📈 Perps
Perps let you trade Polymarket perpetual markets from Olympus. They are separate from prediction-market copy trading: you manage margin, leverage, entries, exits, and protection directly from the Perps pages.
Open Perps from the app header or go directly to Perps.
What You Can Trade
Olympus supports the current Polymarket perps instruments, including crypto, equity indexes, metals, and oil.
The Perps overview page shows available markets with live prices, recent movement, and direct links into each instrument's trading view.
Trading View
Each perps market page includes:
- a live price chart
- order book and recent trades
- long and short order controls
- leverage controls
- market and limit entry support
- open-position management
Perps use separate pUSD collateral from your prediction-market balance. Use the Transfer action on the Perps view when you need to move funds between balances.
Positions And Exits
The Perps portfolio view shows your open positions, margin, estimated PnL, and position actions.
From there, you can:
- close a position
- add or edit take-profit and stop-loss protection
- monitor unrealized PnL
- refresh account state
- share a PnL image
Stop-loss and take-profit controls are risk tools, not guarantees. Fast markets, thin books, and API delays can affect execution quality.
Automation
The Perps page also includes optional RSI automation for users who want rule-based entries.
Automation rules can open a position when RSI conditions are met, then attach configured take-profit and stop-loss protection. Start small, review the rule before enabling it, and monitor activity after the first trigger.
Good Practices
- trade with size you can afford to lose
- check leverage before every order
- keep enough available collateral for open positions
- use limit orders when price discipline matters
- use stop-loss and take-profit settings as safeguards, not substitutes for monitoring
- avoid running multiple strategies on the same instrument unless you understand how net positions work
