Helpful Tips

Perpetual futures are now live inside Atomic Wallet. With Atomic Perps, you can open, manage, and close leveraged long or short positions on major markets like BTC, ETH, and SOL, along with trending assets such as PEPE, BONK, and DOGE. Everything runs directly inside your non-custodial wallet, with no accounts, no KYC, and no external platforms.

Atomic Perps integrates on-chain perpetual markets powered by Hyperliquid, giving you deep liquidity, fast execution, and transparent pricing while keeping full control of your keys. It’s a new way to trade perps: simple, self-custodial, and ready for anyone.

How Perpetual Futures Work

Perps are really a reflection in real time of the price. You're not buying BTC or ETH themselves — you're trading their price action.

Perpetual futures allow you to amplify your exposure using leverage. For example, with $100 of margin and 5× leverage, you can open a position worth $500. If the market moves in your favor, your gains increase — but if it moves against you, losses grow just as quickly, which makes strong risk management essential.

The funding rate keeps perps close to spot prices. When they are generally long, they give a tiny commission to short traders, and vice versa. It balances the market automatically.

How to Trade Perps Step-by-Step in Atomic Wallet

Trading perpetual futures in Atomic Wallet is designed to be simple, fast, and fully self-custodial. You don’t need accounts, browser extensions, or centralized exchanges. Everything happens directly inside your wallet.

  1. Open Atomic Wallet and go to the Perps section.
  2. Choose your trading pair — BTC, ETH, SOL, or other supported markets.
  3. Select Long or Short, depending on your market outlook.
  4. Set your leverage and review margin requirements.
  5. Tap “Open Position” — your trade executes instantly on-chain.
  6. Track, adjust, or close positions anytime directly from your wallet.

Why Trade Perps in Atomic Wallet

Most perpetual futures exchanges are professional tools — charts, levers, and complex UIs that overwhelm rather than help. Atomic Wallet does the opposite.

Here, you trade from your wallet directly — no CEX accounts, browser extensions, or extra logins. Simply plug in, choose your market, and trade.

Key advantages:

  • Non-custodial control: Your funds never leave your wallet
  • Fast execution: On-chain fills through Hyperliquid’s infrastructure
  • Clear risk tools: View funding rates, margin requirements, and PnL in real time
  • Simple design: No complex dashboards or overwhelming charts
  • Unified access: Trade major assets and trending tokens in one place

With Atomic Perps, traders can access deep on-chain liquidity while staying in full control of their keys and their strategy.

Risk Management

Perps generate huge potential — but with greater flexibility, there is higher danger. Knowing how to manage it is what separates smart traders from fortunate ones.

Here’s what to remember:

  • Leverage cuts both ways. It can amplify your profits — but also your losses.
  • Margin matters. If your collateral drops below maintenance level, your position may be liquidated.
  • Funding rates change. They can affect your PnL over time — keep an eye on them.
  • Use stop-loss orders. Protect your capital before the market moves against you.

Trade responsibly, start small, and always understand your exposure. Atomic gives you tools to stay in control — but discipline is on you.
