Advanced Trading & Execution FAQ

Supported Order Types

The Altcoinist trade execution layer supports multiple advanced order types designed for automated and efficient trade execution:

  • Market Orders – Execute immediately at the best available price.

  • Limit Orders – Execute only when the specified target price is reached or improved upon.

  • Stop Loss / Take Profit Orders – Automatically trigger execution when price thresholds are met, allowing for risk management and profit capture.

  • TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price) Orders – Split a larger trade into smaller transactions over a defined time period to minimize slippage and reduce market impact.

  • Cross-Chain Swaps – Enables seamless asset movement and trade execution across supported blockchains.

These order types are available in both wallet mode and within Pro Mode vaults, depending on chain and feature availability.

Execution and Routing

The system aggregates liquidity across 100+ decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and 15+ off-chain liquidity providers (PMMs) to ensure best execution.

Smart order routing dynamically evaluates:

  • Available liquidity depth across venues

  • Price impact and slippage parameters

  • Gas and latency optimization per chain

The routing layer continuously monitors pricing data to determine the most efficient trade path while mitigating MEV (miner extractable value) risks.

Altcoinist Pro Mode

When Pro Mode is enabled, the user’s wallet becomes the signer for a dedicated smart contract vault (Pro Mode account). This vault acts as an on-chain execution environment that enables advanced trading and automation features while keeping user custody intact.

Key characteristics:

  • Each user operates a personal smart contract vault, controlled by their own wallet as the authorized signer.

  • Only the signer wallet has permission to withdraw assets or authorize any movement of funds from the vault.

  • The vault supports automated order triggers, including stop loss, take profit, and TWAP scheduling.

  • Transactions are executed gaslessly through relayers or keepers, reducing manual signing and simplifying multi-step strategies.

  • All trading data — including open orders, execution history, and PnL — is tracked at the vault level.

  • One-time token approvals apply across all strategies within the vault, removing repetitive confirmations.

Pro Mode is intended for advanced users who require automation, precision execution, and trading strategy management.

Automation and Latency Handling

The execution engine monitors on-chain and off-chain data feeds in real time. It processes incoming price updates and order events at high frequency to:

  • Trigger conditional orders as soon as market conditions are met.

  • Batch or split orders intelligently based on predefined parameters.

  • Minimize execution delays caused by network congestion or gas spikes.

This allows for reliable automated order handling without requiring constant user input.

Gas and Chain Abstraction

The system supports gas abstraction and multi-chain operation.

  • Users are not required to hold native gas tokens for every supported chain.

  • Transactions can be executed via gasless relayers, abstracting signing and submission.

  • A one-time token approval enables subsequent trades without repeated authorization prompts.

Supported environments include EVM-based chains (Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Avalanche, BNB Chain, Polygon, etc.) and SVM chains (e.g., Solana).

Supported Networks

The trade execution system operates across multiple blockchain environments:

  • EVM Chains: Ethereum, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Polygon, BNB Chain, HyperEVM, and others.

  • SVM Chains: Solana and compatible subnets.

Feature availability (e.g., TWAP, vaults, or gasless execution) may vary by chain depending on deployed infrastructure.

Security and Auditing
  • All smart contracts within the execution layer have undergone third-party security audits.

  • The system maintains on-chain verifiability for vault creation, order placement, and execution.

  • Operational transparency allows independent verification of any trade or transaction event.
