This cross-margin capability, combined with institutional-grade order matching and deep liquidity, positions Vertex as the premier trading venue for both retail and professional traders seeking sophisticated DeFi trading tools.
Unified margin account allowing collateral to be shared across spot, perpetuals, and lending positions for optimal capital efficiency.
Combines the efficiency of central limit order books with the liquidity of AMMs, providing the best execution for all trade sizes.

Connect a Web3 wallet like MetaMask, WalletConnect, or Coinbase Wallet to the Vertex Protocol interface. Ensure you're connected to the Arbitrum network for optimal performance and low fees.
Fund your Vertex account by depositing supported assets. Your deposited collateral becomes available across all trading products - spot, perpetuals, and lending markets.
Set up your trading parameters including leverage preferences, default order types, and risk management settings. Familiarize yourself with the unified trading interface.
Start with spot trading to get comfortable, then explore perpetuals and cross-margin capabilities. Utilize the advanced order types for sophisticated trading strategies.
Use the unified portfolio dashboard to monitor all positions across products. Set up alerts and utilize risk management tools to protect your capital.
If experiencing wallet connection issues, ensure you're on the Arbitrum network. Clear your browser cache and try reconnecting. For MetaMask, check that you've approved the connection and haven't reached the simultaneous connection limit. Try using WalletConnect as an alternative connection method.
Failed transactions are often due to insufficient gas or network congestion. Ensure you have enough ETH on Arbitrum for gas fees. Increase gas limits during high network activity. Check that you're not exceeding position limits or attempting trades that would violate risk parameters.
If facing unexpected liquidations, review your cross-margin utilization and position sizes. Use the risk calculator before opening positions. Monitor your account health score regularly and consider setting up position alerts. Ensure you understand how cross-margin affects your liquidation prices.
Deposits typically process within minutes, but may take longer during network congestion. Withdrawals require a security cooldown period. Ensure you've completed necessary verification steps and aren't exceeding withdrawal limits. Check transaction status on Arbiscan for detailed information.
