Position Ownership

Traditional exchanges

On almost every exchange, your position is an entry in a database. You can't move it, send it, or do anything with it except close it.

Power Launch positions

Power Launch positions are tokens. This means:

  • Transfer them across wallets freely
  • Use them as collateral in other protocols
  • Build on top - sub-protocols, products, and tools can compose on your open position
  • Trade the position itself - someone can buy your open position without either party closing anything, without touching the liquidity pool, without impacting the price

Perps Settlement

IMPORTANT

All perps opens, closes, and PnL settle in the underlying token, not SOL.

SOL-denominated settlement

Traders can opt into SOL-denominated settlement through the UI. When enabled, transactions route through both the spot and perps markets. Both fee layers apply (Raydium swap fee + Perps.club trading fee).
