How to fix gas fee and limit in metamask for some duration?

[boss1dg]

From 3 months i am using metamask daily for Uniswap and other Dex transactions. Whenever you send transaction it ask you to choose fast/faster/fastest speed options but actually i need to enter more gwei than pre default options so i put gwei manually. Problem is it ask this thing everytime you send any transaction. This irritate me most, choosing gas fee or limit again n again makes my transaction delay and cause me loss in case price fluctuate in next block. Anyone have the solution for this?
Why Metamask team do not even consider this thing as good feature to roll out in their update? It is life saving for me and many Dex traders.

Looking ethgas.info to know more with your gass setting transaction, you must match between ethgass.info and with your gass setting on uniswap or sending your coin in metamask. They will three kinds transaction way, first most faster where you need pay higher fee and you can use starndart with normal fee and using cheapest for lower fee but your transaction take long time for receiving. I use second way when sending coin from metamask, myetherwallet to get lower fees and look faster than third way for sending coin.

Right here! I always consult gwei and gas price before making a Tx to choose a suitable one. Do not use tools on metamask, it always have low gwei and gas price is too high, it is not suitable if you want to send transactions on ETH blockchain.

[GAS Price Aggregator] How to find the optimal gas price

Nobody mention that this fee will be minimal at the moment because when you send a transaction to yourself, you need to use a minimal gas limit which is only 25000 gwei.

Stucked transactions occur almost always on very heavily used contracts where gas limits have to be set up much higher also. When we are interacting with very complicated contract or the transaction has to be routed between a few contracts, for example: ETH - wETH - GOLD - wallet, then it makes the gas limit go higher. This is the simplest way to exchange on Uniswap, which needs at least 150.000 gwei gas limit because less will be not successful.

Suggestion: I am using 1inch exchange. You can use their CHI token to lower significantly the ETH gas fees  .
                  This is a DEX aggregator, so you have all Dex exchanges in one place.

Another solution is new DEX nobody talks about called Honeyswap.org


https://honeyswap.org/#/swap

Uniswap clone made on XDAI which makes transactions cost 0.0003$ and there is no network congestion problem, additionally, this is also DEX aggregator.

I think we are seeing a big Uniswap competitor here  .

I think metamask helped me to cancel the previous transaction because of the low gas costs, so I can add gas fees by canceling the previous transaction, you won't be able to do that if you use myetherwallet, so I think that feature is good enough for metamask users and you only need to see ethgastation to see and make arrangements for the gas costs needed

Well, metamask already gives the user 3 different gas amount options, fast, faster, and fastest, why did you choose to put it manually ?
Have you tried to choose the 'fastest' gas fee ? We can compare the amount of gas fee on metamask with gastracker in etherscan website.
Till now, i have no problem in using metamask wallet to send eth or tokens.

Sometimes the fastest option of metamask is not enough when you are trading on uniswap. So we have to add some extra GWEI so that miners will quickly process our transactions. It's so that we can beat the queue and get into token asap.

I also struggle and sometimes the fastest option in metamask doesn't match the estimated time I think. I often add GWEI manually, based on the fastest GAS price. I often lose, especially the bonding curve that causes "GAS WAR". Hope the metamask has a significant update.

I did not ask how to check gas fee to confirm my transaction faster. Obviously i know that and i will not create topic for such common questions. Please read again what i have asked.
In metamask we need to choose gas fee everytime and i want solution for that, i just want to put 2x gas fee of ethgasstation for 2-3 hours. so that i do not need to enter it again and again.

its depend on purpose, my purpose is to process transaction faster than others. in slow mode it takes 4-7 blocks which is much more for any trader.

Yes you are right metamask gives 3 options and we can choose fastest, but if you have noticed when congestion increases then metamask get puzzled and even its fastest fee take more than 1 block to process transaction. My main purpose is to process/send my transaction in the next block and i am happy to spend more fee rather than losing on arbitrage opportunity.

2nd problem with their pre-default fee and limit is that during contract interaction it pick 21000 as gas limit or sometimes it pick gas limit in millions. That's annoying as txn get failed. i always put 80-100% more gas limit than expected usage, neither in millions nor too less.

Finally found someone who also feel the same pain like me, now waiting for some developer/coder or metamask team to understand how much important this feature is for any DEX trader or DAPP user.

Remember that not all metamask user is using Uniswap or other DEX that needs extreme transaction speed in case of network congestion. The reason why they might not save the gwei is because they are making sure that people will not mistake on using higher fees. If a user want to transfer fund during congestion and want the transaction faster than the default fasted. They will manually adjust the gwei but what if they will send again in normal speed but forgot to change back again the gwei in default? It will cost 20$ ~ 50$ for a normal transaction if the feature that you want implemented.

In addition, it should be implemented on the side of the dapps, in this case, to the Uniswap themselves, it is true that it could incur your fees on normal transactions outside of the uni swap when this feature was added. And what disaster it could get further is that transaction fees on Ethereum will be high as people always choose the option to send the fastest transactions on the main net, as a result, it will be like bidding, the higher the fee, the faster it would be transferred. They have already set the standards for the most efficient way of managing the gas, I think that is enough and it is on our end to adjust.

Point, but i am not asking them to give this option to all users. They can give this option in settings with warning of high gas fee. That is enough for any new person. Even at uniswap if you put more than 5% slippage they give warning so whats the issue?

For you Guys may be it is enough as you are not trading on uniswap that much, but people like me do many transaction daily on uniswap so not good for us.
What is the problem in giving this option in Developer mode or with warning.
