Three kinds of snipe
- Launch sniping: buy as a token is created (e.g. pump.fun, LaunchLab). SolTradingBot documents pump.fun and LaunchLab snipers. docs
- Migration sniping: buy when a bonding-curve token moves to a DEX pool. Axiom documents Migration Actions. docs
- Social sniping: buy when a contract is posted on X. GMGN documents SnipeX. docs
Settings that matter
- Buy amount: a fixed small size.
- Slippage: high slippage gets you filled at terrible prices.
- Priority fee / tip: paid to the network, not refunded if the trade is bad.
- Anti-MEV: reduces sandwich attacks, may cost more.
- Auto-sell: take-profit and stop-loss set before buying.
Why most snipes lose
Early buyers compete with other bots, insiders and the dev. Many new tokens are rugs or honeypots. Check every token with our token safety checker and read our fake-site safety guide.

Signed up on Axiom but haven't traded yet?
The 10% referral discount applies to trades, so nothing happens until the wallet is funded. Deposit SOL to the address Axiom shows, or use Deposit → Buy to buy SOL through Axiom's Coinbase integration (Axiom's docs say up to $500 without KYC). Then make one small market buy and check the fee line before sizing up.
