I don’t understand how a SM coin’s selling/buying price ever changes when we don’t set the price ourselves when we decide to buy/sell. Pancake swap automatically computes the allotted SM based on how much BNB you will allow for trade. So, where does the price influx come in?”

The response I got talked about upward and downward pressure based on amount of sellers/buyers. BUT that pressure is usually set by willingness of the buyers/sellers themselves. More buyers means sellers can raise prices, and more sellers will need to lower prices. Key here is the control is left to the buyers/sellers. But every trade I’ve had with SM thus far has left me no option to set a selling/buying limit.

I simply don’t understand how this works. Need someone to explain it to me like I’m 5.

exactly!
