# Buy menu / Contract scan

Paste a contract

Upon pasting a token or LP contract, a basic contract scan message will show up, with the buy menu below and other options.

An LP contract will show a scan for the main token its pair is tied to.

Toggles the unique retry function of this bot. If a buy is made while this option is enabled, it will keep retrying until a buy is possible, or until 60 seconds have passed.

It won't send a transaction until it is possible to do so, so there is no need to worry about failed transactions.

Disclaimer: this is still subject to the token limits, max buy, slippage, trading enabled, etc.

If this option is disabled while retry attempts are being made, it will stop retrying immediately.

![](https://4233228024-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FIPiWemJjk1w7YWNZz779%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-254bb80fe02aff33deaa72ced182382cb8a3943e%2Fimage%20\(36\).png?alt=media) The user can send the percentage of the total supply to buy. Very useful if you don't have time to calculate the specific number of tokens to buy. Example: sending **1** will try to buy exactly 1% of the supply.

The amount received can still be altered by the token taxes of course.
