# Setup

**Server:**\
You'll want to have a server where this will all go down, optimized location for your node for improved speeds. For more information on this, please refer to the [Needed Tools](/leap-trading-sol-bot/helpful-tools.md) section.

**Display:**\
my personal setup is to have the GUI on one of my displays. On my second monitor I'll always have Photon open with the 1 second chart of the token to see how the coin is moving and when I'm in a trade. For my other tabs ill have Raydium swap open incase I have to manually swap if something weird happens, and Dexscreener open with that token and wallet filter to see how much I make. I use Photon for my charts because its faster then everyone I've compared it too. The bot is actually ahead of photon, so I like to kind of watch both, our drop trader is quicker at pulling price then photon so you can kind of "tell the future" if you look at the price displayed on the bot, you'll notice you'll activate a buy before a dip has been shown on photon.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**It's very important that you're on the 1 second chart on photon, it's the lowest time frame and most descriptive.**
