Find a listed market
Inspect reference price, market availability and overnight-compatible leverage limits.
- 02
Set the order
Choose direction, USDC collateral, leverage and market, limit or stop entry. Review TP/SL.
- 03
Manage the exact position
Use its current trade ID for margin, protection and close actions. Existing orders have separate controls.
- 04
Verify settlement
An accepted request is not an executed trade. Follow the matching callback and collateral delivery.
Read the units before entering an amount
Collateral and fee caps use USDC; triggers use quoted prices; close size is a percentage.
Check the result
If settlement is unresolved, continue the bounded callback scan. Unsupported or ambiguous callbacks remain unverified.
Troubleshooting
- The market or quote is unavailable
- Refresh the current state. Confirm the network and exact contract. A saved reference is not proof of live liquidity or provider availability.
- Approval succeeded but the action did not
- Approval only sets a spending permission. Return to the action form for a fresh review, then verify the separate execution transaction.
- I closed the wallet or changed devices
- Reconnect the same owning wallet and network. Inspect Activity & recovery or import the supported transaction or order identifier before repeating a submission.
