### Pre-Trade Compliance & Connectivity Verification

* Security Credential Validation: Ensure that your Web3 wallet is securely linked and that the corresponding API Key for your Hyperliquid account is in an Active state.
* Access the Trading Floor: Log in to the HyperAlpha trading terminal and navigate to the core 【Trade】 interface.
* Global Language Selection: To adjust the viewport language, use the locale selector in the upper right-hand corner of the terminal to toggle freely between \[ 繁體中文 / English / 한국어 ].

### Step 1: Browse TradFi Assets & Execute Cross-Module Capital Routing

#### 1. Locate Traditional US Stock Assets (TradFi Perps)

* Navigate to the asset/ticker selector located in the upper left-hand corner of the page.
* Open the dropdown menu and select the \[TradFi ] category tab to choose the specific underlying stock you intend to trade.

#### 2. Execute Cross-Module Capital Clearing Routing (Vault Routing)

Because individual derivative modules on the Hyperliquid underlying ledger utilize isolated margin pools, you must scroll down to the asset balance section to align your collateral before placing an order:

* Standard Route: Deposit USDC directly from your spot wallet into the dedicated US stock derivative module account perps-xyz.
* Cross-Module Clearing Route: If your USDC capital is currently held within other derivative accounts (such as perps-km), you must first transfer it back to your Spot wallet, and then execute a secondary deposit into the perps-xyz module to unlock your TradFi purchasing power.

### Step 2: Initialize the On-Chain Trading Console

* In the central viewport area, switch the interaction tab from \[Chart ] to the \[Place Order ] panel.
* If this is your account's first time initializing an interaction with this specific TradFi asset module, click the \[Enable Trading] button to complete the on-chain security authorization and activate your trading console.

### Step 3: Configure Margin Configurations & Leverage Bounds

Based on your capital management framework and risk appetite, configure your rigid risk boundaries at the top of the console:

* Cross Margin Mode : All available USDC balances within the global perps-xyz module account are shared as aggregate margin. This mitigates liquidation risks driven by extreme systemic volatility and is optimized for medium-to-long-term momentum positions.
* Isolated Margin Mode : Rigidly locks the maximum downside risk of this specific stock position to its allocated initial margin. Risks across separate positions are fully insulated, making this ideal for high-leverage (intra-day) high-frequency breakout strategies.
* Leverage Multiplier Adjustment : Drag the step-less slider or manually input a precise numerical value to adjust your execution leverage. Note: Maximum leverage bounds scale uniquely across different equity asset layers, aligning 100% with native Hyperliquid ledger rules.

### Step 4: Select Algorithmic Order Types

HyperAlpha seamlessly synchronizes and natively passes through the order state machine of the underlying Hyperliquid matching engine, supporting three core operational modes:

<img src="/files/RQvIfCG0zpKlPCa9ZNm1" alt="" height="421" width="195">

* Market Order : Triggers a microsecond-level execution flow, instantly matching your position against the global order book at the best available price. This is optimal for rapidly capturing sudden price breakouts.
* Limit Order : Specifies your exact desired entry price. The order will only be broadcast to the block once the market price matches or improves upon this pre-set value, minimizing slippage friction during position entry.
* Advanced Conditional Order : Built-in algorithmic logic combinations including Take Profit / Stop Loss (TP/SL), Reduce-Only parameters, and Time-In-Force parameters (GTC/IOC), fully matching native exchange validation logic.

### Step 5: Establish the Direction of Your Directional Exposure

Align your trade execution with your quantitative research model or signal streams from the sentiment/trend tracking engines:

* Bullish Outlook / Upside Exposure: Click the \[Buy Long ] button.
* Bearish Outlook / Downside Exposure: Click the \[Sell Short ] button.

### Step 6: Define Notional Position Size & Broadcast to Ledger

#### 1. Input Token/Asset Quantity

* In the numerical amount field, specify the target size of your trade in terms of synthetic asset share counts or the aggregate notional principal value.

#### 2. Immutable Wind Control Restrictions

* ⚠️ Minimum Order Threshold: To comply with the strict risk boundaries of the Hyperliquid matching system, a single transaction's minimum order value must be greater than or equal to 10 USDC. Any instructional payloads falling below this floor will be immediately Rejected by the system layer.

#### 3. Dispatch to Matching Queue

* Perform a final validation of all parameters on the console dashboard (including estimated liquidation price, projected slippage model, and margin allocation requirements). Once verified, click the \[Place Order ] button at the base of the interface to broadcast your instruction to the decentralized matching queue with millisecond-level propagation speed.

An opportunity missed does not constitute a loss. Trading derivatives involves extreme risk. Operate strictly within your verified risk tolerance boundaries.
