# How to trade using Smart Router
## Trading on the Smart Router
Smart Router is disabled by default on the swap page. It is similar to using the existing PancakeSwap AMM.
Before starting, it requires a **BNB Chain-compatible wallet and BNB for gas fees.** Please check our [wallet guide](/welcome-to-pancakeswap/how-to-guides/get-started/wallet-guide.md) for more details.
1. Go to the swap page [here.](https://pancakeswap.finance/swap#/swap)
2. Choose the token pairs you would like to trade. At launch, only exact input is accepted for Smart Router due to slippage concerns.
3. Enter the value of the tokens you wish to trade. Check the **“Use StableSwap for better fees”** box.
4\. Check the new route using the icon in the route field on the bottom row. You're all set! The following swap process is the same as usual. If it’s your first time trading please check the [guide here.](/trade/pancakeswap-exchange/trade-guide.md)
## Turning off Smart Router
Disabling the smart router routes all trades via V2 paths. Stableswap pairs will not be enabled.
1. Hit the **Settings** icon on the top right of the swap menu.
2. **Disable Smart Router** on the pop-up that appears.
3\. Close Settings Page.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.pancakeswap.finance/trade/pancakeswap-exchange/smart-router-v2/how-to-trade-using-smart-router.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
