# Automations

Automations works as cron jobs tasking your agent to do something in a specified timeframe. \
\
These can be anything here are a few examples - \
\
\- Check my portfolio and positions every 30 min and sell any positions in profit above 200% PNL \
\
\- Check what KOL's are buying every 5 min and buy tokens that are not obvious rugs and set TP/SL at 20% down and 100% up sell 50% then DCA out if our TP hits \
\
\- Find me mis-priced prediction markets every hour and buy into the best ones we can. Monitor positions held on markets and exit if resolved in profit 

Automations are not limited by one at a time multiple can run in parallel and use specialist best fit for the job with skills if applicable to the task.
