Orders & Margin
Orders & Margin
Order types
All order sizes can be entered in USD or in the asset (switchable), or as a percentage of your available balance via the size slider.
Slippage protection
Market orders carry a configurable slippage tolerance (set in the trade panel’s settings). This is a hard bound, not best-effort: the market order is sent as an immediate-or-cancel order with a limit price of mark × (1 ± your tolerance). You can never be filled beyond that price — any portion that can’t fill within the bound is cancelled rather than filled worse.
Take-profit / stop-loss
- Attached TP/SL — toggle “Take Profit / Stop Loss” when placing an entry order to bracket the position from the start.
- Position TP/SL — add or edit TP/SL on any open position from the positions table, including partial TP/SL: close a chosen fraction of the position at each trigger level.
TP/SL levels are drawn on the chart and can be managed from there.
Reduce-only
Mark any order reduce-only and it can only decrease your position — never flip or increase it. Reduce-only orders are exempt from the minimum order value, so you can always close dust.
Managing orders
- Modify a resting limit order’s price or size in place — no cancel-and-replace needed.
- Cancel individual orders, or cancel all resting orders in one action.
- Orders are signed per-request (EIP-712) and can be submitted in batches of up to 20.
Leverage
Leverage is set per market with integer steps from 1x up to the market’s maximum (see Markets & Trading Rules). Your leverage selection is remembered per market and applies to new position openings.
Margin
HyperFlow Perps uses isolated margin: each position holds its own collateral, and losses on one position can never draw down another position’s margin.
- Add margin to a position to push the liquidation price further away.
- Remove margin that exceeds the position’s initial margin requirement.
- Margin adjustments are applied asynchronously — the UI shows the pending state until confirmed.
Before you submit any order, the trade panel shows the order value, the required margin, and the estimated liquidation price — so there are no surprises after the fill.
Closing positions
Close from the positions table with:
- Market close — immediate, full or partial (by percentage, USD, or asset amount).
- Limit close — rest a closing order at your chosen price.
- Close all — flatten every open position in one confirmation.
