Execution safety

Position sizes map cleanly to exchange orders.

You choose a risk per trade and a stop distance but struggle to convert those inputs into concrete order sizes and leverage on an exchange. Manual calculations and copy paste lead to rounding errors, wrong quantity units, and orders that exceed intended exposure. Bots amplify these mistakes: a single mismatch between sizing rules and exchange parameters can open much larger positions than you planned. You also lack simple pre deployment checks to catch API key permission problems, insufficient margin, or symbol lot size rules before real orders hit the account.

Liquid Edge runs your sizing logic and places matching orders on the exchange account you already hold.

Translate sizing to ordersWhen you deploy a bot Liquid Edge takes the sizing output from your strategy and converts it into exchange order parameters, quantity, price, and leverage, then places those orders on your account using your API keys.
Pre deploy sanity checksBefore a bot executes Liquid Edge verifies that proposed order sizes comply with the exchange account limits and API key permissions and flags or rejects orders that would violate lot size, minimum order, or leverage constraints.
We never get withdrawal rights. Anywhere.On a perp DEX your funds sit in an isolated onchain vault only you can withdraw from. On a centralized exchange the exchange custodies them and we connect with API permissions limited to trading. Neither route lets Liquid Edge move your capital.
