- Custom Nonce
While using this method you will need to keep in mind that you have to cancel the oldest transaction pending first. For example, you cannot try to cancel the transaction if a nonce 9 before canceling nonce 8. To perform this procedure, you have to follow the steps mentioned below.
- Open your MetaMask browser.
- Complete the process of MetaMask Sign In.
- After this click on the settings option and then on “Advance Settings”.
- Then check if the “Advance Gas Control” option is turned on or not. By using this option, you can cancel the transaction you prefer first then the transaction which was originally in line to be canceled. This option will not give any preference to the transactions according to their nonce.
- Make a new transaction. In this new transaction, you can make a new payment and try to increase your Gas fees so that it will prioritize this transaction.
You have to set your gas limit higher than the original one. For example, if the gas fee in the previous transaction were 40 Gwei then in the transaction please change it to 45-50 Gwei.
If you are confused about the Gas fees that should be paid with your transactions, then you should use the tools available online which will help you determine the correct price for every transaction.
