Risks

Bastion is built to keep traders in the trade. It cannot make trading safe. Here is what can still go wrong.

Leverage

Perpetual futures can lose your whole margin quickly. Higher leverage puts liquidation closer. Bastion does not change that.

Guardian's limits

Guardian can only add what your idle balance and cap allow. A gap move, an exchange halt, an API outage or network delay can let a position be liquidated before it acts.

Wick-guarded stops fire later

Waiting 30 seconds avoids closing on a spike, but in a real move the stop fills at a worse price than an instant stop would. You can turn it off per order.

Funding can turn

The idle yield comes from funding, which changes hourly and can go negative. Then the short pays instead of earning, until the engine rotates away.

Hedge risk

The spot long and perp short cancel only while both legs hold. A depeg of a bridged asset such as UBTC, UETH or USOL, or a thin spot book during a rebalance, can cause losses.

Hyperliquid itself

Funds and positions live on Hyperliquid. Its chain, oracle, liquidation engine and bridges carry their own risks, which Bastion cannot remove.

Agent keys

An agent key cannot withdraw, but a stolen trading key could place bad trades. Keep your device safe and revoke keys you no longer use.

Software

Bastion's keeper and front end are new software and may have bugs. A global kill switch exists to stop the keeper if something looks wrong.

$BASTION

The token can lose most or all of its value. Buybacks depend on trading volume and are not a promise of any price.

Rules where you live

Perpetual futures are restricted in some countries. You are responsible for whether you may use them.

Nothing on this site is financial advice. Only trade what you can afford to lose.
