What happens
- The screen decides where. The current output of the universe screen — filtered by your strategy or your asset picks — determines the pools.
- The algorithms decide how. Range width, placement around the current price, and how capital is divided across pools are computed from measured market behaviour — realised volatility, liquidity depth, emission rates. The sizing model is proprietary; what we can say is that ranges are sized from data, not defaults, and a calm stable pair gets a very different range than a volatile meme.
- The agent executes. Deposits are converted into the required pair tokens (under the vault’s per-swap loss cap), positions are minted, and — where the venue supports it — staked for emissions.
Timing
Planting typically begins within minutes of a deposit. The agent may stage large deposits across multiple transactions rather than moving everything at once — patience at entry is cheaper than price impact.Planting is also how re-entry works: after a rotation or a harvest large enough to compound, the same machinery places the new positions.
