Introduction to Ritdex Perps

What Ritdex Perps is, the wallets it supports, and how to get from a fresh wallet to your first leveraged trade — all non-custodial on Hyperliquid.

Ritdex Perps is a non-custodial trading terminal for perpetual futures, powered directly by Hyperliquid's on-chain order book. One USDC balance trades crypto, tokenized stocks, commodities, metals, FX and more — with leverage, live signals, copy-trading and automated bots layered on top.

Why Ritdex

• Non-custodial — your funds stay in your Hyperliquid account. Ritdex's trade-only agent can place orders but can never withdraw your balance (see Wallet & Security).
• One balance, every market — crypto, stocks, commodities, FX and indices from a single USDC collateral pool.
• On-chain execution — every order, fill and liquidation settles on Hyperliquid's CLOB. Ritdex adds the interface, the Ritchi-Signal, Copy Trade and Auto-Trading Bots.
• Transparent fees — a small builder fee per fill and nothing hidden. Full list on the Fees page.

Supported wallets

Ritdex is built on the OneKey wallet core, so it works with the wallet you already use:

From zero to your first trade

1. Set up a wallet — create a new one or import an existing wallet, then back up your recovery phrase (Wallet & Security).
2. Fund it with USDC — deposit or bridge USDC to your trading address (Deposits & Withdrawals).
3. Enable Trading — a one-time signature approves the Ritdex builder and creates the trade-only agent. No funds move; you just authorize order placement.
4. Learn the basics — price, margin, leverage and liquidation in Perps Basics.
5. Open a position — pick a market, set leverage, choose an order type and trade. Step-by-step in Opening a Position.
