  A list of all tradable Perp contracts on QuantHive, each paired with:
  * Alpha Traders' flow signals:
    * WAGMI (Buy) — Strong buy-side activity from high-performing wallets.
    * FUD (Sell) — Sell signals based on consistent outflows or negative sentiment.
    * HODL (Hold) — Low volatility or neutral behavior; suggests a wait-and-see approach.
  * Alpha Trader Metrics: Shows how many top 2% on-chain traders have interacted with the token, the total volume accumulated or sold by them, the token’s **TPI (Traders' Profitability Index) score**, and **momentum indicator.**
  * Market snapshot for fast decision-making.

{% hint style="success" %}
**TPI (Traders' Profitability Index):**\
A measure of alpha traders' buy vs. sell volume. It reflects how strongly consistently profitable wallets are accumulating a token. A higher TPI indicates stronger buy-side conviction from top traders.

**Momentum:**\
A measure of alpha traders' short-term vs. long-term volume. Rising momentum means alpha traders are getting increasingly interested in the token and hype is growing, often signaling early trend formation.

Leverage options allow you to **amplify your position size**, increasing both your profit potential and risk exposure.
