Strategies for Maximizing Rewards
Maximize Your Returns
To get the most out of Pangolin V3 as an LP, consider some best practices (many of which align with Uniswap v3 LP strategies):
Concentrate Liquidity Strategically
Provide liquidity in narrower ranges around the current price where trading is heaviest to earn a larger share of fees. The more you concentrate (within reason), the higher fee APR you can achieve for a given capital. For instance, concentrating in a 10% price band rather than 50% band can significantly amplify your fee earnings – just be prepared to adjust if the price moves.
Monitor Market Conditions
Keep an eye on the token’s volatility and trend. In a low-volatility regime, a tight range can consistently capture trades and earn fees with minimal adjustment. In a trending market, you may need to move your range along with the price (or temporarily widen it). Also watch overall DEX volume – during high-volume days, being in range is extra lucrative. Pangolin’s dynamic fees will also increase during high volatility, which can mean higher earnings if you stay in range during those times.
Adjust Ranges Regularly
Rather than set and forget, reassess your range periodically. If price has drifted toward one edge of your range, you might proactively move the range to recenter around the current price to keep your liquidity active. Some LPs adjust daily, others when price changes by a certain percent. Find a balance between too frequent adjustments (which incur gas fees and possibly realizations of IL) and too infrequent (losing fee opportunities).
Utilize Range Orders for Rebalancing
By following these strategies, you can enhance your earnings while providing valuable liquidity to the exchange. Pangolin V3’s design empowers LPs to take an active role in liquidity management. It’s a more engaging process than the passive LPing of earlier AMMs, but with the potential for higher rewards as a result. Remember that all LPing involves some risk, and only supply liquidity for projects you believe in and assets you’re willing to hold.
Diversify Across Pools
You can provide liquidity to multiple pools or multiple ranges. This can diversify your risks. Perhaps split your portfolio: some in a stablecoin-stablecoin pool (low risk, moderate yield), some in a volatile pool like AVAX-PNG but in a narrower range (higher risk, high yield). Diversification can help ensure that even if one position goes out of range or suffers IL, another is still earning.
Stay Informed on Incentives
Pangolin’s farming incentives can change (new pools added, rewards rates updated). Stay updated via Pangolin’s announcements or the farm page. Shifting your liquidity to a pool with a generous Superpool can greatly boost your overall yield. For example, if PNG rewards are high for an AVAX-USDt pool, it might outweigh the slightly lower trading fees there.
Impermanent Loss Awareness
Continuously evaluate if the fees + rewards you earn are outweighing impermanent loss. There are community calculators and tools that help estimate IL vs fees for Uniswap v3 style positions – these can be used for Pangolin V3 as well. If a position is no longer profitable, don’t hesitate to reduce exposure.
