Strategies
Presets that bundle range width, direction, and compounding into one click.
A Strategy is a preset that configures the key automation settings for you, so you can open a sensible position in one click instead of tuning each value. You can always customize afterward from the Manage page.
What a Strategy sets
Each Strategy bundles:
- a range width (how tight or wide your concentrated range is),
- a rebalance direction (typically both-ways), and
- auto-compound on/off.
The presets
Strategies range from tight to wide. As a guide:
| Style | Range | Behavior | Best when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tight / Scalper | narrow | Max fee capture, rebalances often | High-volume pools you expect to chop; you want maximum fee yield and accept more rebalancing |
| Balanced | medium | A middle ground | Most situations; a good default |
| Wide / Earner | wide | Calmer, fewer rebalances | Volatile or trending pairs where you want fewer re-centers and gentler IL |
The exact names and widths are shown in the create dialog. Scout also recommends a Strategy per pool based on its volume and efficiency.
Picking a Strategy
- Tighter earns more fees per dollar while in range, but rebalances more (more gas/slippage) and is more IL-sensitive.
- Wider is lower-maintenance and gentler on IL, but earns less per dollar.
Because the keeper handles re-centering, you can comfortably run tighter Strategies than you could by hand. See Choosing range width and Which automation to use.
Custom
Prefer to set width and direction yourself? Adjust them in the create dialog, or change everything later from the Manage page — Strategies are just convenient starting points.
Strategy sets your width and rebalancing; you still add TP/SL, accumulate, or DCA on top as you like.
