# Alias

Use aliases to create custom shortcuts for any longer commands or a command chains/blocks. They work universally, i.e. they only store and output the content as text. The syntax works similar to the [hotkey system:](/documentation/terminal-cli/shortcut-hotkeys.md) \
\
`alias chadswarm "repeat 5 (swarm buy 100000$ into 5; sleep 5)"` 

Now you only need to type in the CLI: `chadswarm` 

More examples:

`alias tpsell "chase sell 100% reduce"`

`alias buybtc "scale buy @mysize btcusdt into 10 from -1% to -2%"`

You will find an overview of your existing aliases via the Hotkey quickmenu in the header bar.
