore the **Launchpad** for early access to new projects. * Join the Dexana community channels for strategy discussions and support. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
