Simulate & dry run

Which tasks can rehearse first, what a simulation shows, and which ones always trade for real.

Some tasks and tools can simulate: they check the supported parts of a planned run, but send nothing — no funds move, no token is minted. Others trade for real from the moment they start. Know which is which before you press Start.

Where you can simulate#

  • Task forms — Buy, Snipe, Token Sender, Migrate & buy and Scheduled launch have a Simulate switch, on by default: *Check the task without sending transactions or spending funds.*
  • Launches — the wizard's Simulate checks creation; Create sends it. Read the launch result for any creator buy, bundle buyers or task execution that was not tested.
  • Wallets page — Collect, Transfer, Claim cashback, Warm up and Dev warmup have a Dry run box (Transfer's button reads Rehearse send while it's ticked). Convert has Simulate after Review. Close out has one too.
  • Quick deploy — its own Simulate button.

Tasks that always trade for real#

Volume, Bundle, Holder Boost, Hand Switcher, Fake Volume, Anti-Sniper, Pro Trader Boost and the order tasks (Limit order, Ladder, Mirror, DCA, Trailing stop) have no Simulate switch. They send transactions and spend funds as soon as they start — size them small the first time.

A saved setup from before this change shows *This saved setup uses simulation, which is no longer available for this task.* Press Use real trading to keep it, knowing it now spends funds.

Read the launch result

The wizard reports which parts of creation were checked. Attached tasks are not guaranteed to have been simulated; an untested task or bundle buy is called out in the result.

What a simulation shows#

On the task card:

  • Simulate (no funds move) — what the task would do right now: how many wallets will buy or skip, the total, the simulated transaction's result, and per wallet the amount or the reason it's skipped. The ↻ button recomputes it from live balances.
  • Executions — rows marked simulated: checked, nothing left the wallet.
  • Results — per wallet, what happened or why it was skipped.

Numbers are real: a simulation reads live balances and live prices.

Going live#

Switch Simulate off on the form before Create task — or duplicate a rehearsed task and switch it off on the copy.

Live means live

With Simulate off, a task spends from your wallets the moment it starts. Rehearse, read the Simulate section, then go live.

What a simulation can't tell you#

  • Whether a Jito bundle would land (depends on the tip and the network at that moment).
  • Whether outside traders would front-run you.
  • The exact fill of a live swap (slippage still applies live).
