# Bots: rules you pick Buy on a schedule, buy dips, protect a position, trail a stop, take profits in steps, trade a range. Each one works inside the caps you set and runs while the wallet is open. New bots start on paper, so you see what one would have done before it spends anything. [Get TOLLkit Wallet](/wallet/#get) [Or let Autopilot pick](/wallet/#autopilot) ## Six rules to pick from Plain rule-based bots, with no AI involved. You see every setting before a bot starts. ![A long chain of punched cards laced together with string, hanging from the top of a Jacquard loom in a museum.](/assets/found/jacquard-loom-cards.jpg) A Jacquard loom weaves only what its punched cards tell it to.

Drag its lines on the chart to set it up, and replay it over the last 30 days of prices before it starts. 15 s between price checks while the wallet is open 30 days of prices to replay a bot over before it starts 0.5% swap fee, the same as any swap - Each bot shows its trades, failures and result, on a price chart that marks where it buys and sells. - It trades inside your caps: a most-per-swap, a most-per-day and a slippage cap. Changing them needs your password. - Bots run while the wallet is open. Sending funds out needs your password every time, so a bot can’t move money out of the wallet. ![The Bots tab: two of four bots running, their combined result and next move, and a Buy the dip bot on ETH with a price chart showing its buy and take-profit lines and the trade it made.](/assets/site/bots.webp) ![Two women in uniform in front of a wall-sized stock board: one reads a strip of ticker tape, the other stands on a step posting prices under the tickers.](/assets/found/girls-operate-stock-boards-at-waldorf-astoria.jpg) Results posted by hand: ticker operators at the stock board of the Waldorf-Astoria, New York, 1918.

Every half hour Autopilot reads prices, funding, news and Fear & Greed, tests every strategy on paper first, and goes live only once it beat holding USDC after fees. It writes down its reasons for every change. Autopilot is coming soon. Each decision costs $0.005 in USDC, only when the market moved: about $1 to $3 a month.
