Significant price fluctuations: The actual placement amount could be lower than the minimum amount required at the time of order placement. If this occurs, the order will automatically fail. 2. Insufficient gas: The on-chain gas may increase along with the trading volume. If the gas paid when trading is insufficient, the order will fail. 3. Exceeds slippage range: The slippage you set is too low to cover significant price fluctuations. 4. Insufficient liquidity: The on-chain token pool has insufficient liquidity, resulting in orders failing to be filled. 5. Abnormal inquiry service: Unable to inquire the token when you place the order, resulting in transaction timeout. ## Does Alpha trading involve any fees? The platform charges a trading fee of 0.8% per order. Please refer to the order details for the actual amount deducted. ## Why did I pay a higher network fee?
