Step by step
- Open your position. On BLIX, your portfolio and every coin's page show what you hold, its live value and what it would really fetch (sellable value).
- Choose how much. Sell buttons sell a share of the position; the shares are yours to set in the trade presets.
- Check slippage. In a fast drop a sell with tight slippage fails while the price keeps falling. 15–20% is common for busy coins.
- Send it. The swap goes straight to the pump.fun curve if the coin has not migrated, or through Jupiter if it has, with a priority fee that matches the coin.
When to sell
- At 2x, take your cost out. What is left cannot lose you money.
- Into strength, not weakness. Selling into a green candle gets a better price than selling into the dump after it.
- When the reason breaks. The dev sold, a bundle is dumping, the smart wallets left, the narrative died.
- At a price you set in advance. A take profit placed when you buy is the one you actually take.
Selling a coin with little liquidity
If your position is a big share of the pool, one sell will crash the price and fill far below the quote. Sell in pieces, into buys, and watch the sellable value rather than the marked value: it is what the position is worth.
When a coin won't sell
If the token's freeze authority is still active, the creator can freeze your tokens so they cannot move: a honeypot. If liquidity was pulled, there is nothing to sell into. Both can be checked before you buy; see the honeypot checker.
Profit, history and a card to share
Your portfolio shows open positions with live profit, today's and lifetime results, and every closed trade with its entry and exit. Any position can be turned into a PnL card to post. The same view exists for any wallet on Solana, not only yours.
The BLIX community
Every account comes with the BLIX Discord: the people trading on the terminal, the narratives as they form, feature drops before they are announced, and the team answering questions. Join the Discord once you have signed up.

Frequently asked questions
How do I sell a meme coin on Solana?
Open the position on a terminal or in your wallet, choose how much, set slippage for how fast the price is moving, and swap the token back to SOL.
Why can't I sell my meme coin?
Usually slippage too tight in a falling market. If it never works, the token may have an active freeze authority (a honeypot) or no liquidity left.
When should I take profit on a meme coin?
A common rule: sell half at 2x so the rest is free, then sell in steps or trail a stop. Decide it when you buy.
Should I sell all at once?
On a thin coin, no: sell in pieces into buys. Your own sell can move the price a lot.
