Fees and Routes
In Exchange V3, the default setting for the PacificSwap Smart Router is to use liquidity from V3, V2 (Manta Pacific), as well as the Automated Market Makers (AMM) and market makers on the Manta Pacific. This configuration is designed to efficiently execute trades and secure the most favorable prices for traders.
However, users have the flexibility to customize their trades. They can select which liquidity sources the router should employ and have the option to enable or disable features like multihops and split routing. This level of customization allows traders to tailor their experience to their specific preferences and trading strategies, providing greater control over their trading activities.
To verify the current fee rate and fee amount for your trade
Examine the "Fee" Section: To ascertain the trading charges for your ongoing swap, navigate to the "Fee" section within the swap details.
Determine the Routing Information: To identify the type of pool and the associated fee tier for your trade's routing, review the "Route" section.
Delve Deeper: For a more comprehensive breakdown of the trading route, click on the magnifier icon to access a detailed display of the entire trading process.
Customize liquidity sources
To access the "Customize Routing" interface and choose your preferred liquidity source for trade routing, follow these steps:
Click “Customize Routing” at the bottom of the trading route displays.
Click the cog icon in the swap interface, and then click “Customize Routing” at the bottom.
By default, all of the liquidity sources are enabled, and the Smart Router on PacificSwap is set to take full advantage of all the available liquidity within the platform. This means that when you initiate a trade, the Smart Router will consider all available liquidity sources to provide you with the most optimal trading route. You have the flexibility to customize this routing if desired, as mentioned earlier, to suit your specific trading preferences.
It's important to note that the router on PacificSwap will not route trades between Automated Market Maker (AMM) liquidity pools and Market Maker (MM) market makers. In other words, when your trade is executed by market makers, it will not involve any interaction with AMM liquidity pools. This distinction is relevant for understanding how your trades are processed and which liquidity sources are involved in different trade executions.
You can click the “Reset” button on the top right-hand corner to reset the configurations to default.
Personalize your routing preferences.
At the bottom of the "Customize Routing" interface, you have the ability to customize your routing preferences through two features:
Multihops: Enabling multihops allows tokens to traverse through multiple liquidity pools in a sequence to obtain the best possible deal. This can be especially advantageous for optimizing trade prices. However, if you turn this option off, trades will be restricted to direct swaps, which might result in higher slippage or even potential losses due to less flexibility in routing.
Split Routing: Enabling split routing means that token swaps can be divided into multiple routes to achieve the most favorable outcome. This can enhance trade efficiency. If you disable split routing, trades will be executed using a single route, potentially leading to reduced efficiency or higher slippage.
Customizing these routing preferences allows you to tailor your trades based on your specific trading goals and risk tolerance. It's important to understand how these options affect your trades and choose the most suitable settings for your trading strategy.
When your trade can not be executed due to a customized trading configuration, a warning will appear, you can click “Check your settings” to quickly bring up the“Customize Routing” interface. Or choose “Reset to default” to quickly reset your configurations back to default.
