scale-balancedWhat is Scaling Buy Size strategy?

The Scaling Buy Size strategy allows you to dynamically adjust your buy amounts based on the behavior of the wallet you are mirroring. Instead of using a fixed buy amount for every transaction, OdinBot calculates your entry size as a percentage of the mirror's trade, ensuring you scale up or down in proportion to their position sizing.

Example 1

Goal: You want to maintain a fixed trade size of 0.5 SOL, but you only want to enter a trade if the mirror wallet commits at least 5 SOL. If they buy less than 5 SOL, you want to ignore the trade.

Configuration:

  • Minimum Trade Size: 0.4999 SOL

  • Multiplier: 10%

  • Max Trade Size: 0.5 SOL

How it works:

  1. Scenario A (Mirror buys 5 SOL):

    • Calculation: 5 SOL × 10% = 0.5 SOL.

    • Result: The amount meets your Minimum (0.4999) and equals your Max (0.5). The bot buys 0.5 SOL.

  2. Scenario B (Mirror buys 4 SOL):

    • Calculation: 4 SOL × 10% = 0.4 SOL.

    • Result: The amount is below your Minimum (0.4999). The bot skips the trade.

  3. Scenario C (Mirror buys 100 SOL):

    • Calculation: 100 SOL × 10% = 10 SOL.

    • Result: The amount exceeds your Max (0.5). The bot buys 0.5 SOL (capped).

Example 2

Goal: You are following a "whale" wallet that swings with large amounts. You want to execute trades exactly proportional to theirs (1% of their size) to manage risk, but you never want to risk more than 1 SOL per trade, regardless of how much they spend.

Configuration:

  • Minimum Trade Size: 0.01 SOL

  • Multiplier: 1%

  • Max Trade Size: 1.0 SOL

How it works:

  • If the whale buys 10 SOL, your bot buys 0.1 SOL (1%).

  • If the whale buys 50 SOL, your bot buys 0.5 SOL (1%).

  • If the whale buys 200 SOL, the calculated amount is 2 SOL (1%), but the bot caps it at your Max. The bot buys 1.0 SOL.

Example 3

Goal: You are copying a "degen" wallet that trades with small amounts (e.g., 0.1 SOL). You want to trade heavier than them to maximize returns on their picks, buying 2x whatever they buy, but ensuring you don't buy dust.

Configuration:

  • Minimum Trade Size: 0.05 SOL

  • Multiplier: 200%

  • Max Trade Size: 2.0 SOL

How it works:

  • If the wallet buys 0.1 SOL, your bot buys 0.2 SOL (200%).

  • If the wallet buys 0.02 SOL, the calculated amount is 0.04 SOL. This is below your Minimum (0.05). The bot skips the trade.
