⚡ Quick Buy/Quick Sell: Take Full Control of Your Trades

Photon’s Quick Buy and Quick Sell features are designed to give you complete control over your trading experience, letting you fine-tune every aspect of your transaction for speed, efficiency, and protection. Here’s a breakdown of the customizable settings available to you:

🔄 Slippage Tolerance

Slippage determines how much the execution price of a trade can differ from the expected price due to market volatility.

• Negative Slippage Example: You attempt to buy $XYZ at $10.00, but your order executes at $10.50. This reduces your buying power.

• Positive Slippage Example: You place an order at $10.00, but it executes at $9.50. You gain more tokens for less money.

Set your slippage carefully to balance execution speed and price accuracy.

⛽ Max Gas Limit

This defines the maximum gas you’re willing to spend on a transaction.
If a pending transaction exceeds this threshold, it will not be processed.
It acts as a cost safeguard to prevent unexpected spikes in gas fees.

🚀 Priority Fee (Tip to Validators)

This is an extra fee added to incentivize Ethereum validators (miners) to prioritize your transaction over others.
A higher priority fee means faster confirmation, especially during network congestion.

🛡️ Private Transaction Mode (Enabled by Default for Quick Buy)

When this is on:

• Your trade is routed through a private validator, not broadcasted to the public mempool.

• Protects against sandwich attacks and front-running.

• Helps reduce gas costs on failed trades, since failed transactions in private mode don’t consume gas.

🎯 Bribery Amount (For Private Transactions Only)

Set a custom ETH bribe to the block builder for placing your transaction at the front of the line.

• Helps secure the best price by accelerating execution.

• No bribe is deducted if the transaction fails—zero risk on failure.

🔍 Summary: Priority Fee vs. Bribery

Choose your transaction type based on your need for speed, privacy, and protection against market manipulation.
