Slippage is 50% for buying

Your transaction is getting dropped most likely to:

• The Solana node endpoint you use not being a SwQoS. Eg See Solana Trader nodes with Warp transactions <— these cost $0.15 per tx so unless you have everything figured out and you are all set up for sniping, be aware of the cost if you are learning the different setups & experimenting
• The priority fees not high enough
• Or a combination of both

Hey there, starting from the next week (week of March 10) we'll be rolling out updates to the bot v2 based on the feedback and the reported issues, including updating to the latest libs, better error handling etc. We are already actively working on it.

That'll be in a separate branch.

So for this particular issue, I suggest trying out a new version in a separate branch. We'll let you know.

Also, check out the readme for the roadmap that I just added in the README file for the full overview.

⚠ The completely refactored bot has been merged into the main branch. Please use the updated bot.

Among others, the updated bot has so-called extreme fast mode - there are no additional RPC calls between token detection and sending a buy transaction. Creating ATA is incorporated into the buy transaction. Feel free to test it.

Closing this issue since it refers to the outdated code.
