Say Goodbye to Roundtripping π
Introducing Trailing Stop Loss, the newest tool in Jupiter Limit Orders.
Old Stop Loss: You buy SOL at $50, set a stop at $45. SOL pumps to $90.
If it dumps, your profits roundtrip into a loss.
Trailing Stop Loss goes up with the price, protecting your profits:
> Set a % trail (0.5% to 90%), instead of a price
> Your stop loss rises as the price rises
> Zero extra fees
> Works with all SPL & Token-2022 (except transfer-fee tokens)
Same trade with TSL: SOL runs to $90, your stop trails up to $81. But when it dips, you auto-sell at $81.
Most stop losses protect your losers. This one ALSO protects your winners.
Just Use Trailing Stop Loss
Hyperliquid has quietly achieved an important milestone of becoming the most liquid venue for crypto price discovery in the world. See below for side by side comparison of BTC perps on Binance (left) and Hyperliquid (right).
With HIP-3 teams leading the way, Hyperliquid has also grown to become the most liquid venue for perps on tradfi assets. Thank you to everyone's hard work as we upgrade the financial system and house all of finance.
Introducing: Drift v3
Drift has built through bull and bear to deliver one thing: a better trading experience.
Today, Drift v3 goes live. A modern redesign with 10x faster execution.
Built to outperform.
On Hyperliquid, there is no listing fee, no listing department, and no gatekeepers.
Spot deployment on Hyperliquid is permissionless. Anyone can deploy a spot asset by paying a gas fee in HYPE. Deployers can choose to receive up to 50% of trading fees on their spot pairs. Everything is transparent and verifiable onchain.
The full defi lifecycle includes building a project, launching a token, and trading that token. Every step of that journey can be done permissionlessly on Hyperliquid.
Welcome @RedotPay β the physical and virtual card that lets you use stablecoins on Solana to pay at 120m merchants around the globe οΏ½οΏ½
Works with Apple Pay and Google Pay. Live now with USDC and USDT support!
Reminder: the Hyperliquid dev team does not profit from increased activity as it does not collect trading fees. On the contrary, it is entirely self-funded with exponentially increasing burn. There is not a single private investor.
>$25M of revenue has gone back to the community through HLP. Another project could have easily pocketed some or all of these profits.
Whatβs the point of all this? To build something that really matters. When finance moves onchain, it will bring trillions of dollars of value to billions of users. It wonβt move for a half-baked system, but the Hyperliquid L1 has a shot.
Some users think that Hyperliquid is already a complete platform. This is flattering, and the Hyperliquid community is indeed one-of-a-kind!
But as someone spending most waking moments pushing Hyperliquid to its full potential, Iβm confident that there is a long way to go. In particular, the following are all complex, multi-phase undertakings:
1) deploying the native EVM
2) seamlessly integrating the EVM with existing native components (e.g., order books)
3) fully decentralizing the networkΒ
On top of that, the following are continuously being improved:
1) high TPS and low latency L1 with HyperBFT consensus
2) performant financial primitives including fully onchain spot and perp order books, vaults, oracles, automated liquidity and account abstractions
3) state-of-the-art and community-owned order book liquidity via HLP
When you see a 100x, you drop everything to make that a reality. Factors of <2 are insignificant. Big things take time to build, but nothing else is worth building.
Gm DXB, Shard Dubai Demo Day is happening on Oct 19!
Gladly introducing @D2YExchange - A decentralised order-book based options exchange built on Arbitrum.

In options trading, πππ π is the Greek that measures sensitivity to implied volatility. Implied volatility represents the market's forecast of an asset's price movement.
πππ π quantifies how much an option's price changes with a one-point shift in implied volatility.
Delta measures a snapshot, while πππ¦π¦π captures the rate of change in an option's Delta over time.
In simpler terms, πππ¦π¦π is how the Delta of an option changes with every $1 movement in the underlying asset price.
For example, let's say we start with an option Delta of .40. If the asset moves by $1 and the option moves $.40 alongside it, the Delta will no longer be 0.40. Why?
Because this movement pushes the Call option further into the money (ITM), causing its Delta to shift closer to 1.00. So, assuming the new Delta becomes 0.55 as a result, the change from 0.40 to 0.55 represents the option's πππ¦π¦π: 0.15.
ππ‘πππ Ο΄ reveals the daily decline of an option's price as it approaches expiration, assuming everything else remains constant. We call this gradual deterioration over time "time decay."
But here's the kicker: Time-value erosion is not a straight line. As expiration looms closer, at-the-money (ATM) and slightly out-of-the-money options (OOTM) experience increased price erosion.
On the flip side, far out-of-the-money (OOTM) options see a decrease in erosion as expiration approaches.
Have a good weekend and we will continue with the final 3 Greeks next week!
Unlocking the Greeks of options! Here's what you need to know with the first in the series:
πππ₯ππ measures how much an option's price moves for every $1 change in the underlying asset.
For instance, a Delta of 0.40 means the option's price could jump by $0.40 with each $1 shift in the asset's value.
