# Sell panel

After this, you'll be able to sell in whatever unit you think in, across all your wallets at once.

The sell panel sells a token you already hold. You size the sell in the unit that matches your intent and choose which wallets sell.

## Sizing your sell [#sizing-your-sell]

You size a sell four ways. Pick the one that matches how you're thinking about the exit:

- **Percent of supply**: a percentage of the token's total supply, capped at what you hold. The quick buttons are small fractions, 0.1%, 0.25%, 0.5% and 1%, plus a 100% button that sells your entire balance.
- **Token amount**: a fixed number of tokens.
- **Native value**: enough tokens to return a set amount of the chain's native coin (SOL on Solana).
- **USD value**: enough tokens to return a set amount in US dollars.

The panel converts whatever you enter into an on-chain token amount at sell time, using the live price.

The percent is a share of the token's whole supply, not a share of your bag. Click 1% and you sell 1% of the total supply. If 1% of supply is more than you hold, you sell your entire balance instead. The 100% button always sells everything you hold.

This is built for supply-aware selling. A dev holding a large share of supply moves a small, controlled slice with each click. A small holder clicking a low percent may still clear most or all of their bag, because the cap sells no more than you hold.

## Selling across wallets [#selling-across-wallets]

You sell from several wallets in one action. The panel splits your sized sell across the wallets you select, so a large position leaves from many wallets at once instead of one.

## Before you click [#before-you-click]

Market sells fire on click with no popup, so check the unit and size before you click.

Sells run one at a time per token: while one is running, a second is refused, so wait for the first to finish. A sell from a single wallet's row is limited the same way, per wallet.

## Per-sell slippage [#per-sell-slippage]

Slippage on a sell is separate from slippage on a buy, so your sell tolerance never inherits from the buy side. Raise it for a token moving fast so the sell still lands; keep it tighter on a stable token to avoid a bad fill.

## Where the proceeds go [#where-the-proceeds-go]

Sale proceeds stay in the wallets that sold. Selling is free; the 5% platform fee is charged when the proceeds leave, for example when you withdraw them. See [Fees](https://ballistic.app/docs/reference/fees/).

## What can go wrong [#what-can-go-wrong]

| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| You sold less or more than you meant to | Unit mix-up: you were in percent when you meant token amount, or in USD when you meant percent | Check the sell unit before you fire. Percent, token amount, native value and USD each mean a different size. |
| The sell failed | Slippage is too low for how fast the token is moving, so the price leaves your tolerance before the sell lands | Raise the sell slippage. Go higher for a fast mover, tighter for a stable token. |
| A "1000-token" sell was not "$1000" | Token count is not USD value: 1000 tokens is a quantity, not a dollar figure | Switch the sell unit to USD to size by dollars. |
| A small percent sell cleared your whole bag | The sell percent is a share of the token's total supply, not your holdings, and that share was more than you hold | Expected. To exit a set size, sell by token amount, native value or USD instead of percent. |
| "A sell of this token is already running" | Another sell of this token is still in flight | Wait for it to finish, then sell again. |
