# Trade Bot

To begin, please ensure that the Vulcan Authentication role has the following permissions in your server. It must be able to see your desired support channels. *<mark style="color:red;">**Double-check your channel overrides to ensure Vulcan has sufficient access to broadcast the support ticket webhook. A warning will appear on the setup screen if Vulcan lacks sufficient permissions and the configuration cannot be saved. You can find how to set up channel permissions under the**</mark>* [*<mark style="color:purple;">**Getting Started**</mark>*](https://help.vulcan.xyz/getting-started) *<mark style="color:red;">**document section.**</mark>*

## How to use Trade Bot commands

* **POSTING TRADES** - To post a trade use the command `/trade` the bot will then fetch all NFTs you have verified within the server. Next, you can select which NFT you'd like to trade with and then write a brief description of what you are looking for. Below is an example flow.

* **CREATING OFFERS** - To create a verified offer you simply click the 'Create Verified Offer' button under any trade post. Next, you will select an asset you have verified ownership of within the server followed by a brief description of the offer. Below is an example flow.

* **TRADES COMMAND** - Finally, the `/trades` command. When you use this command it will show you the 5 most recent trade offers posted within the server that are still active. This will also display the number of counter-offers sent to that trade. Clicking the blue name will direct you to the trade. Below is an example flow.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://premint.gitbook.io/vulcan/products/bots/trade-bot.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
