You can select a predefined amount (`1 SOL`, `0.5`, `0.25`, `0.1`, `0.01`) or enter a **custom** value.

### Choose the Fee Mode

You can define how the transaction fees are split between the validator and network priority.

There are three available modes:

| Mode      | Description                           | Example              |
| --------- | ------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
| 🚀 Turbo  | Very fast execution                   | 0.001 SOL            |
| ✈️ Normal | Balanced, recommended for general use | 0.0005 SOL           |
| ✍️ Custom | You manually set the exact amount     | 0.0001 SOL (example) |

In the interface example, **Custom** is selected.

Fees are split as follows:

* **Validator**: 70%
* **Priority Fee**: 30%

### MEV Protect

### Enable or Disable Simulation

* Enabled: Raven simulates the transaction before sending it
* Disabled: the transaction is sent immediately

> Useful when you want to confirm your configuration in advance or assess network behavior.

***

### 4. Set the Slippage

Slippage defines how much price variation you're willing to tolerate between transaction initiation and execution.

* **Slippage**: your standard tolerance (e.g. 20%)
* **Max Slippage**: the absolute max you'll allow (e.g. 25%)

> Adjust these values depending on volatility and urgency. Higher values may help in fast-moving launches.

### 🔄 How it Works

1. You configure your parameters (amount, fees, slippage)
2. Raven waits for the token address to be available
3. It simulates the transaction if enabled
4. The buy transaction is sent with your settings
