Welcome to the official Solana Sniper Bot documentation. This guide covers everything you need to use the bot effectively — from initial setup to advanced configuration. All bot logic runs client-side in your browser; your private key never leaves your device.
Solana Sniper Bot is a web-based automated Solana trading bot that monitors multiple Solana DEXes simultaneously for newly launched tokens and executes buy orders in under 300ms of token detection. It runs entirely in your browser — no installation, no desktop app, no server-side key storage.
From zero to your first automated snipe in 5 steps.
Use Phantom, Solflare, or any Solana wallet generator to create a new wallet exclusively for bot trading. Never use your main holdings wallet. Fund it with only the SOL you're willing to risk.
Navigate to sniperbotsolana.com/app/. The dashboard loads entirely in your browser — no sign-up or account creation required.
Paste your wallet's base58 private key into the secure key field. The key is held in memory only and is never transmitted. You can use the eye icon to toggle visibility.
Select one of the four presets: Aggressive, Balanced, Conservative, or Safe Mode. For first-time users, Balanced is recommended. See the Strategies section for details.
Enter the SOL amount per snipe (start small — 0.1–0.5 SOL is typical for new users). Click Activate Bot. The token feed will populate in real time as new tokens are detected and evaluated.
The Solana Sniper Bot dashboard is divided into three main areas:
Displays tokens detected in real time. Each token card shows: symbol, mint address (truncated), detection DEX, time since detection, liquidity in SOL, market cap, and the safety score badge (0–10). Cards flash green on buy or red on rejection.
Shows currently held positions with: entry price, current price, unrealized P&L, time held, and progress toward TP/SL levels. Positions auto-update every 2 seconds via RPC price queries.
All bot settings in one place. Changes take effect immediately for the next detected token — no restart required. Settings are auto-saved to your browser's localStorage.
The top status bar shows: bot active/inactive state, connected RPC latency, network slot height, active DEX count, and tokens scanned in the current session.
Solana Sniper Bot provides four preset strategy templates. Selecting a template auto-populates the configuration panel. All values can be manually adjusted after applying a template.
Buys almost every detected token with minimal safety filtering. Designed for users who prefer volume over selectivity and accept frequent losses in exchange for exposure to extreme early movers.
The default and recommended template. Applies moderate safety filters, reasonable slippage, and balanced TP/SL levels. Good starting point for most users of our automated Solana trading bot.
Stricter safety requirements mean fewer tokens qualify, but those that do are significantly less likely to be rugs or honeypots. Suitable for users prioritizing capital preservation over maximum upside.
Maximum protection. Only the most rigorously vetted tokens pass. Very few tokens qualify per session. Best for users new to automated trading or those managing significant capital.
Every token detected by Solana Sniper Bot is scored across 12 dimensions before a buy is considered. Each dimension contributes proportionally to the final 0–10 score. You set the minimum score threshold in the configuration panel.
Solana Sniper Bot monitors five Solana DEXes simultaneously via dedicated RPC subscriptions. Each integration uses program account monitoring, not periodic polling, ensuring sub-second token detection.
Tokens on Pump.fun launch on a bonding curve. Solana Sniper Bot subscribes to the Pump.fun program for new token creation events. Buys happen on the bonding curve before Raydium graduation. Typical detection: 50–150ms after transaction confirmation.
Raydium AMM pool creation events are monitored. Both legacy AMM and CLMM (concentrated liquidity) pool types are supported. This captures Pump.fun graduates as well as direct Raydium launches. Typical detection: 80–200ms.
Bonk.fun is Bonk DAO's memecoin launchpad. Solana Sniper Bot monitors its program for new bonding curve deployments. Integration is identical in structure to Pump.fun. Typical detection: 60–160ms.
Orca's Whirlpool concentrated liquidity pools are monitored for new pool initialization events. Many mid-cap tokens launch here. Typical detection: 90–220ms.
Jupiter is a swap aggregator. Solana Sniper Bot uses Jupiter's routing API for executing sell orders at optimal prices across all integrated DEXes, not just for discovery. All sell transactions are routed through Jupiter by default.
Solana Sniper Bot can send real-time trade notifications to your Telegram account. Setup takes under 2 minutes.
In the bot dashboard, locate the Telegram Handle field in the Trade Parameters section.
Type your Telegram username without the @ symbol. Example: if your username is @cryptotrader, enter cryptotrader.
Open Telegram and search for @SolSniperBot. Send /start to authorize message delivery.
Check: (1) your safety threshold is not set too high — try lowering from 8 to 5; (2) at least one DEX is enabled in settings; (3) your buy amount doesn't exceed your wallet balance; (4) the browser tab is in the foreground (some browsers throttle background tabs).
On newly launched tokens with thin liquidity, price can move significantly in the 300ms between quote and execution. Increase slippage tolerance to 20–30% for Pump.fun and Bonk.fun tokens. If trading more liquid Raydium tokens, 10% should suffice.
The bot requires an active browser session. If you lock your screen, close the laptop lid, or the tab becomes inactive for extended periods, the WebSocket connection may drop. Keep the tab active or use a dedicated device/VM.
Always maintain at least 0.05–0.1 SOL above your trading capital to cover Solana transaction fees. Each buy and sell transaction costs approximately 0.000005 SOL in base fees plus your configured priority fee.
Our default RPC endpoint is shared. During high network load, latency can spike. Check the status page for known RPC issues. If issues persist, contact support for access to premium RPC endpoints.
