Simple Selling Guide

A comprehensive guide to automated token selling with flexible speed levels on TradePoint.


1. Introduction

Simple Selling is an automated token selling strategy that lets you choose how fast you want to sell your tokens without worrying about setting exact daily amounts. The platform automatically calculates how much to sell each day based on your chosen speed level.

What Makes Simple Selling Different?

Traditional Selling:

  • You set a fixed daily amount (e.g., 1,000 tokens per day)
  • Same amount every day until completed
  • Requires manual calculation of how long it will take

Simple Selling:

  • Choose a speed level: Slow, Medium, or Fast
  • Platform automatically calculates daily sell amount based on your balance
  • Faster levels = higher percentage sold daily + priority in distribution
  • Dynamic adjustment as your balance changes

[!IMPORTANT] Simple Selling is only available for tokens that have been configured by administrators to support this strategy. Check with your admin team if you don't see the option.


2. How Simple Selling Works

The Three-Level System

Simple Selling offers three speed levels to match your selling goals:

LevelBest For
SlowConservative selling, long-term exit
MediumBalanced approach
FastQuick liquidation, urgent selling

How It Works

When you choose a speed level, our team automatically manages:

  • Daily lock amount - A portion of your available balance is locked each day for selling
  • Distribution priority - Faster levels receive higher priority in sales distribution
  • Selling timeline - The speed level determines how quickly your tokens are sold

[!NOTE] The specific percentages and weights for each level are configured and managed by our operations team. You don't need to worry about the calculations - just choose the speed that matches your selling timeline.


3. Step-by-Step Setup

Prerequisites

Before you can use Simple Selling:

  • Token must be configured for Simple Selling by administrators

  3. Review your available balance
  4. Select the token you want to sell

Token Selection

Step 3: Choose Your Speed Level

Select one of three levels based on your selling timeline:

Slow

  • Best for: Long-term gradual exit
  • Locks the smallest daily amount
  • Lower priority in sales distribution
  • Longest timeline to complete

Medium

  • Best for: Balanced approach

Summary


4. Understanding the Daily Process

Morning Lock Phase

Time: Runs automatically each morning (check your platform's cut-off time)

What Happens:

Each day, the platform automatically:

  1. Calculates how much to lock based on your speed level and current balance
  2. Locks that amount for selling
  3. Reduces your available balance accordingly

Key Points:

  • Lock amount is calculated automatically based on your chosen speed level
  • Lock amount decreases as your balance decreases over time
  • Locked tokens cannot be used for other purposes until sold or unlocked
  • Process happens automatically every day

Final Sale Protection

To ensure efficient trading, the platform has minimum sale thresholds:

When your balance gets low:

  • The platform will automatically lock ALL remaining tokens for a final sale
  • This prevents inefficiently small trades
  • Your configuration completes after this final sale

Our team manages these thresholds to ensure:

  • Efficient market execution
  • Optimal trading conditions
  • Complete selling of your tokens

5. Understanding Sales Distribution

How Sales Are Executed

After tokens are locked each morning, our operations team:

  1. Sells the locked tokens on the market throughout the day
  2. Distributes the sale proceeds to users at the end of the day
  3. Returns any unsold tokens to your available balance

Distribution Priority

Users with different speed levels receive different priority in sales distribution:

Fast Level → Highest priority Medium Level → Medium priority Slow Level → Standard priority

This means that if you choose a faster speed level, you'll receive a larger share of the actual sales relative to your locked amount.

Fair Distribution System

Our team manages a fair distribution system that:

  • Prioritizes faster speed levels in allocation
  • Ensures all sold tokens are distributed to users
  • Redistributes any excess to maximize allocations
  • Guarantees no sold tokens are wasted

You don't need to understand the calculation details - our system automatically handles everything to ensure fair and efficient distribution based on your chosen speed level.


6. What Happens to Your Tokens

After Daily Sales

Tokens Sold:

  • Converted to proceeds (usually USDT)
  • Sales fees deducted (check your user configuration)
  • Net proceeds added to your balance
  • Available for withdrawal or trading

Tokens Unsold:

  • Automatically unlocked after distribution
  • Returned to your available balance
  • Can be used immediately
  • Will be locked again next day (if config still active)

Example Daily Flow

Morning (Lock Phase):

  • Platform automatically locks a portion of your available tokens
  • Locked amount is based on your chosen speed level
  • Your available balance decreases by the locked amount

Afternoon (Platform Sells):

  • Our operations team sells locked tokens on the market
  • Sales are executed based on market conditions

Evening (Distribution):

  • You receive your share of the sales proceeds
  • Sales fees are deducted from proceeds
  • Net proceeds are added to your balance
  • Any unsold tokens are automatically unlocked
  • Unlocked tokens return to your available balance

Next Morning:

  • Process repeats with your updated available balance
  • Cycle continues until configuration is stopped or completed

8. Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

Q: Can I change my speed level after creating a configuration?

A: No, you cannot edit an existing configuration. To change levels:

  1. Stop your current configuration
  2. Remove it
  3. Create a new configuration with your desired level

Q: Which level should I choose?

A:

  • Slow: If you want to sell gradually over 7-10 days
  • Medium: If you want balanced selling over 4-6 days
  • Fast: If you need to sell quickly in 3-4 days or want maximum distribution priority

Q: Can I have both Simple Selling and Traditional Selling for the same token?

A: No, you can only have one active configuration per token at a time.

Q: Will my tokens sell at a guaranteed price?

A: No, the platform determines execution price based on market conditions. You cannot set a minimum sale price.

Lock & Distribution Questions

Q: What if I don't have enough balance on a given day?

A: The platform will lock whatever percentage is available. If your balance falls below the minimum threshold, all remaining tokens will be locked for a final sale.

Q: Why did I receive less than my locked amount?

A: Your allocation depends on several factors:

  1. Total amount sold by operations (may be less than total locked by all users)
  2. Your distribution priority based on your chosen speed level
  3. Fair distribution system managed by our operations team

This is normal - unsold tokens are automatically unlocked and returned to your available balance.

Q: What happens if operations don't sell any tokens on a day?

A: Your locked tokens remain locked until the next distribution. If sales don't occur, tokens stay locked for the next day's attempt.

Q: How does the Fast level give me higher priority?

A: Our operations team manages a weighted distribution system where faster speed levels receive higher priority. This means Fast level users receive a larger share of sales relative to their locked amount compared to Slow level users. The exact calculations are managed by our team.

Technical Questions

Q: Can I see how much I've sold so far?

A: Yes, check your:

  • Portfolio balance (proceeds added)
  • Summary page (daily execution details with charts and tables)
  • Sales Config page (shows your active configuration status)

Q: What is the daily cut-off time?

A: This is displayed on the Sales Config page. Lock and distribution processes happen relative to this time. Check with your admin team for the exact time.

Q: What happens to my tokens if I delete my configuration?

A: Any currently locked tokens will be unlocked and returned to your available balance. No sales will occur for future days.

Q: Can administrators change my configuration?

A: Administrators can stop or cancel configurations if needed. Contact support if your configuration status changed unexpectedly.


9. Troubleshooting

Issue: Cannot Select My Token

Possible Causes:

  1. Token not configured for Simple Selling by admin
  2. Existing active configuration for this token
  3. Insufficient available balance
  4. Balance below minimum sale threshold

Solution:

  • Check if you already have a configuration (Active Configurations table)
  • Verify your token balance in Portfolio
  • Contact admin to confirm token supports Simple Selling

Issue: Sales Not Happening

Symptoms:

  • Configuration shows "Active"
  • No sales appearing in Summary page
  • Balance not decreasing

Solutions:

  1. Wait for First Processing

    • If you just activated, wait until after next cut-off time
    • Sales process once daily
  2. Check Available Balance

    • Go to Portfolio
    • Verify tokens are available (not all locked elsewhere)
    • Ensure balance above minimum
  3. Verify Configuration Status

    • Refresh the page
    • Confirm status is "Active" not "Stopped"
    • Check expiration date hasn't passed
  4. Check Operations Activity

    • Platform operations may not have sold tokens that day
    • Market conditions might prevent sales
    • Contact support if no activity after 3 business days

Issue: Receiving Much Less Than Locked Amount

This is Normal!

Your allocation depends on:

  1. Total Amount Sold: Operations may sell less than total locked
  2. Your Weight: Your level determines distribution priority
  3. Other Users: You share sales with all active users

What Happens:

  • Our operations team sells tokens based on market conditions
  • You receive your fair share based on your speed level and locked amount
  • Any unsold tokens are automatically unlocked and returned to your balance

This Is Normal: Your allocation is calculated by our team based on:

  • Your locked amount relative to other users
  • Your distribution priority (speed level)
  • Total market sales volume for the day

Issue: Configuration Stuck or Won't Start

Solutions:

  1. Hard Refresh:

    • Windows: Ctrl+F5
    • Mac: Cmd+Shift+R
  2. Clear Cache:

    • Clear browser cache and cookies
    • Log out and log back in
  3. Try Different Browser:

    • Test with Chrome, Firefox, or Safari
    • Update browser to latest version
  4. Remove and Recreate:

    • Remove stuck configuration
    • Wait 5 minutes
    • Create new configuration
  5. Contact Support:

    • Provide configuration ID
    • Include screenshots
    • Describe steps taken

10. Best Practices

Choosing the Right Level

Use Slow When:

  • You want to minimize market impact
  • You have time and prefer gradual selling
  • You're not concerned about distribution priority

Use Medium When:

  • You want balanced speed and priority
  • You're unsure which level to choose
  • You want moderate selling pace

Use Fast When:

  • You need to sell quickly
  • You want maximum distribution priority
  • You're willing to sell larger percentages daily

Timing Your Setup

Before Cut-Off Time:

  • Set up configurations before daily cut-off
  • Ensures sales begin same day
  • Check platform cut-off time display

Monitor First Few Days:

  • Watch how much gets sold daily
  • Verify your allocations match expectations
  • Adjust level if needed (requires recreating config)

Managing Expectations

Sales Are Not Guaranteed:

  • Platform sells based on market conditions
  • Actual daily sales may vary
  • Your allocation depends on total sales volume

Distribution Is Weighted:

  • Higher levels get priority
  • Your share depends on all active users
  • Redistribution ensures fairness

Unsold Tokens Are Unlocked:

  • You don't lose unsold tokens
  • They return to available balance
  • Will be locked again next day if config active
