Product states
Market information
Public market, account and blockchain information can be delayed, incomplete, stale or unavailable. It is not investment, legal or tax advice and is not a promise of trade availability.
PAPER
PAPER is a local simulation over bounded visible market data. It does not model every fee, fill, queue, margin, funding, liquidation or outage behavior and does not submit a venue order.
Testnet
Testnet is experimental. Tokens may have no monetary value, venues may reset state, and a successful test does not establish production suitability or mainnet authority.
Live execution
Live execution remains disabled unless separate account, signer, eligibility, evidence and authorization gates are satisfied. NYTSHIFT does not claim live authority merely because software, identity or a wallet is configured.
Fees
Effective 3 October 2026. NYTSHIFT may charge a trading fee of up to 0.055% of the order value on each order you place through NYTSHIFT, including stop loss and take profit orders. When it applies, it is collected by Hyperliquid as a builder fee when an order fills, on top of Hyperliquid's own trading fees, and is not charged on an order that does not fill. You approve this fee once in your wallet; NYTSHIFT cannot charge it without that approval. The order ticket shows the current rate before you place an order.
Deposits of USDC through NYTSHIFT carry no NYTSHIFT fee. Deposits of other coins through NYTSHIFT may carry a NYTSHIFT fee of up to 0.25% of the amount. Network, bridge and provider costs are separate. Every deposit quote shows each cost before you confirm.
Terms version nytshift-terms-2026.10.03.
User responsibilities
You are responsible for protecting your wallet and API-wallet credentials, verifying every venue and network, understanding local law and venue eligibility, reviewing order details, and preserving reconciliation state after an ambiguous outcome. Do not use location-masking or other means to evade venue restrictions.
Third-party services
Arcus, Hyperliquid, Lighter, Robinhood Chain, identity providers, wallets, RPC providers and external bridges are separate services with their own terms and risks. Review the current Robinhood Chain terms and each venue's official terms before use.
No advice or guarantee
Analysis, research, alerts and agent proposals are informational. No output guarantees price, liquidity, fill, protection, profit, uptime, recoverability or regulatory availability.
