Trade Stocks, Gold & Indices as Perpetual Futures

Stock perpetual futures are derivative contracts that track the price of a stock (like Nvidia, Tesla, or Apple) without an expiry date. They trade 24/7 on decentralized exchanges like Hyperliquid, and use a funding rate mechanism to keep the contract price close to the real stock price. You can go long or short with leverage.

To trade stock perps: 1) Connect a crypto wallet to Beacon or Hyperliquid, 2) Deposit USDC as collateral, 3) Select the stock you want to trade (e.g., NVDA, TSLA), 4) Choose your leverage and position size, 5) Execute your trade. No brokerage account or KYC required.

Yes. Unlike traditional stock markets with limited trading hours, stock perpetual futures on Hyperliquid trade around the clock. You can trade NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, and other stock perps on weekends, holidays, and after hours. The oracle price feeds ensure accurate pricing even when traditional markets are closed.

Stock perpetual futures are synthetic derivatives - you do not own the underlying shares. Key differences: 1) 24/7 trading vs. market hours only, 2) Leverage available (up to 20x), 3) Can easily go short, 4) No KYC or brokerage account needed, 5) Self-custodial (your wallet, your funds), 6) No voting rights or dividends, 7) Funding rate costs for holding positions.

Yes. Gold (XAU) and Silver (XAG) are available as perpetual futures on Hyperliquid. These commodity perps give you 24/7 leveraged exposure to precious metals without needing physical custody. Trade gold and silver alongside stocks and crypto from a single interface.
