Connect on mainnet
Open Trade and connect a compatible wallet. Longitude runs on Robinhood Chain Mainnet. The app will ask you to switch networks if your wallet is connected elsewhere.
Your first Longitude trade.
This guide explains the interface in plain language. Longitude is in a controlled mainnet private beta, so trading stays locked until your access is approved and the protocol is active.
Before you begin
What you need
- A compatible browser wallet.
- Robinhood Chain Mainnet selected in your wallet.
- ETH for transaction and execution fees.
- USDG for collateral or a vault deposit.
Check the market
Choose a market and confirm its live oracle price, market status, available liquidity, and open interest. Do not submit an order when its market is closed or its price is stale.
Set the trade
Choose Long if you expect the price to rise or Short if you expect it to fall. Enter collateral, select leverage, and review position size, fees, slippage, and liquidation risk before approving.
Submit and monitor
Confirm the wallet transaction, then watch Pending Orders. Submission does not mean execution: the keeper must execute the order and the final status must appear on-chain.
Vaults
Providing liquidity
Vault depositors provide the liquidity used to pay profitable traders. Deposits receive vault shares whose value can rise from fees or fall when traders profit. Review total assets, reserved liquidity, utilization, and the withdrawal preview before signing.
A vault is not a savings account. Withdrawals can be constrained by reserved liquidity, and smart-contract, oracle, keeper, liquidity, chain, and trader-profit risks remain.
Leverage amplifies losses as well as gains.
A perpetual position can lose all posted margin. Start with a small position, use low leverage, set explicit slippage, and never trade money you cannot afford to lose.
