hi @kwchik ,read this article carefully > **[How to speed up or cancel a pending transaction](https://support.metamask.io/hc/en-us/articles/360015489251-How-to-speed-up-or-cancel-a-pending-transaction)** > > Have you tried MetaMask Activity? > MetaMask Activity is a new tool that can analyze your transactions and automatically suggest possible resolutions, and it has a built-in function dedicated to pend... > When using this method, **you will need to work backwards from the oldest pending transaction in the queue that you want to cancel**. For example, you cannot attempt to cancel a transaction with a nonce of 10 before canceling nonce 9. > To make sure your cancellation request is picked up as a priority, and before the original, **you will need to pay more for gas**. On this screen, follow these instructions: > > - Set your **gas limit** _comparable to or slightly higher_ than your original transaction. > - Set your **priority fee** to _at least 10% higher_ (in Gwei) than the gas fee of the original (pending) transaction (e.g. if that transaction had a gas fee of 30 Gwei, set the max priority fee in the replacement/cancellation transaction to 33-35 Gwei). > - Make sure your **max fee** is at least 30% higher than the max fee of the transaction you’re replacing. For example, if your previous fee was 150 Gwei, choose something nearer 200 Gwei this time. ---

Hi Tuya, I can send another 0 ETH transaction with high gas fee for nonce 1, 2 and 3. But cannot set this for nonce 0. My pending transaction is nonce 0 ---

hi, according to the guidelines of the article, can’t you fill in the **Custom Nonce** as 0? ---

I use Copy & Paste Function to Paste “0” to nonce field. But finally the transaction has error: “ replacement transaction underpriced “ ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/metamask/original/3X/9/5/95fc56c54cf77356009b7673e3f00585d4ef0819.jpeg) ---

well, did you follow the instructions in the mobile section of the article to set the **Advanced options**? 🤔 to make it easier to succeed, you can set it a little higher than that. ---

Wow, problem solved, Thanks a lot. Please Paste “0” to custom nonce filed. Because we cannot set 0 by used “+” and “-“ button ---
