TL;DR Configuration Table
| Mode | Use Case | Quote Size | Max Slippage | Bundle Type | Exit Trigger |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Stealth | Unknown dev, fresh CA | 2 SOL | 12% | Private Jito | 2.5x or 5 blocks |
| Velocity | Hyped presale w/ KOL list | 4 SOL | 18% | Public bundle | 1.8x TP or -20% SL |
| Rebound | Missed first block, catching wick | 1.5 SOL | 8% | Direct RPC | Trailing stop 12% |
> Pro tip: Run two bots simultaneously—one on a low-latency private RPC (e.g., Helius Turbo) for entry, another on a public RPC dedicated to exits to avoid stuck bundles.
