Key takeaways

  • Nado combines spot and perpetual execution in a unified-margin environment on Ink.
  • Perpetual trading adds leverage, funding, liquidation, and liquidity risk.
  • Verify order state and account exposure at the venue, not only in an application notification.

What a perpetual is

A perpetual contract tracks an underlying market without a fixed expiry date. Traders can go long or short, often with leverage.

Leverage increases both gains and losses. Liquidation risk is central to any perpetual trading workflow.

What Otomate adds

Otomate combines venue access, wallet-aware controls, strategy tooling, alerts, and AI-assisted research in one interface.

The goal is not to remove risk. The goal is to make execution and monitoring clearer.

Risk checks that matter

Before opening or automating a position, users should check market liquidity, leverage, liquidation distance, fees, funding, and position size.

FAQ

Can perps be liquidated?

Yes. Leveraged positions can be liquidated if margin is insufficient.

Does Otomate guarantee execution?

No. Execution depends on connected protocols, market conditions, wallet state, and transaction confirmation.

Methodology

Reviewed against official product and protocol documentation. Product availability and specifications can change.

  • Prioritize first-party product and protocol documentation over affiliate lists or performance claims.
  • Compare custody, permissions, execution model, risk controls, and exit paths before feature breadth.
  • Describe product architecture rather than rank expected returns. Historical performance is not a forecast.
