All trading commands require authentication. See Configuration.

Placing Orders

`hlz buy <COIN> <SIZE> [@PRICE]`

# Market buy (executes immediately at best available price)
hlz buy BTC 0.1
 
# Limit buy at $50,000
hlz buy BTC 0.1 @50000
 
# With take-profit and stop-loss
hlz buy BTC 0.1 @50000 --tp 55000 --sl 48000
 
# Reduce-only order
hlz sell BTC 0.1 --reduce-only
 
# Maker-only (post-only)
hlz buy ETH 1.0 @3500 --tif alo

Spot Orders

Use BASE/QUOTE syntax for spot markets:

hlz buy PURR/USDC 100 @0.065     # Limit buy 100 PURR
hlz sell HYPE/USDC 1.0            # Market sell HYPE
hlz buy HPL/USDH 0.5 @500        # Buy on non-USDC pair

Spot pairs are resolved via the spot universe. Transfer USDC to spot balance first with hlz send <AMT> USDC --to spot.

`hlz sell <COIN> <SIZE> [@PRICE]`

Same syntax as buy, but sells.

hlz sell ETH 1.0 @3500     # Limit sell
hlz sell SOL 10             # Market sell

Trigger Orders

# Take-profit trigger at $55,000
hlz sell BTC 0.1 --trigger-above 55000
 
# Stop-loss trigger at $48,000
hlz sell BTC 0.1 --trigger-below 48000

Dry Run

Preview any order without submitting:

hlz buy BTC 0.1 @50000 --dry-run
# Shows the signed order payload without sending

Managing Orders

`hlz cancel <COIN> [OID]`

hlz cancel BTC 12345        # Cancel specific order
hlz cancel BTC              # Cancel all BTC orders
hlz cancel --all            # Cancel all open orders

`hlz modify <COIN> <OID> <SIZE> <PRICE>`

hlz modify BTC 12345 0.2 51000    # Change size and price

Leverage

`hlz leverage <COIN> [N]`

hlz leverage BTC             # Query current leverage
hlz leverage BTC 10          # Set to 10x

Advanced

`hlz twap <COIN> buy|sell <SIZE> --duration <TIME> --slices <N>`

Time-weighted average price execution. Splits a large order into smaller slices.

hlz twap BTC buy 1.0 --duration 1h --slices 10
# Places 0.1 BTC buy every 6 minutes for 1 hour

`hlz batch "order1" "order2" ...`

Execute multiple orders atomically.

hlz batch "buy BTC 0.1 @98000" "sell ETH 1.0 @3500"
 
# From stdin (useful for scripts)
echo "buy BTC 0.1 @98000
sell ETH 1.0 @3500" | hlz batch --stdin
