What is OrbDex?

OrbDex is a decentralized exchange (DEX) that allows users to trade perpetual futures contracts with leverage directly from their personal wallets. Built on Orderly Network infrastructure, OrbDex offers high-speed execution, deep liquidity, and a robust risk engine in a self-custodial environment. Traders can:
Open long or short positions with leverage.
Manage risk with built-in Stop-Loss and Take-Profit orders.
Retain full control of their assets through wallet-based authentication.
Zero Fee Perps with Privacy
OrbDex is designed for both novice and advanced traders who value transparency, security, and a smooth on-chain trading experience.
