Trade Apple (AAPL) as a perpetual contract on Hyperliquid — 24/7, on-chain, up to 20x leverage.
AAPL was part of TradeXYZ’s first wave of HIP-3 single-stock perpetuals. The market tracks Apple common stock via oracle during US trading hours, then floats freely on the Hyperliquid order book overnight and on weekends with hourly funding pulling it back toward the reference. Settlement is USDC, max leverage 20x. AAPL’s deep liquidity in traditional markets translates to consistent on-chain price discovery during HL’s 24/7 operation, and the perp is popular for hedging long spot positions, directional bets, and pair trades against semis or other mega-caps. Margin requirements follow HL’s standard tiering. The perp inherits Apple’s relatively low realized volatility compared to growth names like TSLA, making it a common building block for lower-vol portfolios.

AAPL stock pays dividends and gives voting rights; the perpetual does not. The perp gives 24/7 directional exposure with leverage and no holding period — better for short/medium-term trading than long-term holding.
Funding is computed hourly from the gap between perpetual price and an oracle reference. When the perp trades above the oracle, longs pay shorts; below, shorts pay longs. The rate is small per hour (typically ±0.01% range) but compounds over a 24-hour period. The exact mechanics match Hyperliquid’s standard perpetual funding model.
Hyperliquid perpetuals trade 24/7. Off-hours (overnight, weekends, holidays), the perp may diverge from the underlying spot price since traditional markets are closed and price discovery happens here. Funding pulls the perp back toward the oracle over time.
