Perpetuals
Trade perpetual futures on Hyperliquid from your Hexa account, with one-click setup, leverage, take-profit and stop-loss.
Perpetuals trades perpetual futures on Hyperliquid from your own Hexa wallet. Your positions and margin live in your Hyperliquid account, which belongs to your Hexa EVM address.
Leverage can lose more than you expect
Leveraged positions can be liquidated automatically by Hyperliquid, and you can lose the whole margin you posted. Start small and always set a stop-loss.
Enable perpetuals
The Enable perps card runs the setup your account still needs. Each step happens once; if something interrupts it, press Continue setup to pick up where it stopped.
Trading key
Hexa creates a Hyperliquid trading key for your account and seals it inside its signing service. It can place and cancel orders, but it can never withdraw. It lasts 30 days and is renewed for you near the end (or press Renew trading key).
Fund
Send USDC on Arbitrum One to your Hexa EVM address (the same address as on every EVM chain), plus a little ETH on Arbitrum for gas. Then press I've funded it: continue; Hexa moves the USDC into Hyperliquid. Hyperliquid's minimum deposit is 5 USDC.
Approve the builder fee
Your wallet approves Hexa's builder fee on Hyperliquid, at most 0.10%.
Approve the trading key
Your wallet authorises the trading key on your Hyperliquid account. The card then shows Perps enabled.
Place an order
| Field | Options |
|---|---|
| Margin | Cross (shared margin across positions) or Isolated (margin for this position only) |
| Leverage | From 1× up to the market's maximum (quick picks 1× to 50×) |
| Side | Buy / Long or Sell / Short |
| Type | Market (fills now, within about 3% of the mark price), Limit (rests on the book until filled or cancelled) or Trigger (a stop-market order) |
| Size | In the coin or in USD, or with the slider |
| TP / SL | Take-profit and stop-loss prices, sent together with the order |
| Reduce only | The order can only shrink a position, never open or grow one |
Before you place it, the form shows the order value, margin required, an estimated liquidation price and estimated fees. A take-profit must be above the entry for a long (below for a short), and a stop-loss the other way round.
Order limits
- Minimum $10 notional per order (Hyperliquid's minimum), except reduce-only orders.
- Currently up to $12 per order, within the shared daily limit. See Fees and limits.
Track your positions
The tabs under the chart show Open positions, Open orders, Order history, Trade history, Position history and Funding payments. Perps equity also appears in Portfolio.
Move funds in and out
Press Transfer to open Transfer USDC:
- Withdraw to Arbitrum sends USDC from Hyperliquid back to your Hexa wallet on Arbitrum One, signed by your main wallet. Hyperliquid charges a flat $1, and funds arrive in about five minutes. From there you can withdraw them.
- Deposit from Arbitrum moves more USDC in.
Fees
Per fill: Hexa's 0.10% builder fee and 0.90% Hexa fee on notional, plus Hyperliquid's trading fees. See Fees and limits.
Simulate mode
In simulate mode the button reads Simulate… and orders are recorded without being sent to Hyperliquid.
