FAQ

Common questions about VibeTrade, grouped by topic.

General​

Is VibeTrade free?​

The application itself is free to use. Trading is subject to the network's standard fee schedule.

Which markets are supported?​

Spot and Perpetual markets on the underlying blockchain network. VibeTrade does not connect to centralized exchanges.

How is my wallet handled?​

VibeTrade does not custody your funds. When you connect a wallet, a trading session is created that can sign trade and account-management actions on your behalf — it cannot withdraw funds or move balances out of your wallet.

How do I try VibeTrade without risking real funds?​

Switch the NETWORK selector in CONSOLE → GENERAL from Mainnet to Testnet. The testnet has its own balance and lets you exercise every part of the order flow without risking real funds. Switching reloads the page and requires a fresh agent approval.

Trading​

What order types are supported today?​

  • Market — submitted as an aggressive IOC limit so it crosses the book and fills against available liquidity.
  • Limit — rests in the book at your price, with a GTC, IOC, or ALO (post-only) time-in-force.
  • Stop — triggers a market order when the mark price crosses your trigger.
  • Reduce-only — restricts an order to reducing the existing position.
  • Position-level Take Profit and Stop Loss — configured from the position card in the Positions tab.

See TRADE for the full panel reference.

What is the difference between Cross and Isolated margin?​

ModeDefinition
CrossMaintenance margin is evaluated against the entire perp account.
IsolatedThe position is collateralized by an isolated allocation; only that allocation is at risk.

Both modes are switchable per market on the order panel.

How do I close a position?​

From the Positions tab in TRADE you can:

  • Close a position with a single tap-to-arm followed by confirmation.
  • Partial close at 25 / 50 / 75 / 100 % with a slide-to-confirm slider.
  • Close All to close every visible position with one action.

For watched addresses, position management actions are read-only.

How do I cancel orders?​

Each order card has a slide-to-confirm cancel control. Above the list, Cancel All cancels every order visible under the current filter (Active, or SL / TP).

How is my fee tier shown?​

On ASSET → ACCOUNT, each account row shows a small inline VIP-tier badge next to the address. The full breakdown — maker / taker rates for Perp and Spot, 30-day volume, gap-to-next-tier, and any staking or referral discount — is shown in the trader detail view (select an address to open it), under the Fee Info dropdown.

Account​

How do I change the theme?​

CONSOLE → GENERAL → Theme. Choose System, Light, or Dark; the change applies immediately.

Can I manage signed-in devices?​

CONSOLE → GENERAL shows a read-only line identifying your current device (device name · IP). Managing or signing out other devices is not available in the current build.

How do I add a watched address?​

Open ASSET, choose the + in the address strip at the top, and paste an Ethereum address. The address is checksum-validated. Watched addresses are read-only — VibeTrade reads their account state but cannot sign trades on their behalf.

What does the Sync delayed badge mean?​

A short stretch where polling or the WebSocket missed an update. Live data resumes automatically; you do not need to refresh the page.

System​

How do I know the exchange is healthy?​

A small status indicator on the dashboard reflects the result of a regular exchangeStatus probe (about every 30 seconds). When the exchange is unhealthy for two consecutive probes, a sticky toast appears so the issue is visible while the page is open. Clicking the toast forces a cache refresh.

Where are the docs hosted?​

The documentation site mirrors the application's navigation and is built from the docs/ directory in the repository.
