TREE NEWS update: Hyperliquid said its perpetual futures market now supports trailing stop orders. The trigger price adjusts with the mark price as long as the move favors the position, and a market order fires when the mark price retraces a set distance or percentage from its best level — the highest mark price since activation for longs, the lowest for shorts. Users can set an activation price to decide when tracking begins; without one, tracking starts immediately at the current mark price.
Hyperliquid Adds Trailing Stop Orders to Perpetual Futures
Trailing stops are a standard risk-management primitive on centralized derivatives venues, so their arrival on a decentralized perpetuals platform is less about novelty than about closing a functional gap that has kept some systematic and active traders on the sidelines. The design ties triggers to mark price rather than last trade, which matters on thinner books where wicks can be misleading. The open question is whether this pulls more sophisticated order flow onto the venue and how it changes liquidation dynamics when many trailing stops cluster near the same levels.
