What is a perpetual future?

A perp is a futures contract with no expiry date. Instead of settling, it uses a funding rate paid between longs and shorts to keep its price anchored to spot — so you can hold a leveraged long or short position open indefinitely.

How is perps trading different from spot?

Spot is buying the asset outright. Perps let you go long or short with leverage and pay/earn funding instead of owning anything — more capital-efficient and two-directional, but leverage and funding make risk management essential.

How do I trade perps with an edge?

Trade a backtested, scored strategy instead of guessing: Signalview compresses each perps strategy into one number and a non-custodial AI agent can execute it 24/7, so you're not relying on watching the chart at the right moment.

Perps Trading — Perpetual Futures with Signals & AI Agents

What perps trading is and how to do it with an edge: backtested perpetuals signals scored into one number, executed 24/7 by non-custodial AI agents.

Perps trading — trading perpetual futures — lets you go long or short crypto with leverage and no expiry date. Instead of settling like a dated future, perps use a funding rate paid between longs and shorts to keep the contract price anchored to spot. That makes them the most liquid way to trade direction in crypto, and the most unforgiving: leverage, funding and 24/7 markets punish unmanaged positions.

Signalview is built for exactly that problem. Every perps strategy on the platform is backtested over 18 months and compressed into one TradingView-style score, so you trade evidence instead of indicator soup — and a non-custodial AI agent can execute it on Hyperliquid around the clock so you're never asleep at the wheel.
