Joining the Game

Getting started with PerpCord is simple. Use the /perp join command in any channel where the bot is active. 
/perp join
When you join, you’ll receive 10,000 coins to start trading. This is your paper trading balance - no real money is involved!
You must accept the PerpCord terms first. The bot requires the terms-accepted Discord role before you can /perp join — without it you’ll get an ephemeral error. Look for the terms-acceptance prompt in the server.
If you’ve played before, /perp join will show your current stats instead of creating a new account. After a monthly season reset, you’ll need to /perp join again to be included in the new season.

​
Game Rounds

PerpCord runs quick ~10 minute rounds for action-packed trading. New rounds start automatically back-to-back, so there’s always a game to play!

​
Your First Trade

Once you’ve joined, you’re ready to place your first trade. Here’s how:

​
Step 1: Check the Current Round

Use /perp status to see if there’s an active trading round: 
/perp status
This shows you:
  • The current token being traded
  • The entry price at round start
  • Current price and price change
  • Time remaining in the round
  • Whether trading is open or closed

​
Step 2: Decide Your Position

Before trading, decide:
  • LONG - You think the price will go UP
  • SHORT - You think the price will go DOWN

​
Step 3: Place Your Trade

Use the /perp trade command: 
/perp trade direction:LONG leverage:10 size:1000
Parameters:
  • direction - LONG or SHORT
  • leverage - 🐢 3× (chill), 🚀 10× (normal), ⚔️ 100× (risky), or 💣 250× (YOLO)
  • size - How many coins to risk (must be less than your balance)
You can only place one trade per round. Choose wisely!

​
Step 4: Wait for Settlement

When the round ends, the bot automatically:
  1. Fetches the final price
  2. Calculates your profit or loss
  3. Updates your balance
  4. Announces the results

​
