# Auto-Buy Warnings

## Wallet auto buy is disabled

_Auto Buy_ is disabled in your [Wallet Buy Settings](/docs/sniper/global-settings/buy-settings), which is accessible through `/start` ➡️ _Wallets_ ➡️ Select the chain ➡️ ⚙️ _Config_ ➡️ Buy. If you want any call channel or copytrade auto-buys to activate, this needs to be enabled (This has no effect on _Auto Snipe_).

## Channel auto buy is disabled

_Auto Buy_ is disabled in your [Call Channel Settings](/docs/sniper/signals/signals-settings) (or [`Me` Channel Settings](/docs/sniper/pasted-contracts/auto-buy-on-pasted-contract) in case of pasted contracts), which is accessible through `/start` ➡️ _Call Channels_ ➡️ Select the chain, then click on the relevant channel.

### Buy/Sell tax could not be estimated

This normally happens for tokens that don't have trade enabled yet, or have no liquidity. It will obviously prevent auto-buys from going through.

### Blacklist risk! Buying now could get you BLed

This happens when the bot detects that your buy will get you blacklisted on the contract. It will block the auto-buy in these cases.

### Token detected as honeypot!

This happens when the bot detects that the token is a honeypot, which means that the token is unsellable. It will block the auto-buy in these cases.

### Liquidity / Total Supply < 1%

This happens when the bot detects that the targeted liquidity pool holds less than 1% of the token's total supply. This indicates that the main pool of the token is currently not [supported by the bot](/docs/sniper/getting-started#supported-dexs), or that the token has a very unhealthy liquidity pool. The bot will block auto-buy in these cases.

### I get a warning that the token is a scam, but I still want to buy it.

The sniper normally blocks token auto-buys if it detects honeypots, blacklist risks, or unhealthy liquidity. However, some users have requested the removal of these “training wheels” to allow them to go _full degen_. This is what [_Degen Mode_](/docs/sniper/global-settings/general-settings#or-degen-mode) aims to accomplish. When enabled, the bot will still notify you if the aforementioned risks are detected, but it will **NO LONGER** block auto-buy in those events. **Only enable this if you absolutely know what you’re doing and are willing to handle the risks involved!**
