# Setup FatShield

{% hint style="success" %}

## Fat Shield Security Features **serves as BLOCKERS and SELL TRIGGERS** when a security alert appears and FatBot automatically exclude/sell the detected risky token. 

**BLOCKERS for buying certain tokens**

**SELL TRIGGERS for already purchased tokens**
{% endhint %}

## **Fat Shield - STAY SAFE!** 

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Some protections may block or significantly limit certain strategies or scenarios you desire to happen!** Choose your Fat Shield features wisely! 
{% endhint %}

The Pump.fun environment is full of dangerous tokens, scams, and rug pulls. During the development of Sniping 2.0, we paid great attention to security features. Starting with a few, we’ve ended up with nine to date, with Fat Shield covering seven of them. Make sure you understand their meaning and function, as they can serve as blockers for buying certain tokens and as sell triggers for already purchased tokens when a security alert appears and FatBot automatically sells the detected risky token.

## #1 New Wallet Activity Filter (Fat Shield)&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FmNasFDdhURdRSdJ2OQXy%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=870ec749-1dba-4238-9571-c59948fcaf19" alt=""><figcaption><p>Fat Shield Feature</p></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Prevents trading tokens **heavily targeted by newly created wallets with low on-chain activity.**
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** if a token is traded almost only by newly created wallets funded just moments ago, with virtually no involvement of organic wallets/old wallets/wallets with a lot of previous on-chain activity, a rug pull is highly probable. Why? Because those fresh wallets were likely created by the token’s creator, founder, team, or developers.
{% endhint %}

## #2 Wait Before Buying (Fat Shield)

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FeQvR8beW6RV1TS3sJ6rY%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=7cf17190-9d21-4fc1-9d08-5f35e868bc74" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Bots wait a **few minutes after a token is launched** to reduce buying **tokens without previous price discovery.**&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Do you want to buy as many tokens as possible at the start of trading?** You should **TURN OFF** this protection!
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** A lot of tokens survive only few seconds/minutes. Why? Simple because nobody buys them later, without any solid price discovery. Also, some devs are willing to rug the very first buyer/first buyers, even if the rug is worth only few USD. By activating this feature, FatBot will buy your tokens (if they meet all selected criteria and pass all security checks) not earlier than few minutes after the TGE.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## #3 Creator Wallet Limit Guard&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FxEl2LF6BVDQtPhLIP9jP%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=ef9cdf58-a43f-451f-bf43-5cda1c4202ff" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Stops trading bot from buying tokens if the creator wallet holds too much at the time of launch.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** sometimes the dev/founder (i.e., the person with the right to make the first purchase while creating the Pump.Fun token) buys a large amount of tokens at the very beginning - often worth thousands of USD - instantly becoming a massive individual token holder. **Such holdings can lead to a rug pull**, since they can crash the token’s price with a single transaction, bypassing other security features and still meeting your criteria. That’s why the Creator Wallet Limit Guard is needed: it lowers the risk of a dump by the dev/founder.
{% endhint %}

## #4 Suspicious Bundle Detection (Fat Shield)&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FzDU4JxsuWZQ346FmdBBx%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=1707ce0c-42ce-486e-a8b1-921cfd663cb8" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Stops trading bot from buying tokens if there are suspicious bundle buys.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** sometimes the dev/founder (i.e., the person entitled to make the first purchase when creating the Pump.Fun token) buys a large amount of tokens not at launch but immediately afterward via multiple individual buys, **known as Bundle Buy** - often worth thousands of USD - instantly becoming a major individual holder. On-chain, this appears as a bundle buy (for example, 10 wallets each purchasing 1 SOL at the same time). Such activity is suspicious because it creates big concentration of holdings and **can lead to a rug pull: the dev/founder can execute a bundle sell to crash the price in a single transaction**, making it technically impossible for your Sniping 2.0 bot to execute your desired stop-loss due to Solana chain limitations. That’s why Suspicious Bundle Detection is needed - it lowers the risk of a planned dump/rug.
{% endhint %}

## #5 Auto-Sell After Hold Time (Fat Shield)&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FXQRqwdRH7VgDzdYUpy3c%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=51654a79-a875-4429-973d-7d6c67c97288" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Automatically exits positions after a few minutes to secure gains and reduce exposure to sudden drops.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Is your **strategy based on waiting for big gains, which is expected to occur over a longer period than just a few minutes?** You should **turn off this protection**!
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** This function triggers an **automatic sell a few minutes after your bot purchases any token**. It gives you an auto-sell tool so you don’t have to wait for a Take Profit, Stop Loss, or any other criteria. Why? **Because sometimes tokens are so dead that nothing happens after your purchase**, and no other condition would trigger a sell order.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## #6 Duplicate Ticker Protection (Fat Shield)

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FVMNdrDQSUqymHZZcb6Kl%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=7f4d5812-c492-4d88-b4d3-b6bb455262bd" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Prevents bots from buying newly created tokens with the same name as a token created recently.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** Some scammers launch the same token repeatedly, rug all of them, and then relaunch again after few minutes. If you want to avoid this behavior and stop getting rugged over and over, turn on this protection!&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## #7 Oversized Single Buy Detection (Fat Shield)

<figure><img src="https://2888857233-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FKIrnpzjvFKBXdQlTiGRK%2Fuploads%2FuWBFpQ8Pq7mVizlwsAxm%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=41c85a4e-832c-427d-9e5e-f5736f4e9f70" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}
Bots automatically blacklist tokens with suspiciously large single purchases, which can potentially lead to a rug-pull scenario.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Long story short:** sometimes the dev/founder or anybody else buys a large amount of tokens right after the beginning - often worth thousands of USD - instantly becoming a massive individual token holder. **Such holdings can lead to a rug pull**, since the person can crash the token’s price with a single transaction due to his massive token holdings, bypassing other security features and still meeting your criteria. That’s why the Oversized Single Buy Detection is needed: it lowers the risk of a dump by any great token holder.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## #8 (NEW) Creator Success (Fat Shield)

{% hint style="info" %}
Bots automatically **allow you to buy only tokens created by creators who have previously achieved DEX listing/migration/graduation** with their tokens. Simply enable the Creator Success filter in the Fat Shield settings!
{% endhint %}
