Introducing Mode Trade Terminal

Overview

Mode is a blockchain network focused on simplifying access to decentralized finance. Built on the Optimism Superchain, Mode is structured to reduce gas fees and improve transaction speeds across financial applications. One of the core products in the Mode ecosystem is the Mode Trade Terminal, a browser-based tool that allows users to trade onchain without relying on centralized exchanges.

This guide outlines how the terminal works, how to begin using it, and how to participate in the referral program to earn passive income through affiliate commissions.

What is the Mode Trade Terminal?

The Mode Trade Terminal is an onchain trading interface

https://trade.mode.network

It supports both spot and perpetual markets. Users can view live price charts, submit limit and market orders, monitor open positions, and manage margin. The platform is built for users who want to retain custody of their funds while trading directly on the blockchain.

Trades are executed via smart contracts, and users confirm each step from their connected wallet.

Requirements

Before using the terminal, users will need:

• A supported Web3 wallet (e.g., MetaMask, Rabby)

• The Mode network added to their wallet

• ETH or USDC bridged to Mode for trading and gas

There is no account registration required. Access to the terminal is open to anyone with a Mode-compatible wallet.

Key Features

Trading Pairs and Order Types

Users can choose from multiple trading pairs, including major assets like ETH and BTC. The platform supports:

• Spot trades, where users buy or sell assets directly

• Perpetual contracts, which allow leveraged long or short positions

Orders can be placed as:

• Market orders, which execute immediately at the current available price

• Limit orders, which execute only when the market reaches a specified price

All trades are signed and confirmed onchain.

Position Management

After submitting a trade, users can monitor it in the "Positions" tab, which displays:

• Entry price

• Size

• Current unrealized profit/loss

• Liquidation price (for leveraged positions)

The terminal also includes a complete history of previous trades.

Asset Management

Users can deposit and withdraw funds directly within the terminal:

• Deposited funds are used as margin for leveraged trading

• Remaining balance can be withdrawn at any time, unless locked in an active position

Step-by-Step: Using the Terminal

Step 1: Connect Wallet

Visit https://trade.mode.network and select “Connect Wallet.” Choose your preferred wallet and switch the network to Mode.

Step 2: Select a Market

Use the dropdown to select the market you want to trade (e.g., ETH/USDC).

Step 3: Place an Order

Choose between Market and Limit. Enter your trade size, and if using a perpetual contract, adjust your leverage. Review the order details before confirming.

Step 4: Confirm in Wallet

The terminal will generate the transaction. You must review and approve it in your wallet before the trade is submitted.

Step 5: Monitor or Close Your Position

Open trades can be closed manually at any time. Real-time PnL and liquidation risks are shown directly in the dashboard.

Affiliate and Referral Program

The Mode Trade Terminal includes an affiliate program designed for users who want to onboard other traders and earn passive income.

Affiliate Commission

Affiliates can earn between 40% and 60% commission based on the trading activity of users they refer. Commissions are distributed based on trade volume and are tracked directly in the referral dashboard.

• Minimum commission: 40%

• Potential increase based on performance and volume

Rebates for Referred Traders

If you onboard traders using a referral code, they may receive a rebate between 0% and 20%, depending on the program’s configuration at the time.

To participate:

1. Generate your affiliate link within the Trade Terminal dashboard

2. Share the link with your audience

3. Track your commissions and referrals in real time

Traders you onboard must enter your referral code or use your link before making their first trade to be counted under your account.

How to Become an Affiliate

Becoming an affiliate is straightforward:

• Connect your wallet at https://trade.mode.network

• Navigate to the referral or affiliate section

• Generate your unique affiliate link

• Share the link with your network, content, or community

Once referrals begin trading, you will see commissions accumulate automatically. Payouts follow the terms listed in the affiliate section of the terminal.

Summary
