Solana Dip Sniper
The Solana Dip Sniper watches the tokens you choose. When a large sell knocks one of them well below its recent high, and the sell doesn't look like the creator or the pool's money leaving, the bot buys the dip. It can wait for a rebound first. Then it sells by your rules.
It suits people who already follow some tokens and want to buy them cheaper after a big seller has passed. A dip can always be the start of a longer fall.
Set it up
- Deploy the bot. Choose the Solana Dip Sniper on allenhark.com/bots and pay. Your server is set up and your bot wallet is created on it; Quick start shows each screen.
- Fill your watchlist with the tokens to watch (below), and pick a starter or a Style.
- Practise first. The bot starts in practice: it buys real dips with virtual SOL and nothing is sent. Fills count the pool's fee, slippage for your size and the network fee.
- Add SOL and go live. Send SOL to your bot wallet from Wallet, then press Go live and confirm with your PIN.
Your watchlist
The Solana Dip Sniper only ever buys tokens on your watchlist. Paste token contract addresses on the Strategy page, one or several at a time. The bot follows each token on every pool it trades on, and keeps following it after it graduates from its launchpad.
The watchlist holds 100 tokens by default; AllenHark can set a different limit for your deployment, and the page shows how many you have, for example "12 of 100".
When the list is full, an add is refused with "Your watchlist is full", and nothing is added: remove a token to add another, or ask support if you need more room. An add of several tokens is all or nothing, so if only some would fit, none are added and the page says how many more fit. A token listed twice, or an address that isn't a token's, is refused too.
How it works
1. It watches for a large sell
For each token on your watchlist, the bot follows the trades on its pools through the AllenHark market feed. A dip starts with a large sell: at least the SOL you set, or at least the share of the pool's SOL you set. After that sell, the price must be at least your Price fell at least below its high over the recent window.
If the market feed is down, the bot buys nothing until it is back. Your open positions keep being priced over RPC, so their exits still work.
2. It checks the guards
A dip is skipped when it looks like trouble rather than a bargain:
| Guard | Skips the dip when… |
|---|---|
| Creator's own sell | The seller is the token's creator. |
| Pool draining | The pool's SOL fell more than you allow from its high: money leaving, not a dip. |
| Sells in a row | There have been too many sells in a row. |
| Wait before buying again | The bot bought this token too recently. |
| Buys per token per day | It has already bought this token as often as you allow today. |
| Pool size | The pool holds less SOL than you set. |
| Blocklist and your limits | The token or creator is blocked, or you're at your budget, most positions at once or daily loss limit. |
Every skip shows on the bot's page with its reason in plain words.
3. It can wait for a rebound
Wait for a rebound has three choices:
- No, buy the dip: buy right after the large sell.
- After a few buys: wait until the number of buys you set follow the dip.
- After the price ticks up: wait until the price rises the amount you set from the dip's low.
A dip with no rebound in the time you allow is dropped. The guards are checked again when the rebound comes.
4. It buys
It spends your buy size, with a limit on how far the price may move between deciding and buying. If the price moves further, the buy doesn't go through and you pay only the network fee.
5. It sells by your rules
The Solana Graduation, MC Breakout and Dip Snipers share the same exits, checked every time the price moves:
- Stop loss. If the trade is down to your stop loss (for example −30 %), it sells everything.
- Protect gains on the way down. Once a trade is up, it sells a share for each step the price drops from its peak, and everything at the bottom of the band.
- Take profit on the way up. It sells a share for each step profit climbs through a band.
- Time limit. It sells what's left after the time you set.
- Creator sold. It sells everything if the token's creator sells while the bot holds it (Sell when the creator sells, which you can turn off).
If the pool can't take a sell, it sells through a swap aggregator instead (on by default, in Advanced).
Your settings, grouped
Simple mode has the controls most people need: budget, spend per token, take profit, stop loss, daily loss limit, launchpads and pools, Style, and Speed (Normal, Fast or Fastest: the priority fee and slippage). Style sets how deep a dip must be, the pool-draining and sells-in-a-row guards, whether it waits for a rebound, how many tokens it holds at once, the protect-gains band and the time limit:
| Style | Solana Dip Sniper |
|---|---|
| Safer | Only deep dips that tick back up first, never when the pool is draining. |
| Balanced | Dips of 15 % or more after a large sell, with the rug guards on. |
| Riskier | Smaller dips and looser guards: more buys, more risk. |
The starters set every Simple control at once:
| Starter | What it does |
|---|---|
| Cautious | Only deep dips that tick back up first. Sells everything at 1.5x or 20 % down. |
| Balanced | Dips of 15 % or more with the rug guards on. Sells half at 2x. |
| Aggressive | Smaller dips and looser guards. Sells half at 3x. More reward, more risk. |
Expert settings has every setting, in these groups:
- Buying: buy size, most positions at once, budget, daily loss limit, launchpads and pools, and (Advanced) your time zone and the practice balance.
- When it buys: what counts as a large sell, how far the price must fall, the rebound, and (Advanced) the window and the rebound's details.
- Guards: the guards in the table above.
- Watchlist: your tokens.
- Selling: stop loss, the bands, selling when the creator sells, the time limit and the aggregator.
- Blocklist: creators and tokens it never buys.
- Execution: the priority fee, slippage, the relay tip and your own fast senders.
The Solana Dip Sniper settings reference lists every setting with its range and starting value.
Risks
- A dip can keep falling. The guards skip the clearest signs of a rug, but a token can pass them and still go lower, or to zero.
- Large holders sell in parts. The large sell you bought after may be the first of several.
- Waiting for a rebound costs price. It skips more falling knives, and buys higher when the rebound is real.
- Practice is a guide, not a forecast. Practice counts fees and slippage, but not how other traders would have reacted to your live buys.
Only trade with SOL you can afford to lose. See the Risk disclosure.
