Going Live
Live is armed per task and never by default. Arming is a deliberate step with the evidence in front of you, and a live task spends real SOL from your wallet on its next copies.
Before going live
- Paper history. At least the configured number of closed paper rounds, 10 by default. Shows e.g. “7 of 10 closed paper rounds”.
- Profitable in paper. Realized paper P&L across those rounds is above zero.
- Trades detected in time. The 95th-percentile arrival delay is within the arrival limit, 4 seconds by default.
- Every holding priced. Each open paper holding has a live pool price.
- Live execution available. Setup is complete, Explore Mode is off, force stop is clear, and copy processing is on.
The panel sits on the task's Overview tab. The first four checks are evidence for your decision; only Live execution available can prevent arming.
The Arm dialog
Arm live copyingrepeats the readiness checks and shows the task's real exposure and exit rules. Arm live stays disabled until you tick every acknowledgement:
- The task can spend up to its remaining budget from your wallet, at most its per-trade cap per copy.
- Live copies pay real network fees and slippage, and paper results do not promise live results.
- When any readiness check has not passed, one more: arm this task anyway.
When live execution is unavailable the dialog shows why instead of the acknowledgements. Keep Paper closes it without changing anything.
Returning to Paper
Return to Paperin the workspace asks once, then the task's new copies are simulated again without spending SOL. Resuming copy processing while live tasks exist also asks first, because they will submit real swaps the next time their wallets trade.
