Frequently asked questions
How is margin calculated on Hyperliquid?
Margin equals position size divided by leverage. A $5,000 HYPE position at 10x isolated margin locks $500 of collateral, and the liquidation price sits near the entry minus the margin distance divided by the position size.
What leverage should I use for a HYPE perpetual?
Choose leverage from your stop distance, not the other way around. If HYPE moves 8% intraday, a stop 6% away with 20x leverage means the liquidation sits inside normal noise — 3x to 5x keeps the liquidation far enough from your stop.
Can I track Hyperliquid whale wallets after sizing my trade?
Yes. Paste any 0x wallet into the free tracker on rustdeck.app to see its PnL, win rate, profit factor and open HYPE positions, or watch the $100K+ whale feed for live fills before you copy a trade.
