Solana MC Breakout Sniper
The Solana MC Breakout Sniper buys a token when its market cap rises through the level you set, for example $30,000, if the trading behind the move passes your filters. Then it sells by your rules, and it can sell everything at a second market cap you choose.
It suits people who want a clear rule ("buy when it crosses this size, with buyers behind it") instead of buying at launch. Crossing a level says nothing about where a token goes next: many turn back right after.
Set it up
- Deploy the bot. Choose the Solana MC Breakout 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.
- Choose what it watches and the market cap to cross, then a starter or a Style.
- Practise first. The bot starts in practice: it buys real crossings 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.
Which tokens it watches
Which tokens it watches has three choices:
- New launches: each new launch on the launchpads you chose, for a while after it starts.
- Just graduated: each pool a graduation makes, for a while after it opens.
- My watchlist: only the tokens you list, by contract address.
The launchpads and pools it can trade are Pump.fun, Raydium LaunchLab and its brands (Bonk.fun, StonkFun, Surge), Meteora DBC and its brands (Bags, Moonshot, Jupiter Studio, Believe), PumpSwap, Raydium CPMM and Meteora DAMM v2. Leaving the list empty means all of them.
The watchlist
With My watchlist, you paste token contract addresses on the Strategy page, one or several at a time. 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. The bot refuses My watchlist with an empty watchlist, so add at least one token first.
How it works
1. It follows the market cap
Crossings come from the AllenHark market feed, or the bot works them out itself from the pools' prices (Where crossings come from, Advanced). The market cap is in US dollars or SOL, as you choose.
With trading filters on, the bot starts following a token's trades once it is part of the way to your level (Start watching trades at, Advanced), so the filters have a full window of trades to judge when the level is crossed.
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 crossing
A crossing upward is bought only if it passes every filter you have on:
| Filter | In plain words |
|---|---|
| Only within | The crossing happened soon enough after the token launched. A token launched before the bot started has no known age, so this filter skips it. |
| Token age | The token is at least, and at most, as old as you set (Advanced). |
| Buying share | Enough of the SOL traded over the last window was buying, not selling. |
| Volume | Enough SOL was traded over the window, in total and against the market cap. |
| Pool size | The pool holds at least the SOL you set. |
| Blocklist | The creator and the token aren't on your blocklist. |
| Your limits | You're under your budget and your most positions at once, and today's loss limit hasn't been reached. |
Each filter can be turned off. A token is bought once at most. Every skip shows on the bot's page with its reason in plain words.
3. 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.
4. 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.
- Market cap target. It sells everything when the market cap reaches Sell everything at market cap, if you set one. It must be above the level it buys at.
- 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, Style, and Speed (Normal, Fast or Fastest: the priority fee and slippage). Style sets the buying share and volume it needs, how soon after launch a crossing counts, how many tokens it holds at once, the protect-gains band and the time limit:
| Style | Solana MC Breakout Sniper |
|---|---|
| Safer | Only crossings with strong buying and volume behind them. |
| Balanced | Most of the trading buying and some volume behind the crossing. |
| Riskier | Looser filters, more tokens at once and longer holds. |
The starters set every Simple control at once:
| Starter | What it does |
|---|---|
| Cautious | Only crossings with strong buying. Sells everything at 1.5x or 20 % down. |
| Balanced | Sells half at 2x and lets the rest ride, everything at 30 % down. |
| Aggressive | Looser filters and bigger buys. 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: which tokens it watches, the market cap to cross and its unit, and (Advanced) where crossings come from and how many tokens it follows at once, for how long.
- Filters: how soon after launch, the token's age, the window and the buying share, volume and pool size measured over it.
- Watchlist: your tokens, for My watchlist.
- Selling: stop loss, the bands, the market cap target, 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 MC Breakout Sniper settings reference lists every setting with its range and starting value.
Risks
- Round numbers draw a crowd. Other traders and bots watch the same levels, and some sell into the buyers a crossing brings in.
- Buying can be faked. A burst of buys from wallets that work together can pass the buying-share and volume filters and then reverse.
- New tokens can still go to zero after passing every filter, or become hard to sell.
- Practice is a guide, not a forecast. Practice counts fees and slippage, but not how other bots would have reacted to your live buys.
Only trade with SOL you can afford to lose. See the Risk disclosure.
