Trade perpetual contracts in the OneKey App

Updated today

Inside the OneKey Desktop App, you can use the embedded Hyperliquid platform to trade perpetual futures, enjoying a convenient and secure derivatives trading experience.

What are Perps

Perps, short for Perpetual Futures (perpetual contracts), are a type of derivative similar to traditional futures, but unlike futures, they have no expiration date.

Perps are suitable for users who want to trade with leverage or take short positions, for example:

  • If you are bullish on ETH, you can open a long position to amplify gains;

  • If you are bearish on ETH, you can open a short position to profit from price declines;

Perps trading within the OneKey App is powered by Hyperliquid, allowing users to trade conveniently and securely within the App.

How to trade Perps in OneKey

  1. Open the OneKey Desktop App (v5.12.0);

  2. Enter the Contracts module;

  3. Select a trading pair (e.g., ETH/USDC-PERP);

  4. Set leverage and position direction (long or short);

  5. Confirm the trade to open the position;
