what slippage should i use for dexscreener new coin

For new coins on DEX Screener, here's a comprehensive guide to slippage settings:

High-Risk New Coins (Just Launched)

• 

  Start with 15-25% - Many new coins have high taxes (5-15% buy/sell) and need higher slippage

• If transactions fail: Increase to 30-40% incrementally

• Check contract: Look for taxes in the contract (common in meme/shitcoins)

Moderate-Risk (Established New Coins)

• 8-15% - For coins that have been live for a few hours/days with some volume

• Check if the token has anti-bot/anti-whale mechanics requiring higher slippage

Always Do This First:

1. Read the contract on DexScreener - look for "tax" or "fee" functions

2. Check recent transactions - see what slippage others used successfully

3. Start small with a test transaction before larger buys

Special Cases:

• Honeypot tokens: No amount of slippage will work - avoid if buys fail repeatedly

• Extreme volatility: During pumps/dumps, use 20%+

• Low liquidity pools: Higher slippage needed (15-30%)

Pro Tips:

• Use limit orders if the DEX supports them (better than market orders)

• Adjust in real-time based on transaction failures

• Consider using: slippage = (tax * 2) + 2-5% as a rule of thumb

Remember: Higher slippage = higher risk of front-running and worse prices. New coins are extremely risky - never invest more than you can afford to lose completely. Many are designed to drain liquidity.
