Trading via Etherscan

Last updated
Pika Protocol is a fully decentralized and permission-less exchange, operated not by team, but by unstoppable code. In the rare case when the website server is down, you can always trade directly with the smart contract from block explorers like Etherscan.
If you have previously approved the contract in Pika UI, you can skip this step.
To approve the contract, you first open the USDC contract on Etherscan:
Then clicks Connect to Web to connect to your Metamask wallet.
You need to click the Approve function 4 times to approve these 4 addresses:
PikaPerpV4 address: 0x9b86B2Be8eDB2958089E522Fe0eB7dD5935975AB
PositionManager address: 0xb67c152e69217b5acb85a2e19df13423351b0e27
OrderBook address: 0x835a179a9E1A57f15823eFc82bC460Eb2D9d2E7C
PositionRouter address: 0xa78Cd820b198A943199deb0506E77d655b5078cC
The amount is your intended trade amount. If you want to trade 100 USDC, the input amount should be 10000000000(100*1e8).
You need to open the PikaPerpV4 contract: and call setAccountManager twice to enable the trading for market, limit and stop orders:
Call setAccountManager function by setting _manager as the PositionManager contract address(0xb67c152e69217b5acb85a2e19df13423351b0e27) and _isActive is true.
Call the setAccountManager function by setting _manager as the OrderBook contract address(0x835a179a9E1A57f15823eFc82bC460Eb2D9d2E7C) and _isActive is true.
