# Managing Your Funds

## Wallet Architecture

### Login Wallet

Your MetaMask or WalletConnect wallet serves as your authentication method and holds QE tokens for fee discounts, but **never holds trading funds** to maintain maximum security and separation of concerns.

### Trading Wallet (Agent Wallet)

Created automatically by Wallet Factory and secured by Turnkey infrastructure, this wallet executes all trades on Hyperliquid DEX while remaining non-custodial - you maintain full control of the private keys.

**Why separate?** Your login wallet stays secure while the trading wallet handles all operations.

## QE Token Fee Tiers

**Fee tiers coming soon!**

Hold QE tokens in your login wallet to qualify for trading fee discounts when launched.

**Current fees (Standard Hyperliquid):**

* Maker: 0.015% rebate
* Taker: 0.0455%

**When tiers launch:** Higher QE token holdings will result in lower trading fees, with automatic tier detection and tier status visible in **Account → Fee Tier** for easy monitoring.

**Get QE tokens:** Hyperliquid DEX, Uniswap, other DEXs

## Funding Your Trading Wallet

### Add Funds

1. **Get your trading wallet address**
   * Go to **Account → Wallet**
   * Copy agent wallet address (your Hyperliquid vault)
2. **Send USDC**
   * From any wallet (MetaMask, hardware wallet, etc.)
   * Send USDC on Arbitrum network
   * Confirm transaction
3. **Bridge to Hyperliquid**
   * Use Hyperliquid bridge if needed
   * Transfer USDC to Hyperliquid L1
   * Completes in 1-2 minutes

**Supported assets:** USDC (primary trading currency)

### Balance Types

| Balance Type  | Description                       |
| ------------- | --------------------------------- |
| **Available** | Funds ready for trading           |
| **In Use**    | Locked in active positions/margin |
| **Total**     | Available + In Use                |

## Withdrawing Funds

**Before withdrawing:**

1. Stop all active bots
2. Close all open positions
3. Cancel pending orders
4. Check available balance

**Withdrawal process:**

1. Go to **Account → Wallet** → **Withdraw**
2. Enter amount and destination address
3. Confirm transaction
4. Funds sent to Arbitrum (1-2 minutes)

**Fees:** No QuantsEdge fees are charged for fund management, but Hyperliquid bridge gas fees apply for transfers, and standard network fees are required for blockchain transactions.

## Security Best Practices

**Login wallet:**

* Use hardware wallet (Ledger/Trezor recommended) for maximum security
* Never share seed phrase with anyone or store it digitally
* Keep QE tokens secure in your wallet for platform access
* Enable 2FA where possible for additional account protection

**Trading wallet:** Review all transactions weekly to verify activity is legitimate, monitor bot performance for any unexpected behavior, and regularly check balance reconciliation to ensure accuracy.

**Transaction safety:** Always double-check wallet addresses before sending funds, ensure you're using the correct network (Arbitrum), save transaction hashes for record-keeping, and start with small test transfers to verify everything works correctly.

## Common Issues

**Balance not updating:** Check if your transaction is still pending on the block explorer, wait 1-2 minutes for bridge completion, or refresh the page to update the display with the latest balance information.

**Can't use full balance:** Your funds may be locked in open positions or reserved as margin for pending orders. Close existing positions and cancel pending orders first to free up available balance for new trades.

**Bridge issues:** Check your transaction status on the block explorer, verify you're using the correct network (Arbitrum), wait 5-10 minutes for processing, and contact Hyperliquid support if issues persist.

## Transaction History

**Access:** Account → Wallet → Transaction History

**View:** Complete transaction history including deposits to agent wallet, withdrawals to external wallets, Hyperliquid bridge transactions, and all trading activity for comprehensive fund tracking.

**Export:** Download transaction data in CSV format with filtering options by date range and transaction type for detailed analysis and record-keeping.

## Capital Management

**Smart funding:** Begin with a test amount ($100-500) to verify all systems work correctly, then scale up gradually as you gain confidence and experience with the platform.

**Profit management:** Withdraw profits regularly to secure gains, avoid letting large amounts accumulate in the trading wallet, and transfer profits to your personal wallet for long-term security.

**Safety:** Always verify wallet addresses using copy-paste to prevent errors, ensure you're using the correct network (Arbitrum), save all transaction hashes for record-keeping, and remember that using the wrong network may result in lost funds.

## Getting Started

**Quick start:**

1. Connect login wallet (with QE tokens for future discounts)
2. Agent wallet created automatically
3. Copy agent wallet address
4. Send USDC to agent wallet
5. Bridge to Hyperliquid if needed
6. Start trading!

* Private keys
