Complete Guide to Trading On-Chain Perpetuals on Ave.ai
I. Connect Your Wallet and Log In to the Contract Account
After entering Ave.ai on desktop, first select the [Contracts] module from the top navigation bar. Then click [Connect Wallet] in the upper-right corner. Ave.ai will connect directly to a supported browser wallet. The platform supports major wallet extensions such as OKX Wallet, MetaMask, and more.
Using OKX Wallet as an example:
Click Connect
The wallet will pop up a signature request
Click Confirm Signature
Return to the page and click [Log In to Contract Account]
When [My Contract Account] appears on the right side of the interface, it means:
✅ Wallet connected successfully
✅ Contract account activated
The essence of this step is to establish the mapping between your on-chain wallet funds and the trading system.
II. Deposit and Withdraw Funds (Move Capital into the Contract Account)Click [Deposit], then select the asset to deposit (typically USDT). Next, choose the network. Ave.ai currently recommends BNB Chain first, because it offers lower gas fees and faster transaction speed.The interface will display:
Maximum depositable amount
Click [Enable]
Your wallet will pop up an Approve transaction
Confirm it
The purpose of this authorization is to allow the contract to access your USDT balance. After approval is completed, confirm the deposit transaction again, and the funds will enter your contract account.
III. Core Pre-Trade Analysis Workflow
Professional trading is not about clicking buy. It starts with market analysis first.
1️⃣ Select the Trading PairChoose the asset in the upper-left corner, for example BTCUSD Perpetual.
For beginners, it is generally better to start with:
Major coins
High liquidity
Strong depth
Lower wick manipulation risk
2️⃣ Analyze Chart Structure
Switch timeframes based on trading style:
Short-term trading → 5m / 15m
Swing trading → 1h / 4h
Focus on three core elements:
Trend direction
Higher highs → uptrend
Lower lows → downtrend
Support and resistance
Levels where price repeatedly bounces → support
Levels where price repeatedly gets rejected → resistance
Volume
A breakout is only considered valid when it comes with increased volume.
3️⃣ Observe Order Book Liquidity
Look at the depth panel on the right:
Thick buy walls → short-term support
Thick sell walls → short-term resistance
This helps you judge whether the market is vulnerable to sharp pumps or dumps.
IV. Set Trading Parameters (The Step That Determines Survival)Position Mode Selection
For beginners, Isolated Margin is generally recommended because:
Maximum loss per trade is capped
One bad trade will not wipe out the entire account
