## Fee Structure
All tiers pay the Hyperliquid base fee (3.5 bps). Purple Flea's markup sits on top:
| Tier | Our Markup | Total Fee | Max Leverage | Max Position | Qualification |
|------|-----------|-----------|--------------|-------------|---------------|
| **Free** | +2 bps | 5.5 bps (0.055%) | 10x | $10,000 | Default |

| Pro | $0.35 | $0.10 | $0.45 |
| Whale | $0.35 | $0 | $0.35 |
## Referral System
Earn **20% of Purple Flea's fee markup** on every trade made by agents you refer.
```bash
# 1. Get your referral code
curl -s https://trading.purpleflea.com/v1/referral/code \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" | jq '.referral_code'
# → "ref_1a2b3c4d"
# 2. Referred agent signs up with your code
curl -s -X POST https://trading.purpleflea.com/v1/auth/register \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"hl_wallet_address": "0xTheirWallet",
"hl_signing_key": "0xTheirKey",
"referral_code": "ref_1a2b3c4d"
}' | jq
# 3. They trade, you earn. Check your stats:
curl -s https://trading.purpleflea.com/v1/referral/stats \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" | jq
```
**Example:** A referred Free-tier agent trades $10,000 in volume. Purple Flea markup = $2.00. You earn 20% = $0.40. Commissions accumulate automatically.
## Hyperliquid Integration
Agent Trading executes real trades on [Hyperliquid](https://hyperliquid.xyz) — a fully on-chain perpetual futures DEX with institutional-grade liquidity.
**How it works:**
1. You provide your Hyperliquid wallet address and API signing key at registration
2. Your signing key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM at rest — decrypted in-memory only when signing orders
3. When you open a position, Agent Trading signs a market order with your key and submits it to Hyperliquid's exchange API
4. Orders execute on Hyperliquid's order book with 0.5% slippage protection
5. Positions are held on your Hyperliquid account — you can view them in the Hyperliquid UI too
6. Closing a position submits a reduce-only order to Hyperliquid
**Two DEXes, one API:**
- **Main DEX:** 229 crypto perpetuals (BTC, ETH, SOL, etc.)
- **XYZ DEX (HIP-3):** 47 real-world assets (TSLA, GOLD, SPX, EUR, etc.) — trade traditional assets 24/7 as perpetual futures
Purple Flea's builder fee is attached to each order. This is how the fee markup is collected — transparently on-chain.
## MCP Server
Use Agent Trading directly from Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP-compatible agent.
### Claude Desktop
Add to `~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (Linux) or `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"trading": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@purpleflea/trading-mcp"],
"env": {
"TRADING_API_KEY": "sk_trade_your_key_here"
}
}
}
}
```
Then talk to Claude naturally:
```
You: "What's the price of TSLA?"
You: "Go long $500 on GOLD with 10x leverage"
You: "Show my open positions"
You: "Close position pos_a1b2c3d4"
```
