Leverage is a lever.
You still hold the handle.
Torque puts token discovery, position sizing, risk limits and wallet confirmation into one workspace onRobinhood Chain. Nothing settles until you sign it.
Your first trade
From token selection to wallet approval in five steps.
- 01
Connect your wallet
Choose Connect wallet and switch to Robinhood Chain when prompted. Torque never holds your keys.
- 02
Choose a market
Search by symbol, name or contract. Use the address chip beside the symbol to copy and verify the token.
- 03
Set collateral and leverage
Enter the WETH you want to commit and drag the leverage slider. The ticket recalculates size, entry and liquidation live.
- 04
Review the order
Check position size, borrowed amount, tokens received, estimated fee, borrow APR and the liquidation level.
- 05
Approve in your wallet
Torque prepares the transaction. Nothing is submitted until you approve it.
Long and short
Pick a direction based on where you expect the token to go.
Long
A long gains as the token rises and loses as it falls. Your WETH is the collateral; the pool finances the rest of the purchase and charges borrow interest until you close.
Short
A short is built to gain as the token falls. Availability is per-market and shown directly in the order ticket — markets without shorts render the toggle disabled.
Risk and liquidation
Leverage magnifies both directions. Know these four numbers before every trade.
Liquidation price
Shown as ETH per token. Torque derives it from the loan's current debt, your token balance and the 92.5% liquidation LTV — the same inputs the liquidation check uses. Accrued interest pushes the level toward you over time.
Minimum equity
Also called maintenance margin. 7.5% of the position must remain your equity. Below that, the position is eligible for liquidation and the collateral is lost.
Borrow APR
49% annualised on the borrowed portion only. Interest accrues by the second while the position is open, so the repayment grows the longer you hold.
Trading fees
0.85% on open and 0.85% on close, charged on position size. Network gas and borrow interest are separate line items.
A simple rule
Lower the leverage when volatility is high, and leave real distance between the mark and your liquidation price. A 5x long on a token that moves 40% a day is a coin flip with extra steps.
Managing positions
Monitor exposure and close when the thesis changes.
Track
The Positions page shows size, entry, mark, debt, liquidation price, health and live PnL for every open loan.
Close
Review close breaks out tokens sold, debt repaid, accrued interest, close fee and what actually lands back in your wallet.
Recover
If a transaction is delayed, return later — Torque reconciles submitted transactions and settles their final status.
Lending WETH
Supply the pool from your wallet and receive tETH shares.
Deposit
Open Earn, enter an amount and review the estimated tETH. Deposits price at a slightly higher share price than redemptions, which protects sitting lenders from dilution.
Earn
Lenders keep 70% of realised borrowing interest. Share value moves only when results settle on-chain — the APY figure is derived from live utilisation, not advertised.
Withdraw
Redemptions are served from liquid assets. A 30% liquidity buffer is withheld from borrowers so exits stay servable at typical utilisation.
Pool risk
Returns are variable and lender capital can take losses once the protocol-funded first-loss reserve is exhausted. Utilisation above the buffer will queue withdrawals until borrowers repay.
Wallet and network
You stay in control of every approval.

Your wallet
Torque never submits a trade from the chart, a shared link or an automation. Anything can prepare an order, but the review screen and the wallet signature stay mandatory.
Frequently asked questions
It is the maintenance margin — the minimum share of the position that must remain your equity. Torque uses 7.5%, which corresponds to a 92.5% liquidation LTV. Once debt divided by position value reaches that line, the position becomes eligible for liquidation.
