# Live Trading

> Understanding the real-time trading system

# Live Trading

RugPullBot executes real trades on the Solana blockchain using your configured settings and wallets.

<Note>
  Trades run on the chain the coin was created on — Solana or BNB Smart Chain. Balances and PnL figures are shown in the coin's native token (SOL or BNB).
</Note>

## How It Works

The trading engine executes live transactions based on:

* Dev wallet initial buy
* Bundler wallet purchases
* Real market activity
* Your configured settings

## Trading Components

### Price Chart

The system displays real-time candlestick data including:

| Data Point | Description                      |
| ---------- | -------------------------------- |
| Open       | Opening price for the candle     |
| High       | Highest price reached            |
| Low        | Lowest price reached             |
| Close      | Closing price                    |
| Volume     | Trading volume                   |
| Market Cap | Calculated from price and supply |

### Position Tracking

Your position is calculated as:

```
Position = Dev Buy Amount + (Bundler Wallets × Bundler Amount)
```

This determines your:

* Total holding in tokens
* USD value of holdings
* PnL as price moves

### Bonding Curve Progress

The bonding curve shows how much of the total liquidity has been filled:

* **0%**: No liquidity added
* **100%**: Fully bonded (requires \~85 SOL on Pump.fun)

<Note>
  Your dev buy and bundler configuration directly affects bonding curve progress.
</Note>

## Live Statistics

During trading, you see real-time stats:

| Statistic  | Description                      |
| ---------- | -------------------------------- |
| MCAP       | Current market cap               |
| PNL        | Your profit/loss in USD          |
| Multiplier | Return multiple (e.g., "7.1x")   |
| Bonding    | Bonding curve percentage         |
| Holding    | Current value of your position   |
| Bots       | Number of bundler wallets active |
| Holders    | Current holder count             |

## Market Cap Calculation

Market cap is calculated using:

```
Market Cap = Token Price × Total Supply
```

Where token price is derived from:

* Bonding curve position
* Live price data
* Trading activity
