# Execution Performance & Large Trades

Typical execution times by order type, and how Husher handles trades from $10K to $200K+ without speed degradation

Husher prioritizes execution speed without sacrificing self-custody. Speed comes from architecture: executing against centralized-exchange spot liquidity rather than on-chain AMMs, using one-time deposit addresses, and delivering output directly to user wallets without any intermediate stop. The same flow applies whether you swap a small amount or a large one.

### Typical execution times

| Order type   | Typical time after confirmations                   |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
| Float        | \~30 seconds                                       |
| Fixed        | \~30 seconds                                       |
| Private Mode | Several minutes, depending on routing and networks |

{% hint style="info" %}
The \~30-second figure covers execution after the required confirmations are reached. Confirmation wait time is separate and depends on block time and network congestion for the input asset's network.
{% endhint %}

### How this performance is achieved

* **CEX spot liquidity:** deep order books mean large trades execute without AMM price impact
* **No on-chain AMM routing:** trades do not pass through liquidity pools for large amounts
* **One-time deposit addresses:** no queuing or batching, each order starts immediately
* **Direct output delivery:** the output asset goes straight from the ESP to your destination wallet

Husher does not batch, queue, or delay trades. Each order is processed independently on arrival.

### Large trades

Husher is optimized for meaningful trade sizes. Centralized-exchange spot markets provide the depth needed for larger orders without the slippage and price impact typical of on-chain AMMs.

* Deep CEX liquidity reduces slippage on large notional sizes
* Trades in the **$10K to $200K+** range routinely execute without speed degradation
* No accounts or pre-funding required, large orders work the same as small ones
* Execution quality scales with available market liquidity

| Capability                        | Detail                                                                  |
| --------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Fast, predictable execution       | \~30 seconds after confirmations for Float and Fixed orders             |
| Flexible order types              | Choose Float, Fixed, or Private depending on priorities                 |
| Optional privacy-enhanced routing | Private Mode adds a ZEC or XMR hop for additional discretion            |
| No custody, no accounts, no KYC   | Large trades carry the same non-custodial guarantees as any other order |

{% hint style="info" %}
Execution speed and reliability on large trades are a result of architecture, not shortcuts. Because orders route through centralized-exchange spot depth, the same flow applies regardless of trade size.

<details>

<summary>What happens if market liquidity is insufficient for a very large order?</summary>

Execution quality scales with available market liquidity at the time of execution. In practice, the centralized-exchange spot markets used by Husher ESPs handle substantial volume. For unusually large trades or in thin-market conditions, a Float order's output may reflect the market rate at execution time, which could vary from the quoted estimate. Fixed-rate orders guarantee the output amount regardless of short-term market movement, with any adverse movement absorbed by the execution provider.
