# Trading on Altitude Altitude's Perps tab connects directly to Hyperliquid for perpetual futures trading. You can trade crypto pairs (BTC, ETH, SOL, and 100+) and HIP-3 tokenized stock perps: equities exposure on-chain, 24/7. *** #### Trading on Altitude Go to the Perps tab, pick a pair, choose long or short, set your order type (market or limit), enter size and leverage, add TP/SL if you want them, and execute. **Managing your position:** * The Perps dashboard shows open positions, unrealized P\&L, and margin usage. You can adjust TP/SL, add or reduce size, or close partially or fully at any time. Funding rates are tracked automatically and reflected in your P\&L. *** #### HIP-3 Stock Perps Same mechanics as crypto perps: perpetual futures tracking major US equities, with the same order types, leverage, and margin. Check the Perps tab for available markets. *** #### Deposits & Withdrawals Deposit USDC from your Altitude wallet to your Hyperliquid margin account from the Perps tab. Withdrawals go back the same way. No external bridging. *** #### **Margin and liquidation** Your USDC deposit is your margin across all open positions (cross-margin). Altitude shows your margin ratio, available balance, and liquidation price for each position in real time. If your margin ratio drops below the maintenance threshold, your position can be partially or fully liquidated. Set stop losses before you get there. High leverage increases liquidation risk. Monitor your margin health. Altitude charges 0.01% per transaction. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
