What is Banana Gun? Main features and how to use it

Since March 2026, Banana Gun has merged its old bots into a single bot, @BananaGun_bot: buying, selling and every chain in the same chat. Just paste a token address, a Pump.fun link or a DEX Screener link; the bot detects the chain and opens the right Buy, Sell or Sniper panel (if trading hasn't opened yet).

Type /start to open the menu: Sniper, Manual Buyer, Copy Trading, Positions, DCA Overview, Pending Snipes, Pending Orders, Backup Bots and Settings. Back goes back, Close closes the panel to keep the chat tidy.

The Buy panel shows the token name, DEX, market cap, liquidity, price, taxes, suggested tip, your balance and quick links to Banana Pro, DEX Screener and DEXTools. Below that you pick the wallet and preset, and there are preset buy buttons, Anti-MEV, MEV tip, gas, slippage, the payment currency, Buy Limit Order and Buy DCA.

You pay with the native coin or a stablecoin such as USDC, USDT or USD1; the bot routes through several swaps if needed. The Sell panel shows PnL and average entry, and lets you sell by %, sell from one wallet only and create a PnL card. Positions lists the tokens you hold by chain and wallet, with a Watchlist, hiding of small positions and import of position history.

• How it buys

  Max Buy is the cap per trade. Choose Buy Exact (buy the same amount the source wallet bought), Buy Percent (a percentage) or Buy Fixed (a fixed amount). Set the run time, the wallet to use and the currency to buy with.
• How it sells

  Turn on Copy Sells; Sell Exact sells the same % the source wallet sells, Sell Percent sells a share of that. You can also attach take-profit and stop-loss limit orders.
• Filters

  Tax limits, Buy Only Once (only the first buy, blocks the token for 7 days), Spending Limit, minimum and maximum market cap and token age, skipping funded buys, minimum trade size of the source wallet, minimum liquidity.
• Block tokens, block devs

  Blocked Tokens excludes tokens from copying; Token Creator Filter allows or blocks by the wallet that created the token. Pause All Copy Trades stops everything.

Sniper automatically buys a new token the moment liquidity is added to the pool. You need the token address in advance; Banana Gun has a Banana SOL Deployer channel that posts newly deployed contracts, but states clearly that most of them are scams and you have to do your own research.

Open Sniper or paste the address of a token that hasn't opened trading yet. Set the amount (Spend), preset, Anti-MEV and tip, slippage, delay, SOL and token liquidity range, minimum tokens received, maximum buy tax and allowed DEXes. Turn on Enable Snipe and you're done; view, edit or cancel in Pending Snipes.

• Buy Limit

  Buy when market cap or price hits your level: quick picks -10%, -20%… -75% or enter a number. Has an expiry and Execute After (waits a while before it can fill).
• Sell Limit

  Three types: Take Profit, Stop Loss and Trailing Stop Loss (moves the stop up as the price rises). Choose the % of tokens to sell.
• DCA buys and sells

  The total amount is split evenly over intervals (minutes, hours, days) within a time window, with price range, market cap and tax limits.
• Pending Orders

  Each order shows its trigger level, time left, and the high and low since it was placed. Edit or cancel orders one by one, or cancel a whole chain.

Each chain has three presets for buying and selling: Normal (lowest gas and tip), Fast and Insane (highest, for when everyone is racing to get in). Each preset has its own gas, slippage, Anti-MEV, MEV tip and price impact limit; editing these in the Buy or Sell panel also edits the selected preset.

Settings also has Security Pin, wallets, default buy and sell buttons, language, referral code, display options, Rewards and Utilities: claim Pump.fun cashback to your SOL wallet, and Incinerator closes unused token accounts to get the rent SOL back.

The COPY TRADE widget has three modes: Simple (enter the wallet, Max Buy, Spend Limit, slippage, run time), Advanced (Buy Only Once, Buy Exact, Buy %, Buy Fixed, minimum and maximum market cap, Copy Sell) and Presets to save settings for reuse. Turn on LIMIT ORDER to attach take profit and stop loss.

The Copy Trade Overview page lets you pause, resume and edit each wallet, see the history of tokens bought and sold, and the list of blocked tokens. In Top Traders, hover over a wallet and a copy button appears.

Since July 2026, Banana Gun refunds fees based on lifetime volume: under 50,000 USD gets 15% back, up to 250,000 USD 20%, up to 1 million USD 25%, over 1 million USD 30%; new users get the 30% rate in their first month. Cashback is counted in USD and paid in BANANA tokens on Ethereum.

Each month there are free trades (100% fee refund) for regular orders from 25 to 50,000 USD, not for limit, copy trade or DCA; trading 7, 14 or 30 days in a row earns 1, 3 or 6 extra. Hold 50 BANANA or more to get holder rewards.

Referring friends earns 10% of their fees for life, plus an extra 10% in the first 30 days and 5% from day 30 to 90. Anyone whose referral volume tops 1 million USD within 30 days gets an extra 5–10%.

• Save the private key as soon as you create a wallet: the bot won't export it again. The Banana Gun team will never ask for your key.
• Set a Security Pin: the bot locks after each session. Changing the Pin takes 8 hours and resetting a forgotten one takes 7 days, so an attacker can't change it right away.
• Turn on 2-step verification for the Google, X or Telegram account you use to log in to Banana Pro; be careful logging in to Telegram with a QR code on an unfamiliar device.
• Use only the official links: bananagun.io, pro.bananagun.io, @BananaGun_bot and the t.me/bananagunannouncements channel.
