Real-Time Risk Monitoring

Within perpetual DEX development, real-time risk monitoring is essential for maintaining platform stability and safeguarding trader assets. This feature continuously monitors traders' positions and account balances, promptly identifying potential risks such as margin deficiencies or excessive exposure. By leveraging real-time data analytics and risk assessment algorithms, the platform can take necessary actions, including margin calls or liquidations, to mitigate risks and protect traders from significant losses, thereby fostering trust and confidence among users.

Price Index Feeds

Perpetual DEX platforms integrate reliable price index feeds from multiple reputable sources to ensure accurate price discovery and reduce the risk of manipulation. These price index feeds serve as a reference point for determining contract settlement prices and maintaining consistency across the platform. By sourcing data from diverse and trusted sources, the platform enhances transparency, reduces the likelihood of price manipulation, and provides traders with reliable market information, ultimately promoting fair and efficient trading conditions.

Collateral Management

Collateral management is a critical aspect of perpetual DEX development, aimed at efficiently managing trader collateral to minimize the risk of default. This feature ensures that the collateral provided by traders adequately covers their positions and maintains a sufficient margin buffer to withstand market fluctuations. By implementing robust collateral management mechanisms, such as automated margin calls and collateral rebalancing, the platform can effectively mitigate counterparty risk, protect the integrity of the trading ecosystem, and ensure the timely settlement of trades, fostering a secure and resilient trading environment.

Dynamic Position Limits

Perpetual DEX platforms dynamically adjust position limits based on various factors such as account balance, trading volume, and prevailing market conditions. This feature enables the platform to adapt to changing risk profiles and market dynamics, ensuring that traders' exposure remains within manageable levels. By implementing dynamic position limits, the platform promotes responsible trading behavior, prevents excessive risk-taking, and enhances overall risk management effectiveness, thereby safeguarding the interests of traders and maintaining platform stability.

Stop Loss/Take Profit Orders

Stop loss and take profit orders are essential risk management tools offered by perpetual DEX platforms. These orders allow traders to set predefined price levels at which their positions will be automatically liquidated (stop loss) or profit-taking orders executed (take profit). By enabling traders to automate risk management strategies, such as cutting losses or locking in profits, these orders help mitigate downside risks and optimize trading outcomes. Additionally, stop loss and take profit orders enhance trading discipline, reduce emotional decision-making, and improve overall risk-adjusted returns for traders, contributing to a more efficient and sustainable trading ecosystem.

How We Work

Requirements Collection

We clarify project goals, objectives, and scope. If initial requirements are incomplete, we help collect all necessary information to ensure nothing is missed before moving forward.

Technical Specifications Drafting

Our CTO analyzes your requirements, identifies technical constraints, and produces a preliminary specification that supports the following estimation and proposed development workflow.

Timeline and Cost Estimation

Our tech leads decompose the scope into system components and estimate hours across the stack. Based on this breakdown, we define the execution plan, stage deliverables, and pricing model — Fixed-Price for clear requirements, or Time and Material for evolving scope.

Development

The team moves into active development based on the approved plan, building and integrating all scoped components in parallel. Work follows the agreed workflow and milestones, with regular checkpoints to keep progress aligned with requirements.

Testing and Validation

The system is deployed to a testnet environment, where all components are tested against the technical specifications and expected scenarios. A testnet version is delivered for your team to review, validate behavior, and confirm alignment before mainnet deployment.

Mainnet deployment

After testnet validation, the system is deployed to mainnet following the agreed release plan. We handle production configuration, final checks, and hand over the deployed system along with documentation and ongoing support terms, if required.
