This is the 2nd of a 2 part series exploring the flexible strategies you can deploy on the Liquidity Book AMM.
Understanding the strategies that are accessible to you, will enable you enhance your yield farming efficiency.
Lets explore 👇
🌊📘
Ranged Limit Orders🌊📘
Users can use single-sided one-bin spot liquidity to place "limit orders" outside of the current price.
Once the price reaches these bins, liquidity in them will be converted from one token to another.
Ranged Limit Orders🌊📘
Advantages:
✅Buy/sell tokens at prices you want
✅ Withdraw/change your order at any time
Drawbacks:
❌Doesn't earn fees while inactive
Considerations:
❓ Require withdrawing to prevent converting back
Depeg Bets🌊📘
Spot shape is perfect for providing liquidity for stablecoin pairs, it can also be used to capture fees during minor depegs.
Combining two spot shapes above and below the current price can even allow users to earn from depegs in both directions.
Depeg Bets🌊📘
Advantages:
✅Earn fees from volatility
✅Help contribute to market stability
Drawbacks:
❌Risky if depeg is permanent
Considerations:
❓ Similar to limit orders, this approach earns no fees while inactive
DCA While Earning🌊📘
Combining a one-sided bid-ask shape with uniform distribution can allow you to buy your favourite tokens for cheap if an opportunity arises while continuing to earn fees from swaps around the current price.
DCA While Earning🌊📘
Advantages:
✅Stable fee revenue
✅DCA at selected prices
Drawbacks:
❌Sacrifices some fee performance for the DCA opportunities
Considerations:
❓ If the order fills it needs to be withdrawn
Gradual Ladder Orders🌊📘
Layering multiple spot uniform shapes on top of each other in one direction allows users to gradually scale in and out of positions with market movements.
Gradual Ladder Orders🌊📘
Advantages:
✅Earn fees if the market moves in your favour
✅Passively buy/sell tokens at regular intervals
Drawbacks:
❌Big risk of IL if the market moves against you
Considerations:
❓ Require withdrawing to prevent converting back
Sell/buy Walls🌊📘
Combining normal and uniform shapes can allow liquidity providers to form liquidity "walls".
This way the liquidity is much deeper one side of the price while keeping exposure in case price moves in the opposite direction.
Sell/Buy Walls🌊📘
Advantages:
✅Contribute to price floors while earning fees
✅Less risky than ladder orders approach
Drawbacks:
❌Can result in IL if the price moves beyond the wall
Considerations:
❓ Price movements can result in wall needing rebalancing
That wraps up Part 2 learning series!
With Liquidity Book, you can deploy any strategy of your choosing, simply by constructing the right Liquidity Shape.
If, like many others in this space, you have no idea what these token standards actually mean...Look no further, this thread will unravel this mysterious lingo.
So get your reading glasses on, it's time to learn 👇
#Avalanche and other "smart" blockchains allow developers to code pretty much anything they would want. This allows for unprecedented levels of innovation and creativity.
But it also means that some guidelines are needed for things to be able to interact and work together.
Imagine if Alice and Bob wanted to create their own non-fungible tokens. Without a common pre-agreed standard, they could end up with two very different tokens.
In turn, this would mean that #NFT marketplaces would have to account for both Bob's and Alice's implementations.

Liquidity Book is a next-gen AMM deploying on #Avalanche that introduces a number of new features, such as active and flexible liquidity provisioning.
Understanding the basic strategies offered, will enable you to maximise your yield generating activities.
Lets explore 👇
🌊📘
Liquidity Book comes with unprecedented levels of flexibility.
But with great composability comes great power, and it might be easy to get lost in all the options and possibilities.
Thankfully, Liquidity Book provides four liquidity shape pre-sets to suit all strategies.
Normal 🌊📘
Distributes liquidity along the "bell curve", making it similar to the liquidity in order book exchanges. Allows to capture fees from both price increases and decreases, while concentrating liquidity around certain price point.
Trader Joe partners with @LODE_one helping to bring precious metals of the past into the #DeFi of today.
Why are precious metals important?
• Gold and silver are stable and have preserved their value over centuries.
• USD is unbacked and loses purchasing power every year.
Traders on #Avalanche now have the opportunity to swap into digital backed gold and silver tokens, thanks to @LODE_one
This option opens up new and interesting strategies for portfolio diversification, whilst ensuring users can remain 100% on-chain.
LODE issues three tokens:
$AGX - represents one gram of silver
$AUX - represents one milligram of gold
$LODE - is the native token that pays out yield in AGX based on revenue. The price of LODE is rebalanced using an algorithm, maintaining a ratio relative to the price of silver
Cask recently deployed to #Avalanche and offers users the ability to automate their money flow:
⭐️ DCA in crypto on DEXs
⭐️ Send recurring P2P payments
So what exactly does it mean to 'DCA'?
Lets explore...👇
Dollar-Cost Averaging (or DCA) is a well-known strategy in crypto 🧠
It involves investing the same amount of money into a token at regular intervals. This way, investors can reduce the influence of volatility on their portfolios and avoid trying to time the market perfectly.
Thanks to the recent integration of Trader Joe into the Cask platform, #Avalanche users can now automatically DCA into their favourite tokens.
