4.3 - CLAMM pools (Custom Ranges)
CLAMM (also known as concentrated liquidity) lets you provide liquidity inside a chosen price range instead of across the whole chart.
You’re basically saying: “I want my liquidity working here, where trading happens.”
Filter pools on the liquidity page by clicking the 'Concentrated' tab:
Why CLAMM exists
Concentrating liquidity near the current price can:
create deeper effective liquidity where swaps actually occur
improve execution for traders
let LPs earn more NEST emissions per unit of capital when positioned well
The one rule that matters
In range = active liquidity
Out of range = inactive liquidity
If you go out of range, your liquidity stops being used for swaps, and on Nest you stop earning emissions while inactive.

Choosing a range
Tighter range → more efficiency, more management, higher emissions
Wider range → less management, less efficiency, lower emissions (compared to tighter range)
A good beginner approach is starting wider, then tightening once you understand how the pair moves.
What to watch
Range risk: price can move out of your range (especially on volatile pairs)
Impermanent loss: still applies
Repositioning cost: adjusting ranges means more transactions (gas + time)
Best use case: you want higher efficiency and you’re willing to monitor/adjust regularly for higher NEST emissions to be earned.
