Spot Overview

spot-overview

Welcome to Jupiter Spot, the most powerful way to trade tokens on Solana.

Jupiter Spot relies on Jupiter Routing, a universal routing algorithm with over 22 AMMs on Solana, intelligently finding the best prices for your trades, and across all the tokens on Solana.

Jupiter Spot is made up of 4 trading methods to help you buy and sell spot assets on Solana:

  1. Swap
  2. Limit Order (LO)
  3. Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)
  4. Value Averaging (VA)

Let's go through them in this overview.

1. Swap​

Swap between any token on Solana, with the best prices and 0 fees with a single click.

  • Jupiter also automatically minimizes slippage and set priority fees for you, while flagging potential concerns.
  • All you have to do is to set the max slippage & priority fees you are willing to pay, before swapping without worry.
  • Detailed walkthrough on how to swap on Jupiter & UI features: How to Swap

2. LO​

Specify a set price to execute your trade, across most tokens on Solana.

  • When your desired price is hit, Jupiter’s Keepers attempt to fill the order for you.
  • Note: You will get filled at exactly the rate you specified. Use our UI to help guide you in setting the right orders!

3. DCA​

Automate regular investments with DCA, with a 0.1% fee per order.

  • Based on your Interval (Weekly, Monthly, etc) and Number of Orders, DCA will swap on your behalf.
  • Automatically retry and minimize priority fees + slippage for DCA orders, without you needing to.

4. VA​

DCA, but price weighted. Buy more when prices are low, and buy less when prices are up.

  • VA maintains a “target portfolio increase”, where it will buy more tokens when prices fall, and less when prices are high, instead of a fixed purchase quantity at every interval.

NOTE FOR LO/DCA/VA
  • When creating a LO/DCA/VA order, your tokens will be transferred out from your wallet and delegated to the Jupiter Program, where product-specific Jupiter Keepers (bots) will execute the transaction on your behalf.
  • They all charge a 0.1% fee, and have a minimum order size of US$5.
