Auto-Pools

Automated liquidity management directly connected to DEX. Auto-Pools deploys algorithmic strategies that rebalance Ticks, maximize capital efficiency, and adapt to changing market conditions.

At a Glance

  • Automated Tick management with zero manual intervention
  • Four market modes: Bull, Bear, Dynamic, Static
  • Two rebalancing types: Trailing and Active
  • Continuous rebalancing enabled by MegaETH's low gas costs
  • Real-time performance tracking and analytics
  • Composable with DEX and Hedge

How It Works

Strategy algorithms run continuously, analyzing market conditions and adjusting your positions automatically. MegaETH's ultra-low gas costs (~ $0.01 per rebalance) make frequent adjustments economically viable.

Why Use Auto-Pools?

Manual Management Challenges

Managing concentrated liquidity manually is complex:

  • Requires constant price monitoring
  • Need to calculate optimal zones
  • Must rebalance when price moves
  • Time-intensive and prone to human error
  • Emotional decisions during volatility

Auto-Pools Benefits

Automation: Strategies work 24/7 without human input.

Optimization: Algorithms calculate mathematically optimal zones.

Speed: Rebalance in milliseconds when conditions change.

Consistency: No emotional decisions. Pure math.

Scalability: Manage multiple positions simultaneously.

Strategy Modes

Selecting the right market mode for your intent is the first step in automating your rebalancing strategy. Market modes allow LPs to choose the direction of rebalancing giving them greater control over their liquidity.

Bull Mode

Best for bull market. This mode functions like a dynamic range order that follows the price of the tokenB asset up. Rebalance will happen on the right side of the price. This strategy is for LPs who expect ETH to go up.

Best For: Bull markets, expecting ETH to go up.

Details →

Bear Mode

Best for bear market. This mode functions like a dynamic range order that follows the price of the tokenA asset up. Rebalance will happen on the left side of the price. This strategy is for LPs who expect ETH to go down.

Best For: Bear markets, expecting ETH to go down.

Details →

Dynamic Mode

Best for sideways (volatile) market. This mode functions like a dynamic range order that follows the pool price right and left, keeping liquidity as active as possible. This is how ALMs work, best for volatile markets with no clear direction.

Best For: Sideways/volatile markets with no clear trend.

Details →

Static Mode

Best for advanced liquidity strategies. This mode features static ticks that you can use to define your own custom liquidity strategy. Static liquidity used for building more sophisticated LP strategies.

Best For: Advanced users who want full control over position.

Rebalancing Types

After selecting a market mode, you choose a rebalancing type:

Trailing Rebalancing

Trailing rebalancing works by trailing the market price before executing the rebalance. It prevents unnecessary divergence loss by quickly swapping tokens in the pool and keeping the LP position in the range.

Best For: Minimizing divergence loss, waiting for price to return to range.

Details →

Active Rebalancing

Active rebalancing adjusts your liquidity position within the market's price range by actively adjusting the distribution of tokens in your liquidity pool. It ensures your position is always within the active price range.

Best For: Immediate rebalancing when price goes out of range.

Key Features

Continuous Rebalancing

Traditional chains make frequent rebalancing unprofitable:

Ethereum Mainnet:
Rebalance cost: $100
Need $50+ fee improvement to justify
Rebalance frequency: Weekly or less

MegaETH:
Rebalance cost: $0.01
Need $0.50+ fee improvement to justify
Rebalance frequency: Hourly or more

MegaETH enables true continuous optimization.

Real-Time Adjustments

Strategies adjust positions in real-time:

  • Bot monitors positions every 5 minutes
  • Price moves trigger rebalancing automatically
  • No waiting for off-chain keepers or block confirmations

Multi-Position Management

Deploy strategies across multiple positions:

Position 1: ETH/USDm (Bull Mode)
Position 2: WBTC/ETH (Dynamic Mode)
Position 3: USDm/USDT (Static Mode)

Each position runs its own strategy independently.

Performance Analytics

Track strategy performance in detail:

  • APR over time
  • Rebalancing frequency and costs
  • Zone width adjustments
  • Fee earnings

Compare manual vs automated performance.

Deploying a Strategy

Select Market Mode

  1. Navigate to Auto-Pools
  2. Browse available modes (Bull, Bear, Dynamic, Static)
  3. Review characteristics of each
  4. Select mode matching your market view

Choose Rebalancing Type

Select either:

  • Trailing Rebalancing: Trails price before executing
  • Active Rebalancing: Immediately swaps to bring position in range

Set Price Range

Define the minimum and maximum price range around the current price. You can make it in a custom ratio according to your assets and investment mindset.

Set Rebalance Triggers

Set minimum and maximum triggers within or around your price range. This provides a cushion during market swings and prevents spammed rebalancing during volatility.

Set Rebalance Count

Determine how many times you want the algorithm to rebalance your liquidity position before it pauses rebalancing. This helps you reassess your strategy as market conditions may change.

Choose Pool and Amount

Select:

  • Token pair
  • Fee tier
  • Initial capital amount

Strategy creates initial position with optimal zone.

Confirm Deployment

Review:

  • Strategy mode
  • Rebalancing type
  • Pool details
  • Price range and triggers
  • Gas estimates

Approve and deploy. Strategy activates immediately.

Architecture

Auto-Pools is built on a base vault architecture with module contracts that manage user liquidity according to selected intents.

Key components:

  • Base Vault: Manages all pools and strategies
  • Strategy Contracts: Separate vaults for each strategy
  • Fee-Sharing Mechanisms: Compounding and non-compounding
  • Bot Monitoring: Off-chain bots trigger rebalancing transactions

Composability

Strategies integrate with other MegaFi layers:

With DEX

Strategies build on top of Pools:

  • Use same liquidity positions
  • Manage Ticks automatically
  • Collect and compound fees

With Hedge

Hedge your Auto-Pools positions by buying options to protect against downside risk:

Auto-Pools: Earn fees from LP position
Hedge: Buy put option for downside protection

Benefits:

  • Protect against impermanent loss: Put options limit downside exposure when prices decline
  • Offset premiums with fees: Trading fees from Auto-Pools can help cover option premiums
  • Works with all modes: Hedge any strategy mode (Bull, Bear, Dynamic, Static)
  • Real-time execution: MegaETH's sub-10ms execution enables precise hedging

Example Strategy:

  • Deploy Auto-Pools position in ETH/USDm (Bull Mode)
  • Buy ETH put options at support level via Hedge
  • Fees from LP position offset option costs
  • If ETH price drops, puts protect against IL
