# Perpetual Trading Protocol

![](/files/xFRLEGs0WGIslACPvVJh)

## Overview

Position Exchange is introducing its Decentralized Perpetuals Trading Protocol (DPTP). A protocol that runs FULLY On-chain where there is no need for a 3rd party to maintain the Orderbook, matching engine, and offers different types of orders (Limit, Market, leveraged trading...).\
\
There is no need for users to deposit funds on the smart contract, users can trade straight from their wallets. By using on-chain order books we aim to create an efficient, fair, and trustless financial market that is not controlled by any centralized organization.<br>

**Benefits of Trading on Position Exchange:**

* Highly Intuitive: Experience speed on our protocol. Trade quickly on an easy-to-use platform.
* Increased Privacy: No sign-ups required: Simply connect your wallet and you are all set.
* More Security: Trade directly with no intermediaries. More autonomy in a decentralized environment.
* Low fees: Experience low gas fees on transactions
* Easy access: Trade directly from your wallet without the need of depositing.
