Hypertrade documentation
Hypertrade gives your AI a real trading desk on Hyperliquid. You choose the model and set the limits in plain language; the AI proposes trades; an independent 25-rule risk engine checks every single one before it can fill. Hypertrade One creates a user-controlled trading account and a separate trade-only permission, so new users never paste a private key or recovery phrase. The trading agent cannot authorize an external withdrawal. These docs cover everything from your first practice desk to the full Pro terminal.
Getting started
Hypertrade gives your AI a real trading desk on Hyperliquid: you set the limits in plain language, the AI proposes trades, and an independent 25-rule risk engine checks every single one before it can fill.
The fastest way to try Hypertrade: one click creates a practice desk with free testnet USDC already loaded. No wallet, no deposit, nothing at risk.
When enabled for your account, create a self-custodial Hyperliquid trading account and grant a separate trade-only permission without copying a private key.
Tutorials
Choose practice or real funds, grant trade-only permission, and select a risk style. Advanced settings remain optional.
Use a tracked funding route to move USDC into your own Hyperliquid account, with a live quote, recovery policy, and settlement receipt.
Allocate collateral once so eligible US-stock perpetuals can compete with crypto setups under the same risk engine; the same balance also unlocks manual trading on the venue's commodity perps (gold, silver, oil, and more).
Describe how your desk should trade in your own words, any language, and the mandate copilot drafts the settings. Nothing applies until you approve it.
A panel-by-panel guide to Hypertrade's dense trading terminal: proposals and verdicts, positions, the order book, mandate rules, and the status bar that never lies.
You are always senior to the AI: close any position with one click, pause the desk, or flatten everything instantly with the kill-switch, and know exactly what each control does.
Concepts
The two core objects in Hypertrade: a desk is one AI with one wallet and one risk contract; a mandate is the single document that desk lives by.
The four risk modes and the hard numbers each one enforces: max leverage, risk per trade, daily loss lock, and the drawdown that auto-pauses the desk.
Two ways a desk can run: co-pilot proposes and waits for your approval on every trade; autonomous trades on its own inside the limits. Both face the same risk engine.
Hypertrade One keeps owner control separate from trade-only automation and never stores raw key material for a new secure signer.
Practice funds versus real money: what's identical (everything about how the product behaves) and what's different (the money, the markets available, and the safety rails).
Why your desk trades less often than you might expect: every candidate setup is graded, then must clear independent evidence and positive-growth checks.
How Hypertrade freezes market data, exposes coverage honestly, and keeps research separate from live trading authority.
