Stocks, gold, indices and currencies on Hyperliquid, from a Telegram chat
Stocks reach Hyperliquid through HIP-3 markets: a third-party dex deploys a perpetual contract, margined and settled in USDC, indexed to the price of a share, a metal or an index. StratiDex lists 128 of them, NVDA included at up to 20x leverage, next to 177 native crypto markets. You never own the share — you hold a derivative, and you can lose the money you put behind it.

HIP-3, in one paragraph
HIP-3 is the Hyperliquid rule that lets a third party deploy its own perpetual market. Four such deployers are represented on StratiDex: xyz, io, mkts and para. The contract itself stays a Hyperliquid perpetual — margined in USDC, settled in USDC, traded from the same account and the same balance as BTC.
So a market named NVDA is not a Nvidia share sitting in a broker account. It is a perpetual contract indexed to the Nvidia share price. Your result is the price move, in USDC, on the size you opened — in both directions.
StratiDex lists 305 markets today: 177 native Hyperliquid crypto markets and 128 HIP-3 markets. The full list, with leverage cap, margin mode, deployer, deployer fee share and real taker fee, sits at /markets and as an open dataset at /data/markets.json (CC BY 4.0).
What you get, and what you do not
- You get: USDC exposure to the price of NVDA, gold, the S&P 500 or the euro, long or short, with the leverage the market allows.
- You get: one account and one balance, created inside the Telegram conversation, in your name on Hyperliquid, with an exportable private key.
- You do not get: the share. No ownership, no dividend, no voting right, no corporate action.
- You do not get: a market run by StratiDex. A HIP-3 market is deployed and configured by a third-party dex; its parameters, and its availability, belong to that deployer.
- You do not get: automatic protection. StratiDex has no stop-loss and no take-profit. A price alert is a message, not an order.
Selling is symmetric. A sell on the NVDA market opens a short perpetual in USDC; you borrow no share and hold no security.
Two consequences worth sitting with. Nothing closes a position for you while you are away, and the parameters that decide how a HIP-3 market behaves are set by its deployer, not by us. The market page on /markets and the risk page on /risks are where you check both before you size anything.
The families of markets, and their leverage
Five families cover the 128 HIP-3 markets.
| Family | Real examples on StratiDex | Leverage |
|---|---|---|
| Stocks | NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, INTC, MU, SMSN | up to 20x on NVDA; cap set market by market |
| Commodities | gold, silver, WTI and Brent crude, gas, copper, platinum, uranium | set per market |
| Indices | S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, Russell 2000, XYZ100 | set per market |
| Currencies | EUR, JPY, KRW | set per market |
| Pre-IPO | OpenAI, Anthropic, SpaceX | set per market |
| Native crypto (reference) | BTC, ETH | up to 40x on BTC |
The cap belongs to the market, not to StratiDex; some markets go as high as 50x. The bot reads the real cap, so no button offers a level the market refuses. Size opens at 2x by default. A few markets accept isolated margin only, while most accept cross or isolated. The exact figure per ticker is on its market page, reachable from /markets, and in /data/markets.json.
The real cost: 9 bp of venue fee on almost every HIP-3 market
On almost every HIP-3 market the venue fee is double. Hyperliquid charges 4.5 bp per taker order (0.15 bp maker) on its native markets, and its documentation lets a HIP-3 deployer configure an additional fee share between 0 and 300% of the protocol fee. On 7 September 2026, 127 of the 128 HIP-3 markets sit at 100%, so their taker fee is 9 bp, not 4.5. One market, deployed by para, sits at 50%, or 6.75 bp. Our own commission stays at 9 bp everywhere.
| Cost at entry | Native market (BTC, ETH) | HIP-3 at 100% (NVDA, gold, S&P 500) |
|---|---|---|
| StratiDex commission | 9 bp | 9 bp |
| Hyperliquid taker fee | 4.5 bp | 9 bp |
| Standard total | 9 bp + 4.5 bp venue | 9 bp + 9 bp venue |
| Total with a referral link (−10% on our 9 bp) | 8.1 bp + 4.5 bp | 8.1 bp + 9 bp |
| On top of that | the spread | the spread |
- No subscription, and no commission on your gains.
- Withdrawal to Arbitrum: $1, charged by Hyperliquid. Transfer to another Hyperliquid account: free.
- Deposit: USDC on Arbitrum One only, credited from 5 USDC; below that the Hyperliquid bridge refuses and the money stays on the Arbitrum address. The bridge deposit consumes Arbitrum gas, billed in USDC.
- Minimum order: $11. Twenty to fifty dollars is a comfortable start.
Those shares are the ones read on 7 September 2026. StratiDex reads the deployer share on each market at the time of the order and shows the real total on the confirmation screen, before you validate. Full detail is on /pricing.
From zero to an NVDA position
- Open @stratidex_bot on Telegram. The account is created inside the conversation, in your name on Hyperliquid, in a Privy wallet. The private key is exportable at any time.
- Send USDC on Arbitrum One to your deposit address. Nothing else is credited, and anything under 5 USDC is refused by the bridge and stays on the Arbitrum address.
- Find the market: type its name, browse the list, or follow a deep link that opens it ready to confirm. That is the first tap.
- Pick a direction, buy or sell — both open a perpetual. That is the second tap.
- Set the size, $11 minimum, and the leverage: it starts at 2x and is capped at what the market allows, 20x on NVDA. That is the third tap.
- Read the confirmation screen before anything is sent: exact liquidation price, and total cost with fees included. Then validate.
Leverage, protection and who holds the funds
Leverage cuts both ways. At 20x, a move of roughly 5% against you erases the margin. The confirmation screen gives the exact liquidation price for the position you are about to open — that figure is the one to trust, not a rule of thumb, and it is on screen before you validate.
There is no automatic safety net behind you. Price alerts (±2/5/10% steps or a free price) and the 5%/h move alert tell you something happened; they never place an order. If you are not there, nothing closes the position for you.
StratiDex places orders with a Hyperliquid agent key. The protocol forbids an agent key from withdrawing: it can open, close and read, never withdraw. The wallet is locked by a Privy policy. Withdrawals, however, go through StratiDex servers — that is the trust point, and it is stated in full on /security.
The bot asks for no identity document. That is not a way around any rule: Hyperliquid's restricted jurisdictions still apply, and checking that trading derivatives is legal where you live is on you. Risk detail is on /risks, the 305 markets on /markets.
FAQ
Can you really trade stocks on Hyperliquid?
Yes, through HIP-3 markets. A third-party dex deploys a perpetual contract indexed to the share price, margined and settled in USDC. StratiDex lists 128 such markets next to 177 native crypto markets, NVDA included at up to 20x leverage.
Do I own the share when I buy NVDA on Hyperliquid?
No. You hold a perpetual contract. There is no dividend, no voting right and no share certificate. Your result is the price move in USDC on the size you opened, up or down.
How much does it cost to trade a HIP-3 market?
9 bp of StratiDex commission per executed order, plus the Hyperliquid taker fee: 4.5 bp on a native crypto market, and 9 bp on the 127 HIP-3 markets set at a 100% fee share. Then the spread. A referral link cuts our 9 bp to 8.1 bp for life, on every market.
Are HIP-3 stock markets open all the time?
Do not assume so. A HIP-3 market is deployed and configured by a third-party dex, not by StratiDex, and availability is its deployer's call — check the market page from /markets. What is certain on our side: there is no stop-loss and no take-profit, so nothing closes a position for you while you are away.
What leverage can I use on NVDA?
Up to 20x, the cap set by that market. StratiDex opens at 2x by default and reads the real cap, so no button offers a level the market refuses. BTC goes to 40x and some markets reach 50x.
Do I need a broker account or KYC?
No brokerage account: the position lives on Hyperliquid in a wallet created in your name, with an exportable key. The bot asks for no identity document, which is not a way around any rule — Hyperliquid's restricted jurisdictions apply, and you check the law where you live.
