Sumo offers quick presets for fast intervention, a custom trade panel for exact one-off trades, and a Swap modal with both **Instant Trade** and **Treasury Swap** tabs. > **Video: Instant Trade Deep Dive** > > A walkthrough of quick presets, custom trades, treasury swaps, and manual execution from the Live Trading workspace. > > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l22QOf5Hp9A ## Quick Trade Presets The Instant Trade panel is available on the [Live Trading](/reporting/live-trading) page. It shows: * **Quick Buy** - preset buttons for instant buy trades * **Quick Sell** - preset buttons for instant sell trades Each preset shows a configured range. When you click a preset, Sumo picks a random amount within that range and submits the trade across the profile's active wallets. ### Presets Each side can have up to six presets. Presets are configured separately for buys and sells in [Profile Settings](/getting-started/profile-settings). | Preset Unit | Description | | ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **USD** | Trade a random dollar value in the configured range. | | **Quote / Native** | Trade a random amount in the profile quote asset, such as SOL, USDC, WETH, or another quote asset. | | **Token** | Trade a random amount of the profile token. | Preset labels reflect the configured unit, for example `$100-$300`, `1-2 SOL`, or `10K-20K TOKEN`. ### Volume Tracking The Instant Trade panel shows cumulative volume for each side: * **Buy Volume** - Total value of instant buys executed * **Sell Volume** - Total value of instant sells executed ## Custom Trade Use **Custom Trade** when you want the speed of Instant Trade but need to choose the exact amount. | Field | Description | | ------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | **Buy / Sell / Convert** | Select the trade direction. **Convert** appears on profiles whose quote is not the wrapped native asset and runs a [Treasury Swap](/treasury/stable-swap) between the native asset and the quote token in the same rows. | | **Amount** | Enter the trade amount. | | **Amount Currency** | Choose whether the amount is in USD, quote/native, or token units. In Convert mode, choose which asset to spend (native or quote); the other side is bought. | | **Wallet** | Choose all active wallets, a wallet group, or an individual wallet. | | **Slippage** | Maximum price movement allowed for the trade. | | **Private Relay** | On supported EVM profiles, routes eligible trades through private relays for MEV protection. | The **Max** button fills the largest available amount for the selected direction, unit, and wallet target when a balance is available. ## Swap Modal For more control over manual trades, use the **Swap** button in the top navigation bar. This opens a swap modal with two tabs. ![Swap Tokens modal](/images/swap-modal.png) ### Instant Trade Tab The **Instant Trade** tab swaps between the profile token and the profile quote/native asset. | Field | Description | | ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **From** | The token you're selling and the amount. Shows your current balance with a **Max** button. | | **To** | The token you're receiving. The estimated output updates as you type. | | **Reverse** | Click the arrow button to flip the swap direction. | | **Wallet** | Choose all active wallets, a wallet group, or an individual wallet. | | **Slippage** | Maximum price movement allowed for the trade. | | **Private Relay** | On supported EVM profiles, routes eligible trades through private relays for MEV protection. | Enter an amount in the **From** field, review the estimated output in the **To** field, and click **Swap** to execute. ## Treasury Swap The **Treasury Swap** tab is available from the same Swap modal on every profile. ![Treasury Swap modal](/images/stable-swap-modal.png) Use Treasury Swap when you want to move between a supported profile asset and a registered stablecoin, or between the native asset and a custom quote token. The available assets depend on the profile's chain and configured token/quote assets. Profiles whose quote is not the wrapped native asset also get a **Convert** mode in the Custom Trade panel that runs the same native-to-quote treasury swap without opening the modal; if your wallets hold the native asset but none of the quote token, a notice above Quick Buy switches the panel to that mode. | Field | Description | | ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **From** | The asset you're selling and the aggregate amount. | | **To** | The asset you're receiving. Market quote output is shown after quoting. | | **Asset Selectors** | Choose the **From** asset first; the **To** list then shows only the assets that pair with it. Picking the current **To** asset as **From** flips the pair. | | **Reverse** | Swap the **From** and **To** assets. | | **Wallet** | Choose all active wallets, a wallet group, or an individual wallet. | | **Mode** | **Pro-rata** spreads the input across wallets proportionally. **Rebalance** uses wallets with more available balance first to even out balances. | | **Slippage** | Maximum price movement allowed for the trade. | | **Private Relay** | On supported EVM profiles, routes eligible trades through private relays for MEV protection. | Enter the amount, choose the wallet target and mode, then click **Treasury Swap**. ## When to Use * **Price support** - Quickly buy when you see a large sell hitting the pool * **Taking profit** - Sell a portion when price spikes * **Precise amounts** - Use Custom Trade or the Swap modal when you need to trade an exact amount rather than a random preset range * **Stablecoin rotation** - Use Treasury Swap to move between supported stablecoin/profile asset pairs * **Testing** - Verify your wallets and pool are working before setting up automated strategies For automated trading, use [Counter Trade](/strategies/counter-trade), [DCA](/strategies/dca), or [Limit Orders](/strategies/limit-orders) instead. - [Counter Trade](/strategies/counter-trade): Automate counter-trading for hands-off price stability. - [Impact Calculator](/strategies/impact-calculator): Estimate the price impact before you trade.
