## How do Squads users benefit from Squads Trade?

Squads Trade offers deeper liquidity, optimized prices, and a great trading experience for Squads users. Users can execute:

## What is Intent-based trading?

Squads Trade is built with the conviction that intent-based trading will soon dominate onchain markets.

Intent-based trading transcends single-exchange market orders by expressing what traders want to achieve rather than how to achieve it. This includes orders that execute across multiple venues, markets, and time horizons.

This provides superior price execution allowing traders to set their desired entry points and let automation handle execution when conditions align. Squads Trade will use intent-based trading to offer deeper liquidity, optimized prices and a seamless trading experience.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.squads.so/main/navigating-your-squad/trade.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
